Another one is gone (4bux.info), and another explanation is given - the remarcable thing in this explanation is, that it's almost the same with the one we 've got when paid.vg was gone; actually the owner of 4bux.info is agreeing with the former owner of paid.vg :
"PTC sites simply are a terrible business model, they don't work". Well,... until all PTC go down, I'm going to try some more and hope to find the undying ones. Down here you'll have the 4bux.info explanation of this site going down as it was posted at www.4bux.info.
:It's been a short, fun, and hectic 2.9 months. However my recent plan to turn the site into a premium member only site has failed. My intentions for doing so were to keep the site from going bankrupt and to always be able to pay the members, however this was met with a lot of criticism. Many people around the internet are calling 4bux.info a scam which has ruined its reputation and I do not see it ever returning to its original state. If I tried to return it to the old 4bux, it wouldn't be the same, it would only last another month at most and fall apart. I was to nice, $0.02 clicks and $500 payouts were not working for the site structure. Part of the problems occuring from a faulty database transfer, resetting balances to zero, and a bad time to do a site change. A premium member based PTC could produce a pretty powerful PTC site, but at the same time it's a PTC site. Because of that I'm going to have to agree with the former owners of Paid.vg, PTC sites simply are a terrible business model, they don't work. They can never balance because getting advertisers is nearly impossible, no one wants to buy 1,000 visitors for $19.99. If you look around the web you can find 1,000 quality visitors for $6.95.
That said, I'm sure you can figure out what is happening to 4bux.info. The site is closing, effective immediately. Anyone who bought a membership, referrals, or advertising on the "new" 4bux.info will be refunded. Both standard and premium members will be receiving payments anyone who does not receive a payment is to abide by ToS bullet number 8.
"8) There is a possibility that 4bux.info can NOT pay its members."
While this isn't the choice I'd like to use, all members registered under these terms of conditions. Payments will be sent out over the next few hours. Also, to anyone even slightly interested in running a PTC site. Do NOT, it's a terrible idea. The sites don't balance enough and are risky. To members looking to purchase something off a new PTC site. Look around if they advertise on other sites, they may be trustworthy because they are spending money. Don't buy anything off a new and unprofessional/cookie cutter looking web site. I will probably never run a site like this again.
It's been fun. 4bux.info Is No More"
That's all for now, but stay close and be in touch - don't miss the news.
