Question: (Must be answered in 4 or more sentences)

We are rather outspoken about monitors and we stated that 95% of those so called rating sites do not provide any service at all. Do you think expressing our views in public could have a negative effect on our program in terms of bad votes, undermining remarks, ddos attacks and other Interferences?

well i do agree with you that 95 % of them do not provide service at all
i think its good that if you announce in public- though some may give bad votes but not the real ones
and it gets clear on forums that whether you pay for real or not?
all paid members can vote on trusted monitors and show payment proof on trusted forums where you will get more members from.......
so i think it is for the good of investor if you announce in public
it would help us all...........

I think airing your views could open yourselves to bad votes.
Since you don't support them and have been honest about it, those bad votes will most likely be from those with vested interests in monitor scams at least while your program runs as intended.
I agree wholeheartedly that monitors are a bit suspect.
Most of them are abused by the hyip owners since if they pay out the measly monitor payouts, yet don't pay real investors, they still get a paying rating no matter if the monitor's thread is full of negative posts.

Yes you should make your stand against bad monitors who offer no offer no service at all. I have a recommendation. Hire in the real good monitors and tell all the members to vote when getting paid. And also in the public try to make clear which and what monitors are making the bad effect and why. This will be like a eye opener to the real investors and this will increase the transperacy and also no bad monitor will again dare to show their face.

Well yes it could hurt your investment site if the main investors are newbies. I mean really you are right when you say that 95% of monitor sites provide NO help. It is so hard to get people to think when it comes to this.

As far as DDOS, i am sure there are sites out there that are willing to do anything to force a bit of money from the pockets of the HYIP admins. However, you should keep stating these facts as it educates the public and at the same time shows that you are honest.

I thin that is a definite possibility and you probably will get a few bad votes because of this. I don't see that all hyip monitors will do this only the ones that aren't very good so I wouldn't worry about that anyway. I think is is also good that you care about the public image and what the public thinks. I wouldn't worry about what you said but I would post on more forums and have good communication with investors. If you do this then I think the 5% of hyip monitors that do work won't hold anything against you and maybe you could use them.

I dont believe that the 95% of them does not "give" anythin. But the best dor a "program" is to be discussed at a popular forum like talkgold. Whoever has bad intentios can do nothin' over here...

I think that expressing your views in public is probably the best thing you could do in regards to this matter.

Reason being is if those monitors start trying to take you and you are quite it will end up looking bad for you.

Or if you waited till one of them tried something it might look like you have something to hide.

No one will fault you for having your doubts. I personally don't believe there needs to be hundreds of monitors on one site. I think just a few of the top and most respected monitors should be there.

The monitors that are well known and trusted is all you really need.

I think when your views are expressed politely and tactfully, a lot of us appreciate your honesty. Yes, it could lead to those bad things you mention in your question, but alert and caring members who visit forums and vote on monitors could help show those kind of things were contrived. Since you also have a PR person, they would probably be checking monitors and forums as well and could post the truth which would counteract the bad votes and remarks.

DDOS attacks would not affect the working of TTI since there is no back office, though it might at TTI Daily, except of course when new people go to the site and it's down. I don't know what the answer to that would be unless you decide to spend the large amount (I think it's large) to get DDOS protection.

I think short term, those bad things could have an effect, but in the long term, your continued timely payouts, and honesty, would overcome it. If I may also suggest, please keep seeking out the good monitors to use.

It's true that 95% or in fact more than 95% of the monitors don't really provide any service at all.

From what I have observed so far, I believe integrity is very important and I give you thumb ups for voicing them out as this will definitely gain your members support, respect and you are not afraid of the negative setbacks( if any) that follow suit.

I believe incidents like ddos attack, ill voting and etc might happen irregardless of whether you speak it out or not also ie it all could be caused by competitor, jealousy or some parties that get cheap thrill by doing so...

In conclusion I don't really think voicing out contributes towards all the bad incidents but instead it solidifies and reflects your integrity, intelligence and will bring your business to the next level
