And this is what you get.

So you really think that this is a JOB for you?

Got to hand it to some of these guides they are

Truly DUMBASSES!

I have edited the name of a guide I used for a search.

Here comes the Koolaide idiots!

Wow and He works for the fun of it. I smell a prankster. HAHA. So Scott Jones doesn't even have a clue as to who works for him, you can just get a invite from anyone and sign up. It is funny and sad at the same time. There are plenty of women and men, of all ages that could use work, some are disabled, or they cannot find other work, maybe they live in a poor geographical area of the state or county and this is something for them.

maybe they just had a baby and would like to buy diapers or formula. BUT you have to have a invite, and all these pranksters or people that just do it for fun, are taking up slots.

I laughed as I did this search, for one at first he wouldn't talk, probably scared to get deactivated, no matter what he claims, then at 7 minutes he sends my first results. They were ok, but I could have found much more sufficient results in seconds by using GOOGLE, or for that matter Yahoo! Search engines. He finally let his hair down and spoke. But at around 9 minutes, he decided to end it quickly. Asking if I was seriously searching or playing, well that is rude to ask a infoseeker, I was doing both. But that is not good business sense now is it?

It is funny how after maybe 5-10 training sessions you become a professional guide with ChaCha. I should sign up my kids, I am sure they can do a much better job than some of these "professional" guides can. After all they can search for anything within seconds.

I rate ChaCha very low, in the dirt with worms, along with the "mastermind" behind this, Scott Jones.

They, meaning Head quarters, (sounds like you are in a "Get smart" show) are really a joke. It takes them 2-5 days when you e-mail them or call for them to get back with you most of the time, and when they call you they seem to forget WHY they did. They work out of Scotty's home, must need to, to save money on electrical bills. And then you have the ChaCha cheerleaders waving the pom poms in your face accross the interent.

I would strongly agree if you want to play a joke, and you have plenty of wasteful time on your hands to try it. But if you are seriously searching for something DO NOT USE IT! If some guides suspect that you are a prankster, they will repost you as abuse. HINT: click the backspace button and your back in business! I suggest Google or Yahoo search engines, they have a top rating with internet users, and they don't seem to steal money out of hard working hands.

Also to add to this nice blog, Just last week on the radio I heard a dj saying that Google is #7 in the nation for a good company, and that they recieve 10,000 applications for jobs a WEEK!

THAT alone should tell you who the top dogs are!

CHACHA sucks!

ChaCha and the mighty powers that be

So you want to be a ChaCha guide? Ready for changes daily, getting suspended or deactivated without cause? Go for it!. Want to work from home, sounds great doesn't it? I thought so!
But then I didn't realize I would be working for free!
Yes Scott Jones and his mighty chacha cheerleaders are out in full force, watching what guides post in forums and bolgs, and profiles. Seems like 1 negative remark and your canned, and the biggest piece of shit of the deal?
WHATEVER is in your ChaCha profile account? IS not yours anymore, recently a guide got deactivated and had over $400.00 in her account, she never transferred them to the bank (FIB), so when they deactivated her boom she worked all that time for free, never saw it. SUCKS doesn't it. I was deactivated without a e-mail, she recieved one and a phone call I believe. They didn't get shit outta me though.
Needleess to say she isn't the first nor will she be the last. Lurkers for the all mighty Scott Jones is out in full ChaCha police uniforms signing up for forums accross the net to arrest these guides.
What a lousy way to do business! I mean come on...Everyone talks negativly about thier job regardless if you work online or not. Get a grip!
Sounds to me like Scott Jones is scared shitless that he will be made out to be a fool, too late already happened! Just by broadcasting this search engine before all the kinks were out was a first!
Then to go and have pranksters copy and pasting the chat convo's was hilarious, but then the prankters can do all that, but when guides go and decide to vent, your OUT!

Scott Jones must be desperate for money to take other people's. I can understand someone going against the crazy TOS they have....but I doubt they did that thru out every search session, that is alot of searches!
Also the biggest thing is they are deactivating guides for that, but yet are screwing them out of money...and lately it hasnt been much.
Now it is 6 minutes for .50 cents. after the 6 minutes these guides work for free. If they transfer too much your fired..I would transfer! Hell with working for free!
I read where he estimates 100,000 guides by June. GOOD luck your canning all of them. Idiot I swear.

My theory?
He invented this crazy hilarious search engine, get some people in here, steal google and yahoo and numerous other's results from thier search engine, build ours up...then start the deactivation process...ChaCha moves on without guides. After all they just froze or about to freeze invites again...NOW Scotty where are you gonna find 100,000 people by June?

CHACHA SUCKS!
It is a good laugh as a infoseeker/prankster
I searched recently asking for music downloads
took 10 minutes and still wasnt waht I was looking for.
Stupidity knocks here, no results and the guide searched 4 minutes for free, unless she was busy doing her nails and lost track of time. She only made .50 cents
