I don't understand the reasoning for waiting until now to increase the timer
I think it's just that they don't quite get it. I mean they understand the mechanics of the HITS, but they don't understand the real life experience of people DOING them in a way that generates profit. Combine that with the big issue of 'loading' time and the fact that people have emailed them asking for longer timers so they don't 'time out.'

So, given our emails, their lack of real-life knowledge - I guess it's all they know to do (minus changing the budget and letting their admin know that substandard pay is not, you know, a good thing...........)

i really don't enjoy when people use the excuse "i don't have it in my budget to pay fair wages" . maybe don't post the work then? "i'd really like to go out to eat but i cannot afford it. oh, i know. we will go anyway and then skip out on the check!" "oh, we cannot afford to lose profits this year so lets just pay some slave children in india to make these for .50 an hour. shareholders will be showering us with gifts!"
g. t. f. o.

the VDX were a stretch at .03. they were only worth it when they were loading decenty and you could tab 20 or so at once. even then... meh. now, they are just plain ridiculous. especially the long ones. who are you kidding? and then to suggest "this is no excuse to breeze by without doing your best". just... lol. piss off. get real. you are paying slave wages, you should be happy you're getting as good results as you have been getting. sorry not sorry, you are a crappy requester.

good thing i found some other great filler batches recently that pay a lot more for the time. :)

another one bites the dust.
