    I felt I posted here already, or was it a similar topic...anyway

    Two weeks so far, I am kinda of excited each day I check the forum and then I am like awww no new message ! But I do like the motivation behind it, the internet is a big open sewer in a sense so....its a good thing. ( except the waiting arggg! But I do understand , it takes time and its done with care!)

    I think it's better to be thorough, yanno? I'm biased though because for some reason I absolutely adore filling out forms, so it was quite fun for me :lol:

    Ah, got it. No worries, I wasn't complaining. Simply curious what the average was :slight_smile:

    about a month, this is staffed by volunteers, who have lives, patience is required and appreciated I am sure.

    We don't actually have lives :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: but sometimes we have staff absence and/or technical difficulties (both have struck recently!) which has lead to our current back-up of applications. We are always conscious that people are waiting and are thankful for your patience.

    of course! take as much time necessary man :lol:

    ---------- Post added 28th Feb 2017 at 10:56 PM ----------

    Ahh I'm not the only one! If you find a form filling job tell me asap man that would be amazing. I spend time literally finding fake medical forms n stuff to fill out (it's also a bonus when it comes to name and gender cuz I can validate myself a bit). It's an issue honestly :lol:

    I'm in exactly the same position, it's been about two weeks and I've been on most days checking my inbox - it's like every day is Christmas eve. I'm going to make some people jealous if I get it.

    Seems like I picked a bad time to do it, sorry for adding to the backlog everybody.

    Waiiiiiittttiiinnngggg since april 11th.
    The first time my application got rejected because I answered the question about contacting people from this forum according to the big angry yellow button above the site. And appereantly my answer was wrong because it said something else in the rules list.
    Pretty annoying.
    Anyway, sended in a new application right away with the answer according to the rule list andddd.. nothing to this date. Sigh.

    Mine took about 2 months. It came through a couple of days ago which I'm actually quite happy about :slight_smile:

    ---------- Post added 31st May 2017 at 10:21 PM ----------

    I don't think it should be too long until you get a response. I messaged regarding mine a few days ago. They said there was an influx of applications and would get back shortly.

    It can take us some time. All of the staff members are volunteers and we have lives outside of here that sometimes get in the way or our work here. That being said, we try to process applications as fast as we are able to.

    Not everything in the world is instant, and because of this we ask for your paitence.
