With all the complaints I have researched over the past few days, I feel the need to elaborate on a few things. Any website of this kind will have people claiming qualifications, after all Brad Paisley wrote a song about it. In defense of TRUE experts on the site, a degree or formal training is no comparison to years of hands on experience and knowledge (i.e., the first person the DOD documented with an unmeasurable IQ dropped out of college). I myself have worked on all makes of automobiles for 35 yrs, never in a shop and as a hobby and have been the top Guru on the site for several days in a row until I visited a scam site about Fixya while logged into fixya and my account was no longer accessible. If you carefully read their terms and conditions, let me translate into my layman's terms for you: they have the ability to legally take advantage of anyone joining their site, PERIOD! They have stipulations that make almost anything violate their conditions (EVEN LOGGING IN FROM ANOTHER LOCATION/COMPUTER OR SHARING A PERSONAL STORY CONCERNING YOUR QUESTION/ANSWER). The experts will always be burned for money without exception, the client's perception of being scammed will vary by who answered their inquiry and most of all by the way they asked the question/described problem and their knowledge and ability to comunicate/comprend the answer. My best advice is to BOYCOTT FIXYA! Allow me to sum it all up in this: You are paying FIXYA to allow someone to attempt to help you or you to help another. THAT IS ALL THEY ARE!!! I CAN THINK OF A MUCH BETTER SPELLING...
