They're alright when there's just one and they load, but almost every image isn't loading
You're better than these. Or maybe you're not, I guess that's up to you.

I don't think they're bad money makers with scripts but thanks for the vote of confidence!

This issue that everyone is complaining about is not the fact that the images aren't loading... It's that just a few days ago this very same HIT would require comparing only one pair of images for a penny, and now they require comparing 3 pairs of images for the same shiny penny... So with the script, they actually were decent pay. Now, they are 1/3 of decent pay.

If you're willing to do more work for the same (or less) money, then you're sending a message to the requester that this sort of thing is okay.

Many requesters have lowered their wages, only to have nobody do their HITs, and then they're basically forced to raise their wages back up to attract workers. Many requesters have lowered their wages, nobody did their HITs, so the requesters took a hike and left MTurk. Workers don't have a lot of recourse against unfair wages on MTurk other than refusing to do underpaid HITs

If you need the money, you need the money, so you do whatever it takes... but most of us, after Turking for awhile, realize it's best to focus our efforts on looking out for, and doing, work that has a decent hourly return, and with experience the definition of "decent" does tend to be a bit higher.
Yes I referred to that earlier. And agree it's not right, but for me, the images are NOT loading irregardless of the number of them...and I have been turking for awhile too.
