I see reviews stating the site goes down a lot. Although I do experience some infrequent 'freezing', I have not found the site as awful as stated in past year reviews. I am a paying member, love playing and most are nice on the site and sharing has never been a problem. I received my $4 in my Inbox account and now working on the $25 Amazon Gift Card. They have a $10 Walmart Gift card also which does not take as many points. I actually joined because another paying member said she earned all of her Christmas money playing last year and earned much more than her membership fee. I expected it to take a long time to earn my first million points as a paying member but it appears it will not take that long. As you play, they also have a Winster Wheel you click on and win points and they give you free spins when you get down to a certain amount of your alotted spins. So far I am having a good time with it and been playing for months now.
