That's an understatement.

I'm sure this would be very costly for Upwork so this option is probably the last they'll consider.

I am a programmer and since the system was created years ago, yes, it is likely complex. The problem is many programmers having had a hand in the code, each with their own ideas and ways of doing things. I would not be surprised if there's no documentation. It doesn't help that there's probably legacy (no to mention spaguetti) code written in ways that would not be done today. But, it works (at least this part and this part works) so let's not change it. It becomes a problem trying to integrate other functions into it. If the database structure was shaky to start with, as is possible, then it can all come crashing down. I've seen it happen, well nearly if I did not fix it before it did for a mission-critical app. Rebuilt the database properly and rewrote what was 20 pages of code into 1.5 pages.

If that is the case at UW, I'd look at every system to see if it's built solidly or not. I'd probably blow the whole thing up and start over using modern tools, start with design specifications written out. It may be the only way to make it work the way it was intended.

As of this evening, the update date is back to the correct 3/17. We'll see if that remains until the next update.

Dear upwork members, 

I hope you are having a good day and a good week.   I have an issue. My Job Success Score is not updating. It was updated on March 3 (last update) but it has been more than 2 weeks and it is not updating. I was wondering if it is normal or if I need to wait more time? 

Huge hugs
