    There are sites created to be scams, such as Bubblews.    It was organised on the basic Ponzi; everyone gets paid the first time.

    To be paid the 2nd time one had to bring in a certain number of warm bodies who c […]

    I haven’t been paid… think the site wants to not pay us. Give false stories… oh… you plagiarised!   If you read the articles I wrote on Reincarnation you can see nothing was plagiaired, it is just a trick.

    I can confirm from my end. No payment yet. I guess we have to wait one more week and then better wrap up on the site. I mean I tried to have patience but it seems my last 2 months payout and others are not looking to be getting paid. I think we have to wait till we confirm with all the active users not getting paid. If that is what remains then we…[Read more]

    Should the media library be remove from
    Literacy Base? I say yes the Literacy base library should be remove here why Some newbi might think it OK to use the photos that are in the Literacy base library . As I read […]

    • This is exactly my point. I’m not against anyone using the photo of others as long as it is permitted (and I don’t know if this is permitted in literacybase)but also credit the photo to the owner of the photo.

      I don’t consider this as stealing but merely as using of other’s photo. And maybe the owner of the photo also make it clear that it’s only him/her can use the photo by putting watermark in the photo.

      Just like when you submit in a contest where the secretariat is allowed to published the winning entries without any obligation but the copyright is still owned by the author.

    • I agree, the Admin should remove the Media Library because anyone can use it without the owner’s consent. Just like what a member here had done to me; she used my photos several times, even the one with my name watermarked on it. She/he apologized and promised not to do it again. So the solution is to remove that feature here.

    Have you experienced being criticized by other people because of your culture, the way you wear clothes, or your feature? Well, generally as an Igorot, we are being criticized for no reason or should I say we are […]

    • Long time ago, the discrimination to Igorots cannot be denied. During those times when the lowland people considered themselves as upper class people of the Philippines and the Igorots are the lower class.

      Those were the days.
      These days this discrimination have long been forgotten. In terms of education, political positions, way of living among others, they were not left behind if not on the front line doing the job. Look now whose names are in in MMA, in SAF of PNP, in politics, in showbiz industry, in beauty pageant particularly Miss World.

    • Only ignorant people will criticize those belonging to ethnic groups. They do not know and appreciate what is beautiful in a culture or not. Never mind them, they need to be educated to appreciate anyone, who are God’s beautiful creations.

    • Well I was ignorant. But no longer. You could probably do a series of post about the different tribes in the Philippines. Never heard of the Igorots or the Aita tribe.

    • Hi David,
      As long as anyone works for a website online, The chances of earning money are less. Unless he is a writing geek and very good writing skills. Because, now-a-days, those who have creative writing skills get wonderful pay on the go.
      To have a consistent income online, one has to start their own website and offer services to public or provide a feature that engage normal public. Hope it makes sense..

    • I have no problem with genetically modified products like the agricultural crops. I believe the genes of the crops were altered just to become disease resistant and can grow to the desired size and weight it should be. I don’t believe it can affect our body because I believe the scientist won’t allow this to market if it does harm to our health.

      But I cannot blame those people who are afraid of consuming genetically modified foods.

      • I don’t trust any of this. Think of ‘healthy’ hydrogenated vegetable oil, virtually forced down our throats

    • I am afraid of eating genetically-modified foods, too! It is better safe than sorry; so I prefer organically-grown or naturally-grown fruits and vegetables. I also grow some of my vegetables in our small garden. It is always nice to harvest from your own plants.

      • When I had land I did the same thing. Grow my own, and know what was used on them… I’m not comfortable with G.M.

    • Organic and naturally grown foods are better but may be in some cases GM crops if properly checked and supervised without any wrongful method, could be useful for farmers as well as end consumers.
