Deadlines are a big thing, most people hiring want you to rebuild facebook in two weeks, why? Because that's what some flip on freelance.com said he'd do it in for $150.
If that's what you're expecting good luck because your shit's all fucked up and you talk like a retard.

Well said. Half the problem is the client... If they don't know *EXACTLY* what they want and they aren't realistic, then it's already a problem.... Facebook probably spent a quarter million developing thier IM system - don't expect some indian to deliver the same quality for $150.
