HYIP tips when posting on a public forum

One problem that the internet has is that it joins together people from all over the world who have very different views, religions, opinions, aspirations and outlook on life. This can create tensions, anger and even resentment. Occasionally it can boil over and you will see personal attacks on people on virtually every forum that you visit.

Here are some tips when posting on a public forum (this is personal pet peeves and observations of what annoys people in general):

1. • When you make a post on a forum, don’t be cocky, arrogant, or a know all, people don’t like that
2. • Try and be slightly humble, and don’t ridicule another members’ opinion or post.
3. • Avoid getting involved with personal attacks on people.
4. • Don’t post ads for programs in any other folder other than the Advertising folder (most public forums will have an advertising folder). Be prepared for the program that you posted to be called a scam.
5. • It’ll take time to earn respect on a forum, for a few months you’ll just be another person.
6. • Use proper grammatical English. People will respect your opinion less if you use words like "cuz" "wanna" or other slang words. It might be quicker to type, but people will get annoyed very quickly. If English isn’t your native language, people will make allowances for this if let them know before hand. Try using the language translator on http://babelfish.altavista.com - Again, let people know that you are using a language translator
7. • Don’t WRITE ALL IN CAPITALS. In internet world this comes across as if you are shouting. It lacks effect, as does adding 3000 explanation marks (!) after each sentence.
8. • Don’t write long blocks of text without formatting it. Separate into paragraphs. If people see huge posts, generally they will scroll on past it. Short and to the point usually guarantees a better response.
9. • Remember to be polite, rudeness; swearing will not be tolerated by most forum members.

Remember that when you are writing to a program admin, you are writing to another human being who will have emotions and feelings. The tone that you take with your email will usually dictate how quickly and how helpful the admins response will be. If a program skips a payment for any particular day, send a polite email asking if there was any reason for this. In some cases you’ll find that the markets were closed that day, thus no money was made, or any number of other legitimate reasons.

Also, allow the owner time to reply. If you don’t receive a reply immediately, don’t post over every forum that you haven’t been paid – you could inadvertently help kill the program and you’ll never be paid. Give the owner 72 hours to reply, if they still haven’t replied by that time, check the programs forum to see if they are still active on there. You could even enquire to see if anyone else was not paid. What wouldn’t be helpful would be to shout (in capitals): SCAM!!!! NOT PAID!!!!
