Writing scripts is the best thing you can do as a Turker.

The endgame of writing scripts is that you can emerge as someone who can write scripts for a living instead of Turking. This has been the path taken by many of the past community script writers who you don't hear about anymore because their compulsion to write code has led them to better pastures.
What if you find writing scripts extremely boring?

Hi Sassy :)

I kid, just visiting I aint staying. Blame TJ, he linked trick or treat discussion, then well could't help myself. I'm not adult enough. But for you i'll be on my way :)
i'm certain you're sassier than i am, but I agree we can blame Tjololo @Tjololo for all the things

Don't let them bully you. You deserve a trip and three months off is highly recommended! :wink:
I'm gonna be so poor when I get back though.

It is probably one of the most useful tools for turking. It might be a bit hard to take off or get started, it can be as easy or challenging as you make it.
I think the hardest part (and the part I keep giving up on cause I can't be bothered) is jumping from what it's teaching you, to applying that to turking stuff.

That sentence sounds like a jumble of nonsense.

I won't be here from december to february (except to check in occasionally.) :x
But you're going to miss all the posts about how it's really slow during the holidays and how it might never pick up again. Are you sure you want to leave?
