    can you guys click on that ad.fly link, it'll have some ad, skip it, then just search something in google. That's all I ask. Only do it once and I just need a few people to try it so I can see how it works on my end. It seems like spam but it's not, it's a trial run I'm doing for a potential HIT. Thanks

    adfly works fine. I use it when I add things to hits worth turking for on reddit.

    What do you mean Andy? Hits worth turking on reddit uses it all the time. Can you explain what TC and arbitrage means please. I don't want to get into trouble and lose my position.

    You are using mturk to get money from ad revenue, directly.

    This is against amazon T&C. (To create a hit specifically for this purpose).

    Allow me to explain:
    What Andy is trying to say is, if you are planing to create Mturk HITs asking people to go through your adfly links; that is against the mturk terms and conditions(T&C). Posting links to HITs you consider to be "worth doing" on reddit using adfly is in not.

    Thank you, Acustic! I was lost. I don't hang out on reddit and didn't know what adfly was.

    Yeah, well with that attitude I sure as hell am not going to click it for you on here either. Oh crap, I wouldn't have done it anyway. That is what the sandbox is for if you were really wondering how it would work on your end and not just trying to get us to do it for free. That is pretty low IMO.

    lol is it pretty low? I just wanted to see how it works and if I could develop a HIT somehow with it on mTurk. From all 19 clicks I've gotten, I've made $.0003. Now do you really think I was scheming to make 3/100 of a penny on here? Be forreal man I can make 100x that on mTurk in 2 minutes. I was just wanting to see, one late night, how it worked. Your acting as if im running some elaborate scheme to make a fraction of a penny. chill out
