Ok, I've read the FAQ and have been lurking for a week or so. I just want to make sure I fully understand things here. Any help is greatly appreciated

1) I understand that I can't do an offer more than once, regardless of what sites I'm doing it for (e.g. can't do the Efax offer at freepsps.com and freeipods.com). My friend referred me to freeipods.com. I signed up through his referral link, did the realarcade offer, and went green. Can I sign up for other people's freeipods.com if I use a different offer?

3) Can someone explain this part of the FAQ to me. I don't really understand. Why doesit matter what offers your partner has available? "When agreeing to a trade, always ask to see what offers your trading partner has available. There are times when the person you are trading with are either unaware or choose not to let you know that they only have offers where you have to shell out $40 up front and will openly offer trades with you when you have free/s&h only offers available. That is clearly not an even trade!

Thanks for any help!

Nope, you can only sign up for each site once. You can do FreeiPods once, FreePSPs once, etc.

Where'd #2 go? ;)

Sometimes some sites (OfferCentric is notorious) have expensive offers, and a limited selection. It's just a common courtesy, so they know what will be available to them to do.

so what determines what offers I would see? It isn't dependent on the offers the other person has signed up for right? Just what site they are using for the freebie?

and if I sign up for ps3.freepay.com without a referral link, then can I sign up for someone else's referral, or was it pretty much wasted?

1. The offers that show up are dependent I believe on what offers your refs have completed and how many refs you still need (the less refs the more expensive the offers)

2. Yeap its wasted nothing u can do now

Not necessarily true. If he hasn't completed an offer on the account he created then he can use a different e-mail address to make another account by using someone's ref link and use that as his "Main" account.

Users are only allowed to have one "Main" account.

sure he can have one "main" account, but he will surely be put on hold as I was. Though as long as he does nothing on the bum account they will erase it and take him off hold.
