I Got Rejected?? Booooooooooo...

Hello there LetranKnight...Are you good today?
I know what you are talking about. I don't like doing those tasks either. To me you put in a lot of effort for them to say you didn't make it. I really hate that. I have chosen to stay with responding and starting my own discussions. I seem to be doing okay with that. Good discussion and keep up the good work. Have a nice day..

Hi letranknight, haha I was thinking of posting a discussion about that 6 paragraph task. I never tried doing a task simply because the pay is too low and the 6 paragraph task always have either such boring topics or topics I have no idea about. But recently I receive an alert that says they have raised the pay for it. Reaching $4 per write up. And then I thought hey $4 is not that bad for one task, it would only take you a few hours. And if you like writing I guess that's fine.

But I still haven't tried it cause I had a lot of concerns. Like how do I know that they really had no use for the 6 paragraph I've written just in case they have rejected it. And I was bothered with the idea that there are thousands of mylotters who are probably interested of the job, how sure am I that by the time i finish mine, the job is still available...

Anyway, that's too bad that yours was rejected. I'm pretty sure that could be annoying having to spend some time writing that in the first place. As for me, I still don't know if I'll ever do a task.lol

We seem to get many alerts informing us of how many tasks are available and the outstanding pay involved. And it is-I suppose-if done correctly, you can earn tons more than merely forum discussing. I like to write, and believe I am fairly good at it grammatically and content wise. I have checked them out in the past to find out I won't take a stab at them and for many reasons.

First of all, I cannot write of things that I am unfamiliar with, and to date, I have not been intrigued by anything in the tasks section. Secondly, I have heard "horror" stories of the rejections-like yours- and how people get frustrated when spending time to ultimately have it be a waste of their time. No thanks-If I am going to waste my time online, I will spend all day playing usless online games-something that is nothing more than entertainemnt.

I don't like getting discouraged, so I will not waste my time on something the chances are very high I will not succeed in.

I have seen some of the tasks here at mylot and I cant help it but not be interested in them... I dont know why.. I just have no interest in doing them.

I come here for the discussions, but I think for those mylotters that may be interested and wondering what it is all about or if they are possible, I think it was good that you gave it a try and let people know here so that have an idea of what they are getting into!!

sorry you got rejected, but it was worth a try!!

happy mylotting.

Being able to spell and use punctuation corrrectly goes a long way in getting accepted for any writing job.

You are not alone in the sentiment. I tried out two tasks before which would pay a measly 10 cents each. Just wanted to see how it would go before I went any further. Good thing I only spent time doing 2 tasks because both were rejected.

After reading a lot of discussions with people saying they've got tasks approved but also got tasks rejected, I realized there must be a batting average somewhere that I don't know the computation of.

And I can't help but think what really happens when a task creator rejected submissions. What if he/she is just rejecting some to get them done for free? Who's to know if the rejected submissions were even used somewhere or not?

I'm not accusing anyone here but since we don't even know what happens to the submissions after they were rejected, is it so surprising for some people to wonder?

Just thinking/typing out loud ...

Anyway, I no longer try out any tasks because it's a waste of time to exert a lot of effort only to find out that it's all for nothing. I'd rather join discussions and learn from my fellow mylotters or share whatever inputs I could ...

Some of us are good at one thing and others are good at another. We must enjoy what we do in order to make it worthwhile too.

I do not like writing about things that I am not interested in so I have not tried the writing tasks either and I stick to the discussions.

You know you can have fun here so stick with us and just put that rejection down to experience

Hello letran king
dont worry its very obvious being your first task ever as you said so
then it has to be rejected as they always say practise makes a man perfect, so why not give it another try

I also saw that task and thought about trying it out, but English ain't my first language so I would probably got rejected just like you. But maybe you can send Sharonbucks a message and ask what you need to do to get it approved?

Oh I never waste my time on tasks.. not only because they don't interest me but I always get the feeling that if I did take time out to do one I will get rejected so I never bother. I'll stick to posting thank you very much
