Clixsense 2014 Second Thread

Welcome to the thread enliven! Some great advice from night ryder there.
I am relatively new myself and fit a little bit of clicking around my real work hours.

I don't have much luck with surveys either but I do ok with the tasks. Some have me bamboozled but others are relatively easy, its just a case of trying and see which you get on with.
Good luck

Well usual thing for me tonight. I click on investments tasks and it tells me no work available. Have had an email back saying I didnt give them enough info to help them sort my problem so just sent another with more detail.

I want my investment tasks back

Sometimes CF confuse me, was just doing the tax task, got 1 wrong, which is fine because I still passed, but then it said sorry you don't have the qualification to do this task, but still credited, why let me do it if im not qualified? how do you qualify? im so confused!

Am I doing something wrong or has the wrath of crowdflower decided to turn on me next?

Plenty of investment tasks showing but when I click on them it says no more work and they have all disappeared?

So sorry to hear this I get this on LOTS of tasks...

The investment ones seem to be stuck jobs that come every single day and the numbers never really go down!

Am thinking of going Premium already...is there a lot of difference?

rather than 5% you get 12% on your checklist bonus so it does add up.

for example if you make ten dollars in one day not unusual if you can task and do surveys without premium you'd get 50c with it you'd get 120c multiply that by 30 and within a month its payed for itself.

This is only an example ten dollars is a lot and i've only started making that after afew months but its achievable. take afew days consider it if you think you'll be on clixsense daily then i would.

Theres other benefits you get access to 2c PTC ads i never got any when i was a basic member but now i get quite afew. Other people have said they do get 2c ads without being a member though. Also the time spent on the grid is less cut from 10s to 5s again not a huge benefit.

I wouldn't go back to being a basic member but thats because i can spend enough time online to make it pay others might not be able to so it wouldn't be worth their while.

Has anyone else noticed a drop in their accuracy? Mine was 89% a couple of weeks ago, but I've just checked it and somehow its 82% now :huh:

Granted, there have been quite a few useless tasks where I've been expelled because of CF mistakes and errors in the system, but I really can't see how it could have dropped so dramatically. Might be worth contacting CF I guess.

My accuracy dropped 1% without me being aware of having completed any of the official Crowdflower jobs, I think they must now be putting test questions in all of the jobs.

I found on some tasks you can now go down to 80% with one wrong answer. I think this is counterproductive because I can sometimes learn more from getting one answer wrong than I can from reading the often garbled and confusing instructions.

I am now playing it safe which means not only will I stop doing a task earlier than before if my accuracy falls but are far more hesitant to attempt any new task.

Everything older_wiser said!


The main reason for me was the checklist bonus increase. I didn't use 'my' money though - waited until I'd got to a balance of $17 and then upgraded rather than cashing out.
