a writer's paper chasing is never done

So I was thinking about redoing my application for demand studios. I was an interesting writing side job but back at the end of 2011 they reconfigured how they hire and generate content because of a google re-calibration smackdown. I still have access to my old stuff but i'm on the fence about going back under the new system.
This leads up to what I was doing today which was looking at my old articles and the comments from the editors. The editors of demand are . . . snarky and a little unprofessional. I think this comes from the fact you don't know who is editing you and they don't know you either. As an editor myself when I send back critiques/changes to writers I'm generally clear and polite and I don't leave a writer with parting shots on their work once a project was complete.
I thought with the holidays on the horizon some extra cash might due me good but I don't know if I want the demand studio headache, especially since the pay is they same but under the new system the hoops you jump through are a little greater.
