Entrecard is going, going, gone!

admin | May 1, 2009

I’ve been patient. I’ve waited to see if just perhaps they’d right the ship… but no, now I’m seeing an ad on my site which is neither paid, nor approved by me.
So, Entrecard… farewell.
Please take my 359 EC and put them where the sun won’t shine on them. Oh, and you can also take that [...]

Entrecard credit issue may be resolved

admin | April 25, 2009

After much back and forth with Matt Oxley, a current Entrecard mod, and Ben Barden, a former Entrecard mod, I may have uncovered the solution to the problem.

Entrecard issues continue: Bug, glitch, scam?

Entrecard Cashout Service Puts Private Info at Risk

admin | April 17, 2009

So, you’ve got Entrecredits to cash out?
If you’re smart, you’ll forego the option as Entrecard is currently demanding you give them your name, address, phone number, SSN (social security number) or EIN (employer information number) and your Paypal account all via an unsecured web form.
Now, I’m sure Phirate is smarter than that, but Graham, being [...]

Entrecard Mod dares to speak out

admin | April 15, 2009

I’ve been expressing my displeasure with the actions of the Moderation Team who saw fit to delete one of my blogs because I sent a thank-you note to an advertiser, which they considered to be spam.
Now, I don’t really know this team other than to know that Andy is 19 years old. I believe I [...]

Is this spam… You tell me

admin | April 12, 2009

At Entrecard, members may purchase advertising on other members sites.
I recently added Traffic-Exchange-Business.com Blog to my stable of blogs which use Entrecard to drive traffic.
Since January 2008, I have routinely sent a thank-you note to my advertisers. I have also held a random prize drawing amongst the advertisers. However, because Entrecard has radically changed how [...]
