there claim to being able to make £10 an hour is very easily achieved, the things it depends on are:

1) Are you a quick typer?

2) Are you creative (they had about 6-7 topics up a day last time, the key thing is being able to write different things about the same thing. if you get me?)

I did 8 comments and it took me about 30mins or so i have had 4 accepted 1 rejected and 3 pending.

hope that helps

I would also cast doubt on their claim.

Maybe it is possible to write 10 comments per hour, but you didn't do it and neither did I, I stopped at 8 too.

There is a bit more to it than just being able to think of, and type, 10 comments per hour. You also have to take into account the number of people writing comments. In the past people were complaining that they were posting comments only to be told comments for that topic were now closed as they had enough.

That was when few people were doing comments and many were only doing a few to "test the water". What will it be like when there are lots more people writing lots more comments.

Then you have to factor in rejections. Many people had comments rejected because WS said they were copied. Even though the writers said the comments weren't copied.

When topics come back will WS pay for every one posted that meets the standard, or will they have to limit the number of accepted comments they accept by only accepting the best X number of comments?

I think the phrase should be you can easily write 10 comments in an hour, but you may not get paid for them all.

Time will tell, I actually hope I'm wrong and they do pay for all comments. But in the beginning they said they would pay for all comments but as soon as the site was mentioned in here it went down due to too many people posting comments.

If the site wasn't prepared for that many posters, I wonder if their bank balance was.

Isn't it possible, Geordie, that they are really talking about the 50+ writers who are getting £1.50 for each comment? That would mean only 7 comments per hour would need to be accepted (yes, I know you can do the maths, I'm not trying to patronise!) I think loads of us are in that category or well on the way. I'm up to 20 so far!

And thank you :Dfor suggesting I should give it another go. That few quid in the bank yesterday was a sweet incentive!! However, I do share your concern that when we all really get up to speed due to renewed confidence in the payouts loads of us would quadruple our efforts and put them under pressure again.

Fair comment, but that phrase was on the site from day one, before they had anyone posting comments. I think it says what may be possible in an ideal world, but we have no guarantee that all comments will be paid for. So for me it means "You can write 10 comments per hour" and not "You can be paid £10 per hour".
