  • I never thought about it. This whole country is so corrupt from inside out, up and down that who really cares about a paid staff asking a question here. Anybody that takes this place seriously anyway should have their head examined.
  • Really? They get paid for this? I wonder how much I would have made so far.
  • as a newbie, I didnt know about this at all. interesting!
  • OH I had no idea! Of course, when I'm on during the day I'm getting paid too because I'm at work. I rarely do this at home except for now.
  • No comment.
  • goodness no... if the hired help could not participate they would get really bored.
  • There have always been a few but they were Questions early on from Joel and Rich. Also they gave us answers which were very useful. I do not like the Two new Robots , I am not sure how much they are liable to be paid. Although I have been assured that their questions were originally written and answered by experts. I would not have thought the quality of the questions were expert but then most of the questions proffered by users are fluff. AB seems much more interested in quantity than quality these days. It has certainly changed the idea of what Answerbag was about.
  • I wasn't aware of it; it doesn't bother me.
  • No. Did you know that their are people using data from this site to study public opinions, trends, and just about everything else? Does it bother you that intelligence agencies from many lands examine these questions and some may be building up a psychological profile on you personally? Some here are being monitored keystroke by keystroke by people they will never meet? I assure you this is true - these chat boards are well watched by various people - how closely they are watched depends upon who is here and what they are saying or have said in the past either here or elsewhere..... Frankly I could care less if they watch me till their eyes explode - but some folks have other opinions on the subject. My word to you all is this - don't say anything here that you think might be used against you someday - unless you are totally indifferent to that possibility like me. I am what I am, and I don't care who knows it.
  • No, I want their job, they are getting paid to be on AB.
  • I suspected as much. And I really don't care. Shills are easy to spot and easier to ignore.
  • Considering that AB is a huge experiment or something led by Rich, I guess not. But that's interesting. I didn't know that...It did occur to me many times though, actually, with how some of the users seem to be like, asking trivia questions and all.
  • Until I read that they are checking for advertising reasons I wasn't really bothered. Now I don't know if that is ingenious or just over the top. LOL...thanks YL great question +5
  • Do they get limited edition gold plated points? If not, I don't really think I care.
  • Wow- didn't know that, but think it's kind of neat for them to be that involved with us (general public people).
  • Intensely. +5
  • I wouldn't know, nobody will answer my questions anymore.
  • I haven't noticed them so it hasn't bothered me. Do you have any links to or examples of them?
  • Noit vdoesn't bother me but I feel that they should make themselves known to us. There are a couple of the high fliers that I suspect are on the take...
  • I am surprise to learn this as i am quite young to AB ,are you sure that some of the answers are from the paid employees .please respond.
