  1. There's a difference between using a script that fills in overtly redundant info (for example a script that fills a gender bubble on a batch that keeps asking it over and over again) and exploiting a low approval time and just mashing that accept/submit button as hard as possible. Everyone here uses a script or two of some sort, usually to lessen workload for speed, but no one here bots surveys and the like. Sadly there ARE bots out there that can automate entire surveys, AC's and all now.

    it's going to become really problematic in the future I bet.

    Not going to ban you for this. As long as it's not aimed directly at a named requester. Requesters do read forums and it doesn't look good for us to bad mouth requesters.

    Unfortunately there are unethical requesters but I'm pretty sure it's rare. What may look like they are stealing free data usually turns out to be some kind of errors on their part and most do try to fix it and make up for it. We are usually quick to jump & react that they are bad and post TO. Until they realize their mistakes and fix it and most of the workers do not go back and edit their TO. You know how many times we been angry with pitchforks taken out only to find out they were nice about it and apologetic.
     

  3. Unless it's crowdflower which has always been kind of shit. They even lost a lawsuit for BEING shit. Thankfully they are no longer on the platform and got bought up by some other company that now posts their paying hits on gifthulk and other "make money incredibly slowly" websites.

    Got this done in under 7. So glad! I think the one I did before was much, much longer.

  8. Glad to see everyone's making money, even if it's currently slower than glacial advance right now.

    Glad you got it. I don't remember how long the first one was last year. It did feel pretty short. I wish we knew how well we did. My favorite ones are the blocks. Will the blocks fall or not?

  11. Didn't mean to scare anyone but myself.

    I was giving opinions and estimations on subjects I know nothing about, and there was no time to research them in any depth whatsoever. Hell, I could have spent the entire two hours researching just one of those topics and still felt like I was pulling those numbers out of my butt.
