After getting my PopPhooey auto working again, I was in a Pop-Fu room and watching some of the chat that was going on there.
Someone asked in the room if anyone has ever heard of badge help and some woman answered...
'It puts spyware on ur computer' Then she said.. '2nd of all, it puts something in ur reigistry and if you ever win anything, Pogo scans ur registry and denies you money and cancels ur account.
Then another you says...'So how does pogo have the right to scan ur computers persoanl registry?'
Same woman answers..'Because they are giving you money.'
Then...'If Pogo were to scan ur computer, they would get a major law suit..it's called hacking and that is illegal.'
Same woman...'If you aren't cheating, you have nothing to worry about.'
My response to THIS FORUM...hell, cheat away... :)) :)) :))
These are lies.
BadgeHelp does not put spyware on your pc.
Pogo does not scan your registry to see if you are cheating. They use their own java logs to prove this.
how can they prove it i staerted cheating after i won a prize i was accused of cheating to get and they took it away when i didn't cheat at that time after that i said hell i should cheat there not goibg to give me poop anyway
very well put homer. pogo would have a near impossible time of doing it that way
You are not the only one in this forum that lost a jackpot that way and they also started cheating for real (Its not me)
I figure if I win, it's going to be that stupid toothbrush anyway. I rather have my badges. ;::
i rather have my badges too.instead of a mug or a $10 walmart certificate. :o
how do they know if you are cheating?
Pogo has java logs and they can tell if you play the game too fast. Autos play much faster than a real person can.
:)) :))
just a suggestion but if peeps are talking about cheaters in loby i would not respond to their chat at all
would be quiet as a mouse heheheh :;'

i have the badge for winning some money. pogo did not sent it to me. however, i still got to keep badge and it stayed on my winnings record.
when they said i cheated i didn't get the prize and they took my prize badge away

that's what I heard they do as well. You don't get to keep the badge either.
sorry you guys didn't get to keep your winner's badges. I did.

I got someone prem banned last night in pogo bowl"s for naming a cheatsite. He was running his mouth how i was cheating because i have alot of 200 plus game"s and over 700 turkey"s and i"am on rank 44. So i asked what"a auto program"s r and where u can find them. first he told me to goggle it there alot of differnt site.s so i said if u don"t name then i don"t think there r any cheat"s for pogo. So he named this site and a differnt one i reported him. then he send me e mail to my pogo mail box saying ty for getting him banned since his membership was almost due and then he said he hacked my java file"s and stole my cc to pay for a 1 yr worth of pogo membership :)) :)) :)) :))
:-\ correct me if I am being super stupid here today .. it is only 5:45 am, but if he was banned why did he need cc anyways lmao sheeeeeeeeesh Yeah they get very jealous if ya do good. I was in there one night bowling away with a friend, didn't even have uncle for bowling at that time and was accused of cheating cuz I got a couple of turkeys... those folks need to lighten up! :P
I wanted to add something to this I found very intersting tonight.
Ironically, with spyware concerns, etc.
I loaded up pogo bowl and I never noticed this before because today I installed a new anti spyware program, but after loading up pogo bowl, I got 3 spyware alerts for registery changes wanting to be made by "program", "online service" and something else i can't remember.... Pogo is my homepage, so there was no alternative reasons for it to have occured... ??? :-\
EDIT:
I also forgot to mention that I blocked the request for the changes, and lost my status towards my next rank by 3 spins (the same number of games/spins I got that session)... but I also deleted my cookies that same time, so MAYBE that had something to do with it... for the spins, but I dunno..
So, if you use an auto and win money in a jackpot spin, they don't send you the money? What's the point of using autos then? Do people just use them for the badges? Can you win money through the weekly/monthly giveaways if you won the tokens through autos? I'm just trying to figure out if its worth $10 for an auto.... :-\

no, you do not get the money or a prize. i cant comment on what other persons primary reasons are for using autos. mine is for rank badges. the weekly/monthly giveaways are just that, giveaways. you put your tokens into a big pile along with everyone else and hope you are the winner. if you used the tokens won with an auto, i dont know if they would be awarded or not.
i have been with pogo five years. won one item, it was never sent. the odds of winning are rather small. i cant tell you what to do about purchasing an auto. that is personal choice. i just find they make my life easier. i dont use them all the time. but they are nice to have when i do need them.
hope this helps.

If people signed up for Pogo thinking they're going to win a jackpot, they're only fooling themselves. That's why people use helping programs for games they don't like. The chances of winning anything other than wallpaper or screen savers from Pogo is REALLY slim. I knew about the JP when I signed up and the first game I've ever played I asked if anyone in that room won a JP. I got many laughs and that's when I realized I shouldn't even think about winning a JP. However, there are times I hope I would win in one of the daily drawings but I don't go to sleep at night thinking "I should have played in that room... that could have been me" because I know it wouldn't have been me.
it's worth buying the autos if your after tokens and badges. I'm more of a badge person myself

Well I dunno WHY I'm wasting my time replying to you BUT.....
First of all if your banned from pogo, my understanding is you can't even send pogo messages. (If I'm wrong here somebody let me know)
Secondly, I'm surprised you didn't mention if you got reported or not. When a person asks where they can find an auto program, they themselves get reported. Trust me, I've seen this happen WAY to many times.
Third, how can he steal your credit card info? Yes it is possible to do that h thing...however under my account, under billing info, they only list the credit card type, the month/year it expires and have everything blacked out expect the last 4 numbers of your card. So how can someone get your entire credit card number?
And what's so funny about getting your account h'd?
If I am wrong on any of this people, please let me know and I'll correct myself.
i will not take the time to report people often unless it is over the top. the last thing i want pogo to do is pay attention to me.

Ive won money on pogo b4 club pogo was introduced and i was supprised when i got a cheque in mail , took about 1 to 2 months to arrive but it did arrive and yes i put it into my bank a/c and it passed , cost me 15bucks for some kinda exchange rate thing though ., i think now days things would be different as to them actually sending cheques overseas .
actually, I believe now they only give the money to winners in the US and Canada (excluding Quebec) because of various laws .. but I could be mistaken. Knew a lady in England who had listed her addy as a friends in the US because of it. But it could have changed again

it hasn't changed it says same or similar on winners TOS now as it did then , only diff there wasn't a club pogo then , it somehow slipped past them and it arrived i could be wrong but i think cheque was from wells Fargo bank or something like that , it still shows in my winnings but doesn't say where it was won if i remember rightly they listed Ur initials and Ur last name in a long winners list .
