The End of Bing Rewards Bot / Bing Search Bot

[Mayhem]

I feel like I've just gotta ask, but did they give you a reason or a reason to state why they were serving you?

I'm less than half joking, but did anything about national security or NSA come up?

When you mentioned about waiting for the dust to settle (regarding fixing post counts), is there further impending action you or users should be wary of?

1) Yes - they just wanted me to close everything down to protect the integrity of the rewards program.

2) No, not at all.

3) No, they just wanted me to shut everything down - and that would be the end of it.

This same thing has also happened over at **** and a couple of other places on the internet. "Microsoft's climbin' in yo windows, he's snatchin' yo people up, tryin' to block'em. So y'all need to hide yo source code, hide yo IP address, and hide yo search history cause they gettin' everybody out here."

This was the scene outside Mayhem's building the other day....
I think that's Bill Gates in the back seat of the car.

They also had a couple people around back because apparently I'm a runner ...

So we all paid $9.95 for nothing?

No, you had a choice to use the free bot or pay for the program. In the end, you should of made way more the $10 for your purchase, so be happy Mayhem made this for us and it lasted as long as it did.

Are you saying you never used the bot and never redeemed for a Bing reward?

Omg, this guy.

So i paid to cheat the system and it didn't work in my favor? Come on dude really?

I bought the bot twice, got a hell of a lot more back in return.

sad sad day in the community to say the least.

[Gavin20059]

OK sorry for saying that I was just sad for the bot to leave

[DarkFiber]

Yeah sad day indeed. The bot no longer loads anymore after today either    Stuck on "Update Check"and wont go any further. Was hoping to get a few months of use out of it till MS changes things but oh well. Fun while it lasted..

Yesterday afternoon, I received an additional request (via email this time) asking me to shutdown any "activation server or license key check process in your control".

Very understandable.  We're all a bit sad with this development.

I'm in the same boat as this guy.  How many posts do we need to have PM privileges?  i didn't notice until last week that I could not send PM's.

You've got 49 at this time, you need 25.  You should be good to go.

I recalculated everyone's post count last night - so you should be good to go.
