maplaver says "Mylot bans you with NO notification!" about mylot.com

Mylot.com doesn't let me post anymore. All I get when I try to post is "unable to post content, please try again... thank you!".
I know they erased a bunch of my discussions because of "guideline violations" but I was never notified about it or which guideline I violated!!! I've sent several emails to their customer service but I have gotten no reply. I don't even receive their DAILY DIGEST in my email anymore!!!
And the worse part is that I'm going to loose my $5 balance because of FORCED inactivity!!!...

maplaver says "A legit survey site" about Esearch

Esearch is a REAL survey site. No scams here!!!

"Esearch.com, Inc. has provided on-line market research since 1995. The company was one of the first to develop an online research panel... and it continues to be one of the best. Our panelists have provided opinions on everything from food items to political scandals - and many other products and services in-between."

They send even less surveys per month than PineCone Research, but they payment is usually higher than $3/survey (PineCone).

'We will typically send only one survey per month. Our clients don't want us to employ "professional" survey takers and so we limit the number we sent.'

We use the SAME email address for both surveys and Paypal.com payments. If your Paypal account is under a different email address, it is best to ADD your survey email to your existing Paypal account since one...

maplaver says "A REAL survey site that will ALWAYS pay you for your opinions" about Pinecone Research

PineCone Research is a great survey site. Once you become a member, you won't ever want to unscubscribe from this panel.

You will be paid $3 for each survey you complete, either by check or paypal (way faster). The con is that you will only receive 2-3 surveys a month.

"One of the best features is the guaranteed payment for your time. None of that awful business of spending 30 minutes on a survey to be disqualified. If they offer the survey to you, you WILL be paid. That's a rarity in the survey world!" (yourfreesurveys)

Sometimes they will send you products to test after doing a survey. You will have to try the product and do a follow up survey 2-3 weeks later (you will be paid for this one TOO).

It is not easy to join them because they don't let you sign up in their website. You have to look for a banner online:

"Do you recruit new members through your website or take referrals?
Presently, we do not recruit new members through our website or take unsolicited referrals. However, we will...
