If I don’t reach the 250 points for the first contest will they remain for the next contest?

No, we have to stay fair, to give everybody the same chance to start from scratch.

And I don't think that there will be many contests for this bot. The monthly investment into hardware, infrastructure, servers, administration etc. is enormous.

If we win the bot, for how long we can use it?

Cheers

- You can use this bot for 30 days, there will be additional contests at CPAElites to extend this runtime for free.

Intresting contest.
I already have a journey thread.
If I update that , it counts into contest ?

[AlexxD]

Great and count me in!. But I think now CpaElites will be a leecher forum.

I like the idea I really do. But I just think it will not work out.

The most topics/replies are now here are for the knowledge and the motivation. And I think it will fly away with this.

You better can give the access to the motivated people or to the people who keep helping CpaElites an amazing place.

i am agree with you

No, this doesn't count as new journey thread.

@h33ven to fight leeching, a "leecher value system" could be implemented on the forums. Sharing quality content will result in earning points // low quality replies such as "thanks for the share" will lower your points. A threshold could be set, below it, you're banned from the forum (could be unabled by paying a certain amount). I've seen such a system on another forum and it seems that it works well and create an context of high quality sharing.

The current installation of MyBB - done by the previous CPAElites owner/admin H*wkE*e and his hobby coders - is broken and insecure.

The code has been extended by undocumented changes. These changes do break the regular workflow. We requested a list of changes (and list of known bugs) back in April 2019 already, but H*wkE*e refused to send this - and other 80 % of the material - during the last 123 days. Although he took the whole money, plus 20 % very irregular unusual fees.

So, due to his implementation of undocumented hobby code, we're unable to extend MyBB any further. It has to be completely replaced with a new forum software, as written here:

Therefor we startet the current Snapchat bot contest, as a little "sorry" to everybody:

- A little surprise
Preparation of "a little surprise", starting on the 16th of August 2019.
More info: https://www.cpaelites.com/thread-67303.html
Reason: The migration of CPAElites 1.0 to 2.0 has been delayed by months now, so this will be one of several "We're sorry about the delay! Not our fault, be we feel sorry!" events.
Background reasons: Mistakes of the previous CPAElites server admin, missing updates of the previous CPAElites owner "H*wkE*e", missing material of the previous CPAElites owner "H*wkE*e" - since 116 (!) days now. [1] [2] [3]
