I don't think you have to qualify as a forum owner. I think you just have to have the right forum formatting that goes with postloop to get accepted.

I have heard about this website and it seems to do a good business as well. However, sometimes, I think having a good English should not be the only criteria. What would I do with a user on an IBM Mainframe with a Literature Degree from Harvard! :shock:

PS. What a Harvard-Graduate doing on such a legit site is a different question though!

Well, in my experience, most of the people paying for posts want perfect grammar and spelling. I think it's a bit much. I mean, yeah, it should be easy to read and understand, should make sense, etc., but at the same time, most random people posting on forums aren't that concerned about being perfect. It makes the paid posts stand out, which is kind of defeating the purpose if you ask me.

yes, it is a legit site, almost the dame as forumwheel and forumcoin, where you post question, answer them but you have to go through the test with good english grammar

You can still fail even if you do have good english grammar. My grammar wasn't the problem but I got a low rating from one of the forum owners for not following instructions. When I look back it was my fault but I'm over it now.

I have always thought it a bit telling that forum owners want perfect grammar and spelling, because that isn't how natural posts on forums always look. There are typos, and acronyms. It is far from perfect.

Exactly. I understand that they don't want gibberish or text speak and stuff, but perfection isn't necessary. The average member isn't proofreading their posts or worrying about it. I can usually tell who is a paid poster, even if I don't readily recognize the name. The posts are too perfect.

I was once told by a forum owner that I couldn't use acronyms like 'lol' or 'lmao' which i thought was absolutely absurd. But at the same time, there should be balance, and it should not be gibberish, just as you said. I can usually tell a paid poster too.

I just failed the poster requirement test. While I'm aware that my grammar is pretty bad, the permanent ban is just too harsh to be honest. I thought I can use it to improve my English but wow I really didn't expect the requirement to be that strict. How unfortunate.

I just recently went back to this site. I quit it for a while because there weren't any forums that interested me. Postloop is a decent site though. Once you get in, earning isn't so hard.

Yes, I hate when that happens. I also don't like joining new forums, because I am afraid that that forum owner will ruin my overall rating, so I just stick to the forums that I have already received a rating for.

Yeah, well, I think there is a ratings fairy that can destroy your ratings anyway, lol. It sure seems that way, and it's hard to tell when it's all anonymous. Anyway, as long as I can cash out, I can't be fussed about the ratings any more. It was just too frustrating worrying about it.

@DreekLass, I have to say I'm so wary of getting a rubbish rating, to the point where I don't bother joining new forums anymore. When I first joined around this time last year, forum owners were very generous, so I don't know if Ryan has put the fear of God in them and they have scaled back on the good scores for fear of being reprimanded?

@thisnthat....I try not to care, but it still gets me down when I get a score of below 4 LOL! Can you believe that Ryan says that 3.5 is a good score?!

Exactly. Plus I don't want to 'spam' a forum if I'm not genuinely interested. Of course, my goal on there is to earn money, but I know people are paying for posts and I wouldn't want to rip them off.

I know right, ThisnThat? Even the good intention ratings will do your overall rating harm, which is annoying. So I just don't both anymore, and if I do join new forums, I have to negotiate with the forum owner first, and sometimes they are horrid irritable excuses for human beings, who I don't end up posting for anyway, because even though they tell me they will rate me well, I don't trust them to.

I do feel like ryan may have put the fear of god into forum owners.

When I read the rules for each forum, I kind of get a sense of the owner. If they sound like they are looking for a reason to rate low, I just don't join. I avoid the hard-nosed ones from the beginning. Also, if the list of rules is so long and picky that I'll never remember all of it *especially with a bunch of other ones to remember for* then I move on as well.

I have no interest in the ones who are determined to be hard to please.

Yes, I have heard of post loop. So far, heard its legitimate, so I tried joining. Its a bit confusing because you have to subscribe to the portal first before anything else. So it's giving me somtroubl to do so. So I have given it a break. I will go back and never give up.

I am exactly the same as you. If I get a bad feeling from forum owners, then I won't join. Or I'll join, make four posts that adhere to their rules, and then move on, just to get the extra points.

Postloop is a legit site and it pays well too. But you have to pass their preliminary approval for your first 10 posts before they can make you as member of their site. I had been working in this site for years already and so far I had not encountered any problem and they always pay me on time within 24 hours after requesting any withdrawal to my Paypal account. That is why it is also nice to be a member of this site.

I have been working there for years also. I have had a few warnings from the owner. But he is relatively good to members. They always pay me.
