  1. I have a solid understading of computer viruses and like i said i am in a position to swap out my machine any day if need be. My one and only worry was the irreplaceable sl account, the one and only reason i started the thread was to make sure i stay within tos. also if anybody needs L$ and cant afford them, ill do them for you :D i see this as a possible bonding activity. sorry if it offends anyone

  3. I honestly think we have a choice to decide how we spend our time and what is worth doing. For me personally, it totally is. But then again i only ever need small amounts. I can also understand why people avoid them, which is also up to every person's best judgement. I personally have no data to lose, no social media and nothing that i would be wary of losing. And if some backdoor malware would pass through my antivirus then ill just reinstall windows or swap my laptop, hence as long as its within TOS its a viable option for me. But then again im not promoting them or anything. Im just happy i get to have more items on weekend sales xD

    I did a few surveys with one of my test alts.  It is legit, but you can go through lots of prelim questions of many different surveys before actually qualifying for one to get L$ from.  The alt made $68, but it took about 15-20 min, so not something that I'd consider really worth my time.  Even when I'm bored at work, I can find other more interesting things to do than surveys.

    You know, if you like doing surveys, then I guess you are at least getting something useful out of it.  Just not my cup of tea for how I want to spend my time.

    Its a matter of luck, also seeking survey cheatsheets to know the right answers helps. It would be fun if there was like a discord server or a group where we can do them together and chat and stuff, like camping at auctions in some mmorpg games type of thing, dunno :)

    From what I've been reading, there are legit survey sites that pay small amounts of cash to take surveys. Marketing departments for companies want to make higher sales and surveys are one method that they are willing to pay for. The only thing to worry about is if the particular site you are using is a scam website but that's something you'd have to do your own research on.

    There is a website called Amazon Mechanical Turk, yes owned by Amazon, where you can make some cash. It's basically a site where you do incredibly small online jobs. I made $0.40 cents once.

    i used to do lots of amazon turk surveys, maybe this is like that too. from the opinions i keep getting people say its legit..soo yeah it may be risky for people who actually use rl info but i think for me it might be worth my time

    They are legit, as far as actually paying you goes, but it's probably not worth your time unless you're a kid or otherwise unemployed / unable or unwilling to spend your own money / have lots of free time.

    I am neither a kid nor unemployed, i just like freebies. and in all honestly (maybe i was lucky) i earned more than i normally buy L$ for. i'll admit, im cheap and only buy small amounts for weekend sales lol

    My father always said that there's no such thing as a free lunch. You can't get something with no strings attached, and if something appears to be free, it really isn't.  I'd be wary about sites offering free Lindens. Of course they'll want to data mine your info in exchange. 

    My time is worth more than a few piddly cents filling out surveys on doggy sites. My desktop is too valuable to risk exposure to a possible backdoor malware. And for what? To gain a monetary benefit that is roughly 1/1024th of the cost I paid for my computer?

    thats a fair point, i dont know much about the data mining bit, but i guess i dont live an interesting life so i am really not worried about that, plus i didnt give any actual info because that not what they asked in the survey. its all super confusing. i think they are looking for traffic more than anything maybe. *shrugs*

    I may use my vpn and one of my obscure testing alts and go check the website out.  Always good to know about those type of sites in order to answer these kinds of questions.

    there are even unaffiliated sites that have the survey cheatsheets telling you what to fill to pass it with high scores lol im literally just discovering these things now

  10. swagbucks is for imvu only afiak but anywho, i asked inworld and sent a ticket too. will update as soon as i get a reply :D

    don't know if they want traffic or whatever lol i just want to make sure that they are authorized by the lab and if they are, you know what i dont mind wasting my time on them lol im on a budget anyways ♥

    I'm not sure why you'd admit publicly you're using fake info for what's seemingly real surveys seeking accurate info (otherwise why are they paying people to do them?).

    I occasionally do real, legitimate academic and consumer/product surveys paid in USD (not at all SL-related). Those are legit. I wouldn't waste my time with anything paying in Ls, personally.

    Oh man, I just peeked at the site and yeah, I wouldn't even enter a username on there let alone anything else. I'd avoid that like the plague, even if it does turn out to be legit.

    idk, dont understand what they gain from this either
