Welcome to Smuggle Me

I’ve been with PayPerPost for pretty much as long as anyone else. After all, I am Postie #61. Well, it’s been a great ride. I’ve made a chunk of cash. Learned from watching Ted the marketing genius. Made a lot of interesting friends.

However, there are a number of things that just get my panty hose all bunch up. All you ladies out there know how much fun that is. It’s not. So, here’s my list of Top PayPerPost pains. I decided to not specify a number. Instead I’d just spell it out.

1. 2 emails every time I get paid - this is a minor annoyance, but one would be better
2. Filling out a captcha when commenting on their blog - If they had used Wordpress akismet would have stopped spam and saved me the heartache
3. Opportunity Sort is by Date Entered - The first thing I do when looking at opportunities is to sort it by $$. I’ve been doing this for a year and a half and I wish it was the default (or at least my default)
4. I have 2 bans that should be benches, but it was before benches existed
5. My pile of payperpost referrals hasn’t paid me squat. I keep hoping that one will pull through and make me some cash, but it might be hopeless. I guess that program wasn’t as good as I thought it would be.
6. It doesn’t remember my username on the login screen.
7. Brit won’t hook us up to her Tropicana model pictures
8. My PR 5 blog dropped to a PR 4 blog and Google’s PR update is taking forever. Ok, that’s not PPP’s fault, but I’m blaming them because my other PR 5 blog is so niched focused I’ve only been able to do one opp. Therefore, it shows me a long list of high paying opps which I can’t do, because my PR 5 blog is so niche focused. That’s like the proverbial dangling the carrot. I wish I could “delist” my PR 5 blog so I didn’t have this problem.
9. Ted use to dangle weekly marketing ploys, announcements, etc that were entertaining and interesting. The celestial ARGUS will be essentially 5 months of anticipation. 5 months pretty much translates to a disappointing release in November. I expect it to be like moving a computer from 2-4 gigs of RAM. The 4 gigs of RAM is sexy, but doesn’t really add much value to my experience.

Of course, I hope I’m wrong about number 9, but 5 months of dreaming is hard to fulfill. I guess we’ll see if Argus is more like iPhone or Vista.
