Agreed completely. It is a cool to see, but not much work at all.

No way this should count as 1k words. You wrote like two paragraphs. Practically all of your words came from just listing their names their TPE counts.
Took awhile to find each player, list em, order em etc. They legit took quite sometime each but thats fine. I just wont try writing no more. Whats the sifference between this and chris's "Top 100 people ranking"? Nothing except I actually had to look and find etc.

i know the biggest difference!
my numbers on the end of my article is not included in my word count! and i wrote to each member some words
i believe that is a huge difference!

Yeah just because he listed them and such doesn't mean it didn't take time. If you don't reward him that's pretty shady seeing as its a good article and everyone likes looking at these things.
- Gifter of Bikes - 02-27-2014
Looking them up takes time, sure, but this article in particular is just the previous ones listed again. Excel spreadsheet with the already researched players and this takes literally 5 mins.

I'm not saying it doesn't take time, but I think we should pay him for that effort, not for the word count. Calling this 1k words is a travesty to actual articles that are 1k words and serves as a massive loophole to hitting 1k words.

Guys, whether it was your intention or not, you can't run down a guy and immediately scream this deserve no money and there was hardly any work done. That just demotivates a member to do anything extra in this league. Imagine if this was a newer member and they see those comments?
Come on, everyone loves these types of articles, there's no need to pick it apart for what it isn't. We know the word count isn't there, just enjoy the article and the fact that somebody did it.

we said to stud's work a other thing! he get a hell of money! and that was too with so many numbers and so on
Same as your too 100 bs it doesn't take a whole lot to do them even my grandma can do that on 5 minutes
- Gifter of Bikes - 02-27-2014
I do appreciate it, but the 1300 words is a slap in my face considering how much time and effort I put into my career recap article. It would demotivate others who write actual articles if they see that they can do this and get paid more. That's my point, and I think Spangle's as well.

Quote:Originally posted by Leafs4ever@Feb 27 2014, 12:22 PMExactly! Not to mention those comments are the first coming from some people instead of commenting on the quality of the article and what information it shows. If you want a recruitment drive you have to stop with the asinine comments towards people who actually are active.
