This <i>really</i> screwed us up, we used to pay out our best members a part of the proceeds (the 'camarades goldrush program'), and we had about $50K in our paypal account at the time, in reserve for payouts.<p>We ended up having a serious hickup in our cashflow, paid out the users from our other income and quit the goldrush program.<p>Users that were using paypal and that did not have an alternative way to pay (such as a credit card) were lost as paying members.<p>Since then I've used paypal only when I absolutely have to, and I really loathe their support department.<p>Anybody that uses paypal to receive funds for their business is asking for trouble.
