   | Clarification of the walkthrough rulesI thought it was fairly obvious what a walkthrough was but apparently not for some people. Here are some 'Do Nots' for walkthroughs and offers in generally Do NOT be physically present when your referral is signing up under your link, it can make it look like you've created the account yourself. Do NOT use team viewer or similar to do the sign up process for them or talk them through it step by step. Do NOT create a guide which says something like: Put your name in this box, email address here, password here, press go, click on offer A, put your name in there, click pay, pay them, select this game, click play, leave the game open, repeat until you've lost all your money, click logout, close browser, shut down pc, get off chair, walk upstairs, go into bathroom, take down trousers... Okay the last few I added for effect but the rest is serious. Do NOT do this under any circumstances. Its fine to say click here and sign up, check out offer A or offer B they're really good but step by step is a definitely no no. Basically if you do it the first way the user is just following the guide implicitly and has no intention of actually trying the offer. Walkthroughs are against our terms and conditions and you will be placed on hold if you do this, sometimes permanently and at best you will lose any referrals you might have. Sorry to be so strict but honestly, it's ridiculous.

| Oh and do not use or give your payment details to anyone else to complete their offer. That'll also get you banned.

| You can help them but not tell them what to do and how to do it.

 | I was looking to the offers page...the rule is to not tell referrals also how many money they should deposit on the sites, but on the offers page we can see on the Little Bid Tasty (example): "To complete this offer sign up, deposit at least £10 and place a cash bid. (Open Worldwide)" Can I post this on my blog, where I talk about Little Bid Tasty? I will just talk about were they can find the offer on the offers page, that accepts PayPal, a little explanation about the site (this case Little Bid Tasty) and how long they will have to wait for the confirmation! Appreciate your support  |

Yep, you can do that! Just don't do a guide. (1.Sign up and fill in details, 2.click deposit etc etc) But saying how long it takes to approve, the cost, if it accepts paypal and that sort if thing is allowed | |

Thanks to MovieDrome for clarifying what constitutes a "walkthrough" as well. I understood that standing at someone's shoulder and pointing / Operating their computer for them definitely came under that banner, but I wasn't aware of why this was until now...And with the above info, I can lay out my freebie plans without inadvertantly running into a hole!  | |
