The Next Wave?

I've been gone for a few days and it seems to be that the autosurf industry might be in for a mini revival since StormPay ran through it. From what I've seen/read in the past couple of weeks, there seem to more and more autosurfs springing up, run by credible forumers in the industry. However one must still take it with a generous pinch of salt when using 'credible' and 'forumers'.

What's particular to me is that most of these programs seem to have started off with the right foot forward. Dedicated servers, precise payout plans, active administrator team and a steady stream of supporters. After a week of observing some of them, some actually do seem to know what they are doing, in terms of running the show as well as planning for growth. I've personally joined some of them and am waiting for a payout before I make a recommendation.

But we all know that such programs are ponzis. If you catch the wave at the right time, you'd be able to ride it. If you catch it at the wrong time, chances are you'd sink.

A couple of other updates

EPaySurf
What a mess. I've pretty much refrained myself from commenting on this too much, but what a fucking mess. The emails I get from Kent seem to border on insanity. Poor chap seems to have completely lost it. The excuses get weirder and weirder, the emails get more and more clueless. I wish he would just completely stop communicating and leave the rest of us who are sane alone before he infects us with his disillusions.

As expected, the official launch was delayed. To be honest, if it had launched on time, it wouldn't have made much of an impact. If Christian is reading this, refunds come first. Why would anyone dabble with the new site if the company is still holding on the their money? I hope this is one common sense equation Christian works out before damaging the program (or his reputation) any further.

Seems like they have switched brokers. Not much news here ever since their forum became read-only. Looks like my plans for a managed account will take a back seat. Need to monitor how their performance is with the new broker and need to know if the new broker offers managed accounts. Don't you just hate it when your plans get delayed?
