I think it's time for a new registration plugin. That one hasn't been updated in two years and isn't compatible with current wordpress version. I'm on it. In the meantime, I am automatically adding you to the notifications. Thanks for coming and good luck in the job hunt! Regards, ~Killer Lisa, thanks so much for bringing this to my attention!

Thank you for looking into that Sherry. I'm going to see what I can figure out about posting only positions that work for free memberships. I never realized there were some that were paid members and some that weren't! That explains so much! Thank you for looking into that Sherry.

Most (if not all) of your Guru.com job posts are for "upgraded" members only. That's why I thought I had to have a paid membership to get these jobs, which I would for those. Mystery solved!

I understand the style issue. Writers who write for general, informative requests all day may have a hard time shaking themselves out of that rut. What can really help a writer, and I'm sure that you include this as a writer yourself, is specifics about the style you want. If you want the post to be funny, say so. Should the "funny" be sarcasm, puns, corny jokes or situational irony? There are also levels of formality. Asking the author to stick to third-person writing and avoid contractions can emphasize the formality of the article. I'm sure that you already give excellent instructions, but anyone else looking to use a freelancer, whether with Textbroker or on the open market, might enjoy the reminder.

I must have done a bad job answering when I posted a reply before. Guru is free for up to ten bids per month. So it is f<a href="http://www.guru.com/help/freelancer/freelancerhelp_Left.htm#CSHID=freefaq|StartTopic=content%2Ffaqs%2Ffreefaq.htm|SkinName=FreeSkin" rel="nofollow">ree to try</a>. You only pay for membership if you need to bid on more jobs than that. I have no affiliation with Guru because they have no affiliate program...I promote them because I have found most of my best clients either directly through jobs on the site or through inquiries generated by my Guru profile. It's been very effective for me in building my client base! Sorry, Sherry. I must have done a bad job answering when I posted a reply before. Guru is free for up to ten bids per month.
