OT: ChaCha

[DVCBELLE]

ChaCha appears normal to me tonight. I logged on - got questions immediately - am back to back in a variety of categories. How about everyone else?

Not for me. I tried and nothing. Consider yourself lucky.

I sent in to deactivate my account. I didn't log in all the time, but before I was at least consistent. I just feel like it wasn't worth even the effort to be logged in- yeah, I am not doing anything else, but if I only get 1 question an hour, it still is only $.10 an hour. Sometimes less than that. I cannot say that I will miss it.

The TG list is up. I'm at 253 searches, 100.0%, and 100.0%.

I hope all of us were able to keep working for .20 cents this week.

I've had a total of 2 questions today, I've been logged on since 9 am.

I'm not wasting time as I'm reviewing and critiquing my oldest son's bibliography page for his science fair entry , I'm also running a check on his data computations and grammar usage. I might as well make myself useful as long as I'm glued to the computer seat .

Sigh.

I lost TG last week and it sucked. I dropped to 90% accuracy which I have no clue how. Now this week I was back to 100%... go figure. I will greatly enjoy the .20 again!!!

This last hour I have been getting some flakey things. I keep getting the "you are too slow" response and then things pop up like mad. Hope that stops soon!

 

[DVCBELLE]

I made TG by the skin of my teeth last week with a 95.6 accuracy. I only had one QC but since my number was about 350 I figured I would have low QC score. This week I only had 236 questions but thankfully was back up to my 100%!!!! I have better numbers this week and will make my 200 easily! traffic has really picked up for me this week.

 

[DVCBELLE]

I answered 160 questions today!!!! I am so excited - I really hope this means things are getting better all around! I was B2B and it was awesome to see my balance go up and up!!!

I am pretty annoyed at ChaCha at the moment. I got a QC for accuracy over a, in my opinion, a question that shouldn't have even gotten to a guide.
The person wanted a joke similar to the one he wrote. The EX took it upon themselves to just write the joke as the question.
I gave a joke, as Claus, & not the answer to the question, which by the way couldn't be answered, nor could anyone in the forum find a site that would have the answer. I dropped to 10 cents because of this nonsense accuracy QC. I really think they need to improve QC. (Should Claus really be telling dirty jokes?)
Inaccurate should be improper information. The answer to a dirty joke shouldn't be something we should get QC'd on. Improper driving directions, a wrong phone number, misspelled words... is another story.
Thanks for letting me vent!

Question flow doesn't seem to be bad tonight. I'm up to about 50 for the week, so hopefully I will make top guide this week.

Hubby has already done 350 for the week! Traffic is much better. The balance is going up and up. Maybe it'll stay this way.

I am at 420 for the week! I am so excited - I was getting REALLY worried about our Disney trip so I hope it stays this way!!!

I've taken a few weeks off due to the horrible traffic, but maybe I'll have to start again!

I took a few weeks off too. I'm tempted to start again but I don't need the extra stress right now.

I sent in a query yesterday and never received an answer.

Hi All!

TG list is up. I managed 240 searches with 100.0% & 99.6%.

I hope every one is keeping .20 this week.

This morning I can't open foxfire.
I click the short cut and get a big white page?
I opened it with my all programs file-still a big white page?

I restarted the computer, ran a cleanup---nothing. That's all I really know how to do.


I can get in on my explorer to the net, just can't access FF or ChaCha???

How do you guys find people?

Like somebody who has probably died or may have relocated? How do you go about finding them? It seems like all the sites are pay sites.

pipl.com
zabasearch.com or usa-people-search.com

if they aren't in any of those - then you can say: It appears Joe Schmoe has yet to make his mark on the world (or internet). I'm not finding any listings for him. ChaCha on!


If there are too many then I say - My search found several Cinderella's. Do you have a location and age so that I can find the one you are looking for?

 

[DisneyFan32WI]

Those are great examples. I sometimes have to ask for more information such as: Can you help me narrow the search by providing a city, state or claim to fame please?

I got frustrated, too and decided to take a break for a couple of weeks. I'm encouraged to read that traffic is getting better. I will probably wait until after Christmas to really get into it again.

I am thinking of deactiavating, too. How do you go about doing that?

Go to the knowledge base and click on the link to give feedback. In the dropdown to describe what your feedback is, there is an option for deactivate/cancel your account. I put a short explanation as to why I wanted to deactivate, and submitted it. I have done it twice, because I have never heard any sort of response from them. Supposedly, that is all you need to do to deactivate, and they will send you your money. Like I said, I haven't heard back from them at all- hopefully I get my little bit of money.
