I am a member of the site pickjack. All of you must know that they pay you for posting questions and answering others questions. I joined the site 10 days back and devoted lots of time their. The paying rate of the picjack is not at all good enough. But I thought that most of the legit site pays you tittle so I joined. After joining the site I earned pretty well. It took me some 7 days to cross the one dollar. They also decrease your balance if you are not active of 8 hours. This is one of the most disgusting thing about pickjack. All these are ok with me. Now the biggest problem come which is frustrating me. In the beginning their pay rate per question that I posted was quite good., around 1.5 cent. But After I cross the $1 it seems that they are unwilling to pay me any thing for my question. I am getting lots of vote for my questions, their ratting is good still I am not getting the money. And they are also reducing my earning if I am inactive for 8 hours. All to gather it is very frustrating. I am just defending my money in pickjack. I will leave the site as soon as I get my money from them.

arkasen,
No offense here.
I do not think Pickjack penalizes anyone for resting 8 hours. So, I think you will need to prove your allegations here.
Also, I have seen members reaching above U$1.00 and so, again I just find this allegation of yours to be skeptical and I really have my doubts.
I think you may want to check if you had answered ALL the questions correctly in the first place. Next, if all the questions posted by your goodself were quality questions and not Maths questions. You may also want to check out if you had infringed on any of the terms and conditions laid out by Pickjack, too.
Being a member there myself, I have noticed that there are a lot of questions that are repeatedly posted. And it is very noticeable from your country where the questions about cricket, tennis and movies are ever rampantly repeating. I just would not be surprised if the administrators there would move in and delete all these repeated low quality questions. So, with these actions taken I am sure the earnings from these quarters will seemingly be greatly affected.
So, my advice to you here will be to be slow to reach 100 degrees with your errant judgment. Speak to the administrators if you must and/or have need of any clarifications.
Last but not least if you are really unhappy then by all means quit. The least you could do would be to move on graciously and be a sport.
Cheers!

If you insist, then so be it.
Oh, before I conclude, the duplication I am referring to would be questions that are similar with other members that had posted before - not from your own sincerely! Just clarifying here.
Lastly, like I had previously mentioned, you will and never would - get any answers about your allegations here. My advice will still be that you make an effort to communicate with the administrators there.
Take care.

I personally always try to go with the rules of the site. I do not think that I have posted any duplicate question because they will always prompt when you are posting a duplicate question. So there is no chance for that. I will not change my allegations because each day I am posting at least 5 questions all of them can not be duplicate. Still I am not getting a single cent from my 5 questions. And if get one cent in a day then it is also decreasing.

I could not get you. Try to explain things in better manner. I am not saying that pickjack does not pay. It is a legit site and we all know that it pays. But the problem is that it seems that after reaching $1 the are unwilling to in crease your earning although you are working for them. This is why I am getting frustrated. I have not got the first payment from them so there is no proof to show you.

Yes the most disgusting thing about pickjack is that they decrease your earning when you sleep of 8 hours. This is not done. We must be active but that does not mean we can not take a day off. They think we are machine an always be awake. But we are human being and we need rest too.

I am a member of Pickjack. I have to say that Mylot is still the best and honest earning website I know so far. As to Pickjack, it pays. But sometimes I feel very frustrated to it. For example, sometimes their payment delays. And several days ago I even couldn't post any new questions because of their problem. It must be something wrong with their website. This problem was fixed in 2 days. Sometimes when it has something wrong, I will write to the admin but I have never received a reply from them. And until now I still feel quite confused their earning rules.
I love China

Hey I have answered lots of question of yours in pickjack. You are also one of the top ranker in pickjack like me. Isn't it?? I think I have wasted my 10 days in pickjack. It would be better if I have given that much of time in mylot. Mylot is paying me much more.

I was supposed to join thet site, good I just devote my time with mylot. At least we're sure of even little earnings. Everytime I planned of joining a site, there's always a topic I read at mylot where mylotters airing discontent. That made me stay with mylot and at least am reaching the payout without joining other sites. However we can't blame others as all of us wants to have additional earning, atleast thru your post others are being being informed and warned. Thanks for posting.

Yes I would also suggest you not to register with the site. I loose my 10 days for the site and earning is still very low. If I would have devoted 10 days in Mylot then I would have at least made $3 to 4. pickjack is total waste of time and energy. Better you keep distance from the site.

I have never tried Pickjack....and after hearing this, I dont think I ever will! Thank you for letting everyone know because I would get pretty pissed if I spent all that time on the computer and they didnt even pay and decreased after 8 hours on inactivity.

I am also a member of this site and got paid three times from this site.In online money making,we have follow some strategy in earnings.It is not a good idea to devote whole your free time on this site.They already set a target about the payment and they dont pay the user,if any user crosses that limit.I daily reply 20 or 40 questions and post one or new question.If they pay all users with out any limit,it is very difficult to maintain that site.

They do pay but if you're there for the money it's a waste of time. The most amount of money I've ever seen on anybody's account was like $8 and by payday it was much lower than that. I HATE where they take some of the earnings back. That is really stupid...

If this is the case then you would think they'd indicate that on their site. When I was on the site about a month ago it didn't seem to be that clear at all. I got my money even though I was inactive for some weeks, but of course the earnings fluctuated and that is why I stopped. I had only made it to the minimum and stopped to see if they'd pay, got frustrated because of their fluctuation in earnings. Legit or not, you shouldn't spend that much time on a site that fluctuates earnings, isn't all that clear, and is easy to do... hmm..
Well I'm not going back .

I am a former member of the Pickjack site. That site is nothing but frustration. I did two discussions about that site. No one had anything good to say about that site. If anything you got a paypal account out of it. I still get paid by that site to paypal each month because for some reason they have kept me above the minimum payout. I have not been on that site for at least two months. Also I started getting a lot of spam after I signed on. Since I stopped going to that site my spam dropped a lot.

Its ok that they are paying less probably one cent per question. But at least they should pay that much of amount. For last few days I am posting nearly five questions per day at different time of the day but my earning is not increasing. And even if it increase then it also decreasing one cent when I am sleeping. I am just defending my money there.

Yes..What you should do is when they set a payment date,start posting and answering 5-6 days before! then you would not waste time and you need not get worried about losing what you earned!
They pay and they are legit,so we do not have to worry about that..
Work in the way I stated..
It'll not waste your time too much!
Cheers!

I agree with you, members should check the payment date first, before posting and aswering questions so that efforts and time wouldnt be put into trash!

Hi Dear, I am with you for ths discussion. I am also facing the same issue as you do, but the only thing is that I have devoted much time, but that does not mean that I don't do anything over there, I have given a decent time to that site, and till date giving, but as they pay the money instantly at their payout date, I keep on doing something or the other in my spare time, to just get that few cents. But agree with you that it takes whole lot of devotion of time to earn that few cents, but sometimes I find it intresting that you get knowledge as well as you earn.

I am also doing that question answer because I find it interesting and it was enriching my general knowledge. But what is the advantage of it if after putting some hard work I don't see any update in my earning. I am there primarily for earning as we all are.
