Hi everyone,
First off I want to thank everyone for their wonderful posts. I have just recently (within the last week) gotten into paid surveys. I came across Katie's Hugs through a web page that derauded scams. Ya'll have some wonderful advice here. I have signed up with several, and I mean several of Connie's and Katie's (if they are different people), suggestions. Right now I am getting quite a few surveys for sweepstakes only, but I do know from reading this message board that this could just be preliminary's while they are finding which surveyors are serious. So I will stick with it.
My question is this: I have read on a few threads about Pinecone, yet the only way I can join is find a banner or have someone refer me. Is this correct? and if so, where are the best places to find the banners?
Thanks again to all who contribute their time and efforts to keeping this website up.
Kristy

Thanks for replying. I've been on that website several times today, I thought that was what the post was referring to. Unfortunately I have not been lucky enough to see it. I keep refreshing as you said to, but no luck yet.
Do I need to be in the survey site of that page or just the main page itself?

Oh I guess I need to add, if I need to be a member of Volition in order to see this banner?

Hi Kristy...you don't need to be Volition member to see the banner. You might want to play a few rounds of hangman while you're there. I hear that is the way to see the banner and have some fun while you're waiting for it.

I hear that is the way to see the banner and have some fun while you're waiting for it. I never thought of that! Much more fun than refreshing.. I just tried it and it came up in my third game... I lost one game

It doesn't pop up so that shouldn't have an effect. If you are playing hangman just watch the banner right below the game that changes everytime you pick a letter. You probably already know this but just to make sure!

I must not be seeing the same thing you are, or maybe I just don't understand what a banner is

all I did was go to the front page the A-G mystery shopping page, and it was up there in the top right hand corner. I had left the puter on my coffee table and just gotten a plate of food for lunch. It had loaded and i saw the ad. It changed twice before it dawned on me what it was!! I almost spilled everything I had! LOL I was scared I was gona miss it!

Kristy.. what are you using for a browser? A banner is a sign type ad.. at the site.. it changes everytime you enter a letter and you see a new ad. I wonder if your browser is blocking the ads?

hi connie,
I'm using internet explorer. I think that is what is happening, because I see no ads. I've tried several different things 1) switched to netscape 2) enabled active x 3) basically played with all the controls to try and figure out how to allow ads
anyway, no luck and i'm tired of playing with it. I may go back one more time and see. I'm kinda thinking it has something to do with my norton firewall. I might try and turn that off for a bit.

Okie dokie. I FINALLY figured out how to see the ads...but just my luck after playing hangman and refreshing the screen for 15 minutes, no luck...i didn't not see the banner. I may have missed it already. I will try again later.
Thanks to all of you who were pulling their hair out trying to help me. I am sure I will see again one day.
Thanks again!!! Kristy
