Heya
I went to it months ago and it was closed down to new topics. I looked on here and there was a bit of a furore. I see now you're all back on and earning money, so how, when I go to the website, do I see it's still shut down???? Help!!
PS I did have a few posts under an old name about the hpc but someone has hijacked the account I registered with so I can't retrieve my login details!!!

No, the money some people are being paid now is for comments made months ago. Well, at the beginning of May anyway!

Ah okay. Cheers for that. Any idea when it will be back up and running? It looks like a decent site.

I received a pm with the WS spreadsheet to complete and send back - but a message sheet comes up that the WS spreadsheets appears to be 'switched off'.

Ho hum.

Hi Lou,

try it again in a while as it took me a couple of times, if that fails come back here and we'll have another drink:beer:

Sorry no, but keep reading this thread and you will be one of the first to hear when it is back up and running again.

I'm totally confused now! I went back to WS website just to double check I had all the info on the comments I wrote. I have backed up copies of 19 comments and have received £19. With receiving the email yesterday saying 1 was rejected I went went to check back on all the past comments to make sure I haven't missed anything ie written a comment but somehow forgot to save it (doubtful). Then I noticed the 'check your stats button' on the bottom left (first time I've seen it ) so clicked that and I just got an emails back to say I've written 14 and got 1 rejected.

Confuddled is what I am :undecided

Chips - make mine a large cup of tea and a sticky bun:

Lou3000, read the quote from WS below.

The first issue is that in many cases, your stats may differ from the actual approval/disapproval rates.

Don't worry too much with this fault. The stats are just for your information only and did not represent how many is actually approved in our system.

Don't worry, I think the stats were just a quick fix to give us a bit more information.

I know I've said it before, but I'll repeat myself.

WS is not bad, it's just a victim of it's own success. I don't think they were prepared for the response they got, but I'm sure they are working to get things right.

They must be as keen to get things working as we are, so we just have to sit tight and wait.

I know there are a lot of moans in this thread, including mine, but the fact that most people are sticking it out shows that they have faith in WS. We can't all be wrong, it will come good in the end.

They keep throwing us little crumbs from the table, this keeps us hanging in there. I liked the site and enjoyed the commenting, so just hope it gets sorted, but sooner rather than later. At least now they have made an effort with the payments.
