Just so there is no confusion, yes this monthly contest is still active. You can check if it's active in the 1st post. If you see the bold green text that says ACTIVE then the contest is still active.


IMPORTANT NOTES


  • As stated in the terms, any cheating is not allowed. Creating email accounts automatically in order to register many forum accounts is cheating. If you plan on using Gmail or Yandex to register hundreds of accounts fast then do not even bother since it is a waste of time.


  • This contest is for referring REAL members to Forex Zone. Real members spend time online and perform other functions like replying to posts and liking posts. They do not make 10 posts and disappear forever.


  • It is just as easy for you to win this contest with 5 real referrals as it is in creating 500 fake referrals. I would rather pay for 5 real referrals than 500 fake referrals.


  • Members who cheat from this point forward may not be paid! I have tolerated a lot of cheating up to this point, but enough is enough.

should you apply these rules from the beginning, maybe I can add a little by adding a tool that makes the online ID forum one day, it will be more secure!

Yes, maybe, but the amount of cheating and the methods used were not anticipated. It has been an evolving contest with new changes coming as needed.

this is only fair, looking for real forum member referrals, not abal member abal. I will try to follow if the rules are indeed going well.

I agree with these regulations,

There has been a change made in the referral system. An active referral is a referral which has made at least 10 posts and spent a minimum of 1 hour online. The time requirement will help prevent cheating of the system in the future. The forum statistic numbers have been updated accordingly. No other changes have been made.

It was clear from the three winners last month the men who committed the highest number of cheats from thousands of referrals are now only 15.

Very good rules to prevent fraud

Here are the winners of the Forex Zone Monthly Contest:


  • 1st Place: DewaFx
  • 2nd Place: YoungTrader
  • 3rd Place: zanurreload


IMPORTANT NOTES:

  • The Forex Zone Monthly Contest is now PAUSED until further notice. This will give time to clean up junk posts, remove any fake members, and to make any changes to the contest. The status of the contest can be seen in the 1st post. Also, any future news about the contest will be posted in this section and also on the forum's homepage.

  • Several members were disqualified because of cheating. As mentioned in post #363 and as stated in the terms since day #1, cheating is not allowed!

  • It's better to have 1 REAL member referred than a 100 fake referrals. I would gladly pay the same money to an honest member for making 1 genuine referral than paying a dishonest member for making 100 fake referrals. Fake referrals have little value, bring harm to the forum, and waste our time!

  • Here are examples of how cheating has been happening: self-referring multiple accounts, creating many email addresses automatically with software for the sole purpose of registering many forum accounts, using fake email addresses that do not exist and are never checked after the registration process, referred members plagiarizing other member's post to quickly meet the 10 post minimum.

congratulations to the winners, this forex.zone Forum is great.

don't cheat in every contest, follow the rules well.

admins will give you an honest rating rather than a cheat that makes forex.zone forum a lot of spamers.


please each member please follow these easy rules

Thank you Admin, indeed I see there are a lot of cheating in this contest. I would like to propose to the Admin to make rules even more difficult, new referrals must verify with the original telephone number and email. Then referrals that enter statistics must be online for at least 10 hours and make posts of at least 50.

how is dewafx chosen as the winner? while he is also cheating the system, see how he makes his own referrals in just a few minutes.
Every member on the list could be considered as cheating at one point in time. If I selected no members, then members would complain about that too.

Your screenshot shows September referrals. That is old information considering it's December now. I spent a lot of time considering who to choose as winners. And I do not want to spend more time explaining my decisions or proving to you anything.
