Admin has banned large number of users who were running multiple accounts on the forum and others who were posting spam content and also announced that the budget is completed so till any further any announcement we won't be able to earn for our posts on the forum.
Beer Money Forum halted PTP

I don't know that RIF banned many users here. Those people must be kicked out from a forum site. It gives problem to the site and many good members will be affected.
My gosh, how poor they are. I don't have any idea how they did it creating multiple accounts. That was also the problem before of postbucks having members with multiple accounts. I think they're infectious scammers.
I am hoping that the site owner can detect them earlier. I have read the post of the moderator that the site recently kicked out 2 members because of plagiarism issue.
How accurate are they about the detecting does who have multiple accounts? My account was also banned there but that's the account i have been using there for months, i do not have enough time to even be active on that single account, not to mention running multiple accounts. I sent a message to the admin via email but i have not gotten any response yet. That was how my account was banned back then on bizdustry, if i am not mistaken, it was @Joshua Farrell who investigated and help sort out the whole thing and the ban was lifted.
For Administration and Moderation, XenForo software on the default settings, will only allow you to see if people are using the same IP address. That in itself can be an issue for people living in the same community, and if the staff of a forum thinks that relying only on that will tell them if someone is running multiple accounts.
Bizdustry and RIF, has an addon that extends moderation capabilities, that allows those with the power to use the addon, to see if people are actually using and logging into more than one account, through browser based and device based cookie history.
I am not sure if Beer Money Forum have started using that addon, so I cannot say whether or not any of the "multiple account" bans are justified there, aside from obvious ways to identify, like email address use, public and private mentions of who the individual user is, and whether or not they are creating accounts with similar names and the like.
It seems the forum is now owned by someone else, because Mr B himself said that he is waiting for update as to what will be the next course of action.
Thanks for the explanation, it is well though.
That is sad news to learn that BMF is disabling the reward earning program.I do hope the team there can quickly employ a heavy recovery measure to counter act this development.I have fallen in love with the BMF forum and it hold so many wonderful memories.

I think it's just temporary and we can expect the website to pay again either for company reviews only or for booth comments and threads across different sections of the website
It was just an announcement and we will know very soon if we will earn from our posts by Aug or later but I will very soon we will start earning from it

That is a way to go,keeping up a good spirit is the best medicine.I do not want anything to happen tp BMF forum but sadly there is nothing i can do in my individual capacity.Let us wait and see and keep up the hope and faith that all will normalize.I will check through with the announcement.
I strongly believe they will definitely start again with the paying for comments, according to the management team, the contract they got has expired, hence the reason why they halted the payment, it has exhausted, so something new is definitely cooking up that would also benefit members like we.
Yes of course I hope it will pay something no matter how much I just hope it won't stop paying I'm sure it won't be the case because a lot of users will leave the forum for sure
