    I stopped filling in the forms right after the first page. There had to be catch, and it seems I was right ;P

        how true, how true... almost anyone can have me for the right price to my boss... I'd say that qualifies as the pimp concept.

                  It told me I'm worth half what I make being self-employed. I work twice as hard being self-employed but am 4 times happier than when I was an employer. My employer was 1/2 as happy after I left as before. My wife is twice as happy I'm home now. I'm happy I now have time to go work out and exercise. So I guess... I'm not worth as much as I want to be. Having a job sucks. There's no price you could put on a family. That's a stupid site anyways now I'm just confused.:-D

                    A girl asked me to be Napoleon once. I found out there's only so many things you can do when one hand is tucked inside your tunic. (And that hat was stupid!)

                        Because then you would leave immediately. This way, you have already made an investment in time and are more likely to sign up. It's by design.

                                  Are you related to that idiot with whom I was exchanging barbs in the soapbox? I was throwing barbs, he was using Indianglish to respond, and that just made him look like a freak. If you're the same person, you look even more like an idiot for logging in with a different ID to post exactly the same thing.

                                      Are you related to that idiot with whom I was exchanging barbs in the soapbox? I was throwing barbs, he was using Indianglish to respond, and that just made him look like a freak. If you're the same person, you look even more like an idiot for logging in with a different ID to post exactly the same thing.

                                        Go through all the forms, then reach the "Free / Paid for"...uh-oh...after filling in all those forms, I'm sure as hell not gonna bother creating an account! WHY OH WHY can't they say at the start that you'll need to create an account, rahter than waiting till the last min! Bluddy web devs ;)

                                        you didn't see that coming? How many times have you plowed through all of the advertising web pages in the hope of a free XBox? :)

                                          Because then you would leave immediately. This way, you have already made an investment in time and are more likely to sign up. It's by design.

                                          But I might be tempted to go back at a later point when I have more time - the likelihood of me EVER returning to that site is, well, nil. If there was a warning, then I'd be tempted to bookmark and no doubt stumble upon it later. To me this way of doing things is pretty much just blatant information harvesting. But then I guess that's how some people make their money...all power to em, but they're guaranteed to annoy me if they do it...it's their call hehe!
