What do you think about Gratis?
on: June 25, 2005, 10:16:28 pm
I actually got convinced this is real. They are giving away free things such as psps, ipods, desktop pcs, and flatscreen tvs. Before I signed up I researched it on different forums and they said it is real. Msnbc, cnn, fox, G4, and Wired also said the same thing. I also read the sitse testimonials and checked out the gallery of people that received their free thing. I was wondering what you guys thought about it?

What's the catch, nothing is free...
So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

There are only 10 types of people in the world , those that understand binary and those that don't.

You have to sign up for a free or cheap offer (I picked the 14 day trial at real superpass and canceled it after I got credit for the offer) and you have to get a few people to do the same. I just need 5 people to do it.

I am going for the PSP. But I can't get no one to do it. It may take a while.

Just remember that for every person in a gallery of receivers there are galleries of people that haven't received their stuff yet. The bottom of the pyramid always gets the shaft...
Science alone of all the subjects contains within itself the lesson of the danger of belief in the infallibility of the greatest teachers in the preceding generation . . .Learn from science that you must doubt the experts. As a matter of fact, I can also define science another way: Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts. - Richard Feynman

a guy has to be really dumb to sign up for these kind of things, no offense against you Triple Ace. I've seen a documenary about this and to actually get something free you have to sign up your friends and family for that companys products.

Nothing in this world  is free. We are allready paying for the air we are breathing.

No offense taken. I'm not asking my friends or family. I've been trying to get random people from chat rooms and different forums to do it. People I don't know and could care less about, just in case I get srewed over.

No, I'm not advertising to any one here. I would never dream of it. I love this forum and don't wish to be banned from it. I consider the people here to be friends. If I wanted to advertise I would post my referral link. I posted it on steam's forums, which was really funny. I did that because I hate them. I was just wondering if anyone heard of it.
