The tasks wiped me!

There are some tasks that warn that you must have excellent English skills. I can imagine that is why some people have had their tasks rejected. There have been some that I looked at and thought "I dont think I could actually do that" so I dont! Try one of the 'link' ones first. They are really simple. They look daunting at first, but they arent once you actually do it! I really shouldnt be encouraging everyone else to do tasks... there will be less for me! I agree myLot discussions can be a great mental break!

I havent tried any yet that arent entirely words. Thanks for the warning though. I will remember that in case I ever see any like that! Some of them are not worth it, so I skip those. But sometimes I can write the 4 paragraphs quickly because I know about the product/keywords. I have also found that the link ones dont take me very long at all. They dont earn me a lot, but it is more than if I were to spend that time posting on discussions!

For the first time, last Friday, I had a task abandoned :( I felt SO bad LOL I had a power failure after I had accepted 2 or 3 tasks and wasn't able to get the very last one submitted before the deadline expired. I've always been a workaholic, though, for anything I commit to do so, even for that one task, I felt irresponsible not submitting. Oh well - can't control blackouts, right? LOL!

Thank you so much for the consideration of BR :) That was very nice of you. And I'm so sorry about your accidental forfeits today... UGH... I'd be upset too! I did a couple of today's writing tasks but was also experiencing slow response and load time. I decided to write the pieces and just hold on to them until it seemed to pick up the pace a little. Got 'em in under the deadline thankfully... Better luck to you for tomorrow!!

I am the same way as you. Whenever I can, I grab the tasks! One of the ones I completed tonight took more effort to research than I expected. It will be worth it, though. And I learned something new. That is always fun. I wonder if we were working on the same task! I dont blame you for not wanting to forfeit the tasks. I have forfeited one. It was one of the first I accepted. It was from another member. After looking at it a little more I realized they wanted me to email them the info. I wasnt comfortable with that. So I forfeited it. But I did learn my lesson!

I have been here for less than a month myself. I love it though! It really is a great opportunity to have some fun, learn something, and get paid for it! I really do like learning. I am just amazed at how out of practice I am for researching something completely new! I used to be able to do it without thinking twice about it!
