    the OCMP5? they rarely drop the qual batch, but in the last 6 months I think they did twice, put them on your OW and keep a lookout here for when they do again, and they will, because after so long they start to weed out bad data workers

    So, it's a batch you have to do to get the rating?

    Most of those quals cost 50 cents each... that means your shitty underpaid $1 survey would be 50 cents instead of $1 unless they take that added expense on themselves.

    The better solution is to just not do most surveys. :surveys:

    When we are playing musical C-SATS is it better to let them expire or return them?

    Return them. Letting them expire doesn't help you at all.

    Give us a warning, then return them so we can be disappointed when we don't catch them. :ay:

    meh saying that you are returning takes effort and at this point I only have 2 pandas left running... I already got the other ones so it is the $1.12 + the 80 cent one.

    Agreed. If you're going to return something, just return them, no need to set a giant countdown on it. I can understand something along the lines of 'returning in a minute', but it makes me laugh when I see "i'm returning this in 10 minutes" or something. You're wasting your own time and your queue space.
    Not picking on anyone here, just something I've noticed over time lol.

    EDIT - I am not saying "don't let people know you're returning", by the way.

    I only see the point of doing that if it's like a $20 survey or something and you're trying to give people the chance to grab it from here...for something small..bleh.

    Yeah, but if people want it bad enough, they'll already have the PANDA running for it. It will get snatched up instantly anyway.
