Is it normal for for Textbroker to ask for photo id to confirm your identity?

I got a 4! Ah, man, I'm so happy. I'm not supposed to be this happy about some dumb little number on a website, right? Thanks to whoever suggested textbroker. With DS dying, I needed somewhere new.

wlokos posted:I signed up for textbroker, submitted my sample writing, got ranked a four, and then accepted and submitted my first writing piece. All within two hours. All 5 of mine have, no problem. The problem comes in that, they stop you after 5 until Textbroker reviews your stuff. And their notice says it can take up to two weeks. It only happens once but aaah!

Doghouse posted:So I'm moving from St Louis to Baltimore in a month. I wonder if I can keep my Lionbridge job? I've been at it for 15 months and it's been nice, I really hope so. If not, can I apply to Butler Hill or Leapforce or anything similar? Is textbroker, constant content or transcription the only gigs left? DS as of a few days ago: E: VVVV The big drawback to this is if you ever intend to going "pro" and getting a publishing company to print your books and all that great poo poo, some of them take huge issues with not having primary rights to your "first book" or whatever stupid poo poo they're preaching now. I imagine that they'll be killing this a lot as self publishing gets more and more popular, but it's still a thing as of this post and it's a caution if you want to try to "make it big" some day. No offense to the self publishers. I think you guys are freaking awesome. But it's a snafu I don't want to have to deal with if I can possibly avoid it.

tiny mint car posted:Sounds like there are a few people in the thread who are getting a lot of work from Textbroker. Is it a viable way to clear a living wage 1-2 days a week? It all really seems to depend on what's available, which is ever-changing. If you find a couple good $5.60 articles that you can write within an hour, hey, that's $11.20 an hour. But you might go a couple hours in between that with nothing you want to/know how to write.
