of course it is.....here I am slaving away at that repetitive natural disaster survey (um, I DO live in Florida.......every year they put huge signs out on the roads reminding us how to prepare). So, of course I come back to the thread to see that there was a survey that took less than half the time and paid twice as much.
I had already heard the thing about thing, too.

Am I the only nerd who thinks these hits are a bad idea for workers? I mean, I hate to be grandma, but this is totally against terms of service, and above and beyond that these folks have multiple accounts. If they choose to block you on those multiple accounts, what recourse do you have? None, because you as a worker have also been violating terms of service.
I like money more than what you're saying.

To be fair, even on totally legit above-board HITs you don't have any recourse because Mturk doesn't care.

@Pleco smiley or something?
You might not have any recourse, but at least you could present a real and justified argument.
That is why I dont do the 60 second ones. No way to accept and do the hit properly in that time.
