"I am currently a silver honour level and I have earned about $275 total already mostly from my 756 referrals. I don't have enough time to earn $25 just to reach gold honour level when I could easily just earn that from referrals anyway. You can see I'm already trustworthy anyways. My point is, for me to reach gold honour level I need to get 2,500 referrals. This is just ridiculous. I mean, I get a lot of referrals but not that much! The main thing is that I need to be able to make payments to paypal immediately for business purposes and to not have a reliable time of payment it makes it extremely frustrating. All I'm interested in is having instant payments to paypal. Either the silver honour level needs to be changed to allow paypal instant payments or the requirements for gold honour level referral-wise needs to be lowered. I hope you can take your time to realize my frustration.

Sincerely,

YoungSpiffy"

i agree with you somewhat. im understanding your frustration, but the referral requirements that stand for Gold members are there for a reason. that's PROMOTION. instead of doing offers, you promote the site. it is very hard, but that's the point- so is doing offers. i understand your frustration, but i DO absolutely agree with you that i think in some specific cases, especially on the higher earning, Silver- aspect of members, instant PayPal should be available. it's sort of unfair in a way. 2,500 is a LOT of referrals, but i think that in your case, PayPal should be instant due to your trustworthiness on the site. i personally think you're a great guy and you're helpful in shout and forums. you're doing the best that you can here, and that's great. i think that there needs to be an exception made by points2shop on some members that are below gold, but are VERY trustworthy. you can directly contact me if you need anyone to back you on this if it eventually gets brought up to administration, i'd be glad to include my input on the situation. hope this helps in any way

thank you im glad you agree YoungSpiffy



It looks like your halfway there. Is it really that hard to earn 12 dollars worth from offers? Im sure you can do it in a week if you really wanted instant paypal payout.

I cannot say I agree.

If they started giving exceptions to some members, then everyone would feel they needed that exception as well and then there would be no point in even having a restriction to this. It should stay to members who actually reach the honour level, and not just given to them. This would cause more work for the admin to do even, and how would they determine you were trustworthy?

If you're finding it difficult to reach the Gold honour level from the promoters requirements then it only makes sense to go for the other requirements because it would in fact be easier for you. You're from the US and definitely have plenty of earning opportunities in offers that would get you the honour level.

The reason you say you can't earn it in offers is because you don't have enough time? You definitely could earn enough with just giving offers a few minutes a day. I don't think your reasons are good enough for a strong case. It sounds to me you just want it easily given to you, and that's not what the honour levels are about. You're suppose to achieve them. There should never be exceptions because point blankly, it is unfair and makes that being a privilege for Gold members pointless.

Just go for the earnings in offers to get your Gold. ;)

I'd have to agree with Chevychic. Just saying you don't have time is really one of the worst possible excuse to give. The point of the honour levels is that you're willing to put time and effort into it. If you can't that that's not only a problem of your own.

Just look at me. I have a hard time reaching 50 refs to turn diamond. I had to have had help on reaching just 10 when I needed it for platinum. You may say that's pathetic, but I can say the same on you earning just 25 dollars.

if it were ridiculously far from easy i dont believe nearly 6,000 members would have been able to achieve it :) Honor levels are meant to show what you have put into the site no if you dont put in the time or effort it wont happen. In all honesty though $25 is nothing.. i'd of at least expect this topic for the "diamond or legend honors" and again honors are what you put into the site so if you want gold youll have to meet the requirements. If you cant, i can bet there are several users willing to and DO accomplish it.
