    Okay, I guess this is probably a dumb question, but often when I open a survey it will say something to the effect of "if you have taken such and such survey in the past, please do no accept this hit."

    Is there any simple way to see whether or not I have taken the survey they are asking about, or do I need to click through all my previous activity to see whether or not I've already taken the survey?

    I hate this as well, like it's our job and we should be honored to have the chance to open the door for these totally self-absorbed, look at my unshapely ass in these skinny jeans, thinking their all that, when in fact they are none of that... ASSHOLES

    Heya & welcome to the forum.

    This script is generally the recommended way to keep track of HITs you have/have not done (at least last time I saw the discussion come up, maybe someone else can chime in though 'cause I'm not 100% positive lol)

    @ChrisTurk beat me to recommending Hit Database. You should update and back it up regularly to keep a record of hits you've done. If you're not sure if you've done a hit before you can search your database. Mturk only keeps the last 45 days of your activity by default so you should have some method of keeping a record of old activity. Hit Database mk II is the most popular as far as I know.

    Well, thanks everybody, and thanks for the recommendation on the script.

    I guess my problem is around 80% of my time I'll be turking on an iPad, which is kind of a bummer when you need to accept a hit, or really do anything :(

    I strongly suggest that you turk on a laptop or desktop if possible. You are going to have a hard time making real amount of money working off just a tablet.

    Chromebooks will lock you out of some stuff that requires windows however... but I think on the scripts side of stuff that it should be able to do almost everything outside of AHK for obvious reasons.

    Well, it's a question of work policy. I'm allowed to browse whatever I want at work, from a list of pre-approved devices.
    And at home I can use my desktop/laptop/we but that's really only from 12 am - 4 am pst so there don't seem to be a lot of hits available :/

    It was like 20% trying to throw some positivity out and 80% wanting to make that wise crack about the forum.

    Lol no one lives that self-validation stuff 24/7/365. I do shit all the time for the likes/loves. Don't get me wrong, I believe what I wrote 100% and give it the ol' college try.. but nah, humans aren't wired like that :emoji_joy:

    I guess the only way to be worth it if even possible is have 5 or so side by side doing them
