Voting Referral Fees Retired
Subvert and Profit Users will continue to earn 5% of referred advertisements. However, to maximize the value of our content voting, we have eliminated social network transaction referral fees.

Downtime and Expansion
Dear Subvert and Profit Advertisers and Users:
Please accept our apologies for the recent downtime. Our domain host, GoDaddy, suspended our account until it completed a spam review. Unfortunately, in order to resolve the issue, we had to change our registration from that filed by one of our deceased founders. This process took us by surprise and we apologize for not being able to keep you in the loop. Thank you for your patience over the past week or so.
To be perfectly clear, we do not send spam. We only send important messages and voting assignments to registered users. Users who wish to opt-out may do so at any time by emailing us or logging in and pressing the “delete account” button. We have decided that we should take this opportunity to allow all of our users to opt-in to important messages (such as this one). If you do not opt-in now, you will no longer receive important messages. To opt-in to important messages, click the following link:
http://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/emailverifySubmit?feedId=2242913&loc=en_US
One of our email channels was domain-dependent and the downtime may have dropped your recent email to us, so please resend your email so that our team can address your needs.
On a lighter note, we have some very good news to share. We have taken the downtime as an opportunity to recode our site and to expand our content placement to additional social media sites including video, news, business, music and gaming sites both large and small. This will mean more profit opportunities for our social users and more exposure and more options for advertisers. Stay tuned for more information in the coming days and weeks and get ready to expand crowdsourcing to millions.
To stay in the loop, remember to opt-in to important messages. Here’s that link again:

Until next time, Subvert and Profit!
Sincerely,
Ragnar Danneskjold
