I don't agree, so I reposted it. You don't have to post here if you don't like.

I'm glad this was reposted, and would love it to be kept up. This thread has brought me a lot of clients over the years, some of whom I'm now happy to consider friends.

I do sometimes crosspost to seeking work/who's hiring, and sometimes not, depending on needs and market. They're for different things.

What I found particularly useful was the SEEKING FREELANCER posts. They seem to have been falling off though.

Activity comes and goes in this space. Unless you completely delete the possibility, in which case it vanishes. That seems bad, hence the revival :]

For my part, I've found the SEEKING WORK posts extremely useful both for hiring and for people approaching me to do projects.

"Who wants to be hired" puts a totally different complexion on the situation.
