HI, i started using slashmysearch recently. I have made alomst 15 dollars, but is hasn,t been working for some days? does anyone know if it,s just a technical problem or is it just because they are in BETA mode. I don,t know, but I feel very skeptical since payments are first in 2 months. Nobody has been paid, and I have also read in here that the owner might be a conman, so I feel like a ? about the whole thing. What are your thoughts about SMS? have anyone who is a member also been having issues when logging in and searching?

Hi! I got into SlashMySearch just a few minutes ago, and it appears that they had a technical problem that took a while to resolve due to the US weekend holiday(?). Anyway, I was happy already, but when I was posting my reply in the forum, It was gone again. Well, they can't blame us if we talk about it. However, I don't think it is cause for panic - or sending people to panic! Let's keep tabs.

At the risk of being off-topic, I want to say "Thank you, tomfade"! It feels really good and I want you to know it is much appreciated.
Cheers!

hello tomfade. i tried to join this site but i got skeptical about the earning system especially on the fact that it takes two months before we actually get paid. I can't seem to understand too where they really get the money to pay us.now that you said slashmysearch is not working, am more doubtful whether it is legit.

I know, it seems to good to be true. WHere do they get the money, because my earnings has really gotten up easy compared to most sites including my lot. Something smells fishy. I have to admit that, but it could aslo be because of the beta testing. I don,t know. But I not going to give my ref link to anyone here until I know what is up. That,s not fair, I admit boosting the site on mylot this past week, because I really got into the site. But I not sure anymore, but luckily non of us has really worked at SMS because you just use it as a search engine, so it,s not a big loss if it turn out to be bull....

Yes, until now it is not accessible. I hope the search engine does not do anything to our software or whatever. Of course, to give them the benefit of the doubt, I still hope there is just a bug or they are in beta. I feel bad about the people who rooted out for them,defending them "against all odds".

this site returned back today
i recently joined it but so early to judge except when you reach the minimum $50 and see if they will pay or not?

I have checked it out. Now a days, there are so many scams, you dont know what is real and what is not real.

Just joined yesterday, and I was feeling upbeat by what I had achieved so far, with no costs for joining and progress clearly shown. However, this morning, my SlashMySearch homepage does not load anymore. I thought my system has been corrupted. I agree that let's not put too much time on it for now.
