hi all, i like the site and think the forum is a great idea, and has offerd me the chance to get some help so here i go.


i used to watch videos all the time while playing, but now when i try to watch a video the page is just blank, and noting happens, i have tried to delete cookies and update java and use chrome firefox, i cant think why they wont work.



also another big problem im having is with refferals, i had a friend of mine use my link right if front of my eyes! and i did not get any refferal bonuses , he still activly uses the site but i dont get anything, so just how many refferals have slipped through the net?      any help is much appreciated

 Occasionally the virool player has some issues. 
Currently I have 9 videos to watch that won't pay but won't go away either :(

As far as referal links I have found it works best to put your link into a custom made tinyurl
Such as www.tinyurl.com/talsimymentor

I tried using the regular referal ID and I was not getting them
But once I switched to using my tinyurl the referrals started coming in no problem.
Hope it helps :D

The videos you watch on the website are actually embedded in an iframe pointing to Virool website. The video player belongs to them and we can do nothing about it. Recently heard rumors that Virool servers are under DDoS attacks (intentionally generated high traffic to a webserver to slow it down or even make it crash). Lets wait and see how soon they fix it.

When someone clicks a referral link, a referrer cookie is placed on that machine which is valid for 30 days. When the user registers, the system sets the referrer from that cookie. If we see an IP violation, we move such referrals manually.

phillip. as for watching videos they were having problems yesterday.  I seen quite a number that I did not get credit for.  Today however they worked fine.  Try reloading your page and depending on your browser, find where it says to 'reload' entire page every time you hit it, so it does not try to use stale stuff cached and that might help with the videos if it is a problem on your end.

Also I have seen where Firefox / Java Updates for some reason the security is set way high and it blocks stuff out, turn it down a notch and see if that lets the video through.

Hopefully this helps.
