Show HN: My 48 hour project for offering and searching one-time jobs

Sorry about the incredibly immature response you got to this. I suppose this is how some people really are when they can be completely anonymous. But it also highlights a problem that you should solve. Making someone submit an email and verify with it when posting (a la craigslist) would probably alleviate some of this and give you something to ban.

Also, I'm not sure how this persuades people away from craigslist, Task Rabbit, etc.

OP is probably just a Gawker "journalist" and reporting you all for these comments to Anderson Cooper.

What the fuck is this bullshit of "Show HN" and then not hanging around in the comments to answer questions and accept feedback. This project has tons of garbage submitted to it and no one from the project is moderating it or responding to the feedback here.

"Show HN" should be reserved for founders/creators and if you're not going to take time to be here for conversation, HN should not give time to your project.

You're not even taking the time to moderate the actual website.

I flagged this crap and will flag other Show HN posts that are essentially spam.

8 hours after you post and this is your first response. Not only that but the site isnt being moderated and you have tons of garbage posted. You're not respecting the HN community by dumping your Show HN post and then disappearing.

You're getting the time and attention from hundreds, if not thousands, of people. Don't just dump your Show HN post and disappear.

Edit: my use of the word "crap" and crud reaction was in reference to how you dumped your project and left without following up. It's not related to the actual website which I didn't really spend time on since it was full of curses and other nonsense and you were MIA in the comments.

Edit 2: you're getting the brunt of my frustration but it's part of a larger problem that I'm noticing with Show HN. Others have posted their Show HN and then have gone MIA, you just happened to do it when I had time to express my frustration.

It's good to see that you're monitoring this thread and are still working on the site but please make this thread and the comments here a priority while it's still on the front page.

I un-flagged the post.

Edit 3: while you build out the system, you could manually delete posts such as "Nigger nigger fucking shitty cunty nigger chink cunt I LOVE MITT ROMNEY AND SPACE DICKS!!!!!"

You could also create example posts to show the types of job listings that would represent a typical listing.

Thanks a lot although it's mostly Bootstrap (I really wanted to keep the UI minimalistic so people can focus on content).
