wow this new mts update is making my hit catcher worse. I clear all my pandas and yet its still putting things i was trying to catch yesterday in there. a little ridiculous when they just keep putting themselves in my catcher over and over and over and over and over.

They definitely didn't address this issue in the latest update. I wouldn't say its worst for me, but it still catches 2 hits most of the time. This latest update turned off most of my alarms, though. I had to re-enable them a-gain.

I've stopped using MTS since Turkerhub took over, they took a perfectly good product and ruined it

yeah i had to reset mine as well on the last one, Normally i would get the double or triple catch of the same hit , but with this update its literally re adding hits to my catcher by itself, no matter if i delete them or delete all in my catcher, If i were to wait a few seconds more will just load into it by them self . Usually the same ones i deleted already. even getting some in there from yesterday that i deleted like 5 times already.

 

[turker4hire]

Its been happing a lot to me before the newest update as well. but this new one is adding them more consistently in there, No matter if i delete all, I place one in there and come back to about 10 or more in a span of a few seconds to few minutes.

I also noticed that if I catch a hit in HF and then delete it, I'll find it still listed in my HC trying to run.

yes that too. its really annoying, i cant tell what hits im trying to catch at this point because it just constantly keeps loading hits that are set to running

That's not good!! Do you have any other scripts running? If not, I would probably try uninstalling and reinstalling it. I wonder if its possible to download a previous version of MTS somewhere?

no scripts running either at the moment. im just trying to power through it by constantly checking my catcher and removing ones i dont need in there so i can try and catch the ones i want.

Sorry to hear that, man. That's got to be super frustrating and annoying. How can you work with that issue?

At the very end of a long study, there is a captcha box that says “are you a robot”

Once you check these you cannot uncheck them.

Right above that it (after the study is over and you are entering your demographics) it says

“Do not click this box.”

I see an “are you a robot” box, I immediately click it before reading anything else on the screen.

I sent the guy message. If that counts against you I'm going to be pretty freaking pissed.

Edit: it was Approved.
