I am not trully stupid. I'll thank you not to drop to that level again, I'm not interested in flame wars, and I'll not perpetuate them.

Honestly, I do not care how the site owner makes money. I signed up for inFone service (that cost me nothing, and got me a $10 gift card to amazon.com). I never even had to worry about cancelling a trial. Read this carefully, it is a NET GAIN for me. I used a throw-away email, so bonus, I dont get any spam. If you still dont understand this, then read it again below:

This - Cost - Me - Nothing - But - My - Time

This - Cost - My - Referrals - Nothing - But - Their - Own - Willingly - Donated - Time

Every person I know who submitted five referrals has received an iPod. Now, if someone wants to give up half way through their referrals, that's their own problem. It's not the fault of the site operator, and it's no reflection on my own intellect.

Now if I was the only person I knew who received an iPod, then yes, I would say they were giving a few our to incent the crowd; but as far as I know and can tell, that is not happening.

Thus far, your argument has been a sum total of "Some people don't have patience, and you're stupid!". That's not very convincing, is it?

On the other hand, I have contributed "I received mine in a timely manner, as has everyone else I know who completed the requirements."

Who do you suppose people are more likely to believe?

If you have anything further of interest to share then feel free to reply, but I'll not continue to reply to insults and ill thought out arguments. You do not appear to be convincing anyone else, and you certainly are not convincing me.
