I just need 2 more people to sign up and complete the offer!
if you want one all you have to do is get 5 of your friends to complete an offer after you complete one of the offers
completing an offer takes less than 5 minutes!
this is a really good deal if you actually do it correctly!

ill pass, but it sounds like a pyramid scheme.....
:?
it is a pyramid scheme
but this is alot more reliable because its from reliable company with associates like aol and real.com and ancestry.com
the way they make their money is because not everyone who signs up gets people to join cuz they give up but im not going to give up so ill still get the ipod
Hmm let me think....I give you my e-mail address for you to use on freeipods.com. So ehat you're saying is that you will benifit from my e-mail address by getting a ipod (or so it says, cheap as scheme) and I get a shit load of spam? Hahahahaha you gotta be kidding me. I'll pass.
no spam read the privacy policy
ive been signed up for 3 weeks .... no spam yet besides the account confirmation email
im not sure if you realize how much money they make for each person they get reffered but it is in their favor because they realize that not everyone who signs up will get 5 other people to completely sign up
I've done it before and still say no.
come on guys pleaseeeeeeeeeee
don't beg :?Quote:

Im not really too sure about this... but ill give mah email ONLY if there is a free ipod involved and i get zero spam... ill even wear a shirt with their advertisors for a free item worth over 100 dollars....
I'll sign up as soon as I can get my P.O Box working, I guess
and I'm just doing it cause I am bored and all....
hehe
already got a 20gb ipod thanks :lol:
theyll spam you anyway,what they do is,wait a month after youve forgotten signin up with them THEN they spam you and you cant pin them for it.
trust me its an old trick
Well, spam is a small price to pay for an ipod...
I signed up with an email that is already flodded with spam. I get like 30 spam emails a day, and I figure: "How bad can it actually get?"....
Please dont sign up unless you are going to sign up completely= completing one of the offers which most require entering a credit card for their trial
no money will be charged as long as you cancel after the ipod site confirms your completion for the offer
STOP.
Right. 3rd time this has happened. NOT COOL.
I am absolutely amazed at how you feel it's perfectly right to come here and exploit Dreamviews with viral marketing (read: wasting bandwidth). You are conning decent Dreamviews members out of their money, and icedawg. I don't care about your BS reasons. From what I tell, eBay and stuff don't affilate this. It's very easy to set it up so it looks like they are affilitated. THEY ARE NOT.
It is NOT reliable, it is NOT a reliable company, you are almost likely going to lose.
Don't sign up for this utter shit. People lose. You may win, but still overall people lose. Only 12% get their ipods, you will need more than 5 referrals! He even admitted it was a pyramid scheme! Don't buy into this crap! It's also viral marketing. He's getting an advantage while wasting our bandwidth, our time and everybody elses resources. Defintely not cool.
If you think you can come and:
Exploit our bandwidth
Waste our members time and potentially money
Viral market on our site
Advertise Pyramid schemes
You have another thing coming. If I was a moderator, I would of deleted this, and the rest of your iPod threads by now. DREAMVIEWS IS NOT YOUR ADVERTISING STATION. OUR BANDWIDTH HAS BETTER THINGS TO BE SERVING UP.
Remember this old saying?
Don't do it "just this time" because it "might" be true. It isn't. Wrong. Go away. Delete delete deletedeletedelete.Quote:

So maybe it was harsh. It's the 3rd time this has happened. It is not cool. Read above reasons. It's times like this I really really wish I had a thread delete button... Really.
Now this is a perfect example of why kaniaz should be a moderator.
oh and also:
Lol thats from sleepy hollow :lol:Quote:

Just go download it now, I'm sure you'll find it better than the rest. No, really. Kazaa has spyware, Kazaa lite has died, eMule is slower than my grandfather's car, and eDonkey is the same as eMule except with an idiot community.
Really, just use it.
bark at others for wasting space while you are wasting it yourself
pretend to be a moderator
promote illegal downloading of files
spit out made up facts about the things im promoting
you got another thing coming
you are not an admin or moderator for these reasons
if the admins wanted me to not post that i hope they would have asked me to stop or deleted it but they havent
:lol: Illegal. Hehe. thats funny. Illegal...Quote:

sure it is
the program itself isnt illegal
but its unspoken purpose is to download/share copyright music
please elaborate how its not illegal
"illegal software" sounds like its illegal software
"software that is widely used for illegal purposes... alot!" sounds alot better.... you have to make sure you arent talking nonsense, especially if you are.
*sneaks in*
hehe, flame wars...
*sneaks out quietly*
whatever your too confusing for anyone to carry on an argument
i didnt say illegal software and you arent clear
Woah, let's slow down here. After I reveal the fact that, indeed, the iPod thing is a complete waste of time and money, and deprive you of your referrals so carefully derived from other people's userbases, you ask me to cry you a river. A sexually excited one. :|
Let's look for the following words: mp3, music, riaa, illegal, rip, songs, ripping, and, finally, the sentence \"illegal file sharing\".Quote:

