We’ve made some minor improvements and cosmetic changes that we hope you like, take a look around and let us know what you think!

One addition made to help new users with the different ways to earn, was by adding an ‘Info’ and/or ‘Tips’ help drop down to each earn page.

Help us improve new user experience by suggesting any critical information or “million dollar tip” that we may have missed, on any earn page with a dropdown, and we’ll credit your account with 50 points if we use your suggestion.

Please respond to this thread with your suggestion(s), NUMBERING EACH CLEARLY.

Love it! A nice helpful tip for offers converting, you may use this if you want.

Tip #1: Disable any Ad-blocking software, in rare cases it doesn’t allow the offer to complete.

Disabling Ad-Block may help in some cases! Hope that helps (: Will give more if i can think of any.

Tip #2: (For Email) It is recommended to not use temporary emails like Disposable, or 10minutemail, for some offers wont complete because of a temporary email. (You can word it differently, but another tip!)

Tip #3: Tired of typing everything? Auto-Fill forum programs or built-in into your web browser may help completing offers quicker. (Remember to fill it out with Valid Information, and always double check your info.)

#3

Internet Explorer doesn’t seem to credit as much as other browsers. You can possibly suggest to have Firefox or Google Chrome rather than internet explorer to better assure the members of offers crediting.

#4

I don’t want to take credit for this suggestion, as Rewardsgalore suggested/commented this:

Rewardsgalore
SENIOR | Thanked: 0 | 5:18 PM
just too many uses of gradientsx

Rewardsgalore
SENIOR | Thanked: 0 | 5:19 PM
they need to be more subtle :stuck_out_tongue:

I do believe that he commented on the notification box specifically. In addition, if this suggestion is used, please credit it to Rewardsgalore :stuck_out_tongue:

  1. BUG - Bold in IM is broken in non-forum pages

pictures first :3

FORUM - http://gyazo.com/edf75f6d34b91995cfa3a355cc28c8d6
HOMEPAGE - http://gyazo.com/873c4f223d615d934f093055715fb2f8

As you can see, when IMed on the forum, the normal bold shows up. But when IMed on the homepage, the bold text is… not that bold and can easily be confused with the normal text. However, it is still (a little) bolder than the surrounding normal text. The chat text in the forums is also bigger than the chat text in the homepage.

But personally, I think it’s great! I’ll be on the lookout for bugs, typos, or the like.

#5

I think a video run though of the site would be a good idea for new users. I know they have them on Youtube, but there should be an optional tutorial video on this site.

#6

  1. Mention in the games drop down that you can receive anywhere from 1-5 points.

  2. For paid to click, maybe mention that using multiple IP addresses can result in a ban.

  3. In tasks maybe mention that certain tasks credit at the end of the day (such as the answering questions task)

  4. Maybe include the daily poll in the earn menu

  5. For coin offers you can mention that if the offer doesn’t get credited you can always get credited by sending a report to the respective sponsor. In the report you would need to have proof such as a confirmation email or screenshot.

  6. Mention that for download offers you should make sure you have an anti-malware program such as Malwarebytes.

  7. For some offers that have popups, its best to keep the popups open just in case it is required for offer completion.

  8. Some of the drop downs overlap the offer, and the text is hard to read, as shown in this pic: http://i40.tinypic.com/k1x9uh.png

I’ll see if i can come up with more xD

Suggestion for the site

My suggestion would be to add a jackpot or raffle system. It would work by earning a set amount of raffle tickets each time you complete an offer, depending on you rank. So for each offer done by a Rookie: 1 raffle ticket, 2 for a junior, 3 for a senior and so forth.

With the raffles they’ve collected, users could place them towards rewards the site is offering like game codes etc, or (preferably) the raffles could be used to a jackpot system. Each raffle ticket entered would contribute to .05 points, raising the jackpot as more people entered.

Then with the prize raffle maybe 1 or 2 people get the prize, but with the jackpot the points could be split to people who have entered, depending on the amount of points the months jackpot could be split between 5 or 10 people depending on the size of the jackpot.

The draw date for the raffles could be on the last day of the month with the winner being notified by email.

