>:(( I was playing battle phlinx thanksgiving day 2005 and won a $10.00 instant prize.I claimed it right away.&7 days later badge was taken away by pogo saying i never claimed the prize.I emailed EA Sports explained what happened and i was answered back saying i was using auto which i was not....all i wanted to know was how when i claimed a prize and was told by pogo i forefited because i did not claim it and in return pogo switched it all around and said i was using auto.Meanwhile in my email through pogo account i have 52 questions on file which only 3 i sent in the oyher 49 are other memebers questions that somehow got screwed up in my account....finally after 6 months of this BS i get a telephone # to call and finally got someone that actually speaks english with common sense and told me pogo switched there programs around fall & winter of 2005 and a bunch of accounts where crossed including mine.this will take sometime to straighten out....was told to email what happened to me again to EA Sports and things will get straightened out......and once again basic answer came back to auto was used.GEEEEEEEEEEZ .I now give up ...tired of banging head up agaisnt the wall......so becareful all same thing can happen to you also. :ooo >:(( i am sure there are other horror stories about pogo out there also.good luck all..... :OO :'((
if you use an auto, you can't claim a prize
Nope LOL I would have closed the screen out and went along on my merry way :/\
:xx also the best part i forgot to put in was i asked pogo ...ok...if i am loosing my prize and badge for using a auto...how come i never was warned or suspended from pogo...I have a flawless account....( i really was playing the game) I was told that using auto pogo just gives you a slap in the hand you dont get suspended....do you believe that!!!!!!!!! :)) :)) :)) :)) pogo makes me laugh then :xx :xx :xxpuke.
could you imagine if AOL and POGO combined their tech help :)) :)), don't know what brought it up, but it sure would be funny :))
the sad part is there are lots of other players i bumped into that use autos all the time and claimed prizes no questions asked.........now this does make me want to cheat...... :pp
>>:D pogo in disguise.......lol
WOW!! I would hate to see if you would of won more than $10.00. :))
Sorry that happened to you. I wouldn't even attempt to collect a prize. I don't even want those damn screensavers and wallpapers.
it wasnt the fact of the prize or the money it was being accused of something that i didnt do is what got me angry.....i am a full fledged cheater now.....does not pay to be honest anymore...especially in pogo..... :oo
Is there even an actual way for pogo to tell that someone uses an auto? I brought up my sun java console and cleared the contents. I then brought up a pogo game and watched the console. It gave the usual information. Next I brought up my auto and started it and nothing changed in the console. I let it play for awhile and the only info in the console was their usual jargon that comes up when you play manually. Am I missing something?
yep pogo takes your $$$$ and runs....lol

Yeah, Pogo's java logs. :))
$10 can't even buy gas, so it's really not worth claiming. I won $20 a week after I joined and it was gone by the time I got it.

Sorry. Would you feel better if I deleted the smiley face off? Trust me, you can't get away with using Autos. Pogo knows all and then some.

Hmmm... I cant go to the liquor store with 10buckz...less I jus want a joke size lil bottle of jim beam....
Pogo has their own java logs for each game. They can tell if you are using an auto in several different ways. So if you are using one, don't try to claim any prizes. I try to keep a low profile so they have no reason to look at my account.
I rarely chat and I don't run an auto in the same room very long. If the room has a high score list, I check it every so often. I don't want my name on there more than a couple of time. I also watch my stats. I don't play 300 games in the same room.
i doubt id ever win cash to have a chance at claiming. :))
u never know O0
lol unless wallpapers are worth money then im sure i wont win.
I won a stupid wallpaper once. Lame. I'm not holding my breathe that I'll ever win money. And, obviously, if I did, I wouldn't get any. And I don't really use autos.
not really much u can do they don't give a dam if u cheat al long as u dont win money or other prizes. if they did they would lose about 3/4 of pogo lol.
:)) :)) :)))that is so true..pogo does know lots of people cheat..but its the innocent ones that dont cheat and get accused of cheating and pogo takes prizes away from them...pogo is the devil >>:Dthey get you addicted and then screw ya
yeah well i dont care for prizes the basterds got be addicted to badges
I know a nickname that has won $5 and on the first day of joining Club Pogo, they had all of the rank badges for Canasta and QWERTY. They still have the $5 Winner Badge. :oo
I guess its who you know in pogo if you are allowed to keep prize badges or not O0
:)) :))) i am still laughing at my last post

The only prize I'd want to be screwed out of is the eff'n toothbrush... are you serious? Why would I claim that? I get them free from my dentist already, why would I need a Pogo one? You're supposed to change out every six months, at least.
I just wonder if they send you Pogo-branded toothpaste as something extra... doubt it, knowing how much they rip everyone off. ;D
lmao a pogo brand toothbrush???
:))) tooth floss also :))) :))
maybe pogo toothpicks? :))
:))) toothpicks...how about pogo mouthwash O0 :))
pogo brand toilet paper :P
can prolly recycle all them lovely screensavers an wallpapers for a big roll of TP. O0

Yeah, I was in Tri-Peaks one day and someone's name flashed up saying they won a TOOTHBRUSH... who would seriously claim that?!
It was an electric toothbrush, which can cost over 100 bucks now days. <a href="http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008_ZS" target="_blank"><img src="http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/15/15_10_3.gif" alt="Brushing Teeth" border="0"></a>

LOL Lucky you!! Wtg :/\
i wouldnt mind winning a tshirt, lol its more than ive ever won before..
i say pogo should put things like being able to do a personal challenge or two or something like that in their jp spins since nobody ever wins money, and if you do its like $5 and it takes months to get..
so i think that being able to do a challenge would be a cool idea..
i did send that in awhile ago and i got a msg back saying that they would put it in their 'idea box" thing, i forget what he called it but thats pretty much what it was, and he siad they look them over like once a month to get new ideas and im guessing they didnt like my idea because its been several months and it hasnt happened yet.
