    Mark Klein is screwing workers out of money... by spamming his hits, which takes up precious seconds.. uh... hmm.

    This was worth doing at 25 min. or so, and might be worth the panda, but poor English made it a bit confusing.

    Yes, he should. But it's not costing us any money. I waste more precious time in here posting dancing gifs and liking people's posts than anything Mark Klein throws at us :lol:

    I got a block from klein a while back for doing an extra one of a block of hit or w/e he says didn't even bother messaging just ignore him now.

    I can't remember but I think the hits were maybe .05 something to do with olympics

    One would think someone who doesn't know how to use a blocklist or a hide requester script would sympathize with someone who doesn't know how to batch.

    The guy is using a blocklist. But even with a blocklist it still will show up as empty space for a second until more shit goes up =p

    I messaged Klein once about the hits that states that they are already answered and he replied quickly telling me that he killed those Zombie hits with a crowbar.

    This has to be one of the most whiny and cringe-y reviews I've seen so far. Not even gonna tackle most of that, but I do have a solution that resolves all the reviewer's issues without any 3rd party scripts. Ready? It's pretty outlandish:

    Search reward >40 cents. :eek:

    True. I don't like it either, but I wouldn't mind as much if they'd all drop at the same time. Going on 2+ hours from what I've seen.

    The worst problem with this is that it can potentially push a hit you are searching for off of the first page so fast that your scraper never sees it. Same could be said of Set Master dump everyday.

    ...Based on those maths, I have to wonder how much money they lost while they were calculating how much money we're losing (and then how much money we lost while we were reading the thing they wrote while losing money about us also losing money).

    So like when Robin Williams used to drop? lol

    Set master at least knows how to batch though. They just put up a lot of batches up at once

    Ahh, look at that. I got all confused by the math part and glossed right over that. To be fair, my HS rarely has more than 5 or 6 hits at any time anyway because I block everyone. To claim those blank spots are stealing his ability to make untold millions is a stretch.

    True, but the potential for missed page 1 hits remains.

    If you have ever done SET masters.. they would suck if it was one mega batch imho.
