[Gladiator]

Read this entire post very carefully before proceeding.

Do not PM Gladiator or Administrator with orders.

Orders are NOT currently being taken.

Be sure to check back here often for updates.

CHANGES MADE TO THIS THREAD (sorted by date)

11/1/08 - The next sticky order date has been set for November 7th. Orders will start to be taken at 12:01am EST November 7th and end at 12:01am EST November 8th. (For those who are on another timezone 12:01am EST November 7th = 11:01pm CST November 6th = 10:01pm MST November 6th = 9:01pm PST November 6th). All PIN shipments are up to date so if you've signed up for VerifyMe and entered in your mailing address in the VerifyMe tab, your PIN is on its way. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE only send ONE PM to FLR Ads. The more you send the more you slow the process for EVERYONE.


10/30/08 - You can no longer trade individual sticky dates. You can only trade the full number of days you have ordered.

9/14/08 - All of the sticky dates have been sent out so everything is wrapped up. If you haven't received dates and paid, PM, FLR Ads. Dates go until the last week in November so you can expect another sticky date in the beginning of November. Thanks everyone!

8/20/08 - We received a lot of orders in the initial hours of the order date so don't worry if you don't receive a reply right away. There were those who submitted it early (before 12:01am EST) and those orders were deleted. Remember we keep the order which they were submitted so it may take some time to get to everyone, but worry not, as long as your order is submitted, you will get a sticky date.

8/9/08 - The next sticky date has been set for August 20th 2008. Orders will start to be taken at 12:01am EST August 20th and end at 12:01am EST August 21st. (For those who are on another timezone 12:01am EST August 20th = 11:01pm CST August 19th = 10:01pm MST August 19th = 9:01pm PST August 19th). We are aware that many of you have not received your PIN yet and we're aware of that. There will be a huge shipment going out on August 19th. You will be able to order, but you are required to verified (received your PIN) by your sticky date. For extra insurance, you should order your sticky in the morning or later in the day to ensure enough time for your PIN to arrive. A few other things that have been updated are the pricing structure and some of the wording of the times and rules for clarification purposes. If I missed anything, just post in this thread and we'll answer it and if needed, edit this post with that information.

6/07/08 - All of the sticky dates have been sent out. As you can see from the dates people are getting we won't be doing one for quite some time. Thanks everyone!

5/23/08 - Another late announcement before the first sticky order date this Monday, but we are going to be opening two more sticky spots for purchase. So there will be a total of ten sticky spots every day.

5/22/08 - Due to sudden circumstances that have arisen we will be doing TWO sticky order dates. We will be first be taking sticky orders THIS MONDAY starting at midnight EST
5/26/08. Those who have ordered during the first date CAN NOT order again during the second date and vice versa, it is merely an extra day in case those who wanted to order and missed it have a chance to get their order in.

5/14/08 - The next day to order stickies will be 6/2/08. We will begin to take orders at midnight Eastern Time. Anyone that is FLR Verified will be able to order. Do not order VerifyMe after at or after that date and expect to receive a PIN by your sticky date.

5/13/08 - The time stickies will be changed is at 1030 Pacific Time instead of Eastern Time. This will not take any time away from anyone's sticky. This will be effective immediately.

4/16/08 - The rules have changed in that site representatives and workers are ineligible for stickies. Sticky order responses are still going out and should be wrapped up during the weekend so hang in there!

4/2/08 - We're sending the replies out in small batches. Please give us some time to get through them all. We'll announce when we're done sending them out and then if you still haven't received a PM, contact us. Sending multiple PMs will only slow the process down.

3/19/08 - The next sticky order date will be April 1st 2008 From now on everyone that is FLR Verified will be able to order stickies during the next sticky order period. Orders can be submitted starting at midnight of April 1st. Do not send your request before 12:00am EST on April 1st or else it'll be deleted. Make sure you set your timezone appropriately on the forum.

3/12/08 - Everyone that didn't get a reply to their confirmation of payment or didn't get dates that sent in an order please resend your confirmation of payment.

3/4/08 - We are closed to orders. We got a big response so give us a week to sort it out and you'll get a reply in no time.

3/2/08 - We're going to be allowing people that have paid for VerifyMe to order stickies under the condition that they are verified by the time their sticky is scheduled. Otherwise their order will be replaced with another. When you submit your order for a sticky please make the note that you paid for VerifyMe and list your email address you paid with.

2/26/08 - The new date is set to take new sticky orders for March 3rd 2008 as reflected below. We decided it'd be better to get it done earlier as to have enough time to be ready by the end of this round of orders since we're expecting a larger response.

2/25/08 - On March 3rd, 2008 sticky orders will be opened to orders to all people who did not order stickies on February 14th, 2008. We will accept all orders submitted on March 3rd, 2008 and then run all of those orders. A week before those orders are completed, we will set another date which orders will be opened again. Do not send your request before 12:00am EST on March 3rd or else it'll be deleted.

