Now that you've seen BzzPerks...

... I'm interested in knowing if your Bzz will be affected once you've had a chance to read all the info and see if the points transfer went smoothly. I realize it may take a couple of days for everyone to be able to answer, but I wanted to put this out there.

If the rumors about a report being worth 55 my points prove true, I won't be happy.

I'm just waiting a/c I don't understand these things first off anyway.

I plan to plug away at it..although how they tier everyone is frustrating me..I can't understand it..

I'll just keep going along as I have been.
Like arny I'm still a little confused .

Changes look fine to me so far. I am not going to change how I do anything.
It does look like the top level buzz reports are worth only 55 mypoints.

yeah... but I can live with that riko... I have no issues with it

I will be doing the same as i always have. just going to forget about the abysmal and insulting rewards system.

I stated back in May that I would probably be packing BzzAgent in and that still stands ....... now trying to figure out how the he double hockey sticks I can boost my pending MyPITS total so that I can get 2 $25 gc.ca thingies ..... maybe then I won't feel quite so violated after having been bent over and shafted!

Okay, I checked back to see if I could clear up some stuff about my level. I am level 5 with two honeycombs to go to get to level 6. In checking my statue, it says that I am up to date. So, the three reports I have left on the nuts campaign, will they make a difference right now? Should I wait to submit them? I am sorry if you explained some of this to me earlier but with me doing my frogs this morning and submitting a report, I was able to form some reasonable questions finally.

pearly.. I wouldn't wait. I would go ahead and submit them. I put in three reports today. Once they are read they should convert to points pretty quickly..or at least, I believe so!

I put in one report each on my current campaigns.

The only thing that I can see myself doing differently is doing 3 frogpond polls a month now. The frogpond does not apply to Canadians but i most likely will do 3 polls a month to get a honeycomb. I don't get very many bzz campaigns anyways.

I'm with you sweetheart...do you think we should just sit over here in the corner till Joe clarifies some things?

I'm gonna keep pluggin away as I have.

It's going to look awfully funny if we actually start wading into the swamp and our comments are something like, "this doesn't apply to me, I'm just here because I have to be."

I do the Frogpond. Pretty much every frog ...
I often give a negative feedback. Some of the sites are pathetic.
I say so. I get my point, and now and then I do find a rose among the thorns....

I will probably do the three frogs a month, but no more.
I will bzz normally.
I will report minimally, seeing as there's not much benefit to doing the extra work.

I'll keep on keeping on. I'm actually happy they have rewards with MyPoints now -- I've been a member there for a long time. I was never able to get any rewards with the old system anyway. My points just sat there, for the most part. I think I finally was able a couple of times to get a spatula and a pair of shears! And that was it! The rewards system badly needed overhauling. The only thing that annoys me is the way they have the points pending on MyPoints -- I did write to them about it and they told me it was "just the way MyPoints works." Well, that's not true. MyPoints has plenty of offers that I click on all the time and things I participate in (like the credit card) where my points aren't pending at all when they are awarded. And of course when they first transferred our points to MyPoints, those points weren't set to pending for a month, either. So they could easily set it up so that our points don't sit there pending for a month.

Anyway, I actually like the new levels better than the old and I love the way I no longer get bounced backwards every time I accept a new campaign (although I haven't had an opportunity to accept a new one yet!).

The Womlets are mostly useless, as far as I can see. I'm not sure why they just keep stubbornly insisting that people "misunderstand" them. I don't think anyone has misunderstood them at all. People can look at them and see exactly what they are and know exactly what's going on with them. That's the problem. They know immediately that they are a marketing ploy. Of course no one has to click on them if they don't want to but it is annoying and, yes, insulting when they are offered up as some kind of "reward" when they are obviously an attempt to make sales. They are nothing more nor less than exactly what MyPoints themselves do only MyPoints actually gives you points when you do a clickthrough on those kinds of sites. LOL!

I've never seen Bzz Perks what are they like?

BzzPerks is the current BzzAgent reward system of getting MyPoints, honeycombs, etc.

They used to have a system that ranked you based on the number and quality of your reports per campaign, and they used to provide their own rewards, rather than going through MyPoints. The rewards were better in that you got a more valuable item with fewer reports, but they were always out of stock.

I never get anything

How long have you been a member? And did you make sure to sign up for MyPoints as well?

been a member for a bout a month now and am one step from busy bee ive been doing bzzscape projects ut no campaigns

bzz scapes don't really help you out, not for the amount of work you have to do for them and they help bzz to not have to do campaigns..
