I'm a dropbox user, although I like the GP's standpoint. For practical reasons I don't refuse to use it like he does.

Now, help me understand point 1) please.

I assume for now that you're talking about the 'get someone to sign up' bonus? Which would be very shady in my world and is probably part of the reason why the GP gets annoyed by people at his university, trying to sift through the masses and find those that didn't sign up yet and could offer them a slight bonus.

It's spamming your own network.



Or use a $100 AdWords coupon to run a campaign with your affiliate URL to the Dropbox signup page instead of spamming people.
