Ya'll should just set up a block so the emails go straight to your trash. If one of the blocked emails ends up being something important I'm sure it will be on the site or someone will talk about it here.

Blech! I'd rather just get paid my whole $12, shut down my account, and not have to deal with it again. I'm very intolerant of life's little annoyances these days...

Wow, I got a response back to my email. I am not locked out so I can’t paste my email. I pretty much said it was slander and unprofessional of them to state that I “bailed” when I was in communication with them about it. I also said how unprofessional it was for them to email their writers multiple times per day soliciting money from them and that there are a lot of other writers who are getting annoyed by it.


"Okay, a pretty heavy claim there. Are you saying that I have slandered you?

Slander: a malicious, false, and defamatory statement or report. Um….yea, portraying me as bailing when I did not is false.

Do you see any mention of a name of an individual in my general message, or in my message to expedite the requests?

Yes, you did contact us, with the following message, but I think you're using it as an excuse to side-step the real issue here.

Hello,
I was recently hospitalized while I had titles active. I want to make sure that they still need to be completed and hasn't been reassigned to another writer.

Your message is asking us a question you already know the answer to "I want to make sure that they still need to be completed" No, I did not know the answer to that.

FYI. We were not the ones who applied for the work. We are also not the ones who were responsible for contacting your clients and informing them of any delay. Duh, that’s why I messaged support immediately.


Lastly, I'd like to kindly request that you do not take any further work. You couldn’t pay me enough to take work from this company. Especially when I’m going to be hounded to give it away every day to others.”

You're being very nice. I don't think clown is the word i would use to describe this.

I was gonna wait to get paid a measly $12 from them, but I may just chance it and send a (polite) email...

You're right; I am being too nice . I've never worked for NAA but I'm familiar with his antics through other writers.

Wow, sounds like an incredibly unprofessional company. I've never heard particularly good things about NAA, but that rude email seals the deal on this one.

I hated working for Need an Attitude Adjustment..... Scott....................emailed me I was unprofessional when I sent him a copy of my hospital paperwork after I was canned for not completing a project.

That was almost two years ago when I was delivering my daughter.
