Hey honest question why did all the throttling crap even start? Like I use to build full ques of stuff and now I can never do that.

There was an enormous sergey batch right before it started and we figure it had something to do with everyone hammering the servers that day/week/wahtever

"improvements"

Those improvements cost me money, it's like the turk version of screwing people over who know what they're doing.

 

[Bokamo]

if a batch is being throttled you can't accept more than two hits at once

I vote that is no longer a thing.

Is there a way in PandaCrazy to only catch two of the Throttled Sergys? I normally just try to manually stop the PandA once two show up in my que.

If you did not get your 16 dollar survey comet I am about to return 12 of them in about a min.

Edit- All returned

Caught one, thanks. :thumbup:

I don't care so much about throttling as I do about the OG Zoltars and mountains coming back I used to make bank on those

yes!!! Although I really do miss full queue's of batches.

 

[ccmet121]

Caught like 10 Surveycomets. Sending them back now.

Okay, go into Details, and change "Queue hit limit" to two. Then hit save. That'll make it stop collecting until there are less than 2 (or whatever number you set) in your queue.

Yes, when you click on 'details' on a panda, it brings up the options for the panda. The first options in the pop-up pertain to limiting either how many of any HITs you can have in the queue before PC stops collecting a specific HIT, or you can limit how many of that specific HIT are in your queue, regardless of others in your queue.

Or just read what @Jaded posted

Too many people were trying to get zings all at once.

Mturk workers are worker customers, it's a service they're providing you.

I have a "service" they can provide me

Worker customer didn't bother me till you put it this way and now I wanna punch it.

I suppose this is another matter of perspective...but while I would rather be a legit worker / employee than a customer, there's something oddly satisfying about being paid to be a 'customer.'

Worker customer didn't bother me till you put it this way and now I wanna punch it.

Odd, reading her post just now made me look at it in a better light

Edit* Throttling still sucks...no way around that

[SarahAshlee90]

Can you still preview the hit and grab an unthrottled accept link from there?
