I ran I ran so far away

Thanks a lot dude, now that shit is stuck in my head.

Actually that makes a lot of sense.

No it doesn't. They lowered their pay because of amazon's pricing changes. Which made sense. But then adding a ton of new "groups" just puts the cost back up to, or possibly higher than what they were originally spending.

um obviously the answer is @C to the J . there was never any question.




i would be so pissed if they ever did that. these take forever but i have found a way to make a ton of money on them anyway. and if they ever broke it up it would limit my earnings, so.... no. selfishly, no! i hope they never do this.

truly i don't think it would help anyway. this hiatus was for them to try a few things to solve the problem and it's the same if not worse. :/



still 7 min timer. boooo. 15 mins was perfect. excellent gif though!!!

The problem might be the number of pages hitting the servers at the same time. With each person opening multiple tabs at the same time, it is increasing server load in a way they didnt plan for. They planned for one person to open one page at a time.

If they opened immediately, I would consider doing one at a time. As it stands now, though, I'd be making 60¢ an hour doing that. NOoooooooope.

I was so stoked to find that we're getting back our biggest refund ever this year, even with paying the self-employment taxes. Like, enough to take the pressure off for a few months and give us some breathing room.

I agree completely. Its not profitable at all to do one at a time. I was just trying to shed some light on why their servers cant handle the awesome that is a mtruck hug.

Gave the 9y/o the bare bones plot synopsis and now he wants to watch it with me later. I think it might have been the thought of Princess Leia with a rocket launcher that really tipped the scales.
