I love the optimism and positivity on this site

Lol. It's okay if I get none. I'm just glad you guys are posting.

Two of the most helpful, but often forgotten scripts IMO.

Thank you, definitely will install those! :heartpulse:

I always see people recommend Plus Plus, but it has never worked for me, for some reason. Plus has always worked great, though.

Not bad. Picked up some more offline work so I'm happy about that. Too hot out there though!

Right on! Has to be nice to get a little break from turking, especially on a good day for it. I understand about the heat, it's out of control already. 99 in OKC today, and got an email alert this morning that the heat index will be up around 106. It's balls, and too early in the year for such things.

Okay, sorry to be so annoying ... these are the scripts I've remembered and found so far, I'm missing a ton of stuff and can't even think of what all I'm missing. Anyone want to throw me some more scripts I need to install? I know I need the Customer Interests/Amazon one but I've searched the forum and can't find the link.

What scripts are vital to you is independent of each turker. There are things some work on and some don't, or needs that different people have. Your best bet for finding things you think you need is a google search for the item, adding greasyfork as a term. A google search for @clickhappier 's page on greasyfork is great too, because CH put a lot of effort into compiling a nice list of common scripts. As far as what script to use to monitor for hits, that is also up to personal preference and such. There are a few script-specific threads though that are super helpful to get an idea of how each one works and how it might best help you.

pretty sure someone's answered this because I'm a turtle, but whatevs. Good luck in getting it all sorted!

Thank you! I'm having trouble remembering what all I need and used to have so any ideas thrown out there are helpful.
