Oh, good, everyone else has empty pockets too. As long as I'm not the only one.

The only time I ever caught one was when I was using QBC

I did lose my joy of sending the dispute e-mails though.

I asked @ChrisTurk about this once and this is what he said:

Yes you can. Unlike PC they don't cause any issues/pres. Since QBC controls ALL requests going to mturk from the app it can "share" the data between different portions of the app. So where PC can't read Forker's data in QBC the requester watchers are checked directly off the scraper and pandas are only created if they match the correct criteria so there's no efficiency loss w/ requester watchers (and I've tested having up to 50,000 individual requester watchers and it's still <1ms of processing time, so you can go wild with those)

 

Hey, we're all different.
It was fun seeing the type of responses I would get after offering a screenshot or video clip, containing actual proof, contradicting the bullshit rejections.

 

i recall this survey now, he had a little secret hidden key word on the first page, and I caught it, I didn't mess up. I should of knew he was a shady SOB when I saw that!

 

Should be 3 years around November or something like that, same as yourself. All I do is chat sometimes and review HITs, I don't know how to get badges. Just thought I would say hi to the people I know after spending a few months in a treatment center.

 

hope you are well, for badges you just have to spam @AlexZ daily until he shares the $592/hr batch work he's doing
