Are you paying for work or for membership? There is a difference. So you need to look at it much deeper than 'not paying for work'. If there are true membership benefits and gaining client contact and work through that membership is just one of the benefits then it may well be worth joining. However, if that's all that's being offered, i.e. pay for a job, then it would be worth moving on. There are several virtual assistant networks out there that charge membership fees that are well worth the fee and much more - and you can gain clients through them as well.
Kathie -

I had looked at it much deeper.. I paid the membership fee and nothing ever came of it. When you "pay" to be a member at virtualassistants.com you are registering for a VA job. And at that point of payment you may then access the forum and other areas of the site.

I soon realized, I was paying a montly membership fee for something that other VA Forums offered for free.

I didnt mean to offend anyone, my reply was with intent to inform without directly bashing the company.
