It's a pretty fun site! Can easily burn an hour on there, just don't expect to find any serious/factual content. As long as you let go of that, have fun looking up urban definitions as well as writing up your own. P.S. Don't forget to look up your own name... its a must!

The site kind of sucks. There's a lot of tweens on there just reviewing for ego plus it's pretty much just a rip off of the much better sites www.writers-network.com and writecafe.org

They copied everything from "fans" to the "writing portfolio" to the "promoted writing". I think it's pretty sad that a writing site lacks the originality to come up with a unique concept. Just saying!

WORST COMPANY EVER! And the sad part is, you won't even see it coming. After nearly a decade with them and ZERO complaints or disputes in my account from customers, they claimed that I was a "security risk" and closed my account without any notice or explanation. On top of it, they froze my money for 6 MONTHS! When I asked what I had done, they said it was "proprietary information" and refused to even give me a reason. Imagine THAT! No bank on this side of the globe would ever have the audacity (or legal right) to freeze funds (AKA hold and use a customer's money to collect interest for their own profitable gain) for that long and without a valid reason! The very idea is prosperous and yet they do it day after day. They masquerade as a sort of bank and "merchant" but they are NOT a bank or merchant and do not have to adhere to the rules and regulations that banks and merchants do... rules and regulations that were set up to protect US the consumers. Think about THAT.

And the very best part is, when they finally do shut you down on that day you won't see coming, your entire financial future (and often times, the future of your online business) will be placed in the hands of some pimpled face, heartless support jerk who is straight out of high school and reading off some scripted paper. That's the courtesy Paypal gives you after a decade of your business.

So yeah, use them if you're desperate and stupid, and probably for a while, everything will be fine but just like that when you least expect it (and probably have the most amount of money in your account) they will shut you down without a warning or even the courtesy of giving you a damn reason. Do yourself a favor and FIND AN ALTERNATIVE!

I have been on this site since 2005 and love it just as much as I did the first day I joined. Great community of writers, helpful writing tools and a really friend support team. Many writing sites have come and gone but this one has stood the test of time and remained true to its roots. Would highly recommend!

I've made COUNTLESS orders from Amazon and have yet to be disappointed. Great selection, great prices, fast shipping and an overall pleasant shopping experience. Would highly recommend.

Urbanog.com sucks, garbage company. Took a week to process my order (after I had to call LONG DISTANCE a bunch of times for random order problems) and when they FINALLY did ready it for shipping, I got ANOTHER email telling me that there was now a bunch of "manufacture defects" on TWO pairs of shoes, and that I had to call them to approve the junked up shoes before they could ship them. Great. But that wasn't all, there was also a problem with the third pair which was that it was the last remaining one in that size and therefore they can't ship it (WTF? Why is it listed on your site in that case?) and would I like a refund or another item. Like, seriously?

Keep in mind they sent this email at 5pm on Friday so I'm pretty sure I will have to wait until Monday for the next "update" on my order. So that'll make 10-ish days just for it to leave their building. Seriouslyyyyyy?

Judge for yourself but all I'm saying is, I am NEVER ordering from there again.
