what´s the difference between the No answers? May 15, 2010

Does the simple No mean "No, I don´t want to"? "No, I have none to show?" Or "No, but would like to?" as the second No alternative? Unfortunately we will never know.

It would help if ProZ could adjust alternatives to be as mutually exclusive as practically possible.

Good poll btw, in spite of my criticism.

Regards

Right! May 15, 2010

Hello,
Thank you! You are right, the first "No" answer could have been more specific indeed.
Cheers!

Only from Proz users? May 15, 2010

I'm in the "No, but I would like to" camp. As far as I can gather, it is only possible to get such entries from registered Proz users. Most of my clients don't fall under that category, as far as I'm aware.

Unfortunately, only from ProZ users ! May 16, 2010

I have the same "problem" than Catherine Knight and I happen to remember that I already complained about that a couple of years ago.

Have a nice weekend

No, but I'd like to -- several clients have tried to access this feature w/o success... Jul 10, 2010

Two clients have tried valiantly to become ProZ users just in order to leave WWA feedback for me -- and the feedback never showed up on my profile. Anyone have any tips?

Getting WWA entries on your profile Jul 13, 2010

So far, I've only managed to have one WWA entry, and it is from a non-ProZ member. I still don't have clients from ProZ. I don't know how relevant that is for outsourcers. I've tried asking for entries, but the guidelines to leave entries are not too clear. I had to work together with my client until he was able to leave his entry. I am happy he did, but it was not easy.
