StudioTraffic fading out?

While member payments continued to be delayed, StudioTraffic (ST) made another bad move by removing egold as a withdrawal payment option. The act immediately earned the ire of a lot of members. Irked by the "impatience" of these members to wait until full account auditing was supposedly complete, ST owner John Horan offered to close and settle the accounts of members who cannot wait anymore.  Reminisce the events in this StudioTraffic thread.

FeederFund News

FeederFund (FF) announced that existing members must have at least $250 in their account balance, otherwise they will be required to pay a subscription fee. The official FF update goes:

Existing Members with a total balance greater than $250 will be exempt from the subscription fee, but this will not be an option for any new member in the future. There will be no rush for subscription payment. We are looking at the end of February as the most likely cut-off date but we will provide more information on payment methods and timings in mid January 2006.

Find out succeeding FF developments in the FeederFund board.

Jim Hunt is leaving 4Daily

4Daily.com admin Jim Hunt sent an email to 4Daily members explaining that he is leaving 4Daily for greener pastures. Some members, however, thought this was a mere ploy to exonerate Jim once 4Daily fully collapses. Some even claimed that a transfer to new owners did not actually happen. 4Daily eventually announced that "new owners" had taken over but that was not enough to revive the program. Reminisce this program in the 4Daily board in the Pinoy Money Talk forum.
