I know I'm a filthy lurker who lives in the drain pipes and only occasionally surfaces to steal the chips someone forgot about in the back of the pantry, but I like visiting this forum. The vast majority of you have never come across to me as unwelcoming or unfriendly. I appreciate the hits that get posted and enjoy all the ridiculous conversations. It makes turking a little more interesting for me....even if it doesn't help my 2 second attention span to constantly switch between actual working and reading shitposts (no I will not turn on Hits Only Mode, never suggest that again).
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

But then if no one is arguing where will I get my drama?

Some people are really excited about their day... every day... multiple times a day.

I'm not saying people shouldn't be able to post their earnings but people should definitely better consider when they are stepping into spamming territory.
I agree that some people can be a little excessive. I just don't want to see complaints about it anymore. All it does is discourage people from posting anything at all and that's not healthy for a forum. There's gotta be a script floating around that hides PE posts, right? Or maybe someone could make one if they feel it's that bad? We have an ignore button, too. There shouldn't be anything at all to complain about.

Here, how about this: I bet you're not even a real sunflower.

Come get me.

Thanks for letting us know about the ignore button! :D

I think I'm going to have to go lie down, this is almost too much.

That aside, the HITs of yours that I've managed to catch have been great and I appreciate a responsive and fair requester.
I'm glad! I really enjoy interacting with people who do work for us (and even with those of you who don't) here and via email, so it works out well both ways.

By the way, I apologize for derailing the thread for so long, to everyone that's trying to work. We've been recognizing some problems over the last couple months and this month has actually been pretty dismal for activity levels around here, so we just want to address things now, before it gets any worse.

I can not stress enough that if you see a problem here that's not being addressed, please make use of the Forum Guidelines and Moderation Discussion Thread. We want to do better and we can't always do that if people aren't communicating with us.

I like small potatoes. Especially small motivational potatoes.

(If you do ever have question don't hesitate to reach out. We've been accused of being TOO helpful so I'm sure you'll get about 6 answers to any question you have.)
I really need to set aside some time and ask some questions. I don't feel I get all I can out of my turking, considering where I'm at with my submission count. I feel like I should be doing better than $20 for ~4 hours work on average. I know that's on me, and I need to learn more about what I'm doing. I won't get into more here, but I will post elsewhere today/tonight and start a conversation.

Thank you. Small potatoes are best potatoes - especially salt potatoes drowning in butter.
