What is anyone even doing in WoW these days? I'm leaving my sub deactivated until they AT LEAST announce the date for Legion. :|
I just resubbed after like a year of not playing. I didn't play the current expansion much, so I only have one character at max level. I've just been working on leveling others so I can have at least a few at cap by the time Legion rolls out.

I'm reading an article about using MTurk and the researcher uses the word "skimming" which they then define as a way "in which workers accept and work on multiple HITs at once". I've never heard this used before. Does anyone else call multitasking on MTurk "skimming"?

That makes sense. I only have one toon at max level as well. But horribly undergeared because I don't raid and I haven't done many dungeons since Wrath. :rolleyes: I really want to get an Ally toon to max level, but who knows if that's going to actually happen ever.

Nope. I just use "multitasking" or "multitabbing". "Skimming" sounds REALLY shady and like workers don't really pay attention to what they're doing.

No. Some HITS have long timers and some requesters, such as the right now not loved OCMP75, say to do multiple hits at once right on their hits. As long as you do the work properly and in good faith I'd call it working smart.

I like the Mk II HIT DB. But didn't you say you have a backup of your DB? You should install whichever one you had before, so you can import the backup first. Once that's done, you can convert it to Mk II, if that's what you decide to go with.
