There have been about 3 threads about this a while ago...basically there's some way for new members to be referred by you while signing up...the number shows how many...a question: Does anyone actually have any referrals?

and do we get any money?
I worked a job where we would get a bonus for referrals. That's what I'm looking for

I've noticed that a couple of people do ... I think Vel has one ... I wouldn't know how to go about getting one even if I had someone to refer, though. I'll go and check the other threads on this subject and see if anyone mentions it.
I think I heard MarkG mention something about a prize for the person who has the most referrals over a period of time ... but maybe I imagined that.

Because it gets asked in the community forum, and most people visit here once every... month? year?

Still, I don't know how to get referrals, neither what do I gain from it.

If there was some kind of gain for getting the most referrals wouldn't that really only equate to a reward for the person who referred the most of their own DL's?

So what is it? - oh, a magic portal, why didn't you say.
This thread reminds me of an early episode of Red Dwarf where they find a rip in the fabric of spacetime on one of the lower levels.

I thought so as well - but just did a search - there have only been two previous threads, both now locked - perhaps this is a lesson to the Powers that Be not to lock ?useful? threads - do I sense thin ice here

He could have been lying there's no way to find out other than going through everyone's records. I'll just bump up my efforts if I'm not leading.

No *standard* ways to.
If everyone entered the referal really, I would have three, not one.

It's a logical possibility. I haven't seen anyone with more than 6 referrals in their profiles yet.
