Why would I come on here and make up a fake line count??? Really, that would just be stupid and a complete waste of my time! I never did this many lines before starting a KS. The last company I worked for did not pay for spaces and the platform was always having issues, and I would only get about 1300-1400 lines a shift, and even that would take me more than 8 hours to achieve. The account I am on now at KS has an excellent, fast platform with great dictators, and it is all one work type (ER). I know I will probably be accused of lying, but at least Keystrokes and I know what my production is.
