I've come up with a stop gap solution that seems to be working. If you copy the 'accept' link and put it straight into PC under 'add a job' (don't try to open a tab to grab info, it just redirects you) it sets up the panda.
New site is fine for me I only use 1 or 2 scripts anyway. If this update slows down most of the turk population while they wait for their scripts to work again I might have an easier time grabbing hits
You will probably benefit more than most. I think it may piss a lot of people off and they just go elsewhere which would be more HITs to those who stick around but at the same time requesters will get angry their work isn't being done fast enough or efficiently and they'll leave too.
So far it's just as bad (can't catch anything on first go) but there's no way to catch the stuff I missed with PANDA and I can't even store the accept URL in the process. Gonna give Panda Crazy a go for the first time and see if that helps.
I've left it. Always thinking I was done with it for good. And always had to come back. Never stayed gone for as long as a full year.
heard something about a new forum everyone went to. but for me i just find i get a lot more work done when im not here.
I remember when I was around it started fracturing like a year in. I guess the fractures still happen. I dont get it but whatever you know? I dig this place. I dig it.
Genuinely greedy and entitled people is what caused most of the problems back in the day. I still get a kick out of how many people got butt hurt when a batch got posted on a forum where we share batches. I don't think some people understood the whole point of this forum.
i think most people move on from turking too eventually. i dont know many who want to do this forever. but im sure some of us will ride the mturk train all the way to the crash.

this is the best idea so far someone on reddit had for the turkmaster issue: " What I did was get the "Panda Crazy" script. Now, whenever I get the inevitable "No HITs available" message, I go back to HIT scraper, right click on the "Reward & PandA" link, copy the link address, go to Panda Crazy, click the "Add Job" button and paste the link there. If it's a survey, I check the "collect only once" button." ill give it a go .doesn't sound like a fix but its another good idea thrown in the basket.
