Medical Forum / General / Alternative / April 2008Getting Paid to Post in Forums
It isn't that expensive----- http://www.forum-posting.info/ Yes, they are out there..... >>>>>We will take your sluggish forum and post enough fresh content to drive a wealth of traffic to your forum. In fact, you will gain so much traffic from our posts, that you will most likely sign up for another package.<<<<<<<< That's my favorite line. > It isn't that expensive----- > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > That's my favorite line. The whole thing sounds ridiculous to me. If a forum is not interesting enough on its own merits, a likely outcome is a lot paid, uninterested subscribers talking to each other. And I find even the most vulnerable of health-concerned people (cancer patients) are now very skeptical about anything that directs them to commercial sites. If not, they should be.

I also perceive whenever I have written someone that the Good Housekeeping Loop Group doesn't approve of, that ridiculous comments always follow. Ridiculous or not, people are getting paid.

That is why they pay posters to defame and tidicule opposition to their aqgenda. It is not in the ads, it is in the products and services that the revenue are generated. But you knew that already. >> In message <83a09b71-611b-46e1-8ec0-cc7a08a02...@t12g2000prg.googlegroups.com>, Bee wrote: >> [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] > > But you knew that already. No, and I still don't. This appears to be part and parcel of your complete certainty that I'm one of those paid-to-posters. Which you manifestly don't believe yourself, despite all of the bluster and bluff. Or were you going to put your money where your mouth is after all?

However, with your email address -- it has crossed my mind that you could be a sock puppet -- for that dude down in Apple Valley. This is based on Timmie's information that he posted on this subject matter that brought this information forward -- after all this is not really a lumbercartel. > I don't think anyone really thinks you are being paid to post. > However, with your email address -- it has crossed my mind [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > brought this information forward -- after all this is not really a > lumbercartel.

It kind of makes you wonder about those that may or may not be engaged in national security. >> Let's just say that Timmie's skills in computer forensics >> are not even up to his other detective abilities.

Yup, and they you tell us that Timmie has me located in Apple Valley. Easy enough for anyone with basic skills to figure out, which implies that those who have problems either lack skills or don't really want the truth. | The most important exclamation in science isn't "Eureka!" | | The most important exclamation is "What the BLEEP?" | +---------- D.

Nope---that's not where you have said you lived. > Which leaves the question of how this relates to MHA -- it's > not exactly as though the ad revenues are impressive. I'm not sure if there are people in this forum that get paid to post or not. I'm not sure that is something that anyone would indeed brag about, but I find it interesting, that it does exist on some forums in the first place. How it relates to MHA is if indeed people get paid to post. Can you imagine all of the people here if they got paid for every insult that they have posted on a consumer newsgroup at consumers who they (in their ever so humble opinion) are not smart enough to be able to figure out a hoax all on their very own. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably isn't true, same for conventional and alternative health. The prime example I love to use is the shampoo commercial for the 60's that showed how by using this certain type of shampoo that it could fix the split ends. How many people bought that product thinking that by using that shampoo really did fix their split ends? I had a friend that swore by one of those products. I said, let's do the logic together. Would it be possible to "mend" a split end? Even Puff the Magic Dragon's supply of "sealing wax" couldn't handle that job!! She finally "got it" when we cut off her split ends, and soaked them in the shampoo---those split ends never mended. Oh, the power of the spin------- > > Which leaves the question of how this relates to MHA -- it's > > not exactly as though the ad revenues are impressive. [quoted text clipped - 33 lines] > > Oh, the power of the spin------- The power of the spin is directly prportional to the intelligence level of the recipient. This is what the "Spin doctors" use to their advantage. |
