Hi, Unregistered.

Welcome to the FLR. Let’s start by giving you the grand tour.

If you’re absolutely brand-new here and want to know what it’s all about, you can go here:

New to the forum?

If that’s too basic for you, (You’ll know within 30 seconds of the time you start reading it–if you’re not bored by then, you should read it all) then it’s time to get started.

If you need to convince yourself that this is a truly legitimate opportunity, you can go here:

People who are making money!

After you’ve convinced yourself, if you want to just dive right in, you can contact someone who’s making money to ask them how, or you can read the advertisements for people looking to trade with you here:

Advertisements

That’s not necessarily the way to go, though. Being able to write a convincing advertisement doesn’t make you a good teacher/mentor. If you do a bit of enjoyable research, you can do better. I’d recommend you start by learning the rules here:

FreeLunchRoom RULES - Free Lunch Room

You can then have your basic questions answered here:

Member Tutorials - Free Lunch Room

and your more advanced questions here:

Freebie Help - Free Lunch Room

and here:

FLR Forum Support - Free Lunch Room

(There’s a lot of overlap between these last two forums.)

It’s better to start this way, because no-one gets paid to answer questions, so the people that do aren’t writing advertisements, they’re genuinely interested in helping. Read carefully and critically–people say a lot about themselves when they post. Find someone who seems to know what they’re talking about–or someone who you’ll be comfortable working with.

You can learn more about any trader by clicking on the “signature” at the bottom of his post. When you decide that you’ve found the right person to work with, send them a PM.

Read & Heed -Here's Some Good Starter Advice:

DON'T run blindly into this. Realistic expectations are essential - good side money but you will spend nickels and dimes to make dollars as a referral.

DON'T get involved in multicredit sites to start with...tempting as the money may be it will usually cost you more in the long run...

DON'T get too excited when you see your flr name flash up in posts! It's just a simple code that fills with the user name:) No magic...just keystrokes.

DON'T use a proxy server, especially AOL & even Hughes Satellite is causing issues - not to mention college campuses and other public areas! Huge No-No!

DO be paypal verified - have a "real" credit card (not reloadable/prepaid) or bank card for offers - prepared to give valid data when signing up for sites and offers, and know how to clear cookies and cache (temp internet files) and disable your firewall - or use Firefox as an alternative browser! IE 7 won't cut it, fyi.

DO be prepared with knowing the basics from reading and checking out Freebie Help. Research a good mentor/trader to start with - someone you feel comfy with. Know going in that offers carry different values and it may take you a few offers to make 1 credit=1 green = Paid!

DO remember your mantra......Cookies are what credit offers and if your cookies aren't cleared or you aren't set to accept all cookies, whelp...odds are pretty high you won't green=paid.

DO be aware that unrequested contact from a trader is spam, including pms, friendship requests, visitor messages & trades in your Trade Manager you didn't ask for! DO NOT RESPOND! Report it - it's against the rules here. You will NOT be the "bad guy"! That's what our moderators are for - to keep flr "clean".

***If you are coming to us from another forum, PLEASE read flr's rules for traders so you can get a great start...right...and truly enjoy all we have to offer!


DO visit around the forum and check out this awesome tutorial index and when you're ready, add your name to the list for friends and feel free to add others to YOUR list...you'll be pleased you did:)

Repeat after me...there are NO dumb or stupid questions if'n you don't know the answer!

DO muster up some patience and have a positive attitude...learn, earn, laugh and enjoy!

New Folks & the Rules. Why be confused?
KNOW what works FOR you, not against you!

lol...good to have you here, milady, but there's honestly no reason to run:) Tutorials are a good thing, just make sure you bother to read how the rules affect YOU as new to our forum:) Freebie trading itself is a very simple process, totally redundant after the 3rd trade, yet it always presents a challenge of some kind and between that and a lil spending cash, well...it keeps us here:) Keep it real, keep it simple and above all else, keep smiling - it's a good thing and am sure you will do well!

Hmmm....let me share this upfront - don't worry about how you are going to get this done, concern yourself only with getting a nice, smooth start as this great opportunity is not one you can start over with:) How you start is how you will succeed...or not, and once you find someone who seems like they will work with you (with is a keyword!) and test the water with something small, you will see a whole lot fall into place rather quickly...and that's a promise:) Please bear in mind that safe trading is happy trading...and being happy is what we strive for:) Good luck and God bless!

Patience...realistic expectations...positive attitude...your keys to success:)

I could'nt go green at all, and i ended up giving up. Today is my first time logging back in 2007. What is the best and quick way to get credited for completed offers? Please help and i'll go green for you. IM STARVING FOR A FREE LUNCH..LOL.....:eating
