    I'm a hummingbird. I've never purposely eaten anything sugar free in my life and the day I do is the day I'm clearly being fed against my will.

    As long as you don't consider drinking water 'eating' it.

    "eh, it can't be that bad" was my logic in buying it. It was 100% that bad. I ended up feeding the last container to the dog. At least he liked it.

    I meant like, "sugar free foods," where they replace normal sugar with fake sugars.

    Blech.

    NO. NEVERRRR!

    fair, I'm still a complete noob at the forums and yeah the requester was mediocre, but they should be criticized fairly as well.

    Saying "this survey sucked donkey balls" is usually enough to drive the message home.

    If you have TVJS installed you can see if a hit is dog shit before you start it by looking at your queue. It is worth noting that it does NOT take bonus into account unless you go to the actual turkerview page but it works pretty well otherwise.

    My beef is whenever a food label has like, "made with cane sugar!" on the front, but if you look at the nutritional value in the back , there's also a bunch of fake sugar bs in there.

    and then when you catch something that hasn't been reviewed yet you can play the same game we all do and try to see who breaks first and does it

    lol, well it was definitely underpaid, was more that it wasn't as bad as the poster I responded to said unequivocally.

    Well, technically it's not lying, it's usually that cane sugar comes dead last on the list of fake sugars. I mean I usually don't actually care that much about fake sugars outside of my extreme dislike of high fructose corn syrup and nearly every product made from corn, though.

    I do an ungodly amount of no TV hits for the good of the community and if I can't get a good hourly on something chances are that the hit is dogshit lol.

    While TO is still useful to check for rejects TV is far more accurate on actual completion times.

    I warned people about that requester once I noticed that he switched from his ed testing or w/e it was account with the same garbage hits.

    I TRIED.... but it wasn't enough.

    It is worth noting that he has put out a fire as fuck survey before that didn't involve playing the games but I have only seen that once.

    Fake sugar gives me heinous migraines and given my body's deep love of making too much insulin, I don't enjoy that level of marketing crap because I've grabbed a few bs things like that on accident and been super annoyed later. Arrgghhhhh

    Mostly, I wanted to talk about ANYTHING else than the previous dumpster fire lol.
