Makin money online with ChaCha--1000% legit

[gene cisco]

I haven't read all of the details, so I'm going to reserve judgment until then. I'm sure you're all thinking the same thing though.

Naturally, the page isn't loading because of server lag!

By chance, does anyone know how to fulfill "top guide" guidelines?

This has nothing to do with top guide performance and more about cha cha being greedy.

Cause I know exactly what it takes to be top guide. The 2 times I got it is when I did cha cha more than one day out the week. They just want muthafuckas that fly through questions with DECENT, not perfect answers(since most questions are BS and queries bout insignificant people only god knows about). If all of a sudden I don't get it doing the same shit they scamming.

I won't build no more of my team until I find out. It was easy to put people on before, now they might just look at you like ------- Fuckouttahere.

I was building a team to get 10% off of people that really needed this. I show them how to fly, they make good money a week and I get my cut multiplied. It was good, cause if you get 10 people that really need it and they fly they can get at least 300 a week each, thats 300 for you for not doing shit.

Now I can't tell people even if they flying they get 10 cents, they aint gonna wanna do it.

Getting all these emails from them how they breaking records and growing and how customers are so satisfied, and they pull this shit?

There go my dreams of being a cha cha goldie, the greedy ass fat man just stomped on all my plans syndicate style.


Gene Cisco- "I was gonna have 10 of the best cha cha guides bringing me in 300-500 a week."

Cha Cha(fat man)- "Get off our ass with the panty anty guide games, we taking all the cake!!!!"

Not the best news:

ChaCha to drop pay rate Aug 14th
To $.10 if you do not obtain top guide status for the week.

http://knowledgebase.chacha.com/questions/301/


Not just for new guides, but for everyone.

That link didn't work but i saw the video and I think this may be some B/S. I just got my card, and was able to get cash out of an ATM and now this shit.

I'm gonna quit if i dont get top guide status cause $.10 per question aint worth it. It translates to about $2 - $4. per hour max..

I think it is clear everybody here thought of it as a hustle, not a retirement plan. This was an excellent hustle.

For 10 cents they are gonna get every guide saying for an answer............................use google or call 411(with the google homepage as the source).

They think people are gaming it now.

And i would not be mad....game recognize game and if you can answer stupid shit with stupid shit then get that stupid money.

I still don't see any click for bucks or host for cash paying like this so if someone really ain't feeling' what I'm saying and knows a better ehustle. Bring it. Cause until the Aug 14th I'm still clockin' $1.00 for every five questions...realtalk I knock out 5 in less than 5 minutes if it's poppin..... and after the 14th I'll still be clocking the same

I usually knock out 100 searches a day during a week, if that aint good enough for Top Guide status then yea fuck it...I'm push my pay me now button...and from now on,

use google or call 411(with the google homepage as the source).

will be my only answers. 10cents a question to answer shit like

"I just painted my nails blue, what color should i paint my toes?"

"should i leave my bf for thinking about cheating me?"

"If i do this thing tonight will i be caught by the cops?"

"if i push my butt against a guy during a party will that let him know I want him to bang me?"

 

[blackbastard]

TechCrunch put up something about the new Pay Per Performance standard. The ChaCha Forum is blowing up. I'm sure there's more, but I can't be arsed to find it right now. I'm waiting for my OK from the Simulated Query Test, then I'm ready to get that slavery money, sonnnnnnnnn...

Watching the city burn...

 

[Duende]

they are greedy.

with this new pay system, im bout to quit.

aug 14th, im out. fuck ten cents.

Cosign. I knew this wouldn't last for every and treated as a hustle to get some side money. I didn't expect it to basicly die in 3 weeks though..

A lot of people are gonna quit. It you're not a "Top guide" you'll have to work 10 hours at 30 questions per hour (actually doing reasearch) to get your 300 questions. I dont know about you, but I aint working 10 hours to get $30.00 cause i could be using my time for something else.

I dont know many people that would still go to work at their regular job if they were told they would only make half as much if they didn't meet some judgemental quality standards.

I'll be on it until 8/14 and if they start tripping with these ratings im gonna quit.

It was fun while it lasted.

 

[Duende]

Hell yeah, Mc2. real shit, I am basically going to just give shit answers, try to get as many queries as I can under this 20 cent shit until the 14th, and then say fuckem. Too many rules.

They change the pay system every 3 weeks.

They started at 83 cents a query. Then 50 cents. Then 20 cents. Then 15 cents. Now, 10 cents? No thanks. Fuckem. Gimme my money.

