True, but it will be just temporarily.
Those entering in Apr2013 need to wait for almost 8 months. We will see how long will those entering in Dec2013 need to wait.

So if faucets are a waste of time. And being a member or whatever takes time obviously.
What are my choices besides buying btc, and mining the damn thing (buying a expensive bitcoin hardware) - hopefully not get ripped off or in a damn pre-order stage.

Forget about buying sha256 ASIC, it is hard to get your investment back IMO.
Apart from signature deals, you could sell goods or services to earn some bitcoin.
Bitcoin race gone? Bitcoin race probably will never end, as more and more people start joining, the race will go on and on. But it might take time, have some steps back. Anyone entering in the wrong moment, can be burnt for some time...

Second, they may give a fair amount as I said, like coinurl, coinad or visitbit (you can open multiple tabs with same btc adrress and watch ads that are about 10s 5x times faster, I've got about 5k satoshis in 10min) or dailybitcoins where you can adverstise or sell vouchers.
You are now a member, meaning that you could earn 0.00075 btc per constructive post from Updown.
So, you can compare that with the amount of bitcoin you got from those faucets, and decide if it is better to join a signature deal and make a few constructive posts everyday here on bitcointalk.
If you want to make money, don't work on faucets (actually, we should call them pay to do, offers, etc.), make a faucet and let the others work for you.
Because it's that you are doing when you work on a faucet, making money to the owner that then will give you back some satoshis to make you happy and come again.

Ok, since everyone here says that fucets are useless, they may give out some small amounts but if you use them right it may give some considerable amounts to start with.
First of all not everyone can just buy BTC, like myself. I'm a student and have a part time job as a waiter. Average wager in Serbia for waiters are about 140e, so I can't buy btc because I need to pay off school and live of something, so faucets come as a good alternative. Faucets gave me enough amount to start with untill I've got into it enough to come here and start with signature posts.

Also can provide enough amount to register at some cloud mining site like CEX.IO.
So don't just go around bashing how faucets are bad and spam with "Just buy them" because not everyone is able to like you. So let's all help beginners and people who need help. Thank you.

You may be able to get a little amount of bitcoin from faucets, but the point is there are lots of better alternatives.
You could have earned much more bitcoin for selling goods (everything from t-shirts https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/what-is-usd-bitcoin-t-shirts-627292 to beef https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/buy-beef-with-bitcoins-504965) or services (everything from translation to designing to writing articles to sig advertising).
This thread got me thinking... so I signed up for one of those signature post campaigns. The only other time I did it, I won 1 BTC in a raffle.
5k satoshis is something like 30 cents. That means you make $1.80 in a hour.
I think you'd better work a little more, and buy BTC with that money.

You would be better off joining a signature campaign and getting paid for posts. If you can muster 50 quality posts per month then I recommend going for one that pays generously for low volume posting.
Hey do'nt bash can picking 
My son made decent money from can collection and selling scrap metal. Try doing that for a day, and see how tired you will be.
It's good for the environment {Less trash} and it's getting re-cycled. And it's a source of income, for a lot of unemployed people in this world.
Just a pity, some people take "trash 4 cash" to far, like stealing copper plumbing pipes to sell at scrap yards.
But I am going off topic {sorry}
If it was not for faucets, lots of poor people would have never been able to get into bitcoins imho.

Most of those are made from newbies with no way of knowing if they are legit or not. I wouldn't trust them.
Ever considered a job? I know it's old fashioned and all... but hey, those old fuckers got things right once in a while. Fuck, you could pick up aluminum cans and sell them for at scrap prices and get more BTC than from a faucets. Get smart about it and have people bring you the cans in exchange for some small amount of btc. Like there is a shortage of beer cans in college!
Stop thinking about how you can get free money, and figure out how you can provide something of value most efficiently.
I don't think the majority of faucet users use them during hours they could be working / going to school. However I'd agree that it's more profit efficient to even look for dropped change in the streets.Stop thinking about how you can get free money, and figure out how you can provide something of value most efficiently.
There is something I can be doing at any time of the day to make money. People need to stop thinking about making money, and start thinking about providing value.

Everyone can realize on their own that there is no way to make a viable income using faucets. However they're not completely useless, or they wouldn't exist. Lots of newbies want to test their wallets out and therefore use faucets to begin with.
There's a good compilation website with faucets and earn sites. The earn sites can pay decent amounts compared to the faucets. It's not about making a living, but adding a few ubtcs to your wallet every day.
Check it out at www.earnbtc.weebly.com
Good luck!

I think faucets are really important for getting more and more people actually interested in (and actually using) Bitcoin. I know I began with using a faucet.
Before you have any kind of Bitcoins at all, it just sounds like internet play money that a bunch of nerds came up with and has some value but what does that even mean anyway.

Faucets still make it seem like internet play money the tiny amount you get. It's better just to start earning them other ways then it soon seems like real money and money that can grow over time. You get the excitement of the investment as well.
Maybe so. But you still can't say that faucets have a negative effect on Bitcoin.
Depends on your view. You might just think bitcoin is a waste of time after you've wasted all that time and energy for dust. I dont think they harm the economy but they're hardly a a highlight of it. People just need to be aware that theyre probably going to be wasting their time with them.
I wasted too much time on faucets. Ah to be a newb lol.
Most of us have been there pal
