    well if they are doing big changes to the internal workings of the site they will need to keep it offline for a bit, there intentions do seemhonourable in my opinion, possibly just in a little too deep. Has anyone told them about this form, its top in the google search for writers share so i assume they know, but they might be interested in representing themselves?

    But I do think the site is honest, but overworked, and we will get paid. I think the crunch will come, not when we get paid, but when we see how much we are paid.

    I agree with this. We can do nothing but wait, there is no point in stressing. All we can do at this point is decide whether to keep on posting comments (if and when the site reappears) or not.

    Meanwhile, if some kind soul would like to add me to the stats, I wrote 9, and have receieved no acceptances, rejections or payments.

    I'm increasingly unimpressed, it started off so well and now seems to be deteriorating into a right shambles. One problem after another.

    The site's not working for me either, but I get something different - simply the word info on the page on its own.

    I had the actual comments page bookmarked, which was not found when I tried. But if I go to the main page I just get the word "info" to.

    They have obviously taken the site down for some reason.

    It does look like they have scrapped the site, the lack of source code tells me they have deleted the site, however, their facebook is still there, but also with no update; I think we can just only sit and wait in the hope that, they are currently uploading a brand new system that will air out all the problems in one go.

    So fingers crossed.

    PS - I still think they are legit, if a little sloppy ATM.

    It could be a server problem -- it could be any number of things -- however, they must surely have access to more than one computer and therefore more than one server enabling someone to get on line.

    A professional outfit would keep those in its employ informed, either by email or some other way like a forum or mailing list. This company is already a member of FaceBook so one would like to believe their professionalism will have them posting some kind of message for their freelancers very soon. Within twenty-four hours would be the most courteous, and would show us that they are in no way a 'fly-by-night' operation.

    Wouldn't it?
  • I really do hope they are legit but they are most definately a little bit sloppy at the moment, which is unfortunate for all of it's followers!

    I have left a post on their Facebook site asking if they could keep us all updated with a post on there. However, this will be a longshot as Writers Share have not posted a comment of their own on Facebook for a good few weeks .... I still thought it was worth a try though and could hopefully provide us all with some much wanted information.

    As there now seems to be no way of contacting Writers Share and there is no information currently available on what is happening should we all now start to contact Digivate? The last payment I received in Paypal was from Digivate, on behalf of Writers Share. Perhaps Digivate might be able to give us some answers.
