OT: ChaCha

[FLmomof2]

I took the test yesterday, 10 questions, and this AM woke up to find out I am a guide. Hate having to brainstorm all those categories though!!!

Did you get an email? I have the pay me now when I go on the chacha site but didn't get an email.

Me too

Help Please....
I read the directions for Pay Me Now, setting up and account, but I don't understand where exactly I can find my user id that is needed.

Could someone please direct me. I have looked in KB and on Forum but no info can be found.

I found going through "search" option was easier. I just typed in a word, like History, and it sorted them quickly.

Hope this helps.

I took my sim yesterday morning and am still waiting to hear. I just logged in and it still says "In training" so I assume I haven't been accepted yet.

I think I did pretty good I hope they think so.

When/If I am accepted will my status change to "full trained"?

Yes, before I received an email saying I was accepted my status said "in training." Once I became a guide it changed to "fully trained."

If you click on "my account," you should be able to see your account number in your address bar. It'll be http://underground.chacha.com/guide/guide_profile/YOUR ACCT NUMBER

I got a question yesterday related to how to take panties off, but put very crudely with some other stuff. So I said, "Very carefully." The other questions in their history were all crude.

I had several crude ones this morning. I wanted to put on the bottom of these - all questions are sent to your mom for review. But I didn't.

I like that! I had a few eye openers today, boy am I learning stuff!

One person asked "can I lick your toes". I said "sure...I just ran 4 miles though". Another asked me "how many grains of sand are there on earth"...I said "hold please while I go count them"... I mean COME ON some of the questions are soooo dumb, but they are quick money.

i am a guide in training.

i was at a demolition derby today and asked for the number to a fairgrounds and received a response that said "see this website" i dont have internet access on my cell phone that is why i was asking. i was a little upset about that response. so i sent another question that said i do not have a smart phone can i please have the number to the vinton county fairgrounds in ohio. this time i received a response with the address BUT NO telephone number. so i sent it again "can i have number to the vinton county fairgrounds in ohio" and FINALLY this time i got both the address and the telephone number.

I went back in after I posted and and found it.

What sort of website do you reference for some of these "crank" questions?

 

[duckybelle]

I also am a guide (since June 6th), and I love the stupid questions! (Easy money) However, as much as I LOVE Disney, I am a little burned out on the Miley/Jonas questions. I know more about them than most fans!

How long do you stay a guide in training?

Like someone else asked, what sites do you use for the off the wall questions?

I got 3 emails about high volume, so I logged in after I finished my homework. ChaCha was running so slow, it took me forever to answer 2 questions! So, I logged out for the night. it may be extra busy on the weekends, but I am not willing to spend my whole weekend waiting on the ChaCha pages to load. If they were moving reasonably quickly, i would hop on for an hour or so, but it isn't worth it if I can't get more than a few questions answered.

I guess I will stick to a few times throughout the day, and an hour at night.

 

[4boysrus]

Ok, so I tested Friday night, and I'm going crazy waiting to hear back from ChaCha. I check my email 100 times a day, and still nothing.



I'd no longer finished typing that when my email *dinged* and it was from ChaCha saying.....

Dear Melissa,

Thank you for completing the Training Simulator Test. We are pleased to inform you that you passed and have been accepted as a ChaCha Text (SMS) Guide. You can now receive real queries!


WOO HOO! I'm off to work now!

 

[Bopsmom]

Whooo Hooo I got in too.

Congrats to the new guides!

ChaCha has been hopping this evening.

I was only gonna do $5 and I ended up doing in $10 in not much more time than it usually takes me to do $5!

It was acting weird earlier (terminating sessions and stuff), but seems to be OK right now.

ChaCha On!

Same thing here, well except the homework part ! I just logged off myself after answering about 5 or 6 questions.

For those asking about the crank/conversational questions, I just use the chacha.com page or link some random page that vaguely has to do with the question.

Congrats to all the new guides!

I thought it was just me!! I had some questions that were like WOW!

 

[Daydreamer64]

Wow! Welcome to all the new ChaCha'ers!

Just checking in!

I find this job to be addicting, it's so easy and I think it's like playing a game show- you have to be fast on the draw to get the questions - hint: use your space bar instead of trying to use the mouse.

Anyway, I've been at ChaCha about a month and a half, and working during nap times, weekends, and later at night after the toddler is asleep , I've made almost $400.00 so far! Yeah , we really needed that money!

One thing that bothers me is the nasty/mean texts- I've reported two so far as abuse, but I get bad one's every day, I just won't report them as they take my time and cause me to miss questions losing pay.

So, I just act like I don't understand-= for instance, this one's not too bad as the dis has kids and I won't tell them, anyway, I got one saying your stupid, I linked them to the Forest Gump movie page and replied- Mama says, " Stupid is as stupid does!". Not quite a correct answer but it made me feel good! AND, I didn't lose my money over them since you are not to abort the query.

I get loads of reproduction questions, well not quite that category but you understand! At least once a day I get some teen male saying how big it or they are- I always link to a site that has average size information- and tell them that they must have an infection if it's only that big and they need medical help!

Good Luck to everyone. I used to get upset because I felt that another guide was taking my questions until I learned that each question goes to several guides at the same time. Someone in the forums said to chill because there are plenty of questions to go around. He was right!

Have fun!
