- sudojudo 11y agoI used AllAdvantage back in the day, mouse moving script and all. Ran it 14-16 hours a day on a second computer and made $40-$60 a month. Can't complain. The down-side was the overhead, it was a noticeable strain on my computer, which is what prompted me to set it up on a dedicated machine. Pretty sure I was on dial-up then too, which just made things worse. There was a large group of us on IRC all doing the same thing. Little jerks like us ruined it for everyone.
- blackrose 11y agoI would do the same thing today. Seriously, who wants to spend their mortal life actually watching ads? Do they actually enrich anyone's life?
- placeybordeaux 11y agoI have gotten a couple ads recently that I appreciated, in that they reminded me of something I meant to buy but forgot about.
