definitely a slow start today. oh well. i'll be up late anyways listening to the ALCS.
Hubby yesterday was so annoyed with the NLCS game. he forgot it was an early start and he's a Dodger fan. By the time he was free to watch they were ahead. but he was too superstitious to turn it on. In case he jinxed them. So he found random shit to do and listened to it instead, Hahaha.

Just curious what everyone's opinion is. When you take a survey/study and midway through it they say you have a chance at a bonus that you can either donate or keep to yourself or however they decide to word it. I'm just curious how most other Turkers respond to that. Do you donate it or do you keep it? Do you think that the requester really donates the money or do you think it is just to see what choice you pick.
I know some say that if you contact them they can provide proof that money the was actually donated.

Good Morning all, could anyone give me some pointers. I am new on this forum but not to forums in general. So my problem here is when I try to post a hit it tells me I can't because it is spam like. What am I doing wrong? I had no problem when I was on TurkerNation.
We have it set so you can't post links until you've made 3 posts without links. (It's a spam prevention thing) and I see that someone else has already answered so I'm just gonna give you this welcome gif:

I always keep it. When I donate money I do it to an organization of my own choosing and I also track it for my own tax purposes. I have always kept the money they want me to donate and up to now they always pay the bonus to me. I imagine they are looking for a tax write off and it is of no benefit to any of us.

Urgh so not feeling the grind this morning.
Does anyone want to feed penny hits, that way that I don't need to think about it ? Or see cos my eyesight's terrible today too. I've got everything up to 150% from normal.

i never donate. we are all doing AMT because we have ourselves we have to look out for. I also don't trust most of the requestors saying they will donate. too often deception is used in these surveys and i would be surprised if they were actually telling the truth.
