    I thought SNI stopped that crap? I can't believe they allow a 3rd party software program intrude their own proprietary system.

    I'd say people are still using it...there is NO way a human being can physically book a load as quick as the two yesterday and one this morning disappeared...no exaggerating about 3-5 seconds there wasn't a trace of it left

    Wow, well if so many guys use it, I wonder how it knows which IC to give the load(s) to?

    Was wondering the same thing...only thing I can think is priority by who adds it to their freightpicker board first, but I don't know much about the system.

    Who ever gets the signal to the load board first is how its supposed to be. But there have been times where a so called "system issue" puts the load on someone else even though their assign request didn't register until several seconds later.

    You will learn which loads a lot of ICs fight over. Tip: Find other ways to make money.

    Seriously its just not worth the stress.

    I have a friend that swore the only viable market to be profitable is the upper midwest. Told him I could prove him wrong. So over 3 weeks I ran the SE, TX, and even did a Denver run. Went home every week and made good money.

    There are countless ways of doing this. You live in PA. Thats a great market once you learn it.

    The biggest problem I've had the last few days are good paying loads that have too much time on them. It's great making $2+/mi on a 200 mile load, but not when you have to sit on it for a day until delivery. I Guess it just takes time to learn
