    Have you told Chrome not to stop the tabs that are in the background?

    If not, you need to right click your chrome icon on your desktop, open up 'properties' and replace 'target' with this..."C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --disable-background-timer-throttling

    (unless it isn't in the same folder as mine then just add the --disable-background-timer-throttling)

    If TO is timing out and HIT Forker is stopping its more than likely related. HIT Finder used to have this issue. It would request TO, TO would timeout and cause it silently fail and I'm not sure if that fix ever made it into the user script (and thus this fork).

    All one window so I don't mix mTurk with other browsing.

    Or you can open a tab and enter "chrome://flags/" in the address bar, then search for "throttling" and set "Throttle expensive background timers" to Disabled.

    I just did this and saw a big improvement.

    EDIT: I almost need to turn off HIT Forker's chirp notification because it won't shut up now. :D

    I threw that back as soon as I saw they wanted over 900 words. If you can make it through that in 2 hours you're a much better turker than me :cheers:

    Also, any time I've ever had a problem with forker/scraper freezing, disabling TO seemed to fix it.

    Hiya. Everything looks all different and stuff! Haven't been as active lately (my name changed on here because of privacy concerns, I have a crazy ex) Work has been stupid busy, and that's usually the only time I get for turking. Can finally get back in the groove of things. Yay!
