    My back and neck are bothering me today sitting that's why I ask . I would catch them on my laptop but do them on the tablet. Just wanted to make sure I didn't do something against their rules.

    I usually keep my desktop running Panda and do them on my phone or tablet. Esp if I'm out and about or just want to sit somewhere comfy for a bit.

    Using scripts in general is actually against their ToS. They only seem to enforce that rule when people are using scripts to automate completion of the HITs. They seem to ignore the work catching & other scripts to make the work easier to perform.

    Maybe it's slow enough that I can try to figure out how to tweak OW to accept blocklisting requesters by Requester ID instead of their name. I'm tired of seeing M Takarangi, D Strange and I can't block them because they have a comma in their name, and I don't want to turn off my "bonus" watcher.

    Gonna try this in OW:
    From this
    Code:
    f (hitObject.userSearch.length > 0 && sleepObj[hitObject.GID] === undefined && ignoreObj[hitObject.userSearch] === undefined && !blockObj[hitObject.Requester]) {
    to this:
    Code:
    if (hitObject.userSearch.length > 0 && sleepObj[hitObject.GID] === undefined && ignoreObj[hitObject.userSearch] === undefined && !blockObj[hitObject.Requester] && !blockObj[hitObject.RID]) {

    Put them in my blocklist. Which is why I wanted to find a way to stop M Takarangi, D Strange from showing up. They ALWAYS have "bonus" in their description, and I don't want to do their HITs because it's the sort of stuff you'd see on rotten.com.

    And I think that edit worked. I put their requester ID in my blocklist. Then I plugged in my edit in the script. Refreshed the page, and ran the multi-page "Search All" scan. They didn't pop up at all.
