OT: ChaCha

[Cinerbelle]

NOPE, NOT ME! I have NO idea what I am doing wrong. I have NEVER received a QC and I had enough searches for the week.

 

[Daydreamer64]

I made the Top Guide list too. I haven't won any contests yet but I keep plugging along. I really need this money.

I don't know by what parameters, but I made it!

I don't expect it to last, I always answer the same way but have only made TG one other time since June -

 

[4boysrus]

I made it again!

I've actually been stalking the Top Guide list this week! Relieved to find my name on it!

I'm taking the day off - I've done 275 searches this week and I'm happy knowing I'm staying at 20 cents for now.

I've had some really hard questions this week too - and the person's history will be all conversational ("How are you?", Tell me a joke, etc.), then I get:
"Explain the 8th maxim of equity" - right, I'm a lawyer!

I need to up my search total so I have more leeway for next week because I'm worried about a few of my answers - with 300 searches, I can mess up 15 and I'm OK with that! I've had a LOT of "who is person X" too, which I hate!

ETA: I still haven't gotten the email from ChaCha for Top Guide - I just logged in and searched for my ID on the list!

 

[4boysrus]

Ok, I'm freaking!

Last night I worked ChaCha for over 2 hours and was over 1000 searches. Now my number says 961! WTH happened to my other 40+ searches?!?!? I mean, that's like another $6 or $7 that I'm missing!

 

[momof1princess]

i've got the same problem...it says i have 301 searches "as of 8/13". EXCUSE ME!! by the time i signed off yesterday i'd done 400 searches! yeah, i'm kinda weirded out about that.

 

[Mikelly1221]

Well, I didn't make it, but with all the technical difficulties I've had, I'm not surprised. Plus, I'll be honest, after the whole pay cut announcment, my heart hasn't been in it. I've been accurate, but I haven't gone the extra mile-no magic, no "Thanks for ChaChaing!", stuff like that. I'm getting my groove back, though.

No QC emails either, so who knows what my accuracy rating is.

Congrats to all the top guides! I've been one once, maybe I will be one again!

 

[MushyMushy]

I'm missing about 60 searches, but the money is right. So, I don't know. People are talking about it in the forums, so they're aware of it.

 

[Avonlady1001]

Geez! What happened to alphabetical order?? I read thru the list once, didn't see me...cried, then looked again & found my name! That was WAY too stressful! Thank goodness I made it! I was all geared up to freak & demand they tell me why.

Congrats to all those who are on the list!

My #'s are off too, but they are right in a way...I've been keeping track daily of my search #'s....I thought the search week went Sun-Sat?? When I add up the # searches & the # of searches from Aug 13, it equals the # it should be....although, the # of searches from Aug 13 is way off....the overall total is right. Probably just another ChaCha glitch!

I had to cut and paste the list into word and then do a search to find my name!! I was freaking out for a few minutes!! I am so relieved I made top guide!!

Last night we had a big Birthday party for my kids and it cost over $200 and it was so nice to pull out the ChaCha card to pay for it and it never affected our bank account!! My hubby LOVED that - so making top guide is really important to me so I can pay for Christmas and our trip to Disney - the more I ChaCha the better they will be!!!

 

[Tink561]

YAY!!!! I made it!!!!

I was worried since we've had houseguests the last two weeks.!!!!!

 

[4boysrus]

hmmm, ok so I double checked and the money is correct. I guess I sat up too late and couldn't remember where my account balance was! I did my first Pay Me Now, so I have my $$ on my debit card, now if I could just get the !*!@*@!* pin number!

All you have to do is hit ctrl + F and then type your name in.

 

[Avonlady1001]

Oh, wow! That would have made it a bit easier! LOL

Can someone post the link for the top guide page? My recent news has been empty for weeks & I've sent messages, but they won't tell me how to fix it! I found it before on the forums, but now I can't find it again. I want to try crtl + F!

Thanks!



Never mind...I found it. Ctrl + F is AWESOME! That would've made it easier before!! Thanks again for posting that tip! Hope I remember it next week! LOL

Sorry - i should have clarified I wasn't at home and I tried that - but since I was on another computer without mozilla and was in explorer - I kept getting an error message

Did you know you can search a web page with FireFox? That's how I found my name fast (and how I speed up some ChaCha searches!). Once you're on the page, just hit Ctrl+F and a bar will pop up on the bottom of your screen for searching. This might be old news to some, but I discovered it relatively recently and it made me happy!

Congrats to all the Top Guides!

ETA: Oops - others beat me to it!

 

[Pezalicious]

I wanted to check and see if anyone else is having this problem...

I've completed a bunch of searches today, but when I went to check my account so I could know exactly how many, the number hadn't changed from when I started. Is there some sort of a delay now? Before, it would stay current, within maybe a minute.

 

[dawz1026]

It was so busy this ahternoon.I wonder if it had to do with so many people leaving due to pay cut??

 

[Hotdoggie1977]

Sorry - i should have clarified I wasn't at home and I tried that - but since I was on another computer without mozilla and was in explorer - I kept getting an error message

ctrl + F actually works in explorer also.

 

[Mom2micayla]

I made top guide too. Yay! I was worried because I never received a top guide email either.

It's really busy tonight!
