He is paying, though...albeit next to nothing...

That's the thing for me though.
I'm so butthurt that anyone would email me for anything under a $1 that I refuse to do it.

Its the first step towards having an internet policy like Chinas where they censor what you can talk about, what websites you can visit and how you can use the internet. It wont be that dramatic at first but thats the eventual outcome. It starts with them having faster lanes for certain websites they deem "appropriate" but later down the line they become the thought/information police.

Pros: ISPs eventually will be able to ban racist trolls and they will lose the ability to comment on websites like reddit and youtube.
Cons: Censorship and the outright destruction of freedom of speech on the net.

Our 'values' are so much more open, freedom-loving, and--frankly, rancorous--that what China has done will never happen here. Our entire democratic system is designed to prevent that kind of nonsense.

I think I'm just confused about what you're actually saying but the only way to get rid of PREs is to go slower regardless of how hits are going into your queue.

I could be wrong but I think you have always been able to queue up 25 hits. I have been using panda s so long that I have not loaded a queue by hand in years. It is really weird to get a page error from SUBMITTING a hit...I guess on the 15 next month we will see what we have...

I couldn't even catch a HIT about it

I've seen a few like this since I've been turking. I get kinda hurt that I can't even catch hits about things I know a lot about hahah

I'm so butthurt that anyone would email me for anything under a $1 that I refuse to do it.

I just did one for .83 that was emailed me and the hourly was great! I also went slowly. Could be done way faster.

Time: 02:20
Hourly: $21.22

But I have barely earned anything this week and last week, so I'm doing anything that gets thrown my way rn.

Not sure if this is what is causing your throttling, but when I run the "go Ham" feature in Panda Crazy and it accepts hits really fast for me (or looks for hits really fast), I'm then throttled for a little while after that.

It seems the throttling kicks in for me after a brief period of rapid work/sending a request to mturk, and doesn't slow down until I've slowed down for an undetermined period of time.

So maybe setting PC to accept the hits at right about the pace you're working on them would eliminated the throttling? I'm doing 5s pretty fast with a few pandas running and I have no PREs at all.

could well be..I do not get them with r's because they are ten clicks before You get the next one....by the way r's just dropped

Someone just brought all of us in my office pulled pork-strami sandwiches.

I'm not that much of a meat eater, but holy chit was the half sandwich I ate really, really good (I could only manage half, gave the other half to our general contractor).

If you've never had one and like hot meat sandwiches, let me recommend trying one.
