Hi Arthur, As you can see many things aren't what they seem. :-) AllSportsMarket is unlike sport betting or buying a lottery ticket for that matter. When there is sufficient information provided and there is no deliberate atempt to adjust the outcome of a payout then one can make a more informed decision to participate. I think if you looked at the content and information provided in the company website as well as media releases you may form a different opinion than your initial observation. Don't get me wrong, I believe people can make their own decision to gamble. I buy lottery tickets all the time but I know the odds are stacked against me. I apreciate the post.

Well Arthur, I tend to agree with your point, plus I've got some others that I could make. I will say that after looking at Jack's profile and web site that he has investments to sell -- I've seen this technicque so many times, it's not even funny -- you get a naysayer that has an agenda,and attacks the credibilioty of another to seek some advantage. Ironically, this exact behavior is what I see frequently in autosurf forums!! Maybe the forum owner will do the right thing and moderate, Jack's comments toward my post were directed at me personally and were insulting and unecessary -- he made a lot unfounded assertions and I don't think he really knows what he's talking about.

Hi Greer: Great to see you posting here. It's always nice to have a new face join us and another opinion to toss into the conversations. I don't know if you've read the paypal randomizer thread, but that thread is a perfect example of how a conversation can get very involved - a wee bit heated - but end up being hugely helpful to many. I believe we saved 106 paypal accounts from shutdown, especially since the program owner himself was the one that drew Paypal's attention to his "plan." =========================================== Maybe the forum owner will do the right thing and moderate, Jack's comments toward my post were directed at me personally and were insulting and unecessary.. =========================================== I read and re-read Jack's post a few times. I did note that he said "These auto-surfing programs are not an investment. In fact there is huge number of opportunities promoted in this community as an investment and they are totally misleading... I didn't see anything that was a direct insult to you, or I would most certainly have deleted that immediately. I do hear him strongly objecting to autosurf - but not to you directly. If I hate apples and you love them, that doesn't mean I hate you or criticize you when I say apples are icky. Just that I hate apples. Same concept. One of the steadfast rules of this forum is that we can debate issues to our heart's content, but we may not insult people directly by name or use name-calling. We did have one member that tried posting things like "(name) - with you as a friend, who needs enemies?" and "(name) - get a life" -- those sorts of things I delete immediately. At Adland, forum owners don't have the ability to "edit" anyone's posts but their own. While that's inconvenient at times, I can also see why. I know of some people that would only be too happy to put "words" in other people's mouths. C'est la vie. I do hope you don't see Jack's posts - or this one either - as an attack on you. I don't believe there is any intention that way at all. But a lively debate - that's another thing - and usually leads to learning and growth. Hope to see you posting more here. People with strong opinions are very welcome. lol It's a "like attracts like" thing. : ) Linda P.S. Incidentally, you and Jack may BOTH enjoy this post. I'd certainly love to hear your thoughts on it. It's basically the FCCs take on the subject Jack addressed; http://community.adlandpro.com/forumShowPost.aspx?PostID=197171

Hi Greer, It appears my opinion may have been taken out of context. I will say that after looking at Jack's profile and web site that he has investments to sell -- You are correct. I have investments to sell. I also buy investments. In fact people pay me money to find out what I am trading. I do research and provide an opinion. I don't tell them to buy or sell any particular stock. You can read the disclaimer on my website. I've seen this technicque so many times, it's not even funny -- you get a naysayer that has an agenda,and attacks the credibilioty of another to seek some advantage. Ironically, this exact behavior is what I see frequently in autosurf forums!! You are correct on the technique and as you say it happens all the time. Buyer Beware! However, I was addressing the auto-surf program and certainly not your credibility. Jack's comments toward my post were directed at me personally and were insulting and unecessary This is about as far away from the truth as you can get. I will apologize since you feel this way. Greer, please accept my apology for not clearly stating my opinion about Auto-Surf program. By no means should my post be taken as a personal attack against you or anyone else who use Auto-Surf programs. I appreciate your feedback. In my world a complaint is a source of quality.

thank you for clarifying Jack, and thank you also Linda -- I don't have time to read all the forums, just I'm interested in autosurf right now.
