| 2021-08-12 | Brian Daniel | | I have downloaded and redownloaded the extension and it's missing the blacklist tab. Why? | |
| 2021-07-03 |  | | Major thanks to the maker of this very helpful, free tool. The only major thing it is missing is integration with the new TurkerView reviews. There are now substantially more TV ratings than TO, and I'm afraid the life of Stax is limited if it only sticks to TO ratings. Still, valuable contribution to the MTurk community. | |
| 2021-01-20 |  | | This is an amazing extension that has more than tripled my production on Mturk. All around a great tool full of all the options that are needed to increase earnings on Mturk. I honestly don't know how this is a free tool as it is probably one of the most powerful tools to use on Mturk. Thank you devs for developing this and giving this to us for free. You are awesome! I highly recommend anyone looking to increase their earnings potential on Mturk to give Stax a try. You won't be disappointed. | |
| 2020-07-13 |  | | This app has become too popular and has now ruined the ability to grab any new HIT's. As of me writing this Stax has 877 users. While I enjoyed this app from the start it has now come to the point to where its next to impossible to make my daily goal even when using this tool to its fullest potential. This app creates an unfair competition that gives the person with the lowest ping the highest chances of grabbing the HIT while a person like myself who lives in a rural area gets in last every time. | |
| 2019-12-26 |  | | I've been using it for quite some time without a hitch. I'm sometimes concerned about TOS violation but that hasn't happened as of yet. I don't use it for batches, just single higher-paying hits so maybe that has something to do with it. While it has not proven to be a cash cow, my income from Mechanical Turk has increased about 20% or so. My favorite thing is that I can run it and walk away from the computer because I can't put everything in panda crazy. I wish it had a way to connect to TO or TV to filter out requesters with high rejection rates but I can live with that. Since I don't do that many hits, I usually check the requester reviews before doing one. It has enabled me to catch some pretty high-paying hits, I just hope the acts doesn't fall from a TOS violation. The one downside to using software like this is that if enough people start using it, it will no longer be effective. There is an auto grabber available on Turkerview but it's hard to find that has a cost. I have not heard of any TOS violations with that one. | |
| 2018-11-19 |  | | Works for the most part. Could probably use some overall refinement since it feels a tad messy. Occasionally i'll have my settings and filters reset when I exit my browser which is quite annoying. Don't buy into any of the scare tactics about getting banned for using it. This comes from people who have tried to keep scripts like this confined to small communities for their own benefit. | |
| 2018-09-18 | G D | | I love this app/extention. No issues here from me. I had a question/suggestion. Is there a way to keep a requester from being added to the blacklist? For example, C-SATS post batches all the time and once you catch one it seems like it wont catch another until you remove it manually from the blacklist. Is there a way to EXCLUDE a requester from the black list? | |
| 2018-08-26 | BestMMAVids | | Nice tool! Thanks for creating. The only issue is accepting the same hit multiple times.All the other scripts that are similar to this are paid services and you have to jump through hoops to get them. Look forward to future releases. Also, you should set up a donation link. | |
| 2018-08-25 |  | | Contains code that could be used to violate mTurk ToS at any point. | |
| 2018-08-25 | UK Cats | | If the ToS violation Salem Beats is referring to is completion of captchas, this is fixed in version 0.0.0.2 according to: https://www.reddit.com/r/mturk/comments/9a8d5j/stax_a_second_generation_mturk_automation_tool/ |
