Has anyone else noticed the past couple of days that we can't seem to post top questions on Pickjack? I want to post one, and I have a good one to post, but for some reason when I enter the question, all the answers, select the right one, select the category and enter the URL, it for some reason kicks me right back to that page when I hit submit. There is nothing wrong with my question and I have a few other friends who have encountered this same problem. It's been going on the past 3 days or so. How are we supposed to post if it won't let us? I personally prefer to post top questions whenever I can. Has anyone else reported this bug to them? I have reported it and I told a few of my friends to do so as well so that it is dealt with in a timely manner. If you are a member and you haven't reported it, I urge you to do so so that we can all get back to our normal PickJack activities.

What are you talking about? The only mail they send you is balance notifications, and only if you tell them to. Also, they do pay. If you checked your payPal later that day you'd see. It takes a while before you get the paypal notification but everyone is paid. I got $0.87 only a couple days after joining.

zhuuraan,
It might be the case for you, but there are several people (incl. myself) who've received confirmation of payment from Pickjack, but have not been paid. PJ are also fond of changing their payment dates. Mine went from Jan 29th to Feb 5th to Feb 11th and I was at way more than the minimum payout on each occasion.
In any case, I've moved on from them as I stopped having fun there some time ago. However, from an operational aspect, they have a lot to brush up on.
take care...

Yes I got the same problem. I tried more then 10 times in different ways, but still cannot post the top question. Anyway, I think they already realize the problem and will fix the problem soon. I received payment from them a few weeks ago, so at least, they are still paying.. :)

I'm getting the same problem. I guess there's a huge traffic in pickjack and they're encountering lots of bugs often. Well, what I'm doing is I'm just posting related questions until the bug is fixed. I'll be patient since they are a legitimate and paying site anyway..

Yeah, they are definitely legit, and I am not giving up on them. They really need to upgrade their servers and all though since they are super slow and gaining so much popularity that it's jamming up the server and hogging all the bandwidth. They'll be as popular as myLot soon enough!
