Whats everyone's take on ScoutIt? I'm new and still working under the 100 daily hit limit. Is this a good requester for someone working toward numbers?

No not ScoutIt. There's plenty of other awful requesters to get your numbers up.
Take a look at this.

I wouldn't. There are better requesters. I'll try and think of some for you.

good "late" morning to everyone.

 

[Jezebel]

A rare wallstreet is up. Can't post link.

 

[CatWhiskers]

Nope, a survey asking 20 min for .50 cents. That requester has been giving out shitty work the past few days too.

Azazael apparently took that one too. I didn't expect it to be the same question. And I'm really sorry for not warning people more intensely. I tried to put it away from my mind as best as possible, but I'm still shaky. When I got through it, I wanted to pretend like I never took it, so I just said it was pretty short for $1.50, even thought it gave me a panic attack. The whole mess is terrible. I want to leave a TO review but I don't even remember the requester. I just never, ever want to see them again.

Is it worse than what's his head...M. Strange Taki or whatever the hell his name is with all the gory images?

To me, yes.
Gore was nothing compared to what I was asked to do for them.
They asked me to visualize a pretty fucking intense thing in a normal consumer survey/categorization task appearing study. I don't know who thought it was okay to ask that.
If it's allowed in PMs, I can tell you, but I don't think it is still. Seriously, though, whoever sent out this survey, when they asked the standard "what we thoguht their research was for" question, I told them "The cheapest way to provide mturk workers with lasting emotional trauma?" (paraphrased because i don't remember EXACTLY, but yeah, I'm pissed.) Let's just say that when i had the really violent panic attack describing that to them actually fit what they asked me to visualize.