And for the next week, no matter what the IS asks, they response will be something like this:

Did you know A queen bee can lay 800-1500 eggs per day

time to research: 8 seconds. fuck chacha

 

[OTG08]

Those moms at the ChaCha forum are pissed, they're talking about getting lawsuits and shit going:

Just got off the phone with a business lawyer, no they did NOT cover there backside on this. Sent him a PDF of the agreement. There are SEVERAL places they are at the employee/contractor line. This particular one is where they try to define us as contractors "(c) you control the time, the date, the order, sequence, details, manner and means of performing all Services, subject to any and all applicable ChaCha policies, procedures and guidelines;" ChaCha's "guidelines" however CANNOT take control over time, date, order, sequence, details, manner and/or means or performing services, the moment they do we cease to be contractor's and become employees. It doesn't matter what the contract states on this issue, any portion of said contract that tries to state otherwise is legally invalid. The legal grounds for claiming workers are contractors rather than employees REQUIRES this freedom. By tying our PAY on FUTURE jobs rather than simply the availability of future jobs to the speed at which we perform CURRENT jobs, they effectively remove this freedom and violate the contract, at which point we become employees in the eyes of the law. That is the advice my business attorney gave me (I own a business, so I simply asked the Attorney who deals with my business matters about this). IT DOES NOT MATTER that the contract states "subject to any and all applicable ChaCha policies, procedures and guidelines" because we are dealing with the legal classification of a worker, which is governed by laws regardless of what contract an Individual signed. Laws created to prevent companies from doing exactly what ChaCha is attempting, claiming workers as subcontractors to the IRS and then controlling the work in a manner not in keeping with that status. You can find the IRS guidelines on subcontractor vs Employee on there website, It is educational to say the least. If your attorney stated otherwise he may need to re-read the contract. Mine already offered to take the case if this goes live should I wish to pursue it. I would simply walk away of course as I have no real desire to see ChaCha go under, which would happen should any class action be successful. In short ChaCha is violating guides status as Independent Contractors by attempting to link past job performance to future job pay. Each question is a separate singular job, and performance can legally, as a contractor, only affect pay on THAT JOB, except that ChaCha CAN terminate the contract for poor performance. They CANNOT base pay on Job #3 on performance on Job #1 because each one is separate from the other. It would be like you stating you were only going to pay 1/2 the contract price for a garage painting because the contractor didn't meet speed requirement X when he painted your house. If ChaCha wants to change entirely how much they pay per query across the board, thats one thing. Performance based pay is not valid for subcontracting when it involves penalties that take away the freedoms required to be legally classified as a contractor in the first place regardless of who signed what or what is claimed in the "contract". Period.

Actually all the dingbats over there are the ones gonna be gone. They the ones that spend time snitching out the prior guide instead of just answering the question and being done in under a minute.

Taking 5 minutes to answer a question and telling anybody that does it under a minute they full of shit and not quality. If you made the post you made yesterday bout knocking them out in a minute they would talk shit.

I thought they were folding until I seen 2,000 dingbats come out the word work in 500 page post saying how hard 300 searches were. I was on there for a few hours last night and get 200 alone easy, after midnight.

It will be better with just hustlers, and the scammers and dingbats gone.

I might stand corrected on the great dingbat purge on cha cha, also I bet recent team earnings were kicking their ass.

 

[Duende]

ChaCha is in trouble, man.

They changing the payment every few days.

They ain't stable.

Writing is on the wall.

Get ya money NOW.

 

[Cheez123]

gotta do it late night. traffic is too high on the guide's end around 5pm. prime time hours make the server lag real bad.

 

[Kaine3000]

They just started a 24 hr BONUS too....It was my first day

Whats the 24 hr bonus???..didnt see that

 

[blackbastard]

My thing is, why the fuck are them guides going on like it should be a full-time hustle? Crying about how they can't feed their kids, pay tuition? Let it had been black people complaining about the pay cut and they'd say, "Snap out of it, you fucking felon!" If that is your sole source of income, you're in a fucking situation. Already, it'd been established that the pay-per-search had dropped approximately 63% from the initial .83. So, why are they surprised when shit drops further? Should have never got comfortable like that.

 

[dasmybikepunk]

Whats the 24 hr bonus???..didnt see that

Don't quote me but until 7pm tomorrow the top 50% of guides with 100% accuracy on queries get a cash bonus.

Not exactly sure but that's what i heard....

 

[Skinnie Talls]

Whats the 24 hr bonus???..didnt see that

Whoever gets the most valid searches in the next 24 hours(7pm-7pm)
gets a bonus $20 dollars. I'm good now....

