    One of our newer platforms we use at work doesn't have this and I have anxiety every time I need to go in there to update something.

    It will most likely take the full 40 minutes. I threw mine back after ten trials. Very tedious. Didn't seem worth the time to me.

    One of the very few things I can't do apparently (well, without some risk of breaking a lot more stuff). Its cross-referenced in so many places that doing so would be super sketchy according to the XF designers. That was the first thing I looked up when I bought the add-on to restore her account lol.
    I assume so and that I just clicked through it w/o thinking because it looks the same as all the other ones, but I honestly don't even remember. I'd certainly hope there was one lol

    PSA for TV - you have to plug your time in manually, even though it looks like it pulled it automatically, otherwise you'll submit a bunch of reviews with "
    $ / hour
    00:00:00 / completion time"

    and then bug @ChrisTurk about it and feel like a fool!

    I'm mostly pleasantly surprised by how difficult it is to make a critical mistake working w/ the DB stuff. When I first opened this site I was TERRIFIED to even open phpmyadmin thinking I might bring down the entire forum with a single misclick. I've honestly made more mistakes in the XF admin UI than any of the custom php/mysql commands I've used *knocks on wood*

    Then again, dealing with a janky mTurk forum versus financial data.. I can see why that's not really a fair comparison LOL.
