Re-Visiting ChaCha and Being a Prankster
Every once in a while I go back to ChaCha (I only link to myself using the term ChaCha because they suck, and they actually have some sort of thing in their TOS there that says you are not allowed to link to their site using any other words other than “ChaCha”, “ChaCha Guide”, etc. Completely hilarious. So if I link to that term in any post you can be assured it will be to another post on this site…lol) to check out my account and see how much referral commissions I’ve made. It may have been $20 a month for a while, but it looks like even my biggest referral has even called it quits. Basically this one person made me all of my commissions so now I don’t have any free money coming in from Chacha. Thanks for about $360 of money since my last search though ChaCha. Glad to see you guys actually used your 30 days of inactivity policy to delete inactive guides from the system.
Well…today I decided to go a head and do a search, which I rarely do since it is just being a jackass when i do so. The service sucks so there is no other reason for me to use it than to prank guides, or just shoot the breeze with the ones that know ChaCha is a joke. Now I find out that they have done a bit more to slow down the earning power of guides, and in turn deter me from bothering to do a few prank searches for Mudkips today. You can’t search with a guide anymore unless you register with the damn site! You have to put in your First Name, LAST NAME (bolded because…get real), E-mail address. OK…not that much work, but come on. Could we make this shit any harder for people? You can’t search on freakin’ Google, but you have an e-mail account? Get the hell outta here. Dar, I say. Dar.

Yes,they have actually taken on a sign up now to search with a guide.I read an article by Scott Jones himself saying that the long term plan was to make searching with a guide a less needed source for chacha .So with that, I don’t know why the guides hang on there.Hope is a hard thing to kill I guess.
Anyway I also say searching is something we prefer to do ourselves IF we can so unless you are a senior and don’t know how or a kid (they fixed it where schools can’t use it) so that leaves out schools kids ,they can use it at home thats their only audience.I myself think it is headed for the scrap heap just taking longer than I thought to get there.And yes,I am bitter .I was deactivated for NO good reason what so ever.But doesn’t matter now since there isn’t any money to be made there now.I have moved on to something better.
Coward. What about there dashboard vs. earnings scam!
