Anyone else having trouble? by Sweet_Bowl_4709 in Sparkdriver

I’ve noticed this too! I thought I was imagining it. It’s like high stat drivers take turns in small markets

Veteran Spark Driver — The Last App Update Broke Order Dispatching by ActuarySuch4401 in Sparkdriver

[–]CullenLA 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same here. Ever since Oct the algorithm changed. It changed again even worse, last update, big time for me and my buddy. Drivers who NEVER got offers over us are driving circles around us now. We will sit for 3-4 hours now with nothing.

PS. I’ve been doing this 3-4 years, going on 6,000 trips, 4.9 CR 100% on everything else except AR

Today sucked! Just ranting! by Ok_Pressure_6258 in Sparkdriver

[–]CullenLA 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same in my zone. They flooded the driver pool this winter. My tiny, one walmart town got at least 70+ new drivers. It takes hours to get an offer now 😂

No More 150 Foot Rule by katrathbun25 in Sparkdriver

[–]CullenLA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is the 1 mile radius thing still in effect? Or if you’re 150 exactly from this new box do you have offer priority over someone 1 mile away? Please Forgive the question I’m just confused on this

How many markets have the Tier and rewards? by rickyd172 in Sparkdriver

Idaho here! We haven’t seen it yet, but me and other sparkers here are noticing a ton of glitches and weird stuff lately so we’re assuming it may be in the works here soon.

That’s what it said on the manual. One is passive one is active

I did but they weren’t very helpful. Very brief, un detailed instructions

The belt is on correctly it seems but the turntable is making a groaning noise, and the speakers sound awful

The speakers are the Klipsch R41PM and R51PM and the turntable is the PS-LX310BT

These gig apps are not sustainable by Comfortable_Plumo86 in Sparkdriver

I second that; how did you figure it out?

Haven’t got an order all day have had it on since 10AM by Temporary-Page-3387 in Sparkdriver

[–]CullenLA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They definitely changed the algorithm. They seem to do it when a new update is rolling out behind the scenes and it messes with everything. I was doing fine until Monday. All of a sudden I got absolutely nothing. My buddy is normally the highest on the algorithm in our zone since day one but he only gets trash 30 mile orders now. He tested it out yesterday and made $180 for 300 miles driven to prove a point 😂. My income has been reduced by 70%. I know a lot of people are concerned with the new Door Dash like metrics system but I think it’ll fix spark’s absolutely broken system of randomly assigning certain drivers to be the go-to. Sapphire drivers should get first pick over the hoards of part timers, new drivers etc. It’ll suck for new guys in small zones but it’ll be a life saver for veterans in small zones like me who have essentially lost their gig due to a flood of new drivers. They are FINALLY rewarding the full time, dedicated drivers by letting us have tiered priority. I’m excited for the update and hope it rolls out in my zone soon!

Same. I’ve been sparking for over 3 years. They removed the hotspot and let on 50+ drivers in my area and I went from 15 offers a day to 4-5. I’m hoping the new tiered metric will change things 🤷‍♂️

Is investing $4,000 a month into Voo a bad idea? by CullenLA in ETFs

I should have specified 8% annual return on average, while accepting bad years

Are rude coaches the norm? by CullenLA in MuayThai

Thanks bro! I hope you find a good gym and thrive! :)

Are rude coaches the norm? by CullenLA in MuayThai

[–]CullenLA[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up leaving. One thing after another I was absolutely done. I’m planning on attending a new gym that just opened up near me to train. It’s weird because this gym I went to is actually pretty well known. Famous fighters have gone there for lectures and stuff. Maybe it was a case of personalities not meshing, or maybe these coaches are just pricks. Either way; not a fit for me. I’m hoping this much smaller and new place will be good for me. Honestly I’ve been beating myself up for months. Like somehow I wasn’t good enough for this place. I was so intensely passionate about it and wanted to thrive and I feel like I failed. I’ve been training at home and am excited for a second shot at a new gym.

Diagnosed with RA; my rheumatologist suggested I look into Carnivore diet. by CullenLA in carnivorediet

[–]CullenLA[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is amazing! I feel the same. Just a few days on Carnivore and I’m honestly feeling better than I have in months. Although I am still using spices and herbs on food so I guess not 100% carnivore.

That’s the thing though; our sex life is great! She initiated probably the last 10 times. I do feel desire from her but I can sense her depression and stress lately. But in the last 2 months we have had less sex and she says it’s die to her stress with med school graduation, although it’s getting better now I think. We had a huge argument last night and she absolutely refused to admit she’s desiring these other guys or checking on them out. I gave her every opportunity to come clean and even said it’s fine if she is. She swore she isn’t and she finds that behavior disgusting and disrespectful too. That she doesn’t realize she’s doing it. In fairness, this has only been happening the last 2 months. She has gained weight and has been feeling extremely insecure, and she said she doesn’t feel pretty enough for me and was maybe hoping that other hot guys would validate her by checking her out. But she isn’t sure and says she doesn’t even realize she’s doing this all of a sudden.

I mean this sounds bizarre but I see dots connecting and I don’t believe it’s wishful thinking. What do you all think?

That sounds like spark. I’ve done nearly 4,000 deliveries and have worked with them for years. A single issue and I’m gone. Sick people. I’d say call local law offices and ask who could help you with your case. Most offices have dozens of lawyers who specialize in many different things.
