So. Much. Writing. in surveys lately.

I get that there could be some writing to "prove" I'm not a bot. But damn there seems to be a lot more of the "tell me how you feel about the above stuff" prompts since the bot scare.

I'm returning a lot more surveys than I used to!! (I'll write a little but if they use any of the prompts "in detail, vivid, like it happened today..." I'm pressing return.)

i don't think the writing has thing 1 to do w/ the bot invasion. More and more requestors/students are expecting their work to be done for them, that is, they want us to write the greater portions of their research papers. That's laziness.

What did you finish at yesterday? Was that you at 1 on that leaderboard?
$120

I didn't add the script.
I think it's cool but honestly I would probably push myself too far with it.
I just go with my flow these days so I don't burn myself out like I used to.

It feels like the weekend, Woke up expecting to panda some Z's. But nope, and where the regular HIT's at yo! Im just really curious if this slowness has to do with the whole bot scare at all.

Nice. I'm just really into completely pointless and unnecessary competitions. It may be a self-esteem thing.

I can't remember who asked about PickFu bonuses...I just got one immediately after submitting HIT.
I think the HIT paid .08 to start.

Geez today is just not cutting it for me. I'll be back later. Not saying it's going to get better, but I have other things that are better worth my time than this suffering. Haha
