I have an important announcement for all campaign participants: The pay rates for this campaign will be changing once again. Pay rates will now be expressed in USD, rather than in bitcoin.

All pay rates will be directly converted to USD as of the current bitcoin price (about $2550 USD right now). This means that the new rates will be as follows:

Staff/Legendary/Hero: $135 USD per month
Senior Members: $100 USD per month
Full Members: $50 USD per month

Additionally, the avatar bonus will be converted to USD as well, so if users decide to wear the Rollin.io avatar, they'll be paid an additional $20 USD per month.


These changes won't affect your current pay period, only future pay periods. This also means that the amount of bitcoin you'll be paid will fluctuate, based on the current price of bitcoin compared to USD (so if you're owed $135 USD and the bitcoin price is $2500 USD, you'll be paid 0.054 BTC. If you're owed $135 and the price of bitcoin is $1000 USD, you'll be paid 0.135 BTC).

You may have noticed that the campaign has also been downsized from 30 participants to 20 in the past week or so. Currently, the campaign is costing Rollin.io a few thousand USD per month, and they want to cut down on those costs a little bit, which is the reason for these recent changes. If you have any questions, feel free to post them here or send me a PM.

I'll be changing the rates on the spreadsheet tomorrow for both member ranks and the avatar bonus (exactly a month after they were announced), so that everyone is paid out for their current term at the old rates.

It's a lot of work keeping track of who has been paid out at the old rate and who hasn't, and modifying the spreadsheet accordingly, so I will just change it all at once tomorrow.

Since you'll be paid in a week and a couple days, you'll be paid out as a Senior member for this month, and then I'll change your rank to Hero once your payment has been sent out. No need to let me know - I'll check your rank after I send your payment out.

Sure - I could take an Amazon.com code and vouch for that.

I'd take a PSN vouch if you're still looking for somebody to vouch for your codes. Send me a PM if you're interested.

PM'd!

I'd be willing to accept you if you change your signature - please let me know in the next 24 hours if you decide to do so.

Unfortunately this campaign is now full again and I have to deny all other applicants as BTCLovingDude will probably be taking this last slot.

Great, you've now been slotted in.

Not a problem - thanks for participating!

Accepted, as per our PM conversation a few days ago - please send me your bitcoin address and I'll slot you in.

I have an important announcement for all campaign participants: Due to the increasing price of bitcoin, this campaign will be dropping its payment rates. These rates will come into effect after you receive your next payment, so it won't affect the rate you're being paid for your current term. The new rates are as follows:

Hero/Legendary/Staff: 0.0525 BTC per month
Senior Member: 0.0375 BTC per month
Full Member: 0.01875 BTC per month

All of the above rates are for 50 constructive posts per month. Additionally, the avatar bonus will be dropping from 0.01 BTC per month to 0.0075 BTC per month.

I realize it's a bummer that the campaign rates are dropping by 25%, but I think these rates are still pretty good - Hero members will be paid about $90 USD per month for 50 posts, not counting the avatar bonus.

Feel free to send me a PM or post here if you have any questions or concerns about these new rates.

You're welcome, thanks for participating in the campaign!

Thanks for your input - I'll try my best to have the campaign spreadsheet updated every 7 days.

Do you mind expanding on this a little bit? If you mean recording the current post count for the user (ex. after posting this message, I'll have made 1878 posts), I'd rather not do that, as it can be an inaccurate record of posts made in a month. It's not uncommon for posts or threads to be deleted, resulting in lost posts. If I base my numbers on the starting post count of a user, then that creates a possibility that I'd miss some posts. Instead, I base my post counting on post timestamps and haven't had any issues.

I'd be willing to accept you if you change your signature and optionally your avatar as well. Please let me know in the next 24 hours if you decide to do so.

Unfortunately since I've offered this last slot to ajaxmoor, I have to deny entry to everyone else who has applied.

Accepted - you'll be slotted in shortly.

Unfortunately since Doms took the last slot, I have to deny everyone else entry.

Sounds good, I'll update your rank in the spreadsheet after your next payment has been sent out.

I suspect he will instead.

Why would someone pay a premium to purchase from you, when they could instead buy it from Newegg or Amazon and:

a) have the item delivered by the end of the week
b) know that they'll have top-notch support
c) be dealing with a trusted vendor who they know won't run off with their money
d) spend less money
e) be the original buyer of the product, so they know that the manufacturer's warranty is valid (some products don't offer transferable warranties)

?

If you really want to sell these products, then I'd suggest re-considering your prices so that they're 10% to 15% lower than what people would pay for the item brand new from Amazon or Newegg.

You've been slotted into the spreadsheet.

Not a problem - thanks for participating!

One slot is now open in this campaign.

If you'd still like to join the campaign you'll have to re-apply, as we don't reserve slots (and you applied when the campaign was full).

Unfortunately I would have to deny you due to a lack of recent posts + a lack of constructive posts.

It looks like this campaign is now full again, thanks to everyone who applied and I'm sorry to those who did not get a spot in the campaign.

I'd be willing to accept you if you change your signature, and optionally your avatar as well. Please let me know in the next 24hrs if you decide to do so.
