This change was announced well in advance, BAP activation ads were lowered by 4 BAP/ad.

If you buy at least 1 Bulk Ad monthly, you will be far better off now as well, getting 2360 extra BAP, compared to 960 less from activation ads before this update

Watching an ad - sometimes for 30 seconds - for a single bap, is certainly not my cup of tea ether. sad We are seriously devaluating those activation ads.

(I rarely see a mistake from you SS, but you would be better 'off' with a correction.) wink

Hey, @slosumo, the BAP bonus seems to have arrived but it pops-up some kind of a server connection error when you purchase a pack. The pack is still purchased though (mistakenly bought 2 because of the error) but there is no bonus.

PS: It's only not working on PV, on PTC it works fine.

How about adding another bonus to the first 1$ purchase, like if you buy on the first day of the month you get the rest of the month BAP tax free instead of 14 days, or more click-grid clicks ( 1st week of the month 20 extra clicks, 2nd week 10 extra clicks) etc etc

Adding more value to that 1$ purchase would make it more worth to hold and reinvest inside the system instead of being cashed out.

There were only 2 options to reduce free BAP given away (and it definitely needed to be based on how things were going):
a) deduct from activation ads
b) from bap bonuses

BAP bonuses are much harder to reduce across the line, as some don't even have a 32BAP bonus to start with to be able to reduce it by that much. Reducing that would also devalue the attractiveness of the bonus being as a sort of a goal/something you grow towards. b) option also didn't have the benefit of being able to clearly lay out the change after 30 days.

Choosing option a) does bring the con of reducing attractiveness of activation ad, but overall it is the better option.

We will see how this changes things and how many stop viewing because of this, and adjust the pricing if need be - which we intend to do re-check anyway.

@Vixthra By any chance you can take a screenshot/copy the error you get when that happens? Would help out a ton smile

@unthink We'll see how this goes any see if any additional incentive is needed. One of the core goals with the bonus was for it to be super clear and easy to understand. That's why the bonus is also "100%", as we can promote it as "double your first $1" etc.

I don't think that adding more perks to such a bonus would help much, potentially even cause less sales. If you're aware of those extra features and want bonus for them, it means you're already an advanced user of the website/purchaser, and would buy the $1 anyway.

The $1 isn't meant to give more bonuses to those who already purchase regularly, but to incentivize those who don't, to start.

My bad Andraz, It was just a shock to see only 1, as I hadn't realized it was 5 (I thought it was 8).

Also, yes buy a BA monthly and one sees a net gain of 6 BAP per AA ad clicked.

The fast track queue debt is still showing same numbers from last month, even if the 212k moved the number of the round didn't, i guess u already know but just in case!
Edit: ok, now the number from the round moved, but not the total debt.

Well,

I was only clicking one AA ad per issue day on PV but you convinced me to buy one for the bonus. Only spent $1 on the ad but also did buy 60K banner spots on top so you did capture some extra cash from this 'rich' guy on the site

Can you please add the prizes from wagering contests in PV and ptcshare? It is so hard to do it in short time after ending?  Set up an alarm or something. Thank you!
 I said before that people may depend on the prizes to be in a particular group.
