Creative Crowdsourcing Reviews - WTF sites

Here's my personal Hall of Shame list of sites that make me go WTF, everytime i visit(ed) them. Don't visit them much now, of course.

Userfarm.com - wtf happened to the Windows Phone / Microsoft Phone contest in which i submitted no less than 5 scripts? Who won? Did anyone win?

Talenthouse.com - wtf happened to the Zod TVC script contest and the recent Micromax Technical Blog contest? Who won? Did anyone win? I won't even believe you if you say yes someone won and got paid. You'll have to show a verifiable bank / paypal transaction id and THEN maybe i'll try to believe you.

SquadHelp.com - wtf happened to my 20 domain names stolen by your Domain Name Parkers, oops, Contest Holders? Who cares right? Forget it!

Crowdspring.com - wtf happened to more than half the contests that i participated where the contest holder asked for his/her money back? How do you still have contestants? Are those contestant figures real?

AdTournament.com - wtf WTF WTF you were paying people in fake virtual gifts? Through a plugin/mod that looked like it was from the 90s!!! WTTFFFFF!

JadeMagnet.com - you told me in email that your wtf design of the site is so good that others are copying it? Really? Who?

Prizes.org - wtf, you didn't even catch one scammer! You were clearly just beta testing the whole thing, did you sell the software to some site now selling it as Corporate Innovation Software?

Oh there are many more, but it pains me, to remember all these sites, it really wtf pains me, picking up stones in a barren field and throwing them about randomly would have been more beneficial than spending time on these sites. At least i would have got some exercise. Sigh, i've flushed a good part of my life down the drain because of the above.
