    Ironic considering the title of the survey. :lol:

    They responded!

    "Thanks for letting me know! We're not sure went wrong, but hope to have it fixed in a few minutes. Thanks again!"

    Watch out for it again I guess...

    Good requester. Responsive and quick. :ok:

    I really hate the question: "What is the most that you would be willing to pay for..."

    "What is the most that you would be willing to pay for a brand new Ferrari?"

    $265.12, my bank balance.

    Well, if someone would give me a loan I'd pay more, sell the Ferrari and profit.

    Now if you want to ask me what I'd pay for a box of cereal, I can do that.

    Only the ending of it. Was busy eating my delicious meal of chicken and stuffing with some deviled eggs.

    I was thinking the same thing, likely on the same survey. I was thinking "wow i bet that's valuable...hmm maybe I'd spend $20 on it in a yard sale and try to resell it".

    Why can't they use quals??! :hairpull: Accepted then I'm told to return it because I've done the maximum number of HITs allowed by them. Ugh.

    Surprisingly it let me do this one. I hate the "maximum number" message because it is clearly a BS explanation. If that were really true you would never ever be able to work for the requester again.

    The forced returns are especially annoying when you have a high value survey with a long timer. You save it until you have a nice big block of time to work on it, click the link, and are immediately told to return it. At least the immediate message in the HIT frame avoids this.

    But yeah. Quals. Maybe requesters should be charged a penny every time some accepts and returns a HIT. Would solve so many problems: forced returns, annoying writing, underpaid garbage, broken hits... lol

    If you see something about mindfulness from a requester named Heather, run the other way. It's the hit that never ends, even though it only pays a quarter. Seriously. TA said it was paying $1 an hour by the time I gave up and handed it back.
