i am tired of factoidz moderator they moderate like a turtle. truly waste my time!!! factoidz in the beginning like many writer observation fall to their trap after some time some writer are demoted if you browse on some of their write already written more than 100 and now become a member and some have their profile deleted but not their articles!! very suspicious. you could read some forum some member had been scam and once you get demoted to a member you would not receive earning and for new writer if they fail to submit articles within 6 months they are automatically banned!!!such a ponzi writing site!!

oh oh that sounds really bad. i have actually earned a dollar after being demoted. so will i get paid or what? damn. i was expecting so much from this site actually. there are many writers who are having up to 100 + articles there. wonder how come they are still there and getting paid!?

I admit this site is very strict. I have 17 articles in there and I've had several articles that got rejected, too. I still try to write some more though. I hope my future articles won't rejected anymore because they pay promptly. I like their bonus scheme as well.

I have never been a member of factoidz and i dont know why did they do this. but i suggest you can contact the admin or the customer support there so they can help you out and solve your problem. i think thats the only solution. otherwise create a new id with different email and everything

i should contact the admin but i didn't do it still cause the status on my dashboard says that i am a "factoidz writer" before i had applied, it said only writer. i hope the problem gets solved.

see with your experience writer have no reason to ask or make complain if you attempt that is why they demoted you then you get so confused because they never really explain their reasons..and so on...blah..blah..blah...

Factoidz is very strict with the type of articles they would accept for publication. I myself have submitted my first article a few months back and was rejected. I didn't know why they rejected my article. They seemed to have sent me a form rejection email. Then just yesterday, I tried again. I submitted two articles for consideration. One was accepted and the other was sent back to be improved. I've made the necessary changes and submitted the rejected article back for approval. I didn't know they can suspend your publishing ability if your articles have been rejected. The site is very fussy. They want fact-based articles but I found some of the articles can be quite personal too.

I have a similar experience like you. I was a staff writer and two days ago they sent me an email saying they changed me from staff writer to factoidz writer. they listed some reasons but didn't say which reason it was. I feel very upset. I sent an email to them but never get replied. yesterday i submitted an article but didn't get their response. Now I'm looking for another paid website then I would leave.

ya it is quite fussy and it is frankly depressing that i can't publish my articles there. the staff writers write simple articles too which is not accepted when i write cause i am a factoidz writer and a moderator checks my work which doesn't happen to the "staff writer" . the site pays really well and i thought i could earn a decent income there until this mail came. i have sent a mail to them but have not got a reply yet.

I do know members who have been suspended in factoidz but for other reasons. One of them persisted and recovered their account. I think before you start over you should try that route, because creating a new account you will not be able to utilize the same ID/profile because it is archived as suspended. Sorry to hear about this and remember admins can make mistakes so it is worth the try. I do hope you can recover it because you already invested some work and efforts.

Reason was they thought she used an article spinner and after re-reviewing they reconsidered and reinstated her.

Unfortunately, I have no idea. Did you ask in their forums or send a support ticket to them? If factoidz sent a one line email notice to you terminating your account without stating the reason, then that is extremely unreasonable, and unprofessional as well. I believe there are valid reasons to them doing that, and urge you to send a support ticket to them. It will be faster than MyLot members trying to decide what is the problem.

hey, they dis state 3 reasons but they aren't specific which category i come in. 1)rules are violated. 2)poor grammar. 3)not enough factual content. what i don't understand is, if they had approved and published 8 of my articles then how can they say that they aren't under the above conditions? will try the suppoprt ticket. thanks.

Sorry to hear about this, as I have never really heard of this site, or tried publishing anything there as I got tired of rejections and never have time, so I have quit writing and submitting my articles and such except for here in myLot. I hope you have been able to get some of this resolved by now and are able to Happily write there again.
