Excerpts:

• Should you collaborate away from the site, you must upload all off-site communication to the RentACoder (now, vWorker) website if you want to use it as a dispute’s documentation. (page 133)
• In fact, until escrow is established, (1) personal email addresses are not exchanged in an effort to discourage off-site communication, and (2) RentACoder (now, vWorker) warns coders against working on a project until buyers meet their escrow obligation. (page 286)
• RentACoder simply cannot verify a conversation when communication is taken off-site onto something like private email or instant messaging. (page 323)
• Sooner or later, you’re going to communicate with a coder away from the RentACoder website. Some projects require it while other projects will benefit from the clarification off-site communication can provide. (page 373)
