Since they change the rule (http://www.answersland.com/faq.php), my earning in answersland can't be predicted and calculated anymore. They won't give us $0.01 for valid answer anymore. They give reward $0.1 for the best answer only. It mean that our destiny depend on other member who make the questions. We will get reward after the question is closed and the best answer is selected. When do they close the answer? After 3 days? 7 days? Who's know? There is no limit time when do we have to close the question and select the best answer. They only said that we may close our question and select best answer after 2 days. Just hope that the member who make the question close their question soon and select the best answer so we won't wait it too long. How do you think mylotter (especially member of answersland)?

I didn't know that they had changed the rules. I am a member of Answersland, but I have never been really active there, and I haven't been there for a while. When I joined we received one cent per answer and extra money for the best answer, but with the new rules it will be a lot harder to reach payout, and it will be impossible to predict the earnings. We don't know if we will get the best answer and we don't know when the member is going to select the best answer. I don't like that, and I don't intend to return to the site. Thanks for posting this discussion

They change the FAQ and it's very hard to earn there. I posted feedback in their forum to limited the period of questions so we don't need to wait too long for the best answer but they said that it's no need. They are planning to give reward for the active member. Since my earning now is $4.18, I don't want leave it. I will wait till I get my first payout. It's so close to me. I need my 9 of my answer will be chosen as the best answer to reach payout.

When I first heard about AnswerLand I did not think that it was better than myLot even though ther were people who thought it was the next best thing in life. A person can earn more for each valid answer here. I planned to join to get a better feling of how it is run but did not do so because I was and still am not even actively participating on myLot. There is aldo the question of how they earn the money to pay the members.
I am not surprised at its latest development.

When they rewarded 1 cent for every valid answer, I can reach more than 100 cent a day for worked in 3 hours only. Since they change the FAQ, my earning is never change. I think it's very slow to reach payout. My earning now is $4.18 and the payout is only $5 hence I still in answersland and hope my answer will be the best. Thank you for the response.

Hello, toya!
I'm not a member of answersland, but there's a similar thing in Chinese world called "Baidu know", Baidu know don't pay real money, they only give virtual score. "Baidu know" stipulate all the questions must be ended in 15 days, or the starter of the question will be punished. I think answerland should learn this, and the time limit should be shorter. Otherwise it'll lose a lot of users.
The possibility to get a best answer is small, I think I won't join answer for only $0.1 per best answer. It's foolish to cut the general rewards.

That was I mean. The question must be ended within 10 days or 15 days is good idea. I have wrote about this in answersland forum as feedback for them.
Well, if you won't interest to answersland, that's your choice. I have reach $4.18 when the FAQ was change. It's too close to payout. I hope I can reach the payout. Thank you for the response.
