GETTING STARTED WITH SCRIPTS
WHY?
-Can help with efficiency
-Track data/save numbers/etc.
HOW?
-By installing tampermonkey or greasemonkey on chrome/ff, youll be able to use scripts which can be found at
greasyfork, etc.
HOLD ON
Before you start
-Remember scripts are helpful, but won't magically make you more money with no effort on your end (ie. no instant-gratification usually)
-
If you do not know how a script works, id suggest
not using it then
-In addition, not knowing how a script works make you even more responsible for your own damn errors.
A rejection because you left a script running is your own fault, dumbass!!
-If a script works for someone (ie. they know how to use it),
don't always assume that it'll work as well for you.
Keep in mind
-Scripts are
NOT for cheating
-Again, don't install a script if you don't know what it does.
-Scripts don't make you a better worker, especially if you don't understand why/how they work.
WHAT?
Track data/Save Numbers:
-
HITDB - Database of past hits. needs to be manually updated.
-
Turkopticon - shows requester ratings that are used "to add context" (ie. colors are cool, but dont be a lazy ass and read that shit)
-
Save AA time - On the pending part of the dashboard (where you look at the actual hits youve done, not just the number) shows an AA time. Not retroactive.
-
Scroll to work space - Scrolls to work space. I love this script
-
linkify plus plus- useful script that linkifys links
when in doubt, just check out these links:

REMEMBER!
-Less is more- you dont need to have all scripts active at the same time. In fact, it's probably better that you have the bare minimum running. Some scripts stay active on certain HIT frames (zing script, etc.) but others stay active at all times, which can lead to an accidental submission, etc. For this reason, it is important that you keep track of what scripts stay active, and on what pages.
--For example: I have about 7 active scripts when I open my dashboard (all of which are things like 'projected earnings,' HITdb, etc.). When I open the 'HITs' page (All hits), I have 4 (TO, Great hit export, Database, and an ID script).
---One very important reason for this is, besides accidental submissions etc., Some scripts cause a page request, which adds to your already very stretched limit. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? It means that you can't PANDA things as fast.
