Whats up with the 30 post limit in the 12 hours? ( sarcastic voice )Why would you do suck a thing? ( end sarcastic voice )

WHY? though.

You said and I quote from this link: http://www.einvesting.com/purchaseedollars.htm

"*IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER*

Purchasing e$ WILL NOT help your chances at winning the monthly prize! You have as much of a chance winning the monthly competition with the starting 1000 e$ as you would with 1,000,000,000 because the game is based on percentage increase. Please note that by purchasing e$ you in NO WAY have an advantage! "

end quote

So you said your self how much e$ you have doesn't matter. So why punish people who want to post on forums and have a little bonus?

It helps to stop the insignificant spam posting, you know, posting just to post and not really having anything to say. Smile

I know ive only been here a couple of days but it looks like there is almost no spamming at all. And most people dont post 30 or more a day. But don't punish people like me! LOL!

As long as the posts remain intelligent I don't think that a limit would be neccasary. I joined recently and enjoy reading the posts. Most of them are quite informative. At the same time, 30 posts a day is a lot.

At one point on the forum you stopped getting paid after your first 20 posts within a 24 hour period. That was then changed to 40 in 24 hours. It is now set up this way. I think it did help cut down on spam posting back when the off-topic board paid even. At that time people would post in the true/false thread just to rack up posts and e$.

I never knew there was a 30 post limit. But, hey forum rules are rules. Sorry, I guess maybe they have had problems before. So, just make your 30 post longer and worth more. Instead of just one liners! Just my two cents!

I dont recall my post as spam because well basically i was giving MY opinion. I just come up with something, if you really want to limit something because of spam then Make a minimum amount of characters that a post can have.

30 posts is a lot of posts to make in one day, even if you are a new member. Not only does it cut down on all the spam, and posting for e$, but it also ensures that people will come back to eInvesting, and not just post 50 posts in one day and then get bored...

Just my opinion, but I think 30 posts is plenty for one day.
I've posted a lot a couple of days, and I wasn't even aware there was a limit.
If you really like to post that much there are free message boards here and there, and even blog sites which you can make money at, but usually have to pay into.

There's my 2 cents. Shocked Laughing

I'm not saying this post was spam, but looking at your other posts made today I would say you are a spammer. Let me use your words:"Just giving MY opinion"

more...

Awakened,
30 posts is alot in one day. It means you can earn a minimum of 6000 e$ PLUS any bonuses for posting in "preferred" sections PLUS the character bonus. You can easily double your initial money in one day... which you seem to have done. I think you should take it easy before you go pushing for changes to the e$ payout structure... maybe stick around for 48 hours first. Rolling Eyes

I doubt most people are doing 30 posts per day but you should still raise the limit.
