    Leapforce is an entirely separate company from Lionbridge. I know a lady who worked for Leapforce from early February 2009 until late spring/early summer this year prior to her retirement. From what I understand Leapforce does similar work to some of the Lionbridge work, but Lionbridge has other "divisions". caveat Unless things have changed in the past six months

    I think those are vastly underpaid... you get $1 for them stealing a slot of your queue for a few days..


    It is true though. :( Didn't they used to be 50 cents for less work?

    I may have missed that batch due to traveling. The last batch I did (which I think was the first one) was 80 cents. Even in the HITs today it says payment is 75 cents but then it's 72.

    That is still like 7 or $8/hr

    :( well at least for those of you that like them they seem to go up a lot.. I also just hear about them crashing a lot... I honestly would give the requester less shit if I didn't keep hearing about the hits crashing and burning.

    I can't remember if I did the demographics portion so I was going to do it again and none of the drop down boxes seem to work for me.

    There were 80 and 90 cent batches. The work was different between the two.

    But with an 8 cent pay drop (and presumably going lower) I wouldn't touch these with a 10 ft pole. They were decent over the holiday weekend, though. :(

    Yeah, I'm not touching them even though I did them in ~5 minutes during the 80 cent batch. Don't take well to 10% pay cuts. :-(
