Hiya katy!

Hiya, finally getting back in to things lately, have had lots of injuries and illnesses in the last year that've kept me off my old form! I have currently just got over slicing my hand open quite badly so only now am I able to type again.

Let me speak from experience, I've had a load of trouble in the past, been told off for speed rating once, had a couple of reviews locked, had rows with members, I feel that the ultimate outcome is that it just isn't worth the time arguing with people. Any rule breaking I done was unintentional but I'm a stickler for the rules now! Not worth losing my nice income!

Wow Katy... you know you're addicted when you declare it to the tax man. Did you actually pay tax on it? Intense. Impressive earnings as well.

Dooyoo is a small portion of my earnings online. I work part-time in addition to Dooyoo, Ciao etc. As well as that I also do some writing for a content writer/SEO worker and that definitely pays me the bulk of my online earnings.

I do pay tax, not a huge deal as my total earnings are about 15k including my part-time job but I'm very happy with my lifestyle particularly as my husband does so well in his full-time job. My money is just pin money really but it all adds up!

The main reason that I looked in to paying tax on everything was when I had problems with a particular member on Dooyoo/Ciao who found my home address and other things. Figured it wasn't worth me getting in trouble when I was earning so much and it probably wouldn't have been overlooked.

I must say that the person did me a favour really as now I'm all the more motivated and I have lots of ways I earn money online to add to my little files and spreadsheets. Worked out well for me really!

I doubt I earn £190 a week (the person allowance threshold before tax), even so, it's good to be informed. SEO writing sounds great though - hope it pays well for you.

I didn't even notice the block button... I've had some 'odd' messages on DY but never anything abusive, thankfully. You learn something new everyday...

Alrighty, I have a technical question. I've read the site rules (naturally!) and I notice they put a lot of emphasis on not just clicking onto a review and rating it without giving it a proper read. This concerned me a little, as I read very quickly. So I timed myself, and on a review just over 1000 words, it took me 64 seconds to read. I get the feeling this wouldn't pass their checks, but I also feel like I'm being dishonest by lingering on the page for longer to pass a check =S Does anyone have a rough idea of what I should be doing to avoid getting into any bother?

I had the same problem. I read so fast I polished off the Ice and Fire books up to Dance with Dragons in five days and those things are huge. So with dooyoo I have to conciously slow down a lot.
