Just like all the MTSOs on here. Want the highest gold standard experience and skill possible to do the work but willing to pay the dirt standard for that skill.

There might be some who will pay fair and reasonable, but for the most part there are a lot of cheapskates on there. They will sit on a posting forever, waiting for the lowest possible bid, and not even bother to take the post down or notify anyone when it's filled.

I thought at first it was going to be a great way to get out of MT, with other work. Nope. Also you need to be careful that someone might refuse/forget/delay/whatever excuse to pay for your work. This site is like most of the rest of them, run by Artificial Ignorance and it's so difficult to get a person to help resolve any kind of problem, because they don't want to pay any money out, but want to rake the profits in from the site.

Brutally honest but true.
