I have posted this before but computer does make a difference. My sons 1500 dollar apple almost always caps. My 300 dollar Hp never does. Same IP. I do not get any more Zoltars if he is here or gone. When my son had to use my daughters cheap laptop for a day, he did not cap. Location makes a difference too. My daughter lives uptown from us, same Internet provider but when my son is over there, he does not cap. Just a thought.
there are 3 turkers in your family? that's where all the hits go...

The requester was at one point active on MTG, but be really careful w/ his HITs because dude will absolutely reject for incorrect answers. Everyone from there that I know of stopped doing them because he rejected so often.

Maybe he's better about it nowadays, but he pretty much disappeared from the community after getting hassled about all the rejections. Some of them were deserved, but a good amount were also pretty ticky-tacky.
It usually isn't a good sign when a requester has keep giving out quals. If the hits and pay were fair, the first qualled people would do all of them and there would be no need for more qualled people.

That sounds awesome

It is. I spent $120 one day. Bought 3 laptops, 12 tablets and 5 cell phones.

Repaired and resold two of the laptops (just needed OS reinstalled), factory reset 5 of the tablets (the rest were cracked or not repairable) and trashed 3 of the phones.

Sold the laptops for $100 each. Tablets for $25. The cell phones that did work were an older LG and a Galaxy S6 Active. Took them to a friend that runs a cell phone repair shop, he gave me $150 for them.

not bad turnaround for 24 hours...

I would say run PC with Zoltars only and if you use Chrome remember to put the PC page alone on a window. That blew my mind, first time i tried that.
Still doesn't help. Sorry.

Anyone else?

Thats right. My secrets out. With the age and gender differentials, we take them all and are living in the lap of luxury in KCMO. Now all I need to find is an over 40 male and MTurk will be mine, all mine.
