What are you waiting for?

Yeah that is an i am the walrus reference in this section of my blog header. Fu fu ka chu. :) Don't know why that song is in my head but it's a good song so i don't mind. I notice some of my friends statuses and got the same issue so:

I do things fairly fast on here. I've been using laptops for about 8 years and got pretty good at using them, windows 7 was my preferred choice of OS but now i have win10 as win7 is considered defunct. I have firefox browser too, i tweaked it to my specifications so that i don't have to waste time messing about waiting for stuff to load (it has an animated equalizer theme on it too that i love, i turned off f.lux as it was annoying me and turned down the light on my screen instead). I like to use multitabs because doing many things at once makes me work better and more effieciently - my brain turns off if i have to wait. I've probably got ADHD, i got help from an NHS therapist earlier this year with my concentration and need to practice concentrating (learning how to make skins was good for that and helped a lot, i should get into that again). Right now tabs i have open are my email, wikipedia, another games site, and a fandom site open for a game i play on my phone (i'm getting tips from there), i'll probably pop onto another social site that i use in a minute because i chat to a few people on there every day. I am often doing many things at once on multiple sites. I'm watching Fringe too,am on series 3 right now, it's not as good as series 2 i think but it's not as scary either so that's better in a way.

What i love about on here is that you can do many things at once on one page, rate, like, comment, poke (i don't poke a lot any more as my poke box is laggy if i get poked back), when the holiday games are on i love that because my focus is on this site 100% as i go from page to page collecting free drinks and blings and do get loads of them if anyone noticed the last game i spent 20 hours collecting 20,000 drinks needed for the trophies. When the weed game was on i got a lot of bouncers, it spoiled my enjoyment of the game if i'm honest as i had to wait and mess about putting in capchas (is that spelt right? Looks kinda weird but spellcheck isn't complaining) sometimes i had to put in 3 or 4 capchas for the page to load. I noticed that after maybe 100 bouncers i got a message saying i could do things faster if i upgraded to VIP. I didn't want to upgrade as i don't like subscribing to things on the internet really but i'd won over 100 bling on that game and was enjoying the site overall so was fine with paying monthly to support this place. When i want to just earn some points, or do things that go towards points, i do not want to have to mess about waiting and so getting that message was what did it for me and i put my bank details in and voila i am VIP. I'm annoyed that today, after only rtf for an hour, (using tooltips)  i got bouncers. I didn't just get them telling me i was rating too fast, previously i was also looking at blogs too fast apparently and messaging one friend too fast...er ok. I've had them while looking at mumms too.

Anyway i hope they sort this bouncer thing out. I know it's supposed to be a new site security thing but it isn't new for me personally. Another thing is how can you be rating too fast and the site then stops you from rating but it let me continue to like people when i was liking at the same rate? I notice i am averaging on 200 likes and rates less than usual also and i've seen my friends statuses and they are affected by this too.
Kinda cool that i'm apparently as fast as a robot though, especially as i'm disabled and the only thing that doesn't cause me pain is my fingers (apart from when the holiday games are on, hurt my arms with the weed game so didn't try for as many bling in the next games but still 20 hours of playing in two days was a bit muchand i will pace myself the next games instead of panic playing loads near the end for a couple of hundred points, it's still gonna take 40 hours to get around 300-400 points though -and it will take 300 of these games to get enough pts to become top level also). 

Idk if anyone reads these? If you do then hello, feel free to comment if you like or leave links to your own relevent blogs if you wish. Gonna go rtf on who has liked me while i was writing this out. I have decided to stop polishing bling (never had a bouncer there luckily, i'm just bored of doing it now) so should be more chatty in the future ...until the next holiday game is on and then i will be collecting shit and ignoring you all (well i'll still rtf if i don't get stopped from doing that). I have noticed that rating people with famplifiers seems to make it so bouncers are triggered also, so i like everyone without one first and then do the famps last. I need to rate 1,000 fuponies to level soon so it sucks that i am having to mess about picking and choosing who to rate and when but i'm doing that and still recommend it.

for reading.

Finallly uploaded 500 videos, seemed like an easy enough award to go for that wouldn't take long but i feel like i've been uploading them forever now.
It took 21 pages of the things to get the award. This is on my laptop, no idea for on a phone. Anyway glad to get that award out of the way.

So, while waiting to be bombed to level i noticed something...at level 65 you'll need 14,000 achievment points. Level 66 you'll need 15,000. And so this continues and by level 70 you'll need 30,000. So anyone who isn't going to spend money had better get started on all those free points awards...

Been looking in the achievements this past few weeks (because of the above) and i have over 3,000 left to choose from. Most are doing tedious things for 3 pts. I think this is because the site wants you to level up slowly if using the site as a social media -you will get the points anyway while just on here socialising even if it takes you a few years. I know they also want you to spend money and that's why there are more points for doing that. Luckily i have all the achievments needed to level up, just not the amount of points also needed, so i can just pick and  choose now what awards i want to go for to get them points.

I am kind of excited to be leveling up on here but also not looking forward to it, all those ach. pts will be a long time away for me personally. I've only got 11,675 pts so far and it's taken me a fair bit of effort to get that many. I suspect without spending a credits it will be impossible or at least take quite a bit of time.

Stuff that i'm going to work on after i've done the polishing awards (only going for the 50,000 Le bling one now, if the 75,000 one starts from 0 again i'm not gonna bother but if it doesn't then i've already got that at the level i need to have it). May go for the smaller blind box awards if i can ever find any of those to polish (still not even done 100 cat bling despite having a full set and polishing others sets). i'll still go for the cheaper money awards as well, like trade blings that cost less than 10 credits for 100 pts. Probably will try for the polish 25 exotic bling awards as well even though you don't get many for doing that.

My tips today are around achievement points;
1. Seriously consider spending money on the site, not just to get awards but also to keep it running and ad free.
2. Check out the home page to see when site points bonuses are being given out, might as well get loads of them while working towards achievements,
3. If you decide to use money on the site check out the homepage for credit sales, also the Bling Shop sells power ups on special offer too and you can save credit that way (i bought 10 bombs for 250 credits on sale, this saved me 100 credits).
4. Some of the bling awards recently have been quite cheap to get they do involve trading though or giving bling away (i don't mind giving away or trading the cheap bling personally).
5.a. If going for the free awards then do check out if you can do some of the longer ones and get all the easier ones done with that, so say you need to rate 10,000 newbies pics in a day then see what else you could get with that like rate 100, newbies, 1,000 newbies etc, might as well get them all over and done with in one go.
5.b. But do check you are at a high enough level to be able to go for something like the above, if you run out of 11s or polishes then you've wasted some time. There is no guide that i know of that tells you what you have of all this stuff you can give out for free. Of course you can get some stuff reset like rates for exampleso not too bad if you run out of those.
6. Don't forget to check out the achivement page, it has NEW stuff in there most days lately.

If anyone has blogs with site tips (or are relevent to any of my blogs) feel free to drop links to them in my comments here (or on any blog). Thanks.

Ran out of FuBucks. :O

Lol. I remember thinking i'd never run out of fuBucks on this site and wondering what on earth you could spend so many on...
Until the day i discovered fuOwned, now i am permanently fuSkint.

I do try to make money on the people i buy so that i can buy more people who want to be bought. I don't get a lot of points on here despite doing a lot of things, but it's ok as i have a good collection of people already and am happy with that and the fuBucks pile uplittle by little all the time. Bonus points for doing all the free things is a good way of earning them also.

:)
