Ok, after giving much thought about this, I have decided to post a few paid surveys referral links. I am hoping in good faith that many who wish to join these site would use the links I have provided so that I may gain some credit for listing them and in turn you signing up.
All site i list do pay. I am not one to lie or seem anything from anyone but using links I provide. When someone uses a link I provide, i get a small "reward" or a dollar if you will for referring someone. Not a lot,but every dime helps a person when they are unemployed and have no more unemployment checks coming in. No i amnot seeking pity. Just stating my current condition of things. Either way.. here are the links:

For those who wish to use links above. Thank you
I'm just trying to help you out here.. Gather policy (I got busted on this as I'm new too) you can't post referral links... it's a no-no.. Send them via email is ok.. *~*
And since u r working on it this much, you might want to write a lil' info about earnings etc so ppl would be more likely to follow. Just my two cents worth.. lol
Merry's right, but it's complicated. Members of the community who don't understand gather's policies (or just want to be jerks) will often flag anything with a link in it. It's not against TOS to link, even referral links, provided you give enough content (information) in the article. A rule of thumb Kevin gave me, back when he was a gather guide, was that if you took the link out, if you still had an article worth reading, it was probably okay. If not, it wasn't. That advice has been tested a lot over my time here, and it's always proved true.
I've had this article: Online Survey Companies That Pay Me, and How You Can Do It, Too up since July of 2007. Somebody flags it now and then, and Gather always clears it.
So if you were to follow Merry's advice in her second comment, you'd probably be just fine. As it is now, it could go either way.
Ok. I guess i can sum of each site. Instant cash sweepstakes, Complete 5 surveys every 3 hours at a chance at winning 250.00 each week. Paid directly to paypal. While taking the surveys (which are 3 questions each) you have a n opportunity to win money depending on computer generated responses from other surveyors.
Opinion Outpost: Very reliable, I have made just over 200.00 with them. Their surveys are from many different reliable survey companies. They do not pay to paypal, however in check form. Very legit.
Mindfield online: Much like Opinion outpost,but they give you the option of being paid by paypal.
Epoll: A top rated site for a lot of people. They send out their own surveys and sometimes if you qualify,you might even be given the chance to do a product test. They do pay in paypal if you request it, they use a point system, prizes can be for amazon money,Starbucks gift cards, and other stuff.
Youdata: Pretty new to this one,but i have been paid. Basically you click on ads, each ad can pay from 0.03-0.30 cents. There is no cash out limit and all payments go directly to paypal. I have cashed out just under 5.00 and a few that were just over a 1.00.
My Opinion Now. Much like Epoll. except that My opinion now has tiers for points, offering anything from itune downloads,cash,magazine subscriptions, and other stuff.
Pinecone research. Many people who are like me and do surveys have a heck of a time finding a link to join this survey site. Each survey completed is a guaranteed at least 3.00. Option for paypal or check. I have received numerous checks and all have cashed with no problems. They also offer paypal,which i recently opted to take.
And finally: SurveySavvy. This site is almost like all the others listed above but surveys are a little easier. Payout is by check and is reliable.
I hope i cleared up some some. You may not know me on a personal level, but i can say with all honesty and understanding that all sites I posted on this thread are real and do pay. If i can ever get my camera skills perfected on taking pictures of checks I receive i promise to post them. I am also working on building a website. So that might clear a lot more smoke once I get it up and running.