Oops, it's not there. Not once do I say anything about downloading illegal stuff. Therefore, you're wrong. Promoting a P2P client is perfectly legal - it depends what you download from it. You were wrong. Don't put words in my mouth, mmk?
IT IS? News to me. Because, the \"unspoken purpose\" of a Shareaza P2P client is to access and download from the Shareaza networks, not explicity to download music. If it was, they would of been lawsuited ages ago.Quote:

I somehow doubt that.Quote:

Oh, but that was your unspoken words. :)Quote:

Okay, next time I'll lay low and let you filll it up with, presumably:Quote:

\"Pleeeeeeeeaaaassssssssssseeeeeeeeeeeee join up for my iPod pyramid scheme!\"
Er, what the hell. I don't say I'm a moderator, and saying I do is just a complete pack of lies. The closest I've said is:Quote:

Not:Quote:

There's quite a difference, you have to admit.Quote:

We already discussed how this was a load of BS above, right.Quote:

Please give me examples. Of course, the whole intent of my post was to look cool. How on earth did you discover it. [/sarcasm]Quote:
spit out made up facts about the things im promoting
I find it wholesomely amusing how you use the same format as my above post. Why? Does it escape you how to construct your own? It certainly seems like it to me.Quote:
you got another thing coming
What reasons? Each and every one has been utterly destroyed above. :)Quote:
you are not an admin or moderator for these reasons
let me follow your same style.Quote:

And finally, I think I'll clarify each reason that this amazing free iPod thing isn't good, just so you can't use your \"fake reasons\" again.Quote:

Viral Marketing (ie: what this is)
As you can tell, it's not good is it? Go argue with wikipedia.com about it if you like, I'm sure they tell you what I'm unspokenly telling you here.Quote:
Viral marketing refers to marketing techniques that seek to exploit pre-existing social networks to produce exponential increases in brand awareness, through processes similar to the spread of an epidemic.
The term was originally coined to describe various free email services' practice of appending advertising for themselves to outgoing mail from their users. The assumption is that if such an advertisement reaches a \"susceptible\" user, that user will become \"infected\" (i.e., sign up for an account) and can then go on to infect other susceptible users. As long as each infected user sends mail to more than one susceptible user on average (i.e., the basic reproductive rate is greater than one), standard results in epidemiology imply that the number of infected users will grow according to a logistic curve, whose initial segment appears exponential.
More generally, viral marketing is sometimes used to describe any sort of Internet-based stealth marketing campaign, including the use of web logs, seemingly amateur web sites, and other forms of astroturf to create word of mouth for a new product or service.

Okay, the end. Now I certainly know that post was harsh, but to be frank I don't like it when people can't admit the fact they're not going to get an iPod, and espcially when they throw completely made up reasons at me. Anyway, because I happen to have a brain, and I can't really be bothered to continue an argument all the time with pcmsmurf, which I'm sure would only consist of more unspoken reasons and illegal music file sharing plotz!!111. So I'm not posting anymore in this thread. I'm sure the silent treatment will work out for him in the end. (deletethread, deletethread, deletedeletethreadthread deletedeletedeletethreadthreadthread).
P.S: I HOLD TRUTHBUTTER RESPONSIBLE!111. >:)
good way to take technicalities to a whole new level
yeah you didnt say mp3 but all P2P programs main purpose is to share copyrighted music
you find it amusing that i copied your style?
if so you lack the ability to see the sarcasm aspect of my copying it and not my imitation of you
oh yeah and as for the program not working there are countless sites of people who have completed the offer and recieved the ipod
even if i dont get it i still have the right to post it because it fits the criteria of the forum ( i think you cant handle the fact that you have no power to do anything about it except whine)
Well, Kaniaz is actually right, in a way. Now that I remember this is indeed the third time(or so) that you hav brought up this subject. It's ok to create one thread about it, but what is the point of creating more than one. Just because of that I won't sign up? In fact, not only will I not sign up, but if I ever did(for some reason that is beyond me) I would do so without the referal you crave so much. Anyway, stop posting threads like this, it is too much. And leave Kaniaz alone, he may not be a mod, but he's much more a part of the community than you will ever be...
