From your stories, it seems that this forum has a lot of contests with decent prizes. I hope I will have the time to browse around the forum. I'm still having a hard time to try to catch up with postings in 6 forums now. Wish I can make posts a lot faster.
There are many contests running there which will fetch u a lot of prizes only if you are active.Quote:

There are other daily based contests which do not require much time but can fetch you good prizes :)
One of the links in the email I received from GoldAge is "Were you inactive for 3 months or more? You can win a prize for coming back!" and when I clicked the link, I saw the "$5 For Becoming Premium Member & $3 For Referrers" contest. Is it the same contest? And I joined GoldAge a few months ago. I can't remember when, but I think it's way more than 3 months ago. And I think I have less than 20 posts, but I cannot confirm it, because I can't log in yet, the forum loads so slow and now I can't access it.
What should I do in this contest exactly? After I post my request in the contest's thread, I have to be a premium member, which means I have to make 120 posts. After I make 120 posts and my reputation is still 10, I don't have to wait 1 month to become a premium member, right? So, basically, to get that contest, I have to post my request, and then make 120 posts (and maintain that 10 reputation) and then make a post again there after I become a premium member. Am I right?
Well you are correct first after you log in site put your request in premium members thread and wait till admin replay after admin add your name in and after that you can start posting you need to keep one month activity and post minimum 120 post and after you complete one month you will become premium member....... that's it after this you will get paid from admin.Quote:

Thanks for the explanation, guys. I made a request to join that contest and BigMumu has already added me to the list. I have way less than 20 posts although I already joined that forum a few months ago, LOL :P Btw, about that 1 month requirement, does that mean I have to wait 1 month after my username is added to that list or 1 month after I have made 120 posts?
Premium membership is obtained if you stay in the forum after 1 month from the time you join the forum :)Quote:

One more thing is the inactivity is for more than three months then you can participate in the Best new members and returning member contest as well.
You mean this contest here: http://goldage.net/forum/showthread.php?t=68445 ?Quote:

Wow thats a long time since you have been in the forum :)Quote:

And 30 posts in the eligibility criteria at the end of the month.
If someone is making more posts than you and is a returning member he will win it ;)
And btw as you are already active you have only one week to win it :p ... and as far as i know there aren't many competitors but be more active to have more chances of winning :)
So, it's like throwing 2 birds with one stone, right? I can try and make those 30 posts on my way to reach my 120 posts :lol: And I can make my posts in any section of the forum unless those which are only premium members and exchangers, right? I will be on it as soon as I finish my job 8) Wish me luck :PQuote:

Yes, you can make posts in any section, but I really can't understand why you will be out if someone makes more than your posts. Actually, as far as I know, all members who participate in the "5$ for becoming premium members" will be paid after they become premium members.Quote:

BTW. I wish you best of luck.
Thanks. How many contests are there anyway? I saw in the contests section, there are so many, but some of them have Pending labels. I got some reading task to do here, LOL :P Btw, I find that I often cannot access this forum (GoldAge). Is it just my connection or it usually happens?Quote:

The contests will be open for more than a day so that all the members get a fair chance in winning it :)
yea i guess it was a cookie problem..im working with firefox and its loading fast now...anways gmaxxx has also opened his contest..last date is 29th
i don't know if the admin will do some changes in rules about the referral incentives. anyways, it is not easy and it will end soon in february i think and so there is no time for me to earn from referrals.
what are you talking about?surely not about goldage?Quote:
