    God dude, I truly don't want to get into the thick of this absolute stupid shit but this is insane.

    You did not solely "spend your time wisely" the ten thousand people who came before you and didn't treat MTurk purely as a "zero sum game" gave you a springboard the size of Montana.

    Congrats on being a self made turker who never used a single resource outside of your own blood/sweat/tears/making

    I love you old fucks who are "too good for this place" now but also this kind of take is dog doodoo and just outright "fuck you" to the massive amount of people who helped you get from A to Z even if you required less hand holding than the unwashed masses.

    But also yeah if you do a $45 survey twice you deserve the rejection.. I actually don't know how we got from that topic to "EVERY OTHER SCHMUCK MUST HAVE A HARDER PATH THAN I DID" but both takes are dumb.

    Also for you new whippersnappers those old farts have also laid more ground work to help you than you'll ever get to sniff and the vast majority of your tooling is a direct result of their work so don't go mouthing off to the old timers because half of them did walk uphill in snow both ways and dodged more bugs than a carcass in a Florida swamp and you need to stay off their lawn

    Idk if there is any other group I missed fussing at but assume I'm wagging a finger at the Chipotle hacker too :nono:

    I've had this reply circling my head for the last 10 minutes but felt I was getting a bit too heated. Thank you for expressing this...

    This thing where the well established turkers pop in just to say how great they are doing and how terrible we are at figuring it out, while simultaneously not offering any help or insight beyond the vaguest of generalizations... is not exactly motivation. Its one thing to post PE to motivate if you're offering some kind of mentoring, but just to brag is not very cool

    In this very thread @Moridin stated how much he learned from another member in getting started, but apparently feels no obligation to pay it forward...

    Anyway, I guess I need to get more back into turking and less into posting

    Since we're expressing our motivations for getting angry and all that, here's mine: I just like getting involved in drama so that I have an excuse not to do any actual work.

    My second post addresses this. It's give/take. They've already "paid it back" and usually like 18,000 fold long before you got an MTurk account.

    And one day you'll be one of them lol. This has been the cycle for a decade now https://forum.turkerview.com/posts/408275/

    upload_2021-8-23_18-8-11.png

    Run from it, hide from it, the annoyance of seeing the same question for the 50,000th time comes for us all from time to time.

    I'm not sure what would be expected.. I think anyone who has been here months know @Moridin is absurdly correct in his take that Willow is like top 1% of helpful people here all time.. and I can assure you he's "paid it forward" directly to you individually in massive amounts assuming you use any tool put out on this site.

    I don't doubt that's all true, but if you're currently acting a certain way in how you present yourself to the people here and now, then you got to expect a certain reaction.. if you dont want that reaction, then maybe abstain from making shit posts...

    Sure that's reasonable IMO.

    I'm just here to yell at both sides because everyone is both correct and incorrect while I am obviously completely infallible on all accounts :emoji_innocent::emoji_sweat_smile:

    Also sorry @Moridin if my post was a little harsh having a shit day and was a bit "IM BEING PERSONALLY ATTACKED" on the zero sum game bit >.> just me projecting absolutely should have proof read that over a few times & I didn't, I'm sorry.

    You forgot resisting the urge to yell "just f**king use search for it" (especially since looking for stuff yourself is a basic survival skill on MTurk) or telling the many MANY newbies who basically demand your include list that you've spent YEARS building to "F**k off!" :emoji_expressionless:

    I think the real problem is hit notifier disappeared. We need a real community bonding experience like HN.