 

[Kaine3000]

Don't quote me but until 7pm tomorrow the top 50% of guides with 100% accuracy on queries get a cash bonus.

Not exactly sure but that's what wifey was saying b4 she hit the hay....

Whoever gets the most valid searches in the next 24 hours(7pm-7pm)
gets a bonus $20 dollars. I'm good now....

Oh aiight...thanx for the info, it would help if they actually told you your own accuracy rating tho...for those logged in right now are yall still able to answer questions??? It says the system is temporarily unavailable and they need to restart it.

 

[Skinnie Talls]

I haven't had a "query" in a whole hour.......I think everybody's chasing the same dollar.(That $20 Bonus)

 

[Quilly]

so its pretty much not worth the hassle to try and jump on board now huh?

 

[dasmybikepunk]

If you can knock down 350 in a 7 day period....that's 50 a day not hard at all or do 120 a day 3 days out of the week any way that works for you but yeah it's still worth it when you can sit at home and make gas money.


350 per week keeps you at .20 per question and pays 70 bucks a week I easliy knock down a 1000 per week so it's what you put into it bro.

The real thing is it's free they don't want your money to make their money just a lil of your spare time to answer dumb ass questions. In less than 3 sentences.

Just my opinion but I see a lot of people crying and bitching about the changes and the less pay but I don't see nobody dropping an easier legit e-hustle...and if you can't knock down at least 350 per week then maybe that's why chacha changed the rules.

bet! thanks for the info
bet.

 

[Duende]

aint that simple.

chacha can arbitrarily cut your pay rate in half, which they will do to around 90% of people who dont get "top guide" status...which right now about 5% of guides get....and the standard for it now are low...95% accuracy and 250 queries a week...
now they are raising it
which is supposedly 97% accuracy and 350 queries
on top of that you have to knock down 350 queries EVERY week, or else you gettin ya pay knocked down to half.
the problem with that is that you never know how accurate you are being. there are no real guidelines, and the people who judge accuracy are morons.

couple that with the fact that the pay had changed like 3 times in the last month...

and you have a waste of a time. it was cool while it lasted though. i made 500 cash in hand before this shit bottoms out so im happy.

QC(the boogeyman) give a fuck bout you giving a non WOW question as long its right and is under a minute. If they find out YOU give right answers that fast, fuck a WOW.

I really can't even believe this shit. I laid off this thread and the attempt to get into ChaCha for about a week (wasn't accepted the first time). I was already a little sour because I missed the 20 cent cutoff (July 15) but oh well.

I applied again, got the invite and just about an hour ago I passed the initial assessment tests.

Now I'm like ...

So I downloaded the ChaCha Guide Handbook, and opened the pdf.... but something told me to log in and check this thread again.

...And what's the first thing I see on page 7? They're gonna drop the shit to ten cents.












I ain't even finished reading the damn guide yet!! So you mean that I have a week to put in some type of Michael Jordan-azz stellar performance or I'm gonna get 10 cents a query?



MyBike, I'm gonna follow through with this and see how it goes. You seem to be one of the few posters that's somewhat remaining positive about these changes. I dunno, but I'll give it valiant effort, for now...

 

[Duende]

yesterday i logged 12 hours straight. i sat here and answered as many questions as i could. logged out and in when it was slow. stay with it just to see what i could do. i made exactly 48.88 (counting like 68 cents from a team member)

after the pay cut, that will be 24.44. for 12 hours work.

thats 2 bucks an hour. and ALL my queries are responded to in under a minute, cause i give bullshit answers no matter what. fuck a 4 min search.

2 bucks an hour.

then u supposed to work at that reduced pay rate for a WEEK and HOPE you get chozen, by as gene says, the boogeymen, using arbitrary criteria (nonexistent), for "pay hikes" (back to our "regular" rate)

Keep in mind that 5% of guide fit the criteria now. and 48 hours ago they upped the standards, so that 5% will drop to about 3%

u would do better just selling oranges on a freeway offramp like Pedro and 'nem.

i aint gonna lie tho. i read about 70 pages of the almost 700+ pages of white people complaints about the pay cut on the forum (by the way, 700 pages in 48 hours....amazing) and them people are stressing HARD. talkin about they lights gonna get cut off. they kids gonna have to starve. they aint gonna have no heat for the winter, etc, because the chacha god of Brad bostic is cuttin thier pay.

wouldnt be surprised if one of them slit thier wrist over this.

 

[Kaine3000]

I thought i was the only one that was
at 700 pages in 2 days,

I thought it was 300 searches and 95% accuracy is it 350 now??, and did it start already??
