Disappointed

[singletonb]

I made the mistake of not paying close enough attention to my post so even though I made more than 30 posts, some of them apparently did not hit the mark to qualify for paid to post.  Lesson learned!

  Well you are not alone. Just keep at it.

I guess you have to say so much in a post.  More than likely it has to make much sense to be approved.

I think that others have made the same mistakes as yourself.  You can not just say "wow" or "way too go" to have it counted.  I always write, at least, one complete sentence as a minimum but usually two or more. The sentence needs to contribute to the discussion or begin a discussion. It has to have substance.

I usually do more than 30 posts just in case some do not count.  I have not had any not count though...thank goodness.

I figure after a little while, us newbies will be the savvy old-timers, and we will do tasks with efficiency and smoothness....then there wont be so many hiccups, confusion so to speak.

I am glad for the forum. Have learned a lot about how to make things go easier on here.

Don't be discouraged, consider each reply as a conversation that you're having. You don't just want to say yes, no, wow, unless you're just listening. Reply with a sentence, say something that contributes to the conversation, it doesn't have to be long, it just needs to make sense.

I need to start posting in the forums a lot more.  I don't do it enough.  Will this count toward 30 posts?

I have only missed the $3 once since 2009, so it can be done.

Dear singletonb - According to Fusion Cash: "A contributory post is one that offers some insight, makes people laugh, carries a conversation, provides information or help, or something along those lines."

As a woman, I'm sure you have some valuable insights to impart to the rest of us. Make me proud!

I think it would be helpful if people would simply proof read their posts before clicking the "post" button. I guess most people are in a big hurry, but you could really turn a so so post into a valuable one if you just reread your text with the forum's guidelines in your head.

I have never been told mine haven't qualified. I think I have cashed out with the forum bonus for over a year now. I do know someone that has though. Not sure what her posts consisted of, but she is more careful now.

I'm not sure why, but keep making posts like this one that are good quality posts. Also, make sure you post in the right thread.

[julesday]

Wait what do you mean post in the right thread, does it really matter which thread you post on or not.

[abandonedone]

I guess it matters that you reply appropriately to a certain post in relation to the thread. It's not like chatting with a lot of people at once, then sending the wrong person a reply meant for another . That can be embarrassing . I know. I've done it myself.
