How did you find DDF?
« on: January 18, 2012, 06:46:55 PM »
i thought this would be an interesting thread to have. i was always curious how so many people found the forum (against other forums which are much larger and are on top pages on google)
so please post where you first heard of DDF, whats the reason you were told about it or inquired about it, and how many referrals you gave to people about DDF and because of you they're hooked on it!
ill start and please add any other details if i missed out on something:

Where/Who: Dan*
Why: i needed to a cell phone plan in israel**
Referrals: 3

*which im forever thankful for! :)
**Big thanx to Chaikel

maybe clarify what that means so no one gets a misunderstanding and then the topic just goes south.

do u mean that in a good/bad way? like you'll only tell people if things change around here, or certain things happen here?
im just trying to figure out why the need to post that line?

Cbs – I am not looking to take this OT. I gave an honest straight forward answer. No hidden meaning. If someone asks me (and they will) if it is worth their time to join DDF I will give them an answer based on what they are looking for.

ChAiM'l - TY!

Where/Who:Thru the Main-site that I used to follow daily
Why:I started seeing Dan posting about that a lot on the main site.

I would add a category:
first topic you posted:About the Amex insite program.
this should include only posts that you added info, not just like: "Help!!! what credit card should I use for my business?!" etc....... :) :) :)

DDF wasn't my idea. I didn't refer Dan, I misunderstood the referral field (  :-[ ). Dan referred me.

I've told lots of people about DDF, some are active members, but I don't know if they want me to post their DDF names.

and Dan just ignored you!  :o

He still does :D
