Freelancer.com stole from me and ruined my life
Disclosure: I worked for Freelancer.com seven or eight years ago back in Australia and know the founder.This is a "new" post from an old and now deleted post [1] by the same author.In the initial post [1] they state "I've been a member in this platform for over 5 years".
In the new post they state "I have worked on this platform for over 7".
The initial now deleted post [1] was posted two years ago.Make of that what you will.Edit: I was hoping HN would actually read the deleted post too and/or assume I didn't have a nefarious motive. It's from the same author, isn't a repost, the story has an entirely different fact pattern and the deletion of the previous story (with no reference to it when it was previously posted on HN at [2]) is at least odd at best. I merely wanted to raise the possibility that an unsourced post is potentially not the best thing with which to sharpen knives.I literally just wanted to add this data point to the discussion, that's all =[[1]: https://web.archive.org/web/20171104123112/https://www.trust...[2]: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15624677