2/14/08 - Orders are not being taken at this time. Please do not send PMs to FLR Ads unless you have been contacted by FLR Ads. See the time line below for updates.


Information and Details about Stickies



What is a 'sticky' or a 'sticky thread'?

A sticky thread is where your trade thread will be 'stuck' or remain at the top of the Paying for Referrals subforum for a period of time. What a sticky does is expose your trade thread to more potential referrals.




Sticky threads are taken on a first come, first serve basis.

You will be able to purchase stickied threads by the day. They go from 1:30PM EST to 1:30PM EST.

The price of the stickied thread is as follows:

• 1 day - $30
• 2 days - $55
• 3 days - $75

You must have your FLR Verified (through VerifyMe) to be eligible to order stickies. You can sign up for VerifyMe by clicking the Home tab and then under FLR Tools, click VerifyMe. DO NOT WAIT UNTIL 3 DAYS BEFORE A STICKY ORDER AND EXPECT TO RECEIVE YOUR PIN IN TIME. It takes at least two weeks from signup for VerifyMe to get your PIN. Do not wait until the last minute.

Site owners and site representatives and/or workers are not eligible for stickies. More information about advertising on FLR can be found here: Free Lunch Room - Advertise on FLR

You will be able to order a MAXIMUM of THREE (3) consecutive days TOTAL of having a stickied thread. You can also order one or two days to have your trade thread stickied, but they must be in consecutive days.

There will be 10 threads stickied per day.

A day will be announced when all orders will be taken during that 24 hour period.

To order your thread be stickied, you must send a Private Message to FLR Ads when orders are being taken with the following information:

• The number of days you are purchasing to have you thread stickied.
• URL to your trade thread that is to be stickied.

Those who have had submitted an order will receive a message back on how much needs to be paid and where to send it. When the payment is made please reply to the message you receive with the PayPal email address the payment was sent from and then you'll receive your sticky dates.

You must be able to pay for the sticky when submitting an order. If you are unable to, then your order will be void and the next person will take the spot.

A week before the previous orders will be finished, we will make an announcement when the next day orders will be taken. Please see the time line at the beginning of this post to see when the next order date is.

You will not be able to choose the days you want the sticky. Whichever spot is the next one available will be the one given.

You cannot sell or transfer stickies to another member, but you can trade sticky dates. You must send a PM to Gladiator to verify the switch.

Do not use the FLR Donations link to send any money for sticky payments.

Here are a few of the testimonials about Stickies:

Let me tell you a sticky will give you more business than you can handle! Be prepared! : ) During the 7 days my sticky was up, I set up 89 trades that were SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETED! On my 7th day, I counted that I had profited (after paying for greens) $1586!!! I was totally amazed! And all the financial investment I'd put into it was $50 for the sticky!

Overall, just during the sticky weeks, I set up over 180 trades. Of those, about 130 went green. Thus, my gross earnings ended up to be over $5000. The best part about the sticky, though, is that the weeks after the sticky tend to be busier as well. As Trophy threads are posted and referrals from the sticky week recommend me to others, I end up with a tremendous follow-up after a sticky.

I entered more than 100 trades into my Trade Manager that week…and in that week I completed at least 30 of those trades and cashed out several sites that week for a total of $1200.00+ in the one week…but that isn’t even the best part. The following week I was still busy with repeat traders and greens coming in from the week before…I had another very successful week cashing out at least $1000.00. Even into the third week I was still picking up quite a few trades and the greens kept coming in…my iTR had risen by at least 50 and my paypal was the highest it had been since I started trading! ~Lucky777

I had a ton of questions that I asked from my mentor and two other people. For me it was a crash course in method 2. I loved it!! I made $1000 from it and still have some people that I am working with, so technically, It will end up being more when they all green. I also made a lot of new friends. My TR went from 6 to 50. I can't complain there either! For me it was a blessing. Thank you for the opportunity!

It was Dec 31- Jan 6th. I set up about 80 trades in total during that week, about 50 of those greened during the week.
My sticky carried over to the following 2 weeks doing multiple trades with refs and people still greening that hadn't greened during that week. After it was all said and done I profited over $2000.00 from that 1 week of my sticky. My trophy thread says it all!
And if I haven't said it before..THANKS for letting me have that chance

I make close to 5k that week, and still had residual coming in for at least a week and a half later! I have told Admin and Glad several times that I would happily pay much more than is required, there is no way I will ever regret it! Just to kind of show you, here is a link to my trophy case thread from that week. Stickys on FLR rock and I cant wait to get another one! Thanks guys! Seffie

I would cash out on a site at night and when I woke I would have money in paypal account. I cleared approx $1,040.00 paypal and an Xbox360Elite.
Can't wait to do it again, well worth it.
