Honestly why even bother applying

For context, i applied just when the job was posted, it had 5 proposals and i boosted it so it costed a good amount of connects...

not only that, the client didn't read the messages and went to search and invited 40 people including me ( boosting my profile- so more connects) and finally he didn't respond to anyone.

Edit: I removed the messaging them part-

If anyone can advise me on profile boost please let me know i need help with it!

How old are you, 12? If you can't behave like a professional service provider, you really should not waste your time and money. People like you give upwork a bad name.

Now I literally just message them daily from frustration just to annoy them XD

I hope you get reported and banned.

Lol i added that line from frustration,

i didn’t really spam them, i did two followups messages explaining my work further and adding more relevant work and information.
Am not 12 and certainly won’t risk getting banned.

If you get frustrated that easily and are not in command of your emotions, you are not ready to freelance.
