Have you received an email from Helium mentioning that you are one of the top writers and they would love to hear your opinion on the site? If so, did you reply to that email? And what did you say?

I don't write that many articles too (been really lazy). I wrote 8 there and they are all in beauty section. Well, indeed, when I receive that email, I just suspect that they randomly generate some emails to some people in their database. I am not that good really. Here is my profile link: http://www.helium.com/user/show/222991 Oh and yes, I earned around USD8 so far. Very far from the minimal payment. *laughs* Let me know your link too, so I could read your work *smiles*.

Laurika, I tried your link, but Helium said "Page Unavailable" -- I wanted to see your articles, too.

Hi! Yes! I received one of those e-mails too. However, I have not responded to it yet either. I am thinking about how I want to respond to the questions they asked. CH

I think they sought your opinion as you are new to helium. They just wanted to know your suggestion and views. It was also their way of saying how important you are to Helium.

No I have not recevied any such E-Mail. But I suppose it is a site for 'writers' and I would like to see it, if I get a chance. Have you received any such mail?

Oh, too funny! I was just going to ask you the same thing, I just groaned and put it in the "unread" e-mail that I save for a rainy day and then usually delete, unread, lol. Have you noticed that the ratings are jumping all over the place lately? I had an article that was holding at 8 out of 119 and now all of a sudden it has gone down to 40 and another one was 8 and it is now 1...there doesn't seem to be any rhyme of reason to it. Before my ratings might inch up or down a little, but nothing like this.

drannhh Yes it's been weird and I was about to delete that email because I thought it would be some junk *laughs*. Anyway, you have received it too! And I'd better write them back and suggest something. At least I really want that we could add friends there so that we could keep track of those interesting people and articles! It's driving me crazy. Oh can you give me your profile link here too, then I could stumble upon is *smiles* and I could read it from there, sometimes I am not on my own computer, especially later when I am traveling. My ratings are alright, but they were like that before too! And I was like "how come"? I guess suddenly your articles appear to be rated in front of people and that's why? Laurika drannhh writes for AC and Triond as well. AC only takes international member though! I am not sure about Triond, have to check.

I've never received that e-mail and I've never heard of anyone receiving that e-mail either. It may be a scam that's out just to get your username and password, so watch out in that case. Just be careful as to where you log in.

Oh no, I just need to reply their email writing my thoughts, no username and password needed and they start the email with "Dear [my name]", so I am sure that's not scam. Thanks for reminding though.
