No.

You bob for apples in the toilet....and you like it.

I guess the annoying part to me is that the wording suggests they probably do know the specific scripts out there so they could just directly refer to them or the settings so we know what is/isn't allowed instead of having us work in fear.

Everyone turn off all your scripts, just to be safe.

Mturk should be focused on getting us more money. Because if people are not making enough money they will leave the Mturk platform. We are the product that they are selling. Without us there is nothing.

This is perfect, especially since I'm new to this and don't use scripts yet! Now I don't have to learn how to!

There's not much they don't know. Also, they could be on the forum right now. hi

 

[Money Loving Spider]

Really, if I couldn't use any script at all except for PandA I'd be totally fine with that, but by the language it sounds like even that is in a grey area now.

If you're going to be our official representative to our Mturk bosses, we are so fucked.

 

[Tcs757]

All of this really sucks because some people lean pretty heavily on MTurk for income, but the only way for them to do that is to use some scripts. Now they just have to be in a perpetual state of fear and hope they don't lose a potentially large portion of their livelihood or not use scripts and not make enough. It's one big shitty cycle.
