Well, I keep on thinking about those BAP ads based on their value which if converted they are equal to $0.0125 so I preferably click those before clicking the $0.01 ones.. Sure it's not directly credited to our balance but collecting more points could grant us higher valued ads to click especially in the lower levels. And I kinda think about them as the daily tax stabilizer for not clicking any ad under $0.01..

Clicking those 8 BAP ads equals to 200 points so :
1. that's enough to pay the daily tax (100 BAPs) and
2. the loss due to not clicking any ad below $0.01..

The 100 BAPs that remain after paying the tax equal $0.05 and that's almost always more than enough to cover the cost of all lower than $0.01 valued ads I receive daily.. so this way I don't pay for the filter and still click only $0.01+ without losing anything.

With that in mind I make sure I maintain a balance that only goes upwards (with stable BAPs) simply by reinvesting 2/3 of what I earn.
That all is based on my plan to stay on the 5th level until I get something out of the site and later on move ahead to the higher levels whenever I get the budget to. My plan involves a lot of clicking maybe but since PV doesn't require forced focus I can still do them while at the same time I do something else so I don't care much..

No you are not, basically apart from extending your account expiration, they add up to your BAP balance.
A higher BAP balance allows you to receive higher valued ads and/or more ads depending on which ones are available for your level.

Etc, a $0.01 ad would require you to have $0.01 / $0.0005 = 20 BAPs in your BAP balance.
If you have 100 BAPs you could theoretically receive up to 5 x $0.01 ads (or 10 x $0.005 ads.. etc.).. if you have 200 BAPs up to 10 x $0.01 ads (or 20 x $0.005 ads.. etc..) and it goes on like that..

Also if you're close to the borders of the next level they can help you get there thus receiving ads that the higher level grants you.
On a higher level it may not be a big deal since the profits would be plenty to cover the expenses but on lower levels they kinda do matter.

I just made a request for $134 to cash out and already I have $47 in my account again!   

This is getting scary!

I'm having a hard time getting my mind around these numbers. It is very surreal.

I'm beginning to understand, on a very tiny scale, how lottery winners feel when they get all that unexpected money

Maybe I should just give it to the government. They have been pretty skilled at spending my money for years anyway. Why not give them the rest?

Kinda reminds me of that final PTCBox age.. It was a few days after I was upgraded to Team Leader there.
I remember waking up in the morning, logging in to my account and seeing 3 new referral upgrade commissions totaling $120..
I was so stunned I could not believe in my eyes.. 

I hope we'll get to that point where this would be a typical morning in PV.. 
I've recently got another referral that has been reinvesting the past few days and now he's just crossed 10000 BAPs!

Wow! I've heard reports of difficult captchas but I've never seen any. Apparently the solution is to clear your cache/cookies and reset your modem etc.

I think he did keep refreshing it and, like zombies, they just kept coming out like that 

The site is going through major growing pains today. He's had to suspend the ad issue until the programmers figure out the problem. I think the programmers have reached the end of their skill set and maybe it is time they moved up to more professional network management

Too much traffic is always a good problem to have though

About the captcha, it seems it's a solve media problem. Other sites that use it for logins (like Goldenclix) all have been getting really hard captchas.

Exactly the feeling.. Nailed it!

The admins using SolveMedia have access to a setting that adjusts the difficulty and the complexion of the captcha..
So, either they adjusted it to the most difficult level or there was something wrong with the SolveMedia server passing out only the toughest captchas to solve..

Well, it looks like that issue has been solved now only it's getting terribly slow to work on PV lately..
