why the big pt/reward diffrences tween sister sites?

[theskyhunter]

I keep wondering why there is a big points/reward difference between these "sister sites" like opinion outpost-SurveySpot and GTM-MySurvey. take GTM & mysurvey. at GTM 1100 points gets you $50. at mysurvey 1100 points gets you only $10! that's crazy! at Opinion Outpost, 100 points is $10. at surveyspot, 1000 points is $10. why is it like this? its the biggest reason I have quit doing mysurvey and surveyspot. I really don't think it will be long when OO & GTM will be the same way.

the points per survey are never the same though.. granted they try to get away with paying way less on Surveyspot than on OO.. like 30 minutes for a dollar..  that's why I never see it as points but always figure the money value before starting a survey..

Good point and I have no idea as to why.  I belong to both OP & Survey Spot.  It took me about 18 months to get 1000 points to cash out and have not done another survey since.  No way am I going to do a 30 minute survey for 30 points (30 cents).  Once every quarter they would have a good one (300 points for 30 minutes) but was DQ on about 70% of them.  I even complained about their low paymnets but I guess they have enough suckers taken these for them not to change.

 

Toluna is the same way. 2,000 points for 20 minutes which is about 75 cents and if you do not cash out within a year of earning them, you lose it.  (see my post on this in this same  area)
