View Full Version : CompDough Deleting Accounts With Free E-mail Accounts

CompDough looks like a scam as well. People signed up for free e-mail addresses so that junk mail will be delivered there, not to their paying e-mail addresses. This is getting way out of hand. It is another way for them not to pay their members any money at all.

Really? That isn't what I saw. Here's what I saw:
FREE EMAIL ADDRESSES ARE NO LONGER ACCEPTED
We no longer accept free email addresses such as hotmail.com, zwallet.com, themail.com etc. Please signup with an email address that will not bounce such as one provided by your internet service provider. You may cancel your membership at any time if you no longer want to be CompDough Member.
If you subscribe with one of these type of free email addresses, you run the risk of having your account deleted if your email bounces. To change your email address, login to your account and click "Edit Your Information".******* Our Terms of Service require that members maintain a valid email address that does not bounce.*******
(emphasis added by me)
Basically what this says is that people who have bouncing mail will get kicked. Almost EVERY PTR has this kind of rule. Once again you are out to stir up the pot on some program, running around reposting third-hand info without even being a member of the program that you feel YOU have a right to judge.
You need a life.

You are the trouble maker. You want these companies to scam others because you want venomx to do that by screwing members out of what they have earn. They changed their TOS lately to get rid of that. I will say this. They only want to spam people's paid e-mail accounts.

Uhhmm...yeah....see, me and venomX are secretly working for the Evil Secret Hackers Discount Club. Even though I don't have a PTR, I'm out to scam the world! I'm going to send paid links through postal mail, and then keep track of it on a chalkboard. But I won't pay anyone, I'll just scam them!! Because I'm so evil and such a troublemaker!!!
See the truth is, I'm really Dr. Evil and me and VenomX are out to scam everyone, so that we can defeat Austin Powers, and make One Billlliiiiooon dollars.
And...and...I secretly hypnotized the owner of compdogh to force him to change his TOS...and I secretly control the UN and NATO!!!

well, now that i've read the thread, maybe you should have said boycott compdough because they delete members! not because of the free email stuff!
i'm sorry but i just have to say this! see what i mean? you get people mixed up about certain subjects and thats where all the fights begin! before you post something, read it first & see if it is the actual problem or if it really explains what you mean!!! & don't tell me this thread is gonna end up with poncer vs venomx again for what he posted & all! then its gonna go back to the yahoo lady & the death threats!
stick to the topic & i will go back to the topic if i figure out what the topic is! please!

They delete members who bounce, just as many other programs do. Hey, it can be tough for those who miss out on checking their mail once only to find out it's full, but about half the PTRs out there have a policy like this. I've been booted from a few before for it, and it taught me a lesson, never to depend on free email for this sort of thing, or at least to stay on the ball.

all gpt's do this! not just compdough! it won't be fair for the advertisers if the members can't read their ads because they bounce too much!
