    I saw it sitting there and was once again too scared. Honestly, I just need to pop the cherry and let it go.

    If the power supply is old enough on your computer it might not be an issue and it won't instantly kill it.. but...

    I don't know why this isn't more common knowledge but :dunno:

    On a side note you can plug a usb cable into these and it will send a signal for your computer to shut down safely.

    I didn't do anything to fix my issue, but I was just about to go delete them when OW and HF stopped shouting about me being logged out/ in. Just make sure you have backups of everything :afraid:

    Hello :emoji_wave: I was an occasional poster on the old site. Glad I've tracked you all down. My mom passed in November and I had to put my 16 year old cat to sleep 5 weeks later so I've been off the grid and getting my life sorted out. Yesterday was my first day back Turking. I will figure batches out in 2017!

    Speaking of are A9s still posting on Thursday/Fridays. I was last on around Halloween and I was maxing out on them every Friday for a few weeks. Everything else looks unchanged so far. Glad to be back!

    Amazon Requester Inc - Customer Interests has been posting some batches lately, but they don't seem to last long. Haven't seen any A9s in a while.
