GPTBoycott.Com was created to address issues arising within the "get-paid-to" industry, for informational purposes only, and is intended to inform and educate.

This is a "family oriented" site. With regards to race, sex, age, gender, nationality, origin or religious preference, we place no restrictions upon our members. However, in order to adhere to our intent and purpose, in addition to providing a place for rational, intelligent, well-informed discussions, certain forum rules have been enacted and must be enforced. This is a joint effort by Staff as well as members. We, the Staff, provide a place for members and guests to read current issues concerning the "paid-to" industry. We respect and encourage our members to make use of their "rights" by offering opinions, suggestions and comments. However, a member's "rights" end at the point the member's writings become, contain, hyperlink to or include URL's to:
1. Libelous comments;
2. Comments meant to incite, embarrass or ridicule another member, including personal attacks;
3. Profanity, racial or gender bias, sexual harassment, and/or threatening remarks, either direct or implied;
4. Unsolicited private messages (PMs) or e-mails, via this site, directed to another member, containing examples of any of the above. Recipients of said unsolicited private messages (PMs) or e-mails, having questionable content with regard to possible violations of the aforementioned rules, should forward same to a member of staff;
5. Non-compliant with an administrative directive.
6.

7. Multiple, or duplicate, memberships, by the same individual, are expressly prohibited. The only exception being whereas any member, excluding banned members, having difficulty logging in may find it necessary to create a second account for the express and sole purpose of contacting admin to rectify problems existing with the original account, after which, the second account will be deleted.
8. Posts should remain on topic. If you are unsure where to post what you want to discuss, please PM a staff member and we'll try to find a place for it.
9. Actions commonly known as "backseat modding" or "playing the moderator" are prohibited. This covers posts which publicly ask staff to review posts, to lock a thread (aside from a thread's opening poster if his query has been resolved), or to warn, punish or ban a member. This said, we do not wish to discourage the reporting of rule violations on our forums, and so we provide a selection of contact avenues.
10. Attempting to deceive the automatic word censor, by misspelling or in any way disguising words or parts of words.
If you have a concern regarding one of these issues, or a rule violation, acceptable methods of making your thoughts known are to PM a staff member, and to use the "Report" button, a triangle located at the upper-right corner of posts. If your concerns have warrant and another member has broken a forum rule, we politely request that you refrain from posting in an inciteful manner.
Violations will result in the immediate termination of said member's "rights" on this site.
Writings whose main or only purpose is to promote a member's referral link or affiliate opportunity, as determined solely by the GPTBoycott Staff, are expressly forbidden, unless made within the "Advertisements" forum. Moreover, the posting of irrelevant or inappropriate messages to the GPTBoycott Discussion Forums in deliberate or accidental violation of netiquette is also expressly forbidden.
For clarity, the term "netiquette" shall herein be defined as follows:
The conventions of politeness recognized on discussion forums, such as avoidance of cross-posting to inappropriate forums and refraining from commercial pluggery outside the designated forums.
Due to the questionable legality of the following types of site, their promotion either in posts or signatures, is prohibited at this forum:
Gifting Clubs,
HYIPs,
Ponzi Schemes,
Pyramid Schemes,
Randomizers.
It should be noted that honest discussion of any program is invited and encouraged, it is the promotion of these sites which is not permitted.
In addition, we ask that referral links be placed only in the following forums:
a) the referral threads forum
b) the advertisements forum, and/or the member's signature. Referral links for boycotted programs are not permitted anywhere within the GPTBoycott Discussion Forums. Please keep signatures to a reasonable length; those deemed unnecessarily disruptive to the viewing experience of our visitors will be removed or edited.
Signatures should contain text only. No images should be included within forum signatures. The text size within signatures should not exceed size "2". Signatures should not exceed four lines. Failure to comply with these guidelines will result in the signature in question being edited, and the possible suspension/termination of that user's forum rights.