I hope you like my idea and can fix any flaws you see. Thanks for your time :slight_smile: Happy Earning :smiley:

Game Points

Ok, my I have a way that can improve you by a lot. First of all to the game. make it so that you have a sidebar on what you have to do to get points. Like for example, play 5 hrs and get 5 points or whatever. Secondly you can add more ways to get points like like Rewards1 on facebook or whaterver. Lastly you can make a new level system. The points trading should be from the start since someone might do something to someone who is a rookie and that person might want to thank them so they should be able to give points from the very start.

#10
  1. Can’t people AFK for 5 hrs around the clock to get points?
  2. Rewards1 had a page but it was sadly blocked on facebook :frowning: That’s why you can’t post your ref link on Facebook.
  3. The reason I think Rookies can’t send/receive points is to prevent begging. Also, it prevents people who might abuse the system. For example, someone may keep completing the Beginner’s quest on multiple accounts and send the points to the main account.

SUGGESTION #1

A new suggestion for the mentor system, because if the mentor program opens up to more users, the random giving of trainees will need to change.

A loyalty rank system thingy majig.

When you help a trainee, each person who rates you 4-5 stars will give you an additional “loyalty point” towards the “loyalty ranks”.

The higher your loyalty rank, the more possible trainees you can have at any 1 time. Lets say loyalty rank 3 (requires 50~ trainees credited) can receive a maximum of 3 trainees at any 1 time.
Another alternative is a % type system. The higher your rank, the more chance of getting a trainee.

This update to the mentor system will mean more trainees will be given to helpful people, and newer mentors will have an easier time settling in! It also rewards loyal users of the mentor system by giving them a higher earning potential.

SUGGESTION #2

Tutorial Video on-going contest.

We need a tutorial video page, right? Of course, it’s an easy way to get critical information to new users. So how about creating a way to submit videos to you guys, and if you video is chosen the user who created the video earns points. And you can display the video on the Tutorial Video page.

TIP #1

On the Tasks page have something along the lines of, “Don’t give up! Some tasks pay a small amount but can be completed multiple times!”

TIP #2

On the Daily Survey page have something along the lines of, “Use correct and consistent information to improve your chances of qualifying for a survey!”.

TIP #3

On offers pages put something like, "Remember, the offer sponsors (Or whatever) want you to use the website or download. So navigate around and use some of the features.

TIP #4

For offers put, “All offers are required to meet certain standards to be used, however you should still have a basic anti-virus (Suggestion: Microsoft Security Essentials, and MalwareBytes Anti-Malware), and to use Sandboxie for easy deletion of rogue programs!”.

TIP #5

For offers tips, “Check out the recently credited section on the homepage to see what other users on Rewards1 are doing!”

Hope this helps, and to the team of Rewards1, keep up the good work! :slight_smile:

Rewards1 Tip

Tip: The dropdown menu displaying recent offers completed is difficult to view because it is black on a black background; changing it to a different color such as white will make it easier to see.

#15

Tip #1 There should be a button to be able to tweet or share on facebook with your friends about this website

#16

Are the Special Offers removed? I don’t see them anywhere.

#17

First suggest:
All player (except rookie player) can create banner and uplode and all plater can rate and use them.
Second:
Give more point for player that do daily poll regularly.

#18

Suggestion for site: On the homepage, have an introduction video with
testimonials.

Suggestion 2: Put video offers (such as advertisements or music videos) as a separate page.

Suggestion 3: Let rookies send points, with a maximum of about 50 every 24 hours.

Suggestion 4: Reduce the censoring a small bit! Sometimes when trying to say a word, the censor will pick half the word up and mute you!

Suggestion 5: Make a R1 toolbar that you could install to your browser! It could tell you your points/cash, and have the search and win feature installed!

Tips for rookies:

Tip 1: When completing an offer, make sure to use the email address you signed up to R1 with. Most offers do not credit fake/temporary emails.

Tip 2: When completing tasks, if you are a few letters short, don’t do something like putting fifty random letters/dots to fill up space, just think of longer words that mean the same as the original words!

Tip 3: Special offers credit in coins! The exchange rate is 2 coins = 1 point. I would strongly recommend NOT to do special offers worth 1 coin, as that is 0.5 points.

#19

they should have better games:D

  1. If an other doesn’t credit, don’t give up its not the end of the world, try anther one and once you get the hang of it, you know that it’s worth your time for sure.
