I'm fairly new to bitcoins, though I've heard about it a couple of years ago. Didn't even realize that one could make some earnings through faucets and signature campaigns. After my first three or four days of being active in the forums, I tried faucets and earned about .008 btc. Not bad for my first earnings. But the captchas are making my eyes sore. Now I'm trying to rank up so that I'd be able to join signature campaigns, and somehow augment what I'm earning from my day job.
Yes, the captchas on those faucets really make the task not worth the effort. If you want to skip by the slow process of ranking up, there are people who sell accounts. I'm not exactly sure where to look, though, since I haven't tried it and am never parting with my beloved account. It probably can be found by checking out the marketplace board.
