Made about $11 so far, not too bad for searching every few minutes when the box pops up.

3/5/2009 2:07:44 AM

I see Caroline and Dennis P. are working their asses off. Tyler G. is putting in some work as well. But there are 9 other people on my team who haven't done shit yet. If you guys need help setting up your categories so you get back to back questions, please PM me

Also, who is Dennis P. and Tyler G.? You guys please PM me and I would be happy to help you get your stuff set up to get more questions. The system has finally started to pick up and I was b2b all last night and this morning so far.

3/5/2009 10:21:49 AM

It updated how many searches I have done but not my quality rating, please give me an A!

3/5/2009 11:51:50 AM

The quality ratings should have updated at noon. Mine's still 100%

3/5/2009 1:03:38 PM

I'm Dennis P.

I set up a bunch of my categories while waiting for texts last night. The questions started rolling in a little bit faster the more I added

3/5/2009 1:46:37 PM

^ PM sent

3/5/2009 1:59:41 PM

I still have 0%...lame

3/5/2009 2:26:54 PM

^ you will get rated throughout the week too. just keep answering questions. Other guides can give you a "wow" if they get a follow-up to a question you have answered.

3/5/2009 3:55:12 PM

up to $7.10...still no quality rating. I'm ready to make the big bucks and start getting more money!

3/6/2009 12:36:42 AM

I've gotten a few Raleigh questions lately. Someone just asked how to get to Raleigh Times for Western. That made me happy to see that. I put go Wolfpack in the message. Hehe.

3/6/2009 12:39:56 AM

I think they deleted my account..
I logged on last at around noon yesterday, watched a couple videos, I was going to watch the rest this morning. Email not found. I even registered on Sunday night.

3/6/2009 4:09:00 AM

lemme get some info

3/6/2009 7:44:31 AM

they aren't taking new registrations right now

3/6/2009 8:05:45 AM

^ GET TO WORK CARSON!

3/6/2009 11:04:20 AM

okay so i'm not happy right now. I got a question and found the answer, highlighted and hit my save button to cite it and it told me I had to be actively in a question or something like that. I thought that was weird since I just hit OK but sometime it says I took too long, so I figured that's what happened. I also checked my dashboard and there was no question.

SO, now I got a pop up that said I took too long to answer and my status is changed to Away for not answering! But when I went back the ? was gone so I'm mad. Am I going to get in trouble? And has this happened to anyone?

k just did my "readiness" questions. wasn't hard at all..first few I kept fumbling trying to figure out the whole interface thing bc I watched the videos like a week ago so I was forgetting shit.

I really hate the chacha search page bs that pops up when you hit answer question.. Other than that it wasn't bad at all. Guess I'll see in a day or two if I made it

3/6/2009 2:02:12 PM

haha, i just got a creative one. . "my girlfriend got me a fake vagina, what does this mean!?"

3/6/2009 2:05:48 PM

^^ just did mine

3/6/2009 2:20:42 PM

3/6/2009 4:14:05 PM

I havent done shit yet. But i also work 60 hours a week and thats about to go up, so i dont exactly have a lot of time for this.

3/6/2009 5:34:17 PM

what is the benefit of being on a team?

3/6/2009 6:15:25 PM

he makes profit off of you

3/6/2009 6:35:42 PM

bankin on the nba scores right now.

3/6/2009 9:31:20 PM

I'm Tyler G. Honestly I just signed up to see how the system worked. My time is way more valuable than what I can make from answering chacha questions, it is fun though

3/7/2009 12:19:03 AM

over $20 yay.

I get 10% of everything my team makes as a bonus. It doesn't come out of your pay, just a bonus that ChaCha gives me for recruiting you.

So, when they open up registration for guides again, I suggest you recruit your own team. I have 12 people on my team, and if they averaged 10 questions an hour per person, that's an extra $1.20 per hour I can make for doing nothing.

3/7/2009 8:22:21 AM

I just went to the site and it said that they are not accepting new people right now for the job

3/8/2009 9:03:36 AM

did you read any posts other than the very first one?


guide registration is closed...probably for the next 2-3 months

3/8/2009 9:27:16 AM

I was back to back with sports all day yesterday, and I assume it will be the same today.

3/8/2009 11:00:35 AM

i cant find the answer, but do you have to make a certain amount before the pay me button pops up?

3/8/2009 5:14:30 PM

I finally got my rating. I have a 92% so I'm happy with that. I got 3 100's and 1 70 and the 70 was actually the best answer to me at least out of the 4 but they said it was worded weird.

How much is everyone up to?

3/9/2009 1:21:46 PM

^ check your PM. I'm going to send you some pointers to make sure that you get back to back questions

3/9/2009 1:24:40 PM

I just got accepted too

3/9/2009 1:56:23 PM

so is registration open again?

3/9/2009 2:28:16 PM

^ no, it's still closed. They registered before they closed it, but just now found out that they got accepted.

3/9/2009 2:44:38 PM

I need to get into some easier categories like you were saying to do lol..these questions that take over a minute to find an answer and try to fit it into that small number of characters is a bitch

3/9/2009 2:56:12 PM

^ yeah, there is definitely a bit of a learning curve, but you will get the hang of it. The best way to figure it out is to just keep doing it.

3/9/2009 3:36:12 PM

"Why is Haley Hill so disgusting?"

lol..

and it keeps telling me i'm taking too long to accept a question even when I hit accept as soon as they come in..gah

3/9/2009 3:40:01 PM

^ the personal questions are the best because you can answer them any way you want and just put a link the the definition for "disgusting" or something like that.

and the system is pretty quirky sometimes, just keep at it.

3/9/2009 3:42:05 PM

been slow this afternoon, but im also re-doing all my categories so that could be why.

3/9/2009 4:30:07 PM

Nah, it's usually slow this time of day. It will pick back up when the kids start getting off of school.

3/9/2009 4:33:08 PM

I finally registered this afternoon but didn't pass the final test

3/9/2009 6:52:27 PM

^how did you fail that test....it was pretty easy!

set em up!!!
