It varies per state. My state is $150--but my hubby's home state was $300.
Check the local library--or call the city/justice court.

My email contains my name and my state and even the school that I attend. By releasing my email, you are releasing enough personal information about me that I could in fact only be one person. You might as well be releasing my full legal name and address (when in fact, you sort of are.)

I would hurry up and make a "dummy" e-mail account and switch the one associated with Eden, then, if I were you.

I went ahead and submitted my reconsideration proposal. If it gets denied, then oh well. I am not going to complain about my points. I will just do what I was planning on doing it anyway and just write my review I have on the way and then be done with the site. If they do not want to accept that my reviews which I have posted links to on multiple sites have brought them buyers, then I will no longer help them out and will remove ALL of my links regarding my reviews here and start fresh with a blog.

If I am approved for the reconsideration, then I will stay and offer my assistance to the site as a reviewer in exchange for assignments only. I will no longer write for products I have bought here and I will do it with the knowledge that this may not continue to happen.


They can keep all points earned after the 19th as with the new policy I will not use them unless we can use them for buyouts or shipping costs. If I can use them for shipping I will not have to deal with USPS not delivering it because of being too lazy to knock and just leaving a "package at post office" note in my box. At this point the points are useless to me as if I am going to buy something with my money I make sure I have the money to buy it fully without discounts, so the points cover 15% is useless to me.

I just wish it wasn't all or nothing. I reached daily limits on some activities but I was just following the rules, I didn't mean to be an evil abusive user, If I got a PM warning or anything saying to stop, I would have stopped.

I wish it was % based so if they determined 60% of your pts were abusive then you'd lose 60% of your pts.
