Lockerz 0 PTZ Problem

There have been a ton of concern the last 24 hours about the database over at Lockerz. Not only were people panicking thinking that they lost all the PTZ that they had earned, but they were also spreading the panic via tweets and at forums throughout the internet.

Yesterday at around 2pm EST a database error made all PTZ total in Lockerz reset to 0. Soon after, the Guys at LockerzForum released a statement letting everyone know it's a widespread outage and that accounts are not being punished, in a post the Lockerz 0 PTZ Problem. Anyway, soon after this post was made by the Forum admin "Lockerz1" Kathy from the company came out and made a quick statement saying the following:

Your PTZ and friends are not lost! It's a display bug, and we are working on it. Everything is safe in the system:-)

That quickly stopped the panic. It just goes to show though how a simple database glitch can cause a mass panic throughout the internet from Facebook to Twitter to emails, to forums. Luckily the rumors of mass account penalties were quickly squashed.

How to Get Lockerz Invites

I just wanted to write a short piece on a few methods that can be used to obtain invites for Lockerz.

#1 Find friends and family online, on Facebook, Myspace, Twitter, etc and send them a quick invite. Once invited, friends and family are 98% more likely to sign up than people you invite that don't personally know you.

#2 Join the Lockerz Forum and Become a VIP member for $4.99. The Lockerz Forum is filled with over 5,000 Lockerz users. Here you can get advice from the experts, and also as a VIP member gain access to the private sections where some of the top Lockerz inviters post advice and tips. Many members at the forum have over 3000 PTZ.

#3 Create a site or blog dedicated to the program. There are lots of Lockerz sites out there, but there are also close to a million members out there as well. If you can have your site rank fairly high in Google than you will likely get traffic. At your site be sure to offer an invite via email for those who want one.

All in all, if you are dedicated to the program, try to think up unique methods. It's those people who stray from the pack who end up having the most success in these affiliate programs.
