Unfortunately this doesn't help with what I'm reaching for - A list compiled strictly for the purpose of defining the unique and various results that accompany each offer. This is why I'm asking each person to submit any information they have about their own experiences. If 15 of you got instant credit on Yahoo Success Kit, then this list will tell anybody who's curious that at least 15 people here on FLR can verify that this is really an "instant" offer.

KEEP THEM COMING!

Everyone is invited to post. Even if you only post ONE experience, it will help our goal!

MOD's, Noobs, Vets! Come one, come all! We've still got a lot of offers that haven't even been added to the list yet!

um i like this thread and everything, but sometimes the crediting time for the same offer is different on different sites/networks. so how will we know from this master list who did what where

If the individual who posted here decides to specify which site they did an offer on, then you will see that specification in their individual post... however that is not the main point of the thread.

For the most part, this is for the purpose of giving an example of the RANGE of reporting times that somebody might expect from each offer. It's a general range, with the understanding that you might have the same experience as the people who got "instant" credits, or the people who got credit a week later for the same offer.

No one site always has the same reporting time for any one specific offer anyway. There would be no way to create a list with those details without making it extremely complicated and possibly driving traffic AWAY from some IFW's - which would be completely unfair to do.

Think of it like this - We don't want "Sam" to say he got instant credit on TraInn, and "Sarah" to say she got credit 3 days later for that same offer on Git-R-Free. That would possibly drive people away from Git-R-Free based on what those people said about the SITE as opposed to the OFFER itself. What we want to do is point out that the offer in question CAN take 3 days to credit, or it CAN be instant. The SITE itself is very rarely the cause of a delay or lack of credit altogether.

Thank you for asking about that. It was my fault to not specify this earlier. ALL questions are welcome.

Also - if anyone has any suggestions on a way to improve this list, please share! I want this list to be as positive and as clear as possible, so that EVERYONE can benefit from its content.

The Crediting time "per offer" varies depending on where the sites GET the offer, also how the site is setup for auto-crediting, and how often they manually import leads (on those they do).

e-music is instant on our site, yet 2-3 days on others (this is only one example) but as you can see this can make user experiences really vary based on sites they participate in.

Also keep in mind Publishers change crediting times as well. I've seen a single offer change from instant to 5-7 days (3-4 times) within a 3-week span.

This is exactly what I'm saying as well. That's why I want to specify the range of reporting times that FLR users have experienced, since we know that everyone uses various different sites.

In the e-music example above, I want a list that will detail the fact that X number of users got instant credit, but some others got credit in 3 days, or possibly even longer. This way, a user can be aware that their specific experience could be any of the above, since I don't specify which sites usually credit that one offer in 3 days as opposed to instant.

I still feel that it would be very unfair to include those site-specific details, and very complicated. We don't want to drive traffic away from one site just because they usually take 3 days as opposed to instant - we simply want to make the user aware that there is REAL good chance they will get credit wherever they do the offer, but it MIGHT be instant and it might take 3 days. This way, if somebody doesn't receive credit right away, they know that half of the FLR users who took the time to contribute to this list, actually waited several days for credit even though some others got it instantly.

What do you guys think? Would it be more fair to include site-specific results as well? Or would that just cause bigger problems because then people will think that if they use that particular site; they'll definitely get credit faster. What happens when people choose that particular site and end up not getting the credit faster? I'd probably have unhappy users posting on my thread, and the site owners/support would have unhappy users wondering why everyone else got instant credit on one particular offer and they didn't.

I think the purpose of your post is clear. It's not to include site specific times. It is to show the newbies what I call "freebie math". So they dont freak out when an instant offer doesnt' credit them INSTANTLY.
