This is totally ridiculous.
I cant download anything without taking 50 surveys.
What the heck?

Yeah, not diggin' the Sharebee. >_>

I took the IQ survey and it doesn't seem to recognize that fact. So I can't download anything apparently.

What's this about surveys? I'm not getting any, just links to the file on rapidshare, megaupload and some others, which all seem to work fine. I do get quite a few popup ads from Sharebee but nothing that would keep me from downloading. Can you guys describe exactly what you're doing to get re-routed to mandatory surveys?

Codemonkey85 · 12-14-2009, 12:24 PM

Well, Rapidshare told me the downloads had exceeded their limits unless I have a premium account, which I do not. I don't think I tried Megaupload yet, actually... I think I missed that link.

When I get home later, I will re-attempt the Sharebee links and see what happens. If I get the surveys again, I will take and document/annotate screenshots on Flickr or something.

Meister · 12-14-2009, 12:26 PM

Alright. Just quickly popping in to say that that's pretty standard fare for Rapidshare. It's annoying but they have to keep in business somehow.

Codemonkey85 · 12-14-2009, 03:15 PM

What, the premium account? Yeah, I get it, and I'm not bitter or anything. I was just responding to your post thoroughly by explaining the steps I'd already taken to get what I want. And unfortunately, I do not feel that the amount of material I find myself downloading from Rapidshare quite sanctifies the cost of a premium membership.

Astrobot7000 · 12-14-2009, 06:17 PM

Yeah. Sharebee makes me take those surveys, and then never registers their completetion.

Meister · 12-15-2009, 03:41 AM

I gathered that, I'm just curious how exactly that happens. Screenshots or something would be neat.

For reference, I'm just running ordinary Firefox with the popup blocker on and an add-on installed to block flash content. So either not everyone's getting surveys or it's really easy to work around them.
