I'm just curious, for the category validation script why did you use
'input[name="objectView"][value="No"]' instead of just adding '#completeObject' on the same line?

Man people are so competitive. Been going through boards here, Reddit, and other forums and people are so harsh when people try to help. I think I may set up camp here for good lol AKA y'all are stuck with me

A lot of people have the mentality that if they help other people,
they are potentially taking work away from themselves.
with batches, this might be true
- BUT -
when you help other people, you're more likely to be helped in the future
as for surveys, they're all one per person anyway,
so not posting that hit just doesn't make sense
not like you're saving an extra survey for your mom to do tomorrow or anything
I've seen the competitive edge on other sites and I think it's counterproductive
getting worked up and defensive puts you in a negative state of mind
and your anger and frustration and stress will inhibit your own abilities
as far as reddit, it's useful to see the HWTF,
but people are so strict about defining what constitutes an HWTF
and get all pissy when their definition isn't adhered to,
despite the site itself saying there is no general rule,
only a guideline of approximately $6/hr

Reading your posts is like doing a survey that starts off by asking you to count all of the pronouns that show up

It's not just that. People post questions from how to use scripts to basic signing up stuff and people are rude. I mean I saw one person post about being stuck at $15 a day, and people attacked them. Another thing I see a lot is really good advice being shunned because it requires actual work. Like people expect to be making $50 an hour without having to do anything. They all throw stones at the people trying to help. God forbid you tell someone to learn how to code, or another skill. It's shameless

Good example here. Person A writes a long post about not being able to make more than $10 a day. Person B talks to them about scripts, TO, private quals, some basic quals to get, and mentions they should learn how to write personalized scripts. Person A then freaks out in huge post about how that person is a moron and they are lying about earning potential. Then more people come in and start saying this person is photo shopping the ability to make $70 a day on Mturk. just rip them apart for helping

Attacking others is far easier than actually achieving something. I should know, I do it all the time.
