    Not good, not good. I’ll fill up the stuffs that they require and see if they return the money they owe me, and if it doesnt come, I’ll just blacklist Total Rune.

    Please read this entire email, it is very important, concerning member agreements, tax docs, cashouts and missed days.

    Wow, member agreement and the accompanying tax forms are coming into my office at a great rate.

    Just to let everyone know about notification of receipt of these forms and docs.

    As they come in I sort them into complete and incomplete transmissions.

    When I have a sufficient stack of docs to work on and need to “change up” my routine I then handle them in the following manner:

    The completed ones, I send a simple email stating “received, thanks, Anita”.

    The incomplete receive an email stating what was missing and to please resend.

    Please understand that I am receiving literally hundreds and hundreds of faxes and emails. I will not be able to notify everyone within hours, but I am doing my best to process as quickly as absolutely possible. You WILL hear from me, please do not send emails to either Paul or myself asking if we have received your paperwork. Think about it, should
    we really stop processing to look through hundreds of docs to find one? No, that just doesn’t make sense and only slows down the overall process. So I thank you all in advance for understanding and not sending those emails. Emails of that nature can only be deleted as there really is no way to respond without causing a slow down.

    Paul would like me to point out that for anyone still looking to download the required “Member Agreement” and the proper tax forms, the link can be found at the bottom of the main page. Please go to http://www.total-insomnia.net and go to the bottom of the page. There you will see “Members Agreement Page”, please click on it and you will be able to download the forms. Just a note here; when you send back the W-9 or W-8 form, you only need to send page one, the page you have filled out and signed.

    Here I would like to clarify the cashout process, opening tomorrow, July 1.

    This is not a one day cashout. Paul will open cashouts and they will remain open. YOU will decide which day to cashout as best meets your schedule and needs. Please do not panic and think, oh my gosh, I don’thave my documentation done and now it will be another two weeks before I can request a cashout, no, that is not the way it works. You will beable to submit a cashout request any day of the month. Remember that you choose the day to cashout and then you can cashout again 15 days
    later. I have had a number of members contact me because within their plans Saturday, July 1st is not the best day for their individual cashout.

    Example, you prefer to have Monday as your regular cashout, you will put in your cashout request on Monday and then you can cashout again in 15 days. Compounding will remain every Monday, as usual.

    Now to “Missed days”, we have been working up the missed days for the members who sent in their email. Originally we thought we could just extend the length of the individual ad packs to cover the missed days. We did that and found that the script did not allow it and the ad pack still expired on the 21st day. That obviously was not good. We then thought, oh well; let’s just credit each member with the amount of cash they would have earned had they been able to surf.

    Here we run into a problem. Does everyone remember 12DP and the SEC issues? Well the problem there (as laid out in the SEC legal papers against 12DP) was that if a member is being paid without proof of doing anything for it, it is basically considered an investment. If it is an investment, then the program would be subject to SEC regulations.We are NOT an investment, we are an advertising site. You pay for advertising when you purchase your ad packs and you pay for 21 days for
    your ad to be in rotation and viewed by other members. You are also able to view member ads (and as a manual surf site, we are assured that you ARE viewing the ads because you must sit there and click next for each ad) and earn a commission of 7% per day based on the size of your ad package. Understand both sides of this, ONE, you are purchasing 21 days of advertising, you are to receive 21 days of advertising, TWO you are paid a commission to view ads and based on the number of days that you
    view determines the commission paid to you. Obviously we cannot pay you for days you did not actually provide a
    service, i.e. viewing ads or we could be labeled an investment site and open ourselves up to legal issues with the SEC and possible shut down by them. So, to pay you as per the terms of the agreement, you provide the service and we pay your commission for doing it. This means that we must provide you with the opportunity to fulfill your service of 21 days viewing. To this end we are working on having a program written that will allow us to take your missed days that we have compiled and issue
    “mini ad packs” that will cover each ad pack and the number of days missed (example you had 3 active ad packs during our slow and down time, you would get say “x” days on ad pack one, “x” days on ad pack 2 and “x” days on ad pack 3, as it would correspond to your individual missed days) By doing this we stay within the original terms of your purchase, 21 days for us to provide you with advertising in our rotation and 21 days for you to provide your services to the company in viewing the ads.
    By staying with this advertising and commission based structure we feel we will never have to be concerned with questions of being an “investment” site and subject to the SEC. The “mini ad pack” programis not an easy one to incorporate into the script but we are working on getting it into place as quickly as we possibly can.

    We wish to make Total Rune and Instant Money Flow, solid, secure and legal sites that can be here for the long term. To this end we are working on being in compliance in everyway possible with any governmental agency. This is why we have implemented the “Member Agreement” and required W-8 or W-9 tax forms. It is not sufficient to just say, “you are responsible for your taxes”. The burden is on the company to either have the necessary documentation to show that we are not liable to withhold taxes from your earnings or be in violation of the IRS regulations.

    So too is it important that we follow our business plan as an advertising company with members who earn commissions for providing a service as not to be in violation of SEC regulations. I hope that each member reads this carefully and understands that everything we are doing is for the benefit of both the members and the company as a whole. In taking these steps we feel that we are best able to put the Total Insomnia Network family in positions of long term profitability.

    In light of all I have explained above, I ask your patience just awhile longer while we have the programming completed to cover your missed days and allow you to earn as originally agreed, 21 days of viewing at 7% per day commission and to receive 21 days of advertising for your ads.

    We are working on the programming, it will be done.

    I strongly believe that knowledge is a powerful tool to prevent mistakes. Paul has always believed that his members deserved to not just be told, “this is what we are doing’ but rather to explain the “why” behind what is being done. It is because the admin team here at Total Insomnia Network, Paul, Shaun and myself, respect our members and feel that you deserve to know what is being done and why that I have taken this opportunity to give you a full explanation how and why we are progressing in the manner we are regarding both the missed days and the “Member Agreement” with tax documentation.

    Thanks so much, we look forward to a long and profitable relationship with all our members.

    Thanks,
    Anita
