Free Ipod!

[NightNinja]

FREE IPOD

MPC had a HUGE bandwidth sore this month almost doubling the previous month! This caused the price of our hosting to double! With our new hosting offer for coders, it's getting extremely expensive to host this. To gaurantee we can afford this i've signed up for a free ipod deal. This will get us enough money to get us jump started (since i'll be selling it on ebay). So please read this thread and sign up! DOWNLOADS WILL BE OFFLINE UNTIL WE HAVE THE MONEY TO PAY FOR THIS NEW HOSTING SO PLEASE SIGN UP, IT'S FREE

Ok, if you are like me you have heard so much about the FreeIpods and FreeFlatScreens websites on different forums, blogs, IM's, etc, you are about to puke. So am I. But yet the draw of getting an Ipod for doing basically nothing is pretty strong. I dismissed all the "stories" of people getting their ipods as the marketing machine at work. However, when Kevin Rose published that not only did he receive his, but a few of his friends did as well, I figured I might take a chance and give it a go.

So you figure...
Whats in it for them?
Step 1. Collect Names.
Step 2. Send those names items worth $200 or more
Step 3. ??????
Step 4. Profit

Before I signed up, I went to many websites to find out what the ????? was. I didn't want any sweaty, filth pushing webmonkeys to have all my info, so I did my research. Gratis Internet, the parent company of the FreeIpods, FreeFlatscreens, etc. sites, recently did an interview with Wired Magazine.
In this article Gratis states that they are acting as Head Hunters for companies (more on that later) and are paid between $50-$90 per referral. Although this seems like a lot of money, this is nothing compared to what these companies spend for print advertising which does not guarentee ANY customers. So now we know what ?????? equals. ??????=$50-$90 for Gratis per guranteed customer (referral sites).

Ok, so here is the tricky part. Once you sign up with one of these websites you have to complete an "offer" from 1 of Gratis's advertisors. There are usually 5-10 different offers, some being better than others. Now, remember the ???????=$50-$90 equation? In order for you to receive your ipod/Flatscreen/Desktop PC/Handbag you have to refer 5, 8, or 10 of your friends, and they have to complete one of the offers as well. Then in order for them to receive theirs they need to refer others, and son on. So lets just look at why they are going to send an Ipod to you. (1(you) +5(your friends))x$90=$540-$250(ipod)=$290 profit for them just for you signing up. The advertisers are more than willing to pay, and FreeIpods is more than happy to send you your ipod. Works out for everyone.

What process should you use to sign up (to ensure that you will get your item)
When signing up, it is recommended that you use Internet Explorer (sucks) some people have reported problems using other browsers.
1. Click on one of the links above and enter a VALID US mailing address.
2. Complete the marketing survey - not your answers do not have any impact on you receiving your item.
3. Once you have signed up, you should receive a verification email. If you did not receive one, go to the "My Account" page and click the link to have them resend it. If you still did not get it check your spam folder.
4. Sign-up with one of their partners and complete the offer. (see the section which offer should I choose) It can take up to 15 days for your offer to show completed (unless you follow my steps!) =)

Which offer should I choose?
Just so you know all offers require a credit card, **HOWEVER** not all of them cost anything! =)
* InFone: This requires a credit card but is FREE. *INSTANT VERIFICATION*
* AOL /w MusicNet: Sign up for their 45 day free trial. If you cancel before 45 days you are not charged anything.
* Ancestry.com: Try a free 30 day trial of Ancestry.com's "Find your Ancestors" service.
* Blockbuster Online: Try a two week trial of Blockbuster's Netflix-like service.
* Video Professor: This costs $7. *INSTANT VERIFICATION*

I suggest you go with the Infone offer. It is free, and you get instant verification. Next I would suggest Blockbuster because you not only get the 2 week trial (like netflix) but you also get 2 coupon codes for free rentals at your local blockbuster. Just make sure to if you don't like the service to cancel before 2 weeks is up and it is free.

So here is where I am asking for your help. In order to find out if this is legit, please help me out by clicking the link on top (or this) and completing the offer (Choose InFone!!). As a thank you gift, everyone who is successfully verfied (meaning you completed the offer) will receive Donator priveldges on the new MPCDownloads (set to debut in february) to the email address that is used during signup.

there down until they get a ipod that they can sell to pay for bandwith

I'm sorry about hearing that the Price doubled..I know what it is like running a website it can be fun but a pain in arse sometimes.. You are running a good website, and it has been the only site that I have everseen with so many Hacks for games...."especially Maplestory" lol... I make alot of my own trainers but sometimes I get lazy because they keep uploading so many new patches on Maplestory...So that's why I like to be able to just download your hacks because it's a whole lot easier sometimes...Once again I'm sorry about the price doubling on you and I am looking forward to downloading your awesome hacks again once again....

so don't click the link... :P

any ways ... unless you guys wanna donate money stop complaining

I'm new here, but I'm an MPC follower since months.

This totally sucks.

I mean, I know it's not so easy to run a site, but I can't be forced to sign up on something, etll 'em who I am, where I live, what do I think and then get nothing.

If you want you can call me on MSN (evilmc@email.it), give me links to some of your ads and tell me to click on 'em 100 times. I'll do it. With a browser with the tabbed browsing it'll take some minutes.

And I think I'm not the only one who can do this. That's a cool site, it has a lot of people watching it. If ten of us wants to, we can do it. A thousand clicks. Even more with twenty people. I'll tell my friends about this. We could reach fifty people. Even more.

It won't be much? We could do it every month. I could.

So why forcing all those poor cheaters ( ) to sign up instead of making them clicking for 5 minutes?
