I also dont know whats so wrong about it
Like I said in my Faucet thread, I want to start the faucet "without" a investment (of course I had to load my wallet before hand) but when I get some cash the first think I will do is move on to a decent hosting and domain.
I might just contact you, thanks!

Then everyone will move to Paytoshi, Xapo and others.

As a faucet user I wanted to put up a post and hopefully I can get some clarification and some answers from both faucet users/owners and the admin of faucetbox. I am not a faucet owner and am in no way affiliated with any either.

There's a few things I have noticed when using various faucets over the last year or so. I have seen all kind of underhand tactics from faucet owners that I don't believe is good at all.


1) Hiding claim buttons/ having fake claim buttons or disguising them to trick users into clicking on adds.

i see this over and over again. Where is the logic in this? Less people will claim a prize but if it takes a user longer to find a claim button or they are tricked with false claim buttons, I for one will find the correct claim button click on it and not click any adds because of the time that has been wasted finding the claim button. I also will not continue to support the faucet. Its counter productive and sleazy to do this.

2) Using unfavourable time consuming captcha for the user.

As user I find it really frustrating when I have to wait 30 seconds for each faucet to complete captcha. This coupled with the really annoying 'are you human captcha where you have to put the basketball through the hoop or the tools in the toolbox. Its not the process of completing the captcha that is the problem for me, its how long it takes for it to register. I have had countless captcha thrown back at me saying 'incorrect captcha'. The only way to reduce this is to wait 20-30 seconds after I have completed captcha and it still fails 25% of the time here also. Again any faucet which wastes my time like this. I do not click adds. So YOU LOSE.

3) Faucets that do not indicate they are insufficient in funds.

Again very annoying to complete a captcha only to find insufficient funds, where is does not indicate when first visiting the faucet. Really annoying especially when you've had about 3 incorrect captcha's thrown back at you before hand when you have indeed entered it correctly. Obviously faucet owners do this so that they get free clicks and don't have to pay out claims.

When is it going to be understood that the more time you waste of the faucet users the more likely that less adds will be clicked and they probably won't support your faucet anymore in the process. Greed will get you nowhere in the long term, it just gives faucets a bad rep.

When I visit a faucet and everything is simply laid out I will click 3 maybe 4 adds because that faucet owner is honest and they deserve all that support. They will be able to pay higher payments to users and will be the preferred choice for users to visit. Win/win for the user/owner.

My recommendation to faucetbox owner... demonstrate a high standard and don't let any of these 'greedy and scammy faucets' on your payment system in the first place. Faucetbox will then be known for its integrity and users will trust that any faucet you have on your books are legitimate. Faucets that use any kind of misleading and underhand tactics to trick the user should be banned.

This faucet (which is a direct link, not a referral) pays high and makes things quick and easy for the user and in turn they pay well too. A great example to all other faucets out there.

Lets clean up the faucets so every wins in the longrun....

Kind Regards,

Well, thank you 

I love this new design, it's amazing!

Sooner or later we'll redo the faucets list from scratch, to include not only faucets but also other services and to allow users to vote on them. However that won't come soon and we don't really want to change anything before that rewrite.

Script, but I shifted it away from FaucetBOX midway through its operation and it never used the default FaucetBOX theme, so I don't see why you would ask in a FaucetBOX thread...

Sorry Kazuldur for adding useless posts to your thread. Will remove in a timely fashion.

I wouldn't blame FaucetBox for any actions of anyone else. If his site works correctly and is not trapping users it is none of FaucetBox's concern what else he does.

If you need any help send me a PM, APIs like blockchain.info are fairly easy to use.

Nice constructive post.

Whether or not you use them for revenue is irrelevant, as he was talking about getting traffic through advertising on them.

The pot said to the kettle.

Good, and please do the same yvesp. Not to disrespect any of you, but you are spamming the thread massively.
To post a scam accusation go here, if you have any other problems you should probably solve them over PM or other means.

You can't make it transparent but you can personalize your ads at Ad Styles.

Hi,

I can see that you are using AdSense ads and I'm just new with AdSense so I have one little question:

Is it possible to get transparent background ( AdSense TEXT ad )?

If you want to do something for money - "it's a scam, why the fuck it's not for free idiot?"
If you want to do something for free - "it's a scam, why is it for free?"

Well done, Bitcoin community  

Wow, 6 posts in a row, dat spam  

The sad part here is that EITHER of you could be trying to scam people. It's not saying that either of you ARE, but especially in the crypto world, people have to be extremely cautious.

I think you'd do a lot better just running multiple faucets and adding a referral system. A user would claim a branded faucet to help advertise (with their own name and such) and would get a cut of the money earned off it while they advertise it. Safer for everyone all-around, and gives you the chance to earn just as you would anyways.

Please read my original post:


I'm sorry but I do not believe that you fit in any of these categories... And I'd prefer if someone were to ask for a non collateral loan, that they meet all 3 requirements.
