Neobux venting...

Hay guys...

Ok, so you know neobux, the site I was talking about a couple posts ago? Well everything is well and good on it, and in fact, I've made a little 15-week game plan for spending, earning, certain important points, etc. In order to start this up, I've been waiting impatiently like a little kid wanting his ice cream so I could rent my referrals (you can only rent every 7 days). Today is that day, and I wanted to rent the maximum, which is 100 referrals and 25 bucks. Now there's a chain of annoying events...

1. In order to buy these referrals, I need to use paypal. I only have 19.64 in my Paypal.
2. So, I need to withdraw some money from my bank account. Oh, it'll take 3-5 business days?
3. Whatever, I'll just try and set up my bank account that I was planning on using for Paypal anyway.
4. Ok, so it charged two under a dollar charges that I need to confirm? Well, I'll just look at my online bank statement.
5. Oh, I don't have an account? I'll just make one. Oh, I need a PIN shipped to me first that will take 5 business days?
6. *Sigh* Fine, then I'll just go to the bank in person. Oh...it's not showing up on my bank statement...that's just...great...
7. Grr, fine! I'll just wait until that PIN comes in the mail, so I look at the charges Paypal made so I can confirm the bank account so I can withdraw money so I can buy referrals next week...

NOT OVER YET

8. Ok, so I'll just buy the next increment down, 70 referrals. Ok, perfect it costs $17.50, I can afford that. Wait, I can only transfer money to neobux from paypal IN INCREMENTS OF 5?! WTF!!!
9. ...I guess I'm buying 50 referrals instead of 100 then. Things will just take a bit longer to get started.

It's not the problem that bothers me, it's really no big deal to get 50 less referrals in one week, it just means it'll take a week longer to start my plan up. It's just the EXTRAORDINARILY ANNOYING chain of events that happened. ...Yeah so that's it for today, I have a couple other noteworthy new things to show you guys, but then my blog is just going to probably be talking about the new things I introduced to you.

If this blog didn't totally discourage you, here's neobux. It's not neobux's fault, I'm totally excited about my little plan (which is...just renting referrals actually, that's the plan) and neobux is a great site.
