Officially no. PM me. We leave in 4 months.

Wrong. You offer nonsense. Congos for posting nonsense.

It's the "everyone gets a participation trophy" mentality.

Should I have charged commercial rights for the eulogy I recorded for a child's funeral? You admit that you don't know anything about the sublect, and then offer a silly opinion anyway. Stick to things you do understand, that keeps you from appearing foolish.

You need to not be afraid to charge fair prices for what you offer. You will be taken advantage of otherwise.

But they have only a few, and many many more positive reviews, or they would lose their TRS, right?

If a "rated" ( I think you mean experienced) seller was exxagerating his skills, he would have a lot of bad reviews, so it would be obvious, right? With a new seller no way to tell.

That's when you raise prices instead of limiting orders. 💲

Good. So follow the advice from all the experienced sellers here, and ignore the hundreds of people who offer advice, despite having no sales, no clue, and no skills. Make your gigs great, and be good to your buyers. That's it.

Not with the pipleline of parrots coming from a concentrated area right now. They are all reading the same pamphlet, show up, steal from other users, then spam the forum about not getting sales. They all expect to have money appear now that they have finally shown up. The most frustrating part is that they dont even read the advice given in the forum, and just parrot "thank you" all day. I believe many can't even read what is being offered. This is a real problem right now.

Communication is important. Why hire someone who cannot communicate professionally, when you can hire someone who can do the job and is educated as well. This is not a charity designed to help illiterates prosper. It is a competitive business platform.

I think that may be true for some, absolutely. But you cannot speak for the entire crop of new sellers. Many of them may try, but are clearly exaggerating their skill set, cannot communicate properly and break TOS.

No one is owed anything. This attitide is not helpful.

Youor gig should be denied if you are being dishonest.

Line of the day!

Your entire reason for wanting to cancel was because you did an admittedly poor job. You wanted to cancel so that they could not leave you a bad review. Dishonest.

What are you finding about UA that bothers you?

A professional does not ask others to pray for them to be able to do their job. Develop your skills. It is not about prayer, magic, or anything like that. Just talent and hard work.

I have had a couple that were in fact wanting to retain the same voice for a series of videos in a campaign. Often an ad campaign uses the same talent for recognizability. Look at Flo hawking Progressive insurance for 15 years now. But I certainly get your point. 😀 Also a thing.

Yeah, we get it. But @theratypist's point is that most will be lying about being experts just to get sales.

Dude's throwing a party and you are talking about national mourning day? You sound fun.

Probably because it reminds me so much of my family.

Thank you, actually I owe @smashradio an apology for hijacking his thread.
