    I dont know, I remember seeing a long long long winded debate about it quite some time back. Somebody who had an account open for years got banned after he admitted to having scripts to the wrong person. I dont know what kind or who he emailed about it and let know but just for safety, friendly warning. Who knows, couldve all been some crazy bastard making shit up but I like to err on the side of caution because I need this mturk money to live.

    I think there's a difference between "script" and "script" in these definitions.
    I think assigning your keyboard to do 1, 2, 3 to fill radio bubbles is not what they may be implying.
    I think by script in the TOS, they are meaning a "set it and forget it" to complete HITs type of script.

    I would agree with it not really meaning setting a hot key (or similar) since you still are manually picking everything but if the script you have running auto selects an option as well, I'd say that falls under their definition. Just my opinion.

    "Thanks for the info, I'm glad you have that numpad script. I agree it's fairly cumbersome to click so much. Also thank you for relaying the information about going back to the normal pay."

    The script I use for pi search (and the one I linked to him) doesn't do any of that.
