Cloud workers/chat from home

Essentially paid to flirt/sexy chat, I can't claim to be too knowledgable about these two!

Fivver/upwork/guru

Paid 'to do' sites. You can offer normal services on the latter two, or do odd things like sell a video of you clipping your toenails on Fivver.

Same here and from reading the chat no one else is sure either.

Does top 5 results mean literally the first 5, apart from ads etc?
Or does top 5 mean best 5?

And the geolocation doesn't work and neither does the lat/long.

@purpleghost - lat/long works, I'll PM you. Geolocation doesn't - it's a known bug. 'They' are aware.

From what I understand from the guidelines it is literally the first 5 links that meet the criteria (e.g. not an ad, not a google maps/image search)

@AVL did you find a solution regarding a search not returning any results?

Has anyone else had a load of extreme porn on Ba@@ part 2? Just wondering what you did with it. I just treated it like a normal query but now doubting myself.

@ricecrispiecake there were a couple of things mentioned in the chat

@Suebnm just been covered in the chat

@justtheonethen Thanks will check it now.

Porn should have been eliminated in part1, I had 1 and just copied the links from google so I didn't have to go to the pages.

There is an admin on the chat answering questions

Just seen chat, thanks!

I just read that ppl purposely allowing time to complete the tasks will be thrown off. Anyone else been taking a casual 15 mins per task? If everyone else takes 5 mins it's going to be glaringly obvious .

I had a porn one and gave up that task, couldn't cope with the nature of it !

@toastytea yes I've been letting the timer run down to about 15mins. Maybe I'll let it run down to 10 now, and then tomorrow start working at my normal pace, so it's not too obvious a change.

@rhij86 @toastytea I've been doing the same. I don't think it's too much of a problem, they said it should take 15-20 mins so 🤷🏼‍♀️

@tootyfruitypickle shouldn't see many as they were meant to be filtered out in phase 1

I'm letting the timer run down to about 7 mins remaining. Figure it makes me look quick if everyone else is doing 15 mins and I do it in 13 lol!

I;ve only had one porn!

Still confused about videos. So for eg when you get a list of three across the page, but each of them is a unique webpage, is it ok to include these? And can you include all three or just the first one? I've been including them a lot but other times having a wobble and ignoring them?

When will we find out if we're doing it ok?

I think I understand how appen works now! So I read all the guidelines for this project assidously and this confused me as I thought we had to pick best results (for my first 5 tasks), but now I realise it's in 3 parts. It's a good lesson for future projects, and also not to panic when it looks impenetrable (well I say that, let's hope I get paid!).

Yeah I've been letting it vary so sometimes 4 mins, sometimes 7/8!

when do clickworker pay, I thought it was a Wednesday?

Sorry to steer away from the B* talk but could I ask a quick Neevo question please? I cracked on big time last night with the transcription job and recorded 250 tasks complete then today I've looked at my dashboard and it's only showing 153 tasks against that job. Is this a glitch or have I randomly lost a load of work?

@ruralwanderer at some point the work will be audited and you may drop a few if they were found to be incorrect, but that's a massive drop! I would contact support to find out, I know in the past people on here have had similar issues that have later been resolved.

Well done on getting through so many tasks!

It's been reassuring to read the B* chat here - my first project and I'm like at the vagueness of it.

I have the same question as @tootyfruitypickle - when do we know if we're doing it right? Is there any way to track progress on there? I'm worried I will spend hours only to find out at the end of the month that it's all rubbish/not tracked, etc! It just seems too bloody easy!

Thanks @rhij86, I'll drop them an email and ask :)
