$2.25 in 5 days? That's laughable! Plus clicking your own links for $0.01/click... Tell me how's that smart?
You spend time setting up the system, bandwith uploading and following the links, electricity to power your PC -- all that paid by yourself, from your own pocket (or so it would seem). Not to mention that you're trying to waste others' patience, time, and bandwith with that shit - thing that ain't going to happen in my case.
Surely you're better off taking any kind of an occasional job offer (a $5.25/hr, as someone suggested) if you need to have a small separate income to access paid sites.

I'm against Linkbucks simply because it is an unnecessary inconvenience.
As a Linux user, I haven't had any problems with malware because of it, but I just don't like it.
Should people really be sharing stuff here in order to make a profit?
I've only shared a few videos here myself, but it's just something I wouldn't do.

Just as a curiousa reference if someone here runs their own domain and want to block linkbucks, here is a simple way to do it.

FYI, the earnings on popup from linkbucks ( I just checked it) equates to $1.00 per 2500 clicks = 0.0004 $ per click.

To hell with linkbucks. I don't care what other users say, but I am going to visit those links and post a direct non-linkbucks link. So if any of you see a link that you think will redirect, just look for my posts and you should find a direct link instead.
Hello everyone,
This is a bigger issue than just link-bucks on a forum.
It has to do with equity and common decency.
We must be tolerant of each other and make an effort to accommodate each other the best that we can.
I have no problem with an emergency vehicle double-parking.
Hey, next time it might be me they are helping.
But when some Ass#ole blocks traffic just to pick up his laundry . . . !@#$
Its the same with these Ca$h things.
If they were making some real money out of it I would say OK.
But . . . to waste an hour of my time so that they can make a penny?!
I say Eat-Sh1t-and-die!
:bow-pray:
Respectfully,
Tsuru

There is only one thing I'm annoyed with these linkbuck, urlcash, sites.
The links led me to a dead page. The files got deleted by the host like, Megaupload and Rapidshare...
The idea with these sites is that you post something, my clicks help you earn some money and in return, I get what I want.
At least keep the files alive. Otherwise, remove/delete the links.
The worst thing with these is that someone stole the links from other sites and insert their own linkbuck, urlcash links. And when the files got deleted, there is no chance of re-upload as those links and files aren't theirs to begin with.
And the links they stole from didn't have any of these linkbuck, urlcash crap in the first place...

Well I encounter the links mostly in the torrents forum, which is guaranteed traffic (through these links). It's fine as long as the material is made by the poster.
I mean some guy went ahead and bought the dvd and shared it to us. It's not cool that someone mooches off what you did and be not accountable for any of it (since it's not his material he's just linking it).

Used to be a nice site
A-O used to have a personal feeling about it, like a little online hideout where people got together to share their Hentai, Anime, JAV, and so on.
There were rules that everybody followed and helped to enforce. There were English titles on the posts. The posts were sorted appropriately. Members were recognizable, in that you generally knew what sort of quality and theme you'd get from somebody's upload. People took the time to add "Tags" to their posts, so they weren't lost in a big jumble.
I fondly remember the days when I could hit the "Torrents" or "Tags" button and easily look through the covers/screenshots before heading to work.
It has become a colossal waste of time.

I am getting tired of getting 30x popups and ten million ads every single time I get hit with a linkbucks redirect. It's annoying, pointless, and frankly, a major hassle.
It is a waste of time and frankly, an insult to Akiba, making money off the shoulders of what is essentially SOMEONE ELSE'S FORUM.

If do so, I thing many members in this forum will never post anything like me, ntt, khikhicuoi, etc...
Because we have to renew my RS, Megaupload account, my domain, hosting (for our blog, site), and we have to waste our time to upload all thing. YOU DON'T pay for us to do that, huh?
