I do not see why alot of people are negative about what i am doing.... I am only trying to help!

Not so much being negative as recognising that - in spite of what you are doing - it's frustrating for newbies that they can't quickly get hold of enough bitcoins to really start using them as currency.

But that's just the way of things now, bitcoins are no longer easy to come by and they aren't just "maybe worth something some day", they are worth quite a lot today.

Transaction fees are getting expensive is really the point I think.

Even when I started trying to get a few satoshi together (not so long back, when BTC was ~$10) I had started using a wallet at 'flexcoin' to collect up what I could get for free from faucets etc. and was quite upset to later discover that it would cost me more than I had made after hours wasted clicking links, watching videos, refreshing pages trying to catch bigger prizes and so on, just to transfer money out of the flexcoin wallet (always read the smallprint!).

Now payouts are much lower and everyone is applying mandatory transaction fees for the network too. So it really is hard for newbies, but IMHO they need to understand that bitcoins are not just a toy currency, hence they don't come free. Otherwise they are just as likely to get frustrated and give up on it as they are to get interested and go buy some.

Doesn't mean I think what you're doing is bad at all. I'm sure plenty of newbies are grateful.
