Mturk should be focused on getting us more money. Because if people are not making enough money they will leave the Mturk platform. We are the product that they are selling. Without us there is nothing.

Dusting off and re-arranging the legalese is probably a lot easier than figuring out a way to revise their web 1.0 mtruk infrastructure.

"Should we make the site more capable?"

"Na, let's just tell them they can't access it too much."

It is vague, and hear me out, I think they're really going after scripts that aid in completing the HIT itself and not so much grabbing the HIT. I've set the Hit Catcher to 2500 MS (2.5 seconds) update, as that can't be too sketchy.

Happy early Halloween from Amazon...

how would they know if a script is helping complete the hit or clicking the submit button? filling out some parts of the hit too?
