    I enjoy TV, but then seeing the hourly on some of these, really lets the air out of the balloon.

    I'm interested to see how this goes tbh, because I think getting paid for being screened out might become a little more common w/ the ToS changes. Its not like a ton of Requesters are gonna care, but there are enough legit academic institutions to where I could see people lying to get screened out for "known quantity" academic accounts becoming a thing.. Like those Yale game HITs where folks try to weasel out of playing the game so they can re-queue the lobby multiple times for $2, lol.

    This probably took me about ~9 minutes, but then I probably wrote 2-3 pages of response to the provided questions.

    He can afford infinite paper, 2 extra arms from an exo-skeleton, a possibly fake dog, ipad, computer, phone, etc, but when it came to buying a bluetooth headset, that is where he decided draw the line?!

    Sometimes I write them and then immediately regret it because I'm pretty sure my brain is actually evil with the ideas I come up with but am unsure how obvious they are to others.. :emoji_upside_down:
    Its technically against the ToS for a Requester to put out a task that requires the worker to return it after acceptance.. so Pins, screeners, etc.

    In theory? Great. Requesters will use small, tiny paid (.03) for demographics screeners.

    In practice? Nothing changes, salty morons report Pinterest, they leave the platform after having their account suspended like ANH.

    Well, best of both worlds, pins become a guaranteed penny hit, and if there's tasks available you get bonused.

    Are bonus payments charged at the same rate for requesters as HITs?
