Is insane to have to categorize baby clothes only based on an example of a toy box. Examples are needed because using our "best judgement" (as said on tasks) get us expelled and frustrated. Thank you.

I've even had the correct answers and still come up 100% incorrect. That's incredibly frustrating and a total waste of my time.

My biggest problem with CF have always been the faceless&soulless responses i got(tho to be fair answering 10k tickets every month probably does that to you),so having you here happy to engage in a conversation is great!
Quote:To clarify, I will not be responding to customer support type requests
I've got two questions,i don't think they are customer support related,more like general policy related so i'll take my chances =)
1-Why does automated flags exist?
I've been flagged two times both times by the same task(on different id's) and both times automated flags,the second time i got flagged i was told CF would contact the task author regarding their use of automated flags but as you can see from this thread this(and many other task authors) are continuing to issue these type of flags;
Major flag without any reason | ClixSense Forum
So why do they exist?Who benefits from these flags?
Back in November(i'm sure you remember) thousands of people got flagged by the 'find c level admin' and 'evaluate local merchant' tasks,it took about a month to get back our badges and lots of people(me included) had accuracy over %85 on these tasks.
After getting flagged the second time i've stopped working on new tasks that i don't recognize coz i'm worried about losing my badges due to automated flags,nowadays i only do tasks that i know won't issue these types of flags and/or check the boards before attempting newer tasks to see whether any problems exist.
And does task authors have any drawbacks for issuing these types of flags?
2-What is the policy regarding browser refreshers?
I've opened a ticket about this but the answer i got was so absurdly off topic i didn't push it further.
I've seen people flat out admit that they are using refreshers on their browser to get more tasks,i don't think that's fair,i've never used them and never will but lots of people are using it and when it comes to Clixsense weekly contest i think use of these kind of extensions give an edge to the people that use them.
Should i use 'report violation' link the next time i see people admit that they are using these kind of extensions?

I remember this,100x bonus was given to the people that got their answers validated.
Hopefully we'll get to show more of our 'Google-FU' in the future =)
Anyway thanks for being here and hopefully you'll take the time to answer and clarify some things for us,take care.

It's nice having you here.
I remember your "Find some Guess Jeans!" job: I completed it but I couldn't find accurate results, so I didn't get the awesome bonus you offered. I'll have better luck next time
I think that unfair corrections are a big flaw for CF, they're quite annoying.
If solving this problem isn't possibile, maybe CF could work on improving some features, so that unfair corrections are less frustrating?
Some examples:
- If you're unfairly expelled from a task you won't get reward; it would be cool to be paid automatically, if our answers turn out to be right and our accuracy is adjusted.
- I'd like to be able to attach more than one screenshot on tickets; I know that we could attach more later, but submitting all informations at once would be more efficient.
- I think that upvotes could be improved, somehow; we should be able to put links, screenshots and such (describing everything is not clear enough).
That's all for now, I'll probably write more suggestions in the future

Then I lost my level 1 due to the new updates. On my CF I got a message that I have a lot of admin flags. It was not fair I guess because I completed those tasks before the new updates. I worked hard to earn those badges and it is just so sad that I lost it in a glance, This is really frustrating.

To be honest, I don't want to waste my time in sending tickets to unsupportive support team. You spend so much amount of money in creating tasks, but there are no employees to help us quickly.. You have to get more human employees to make it fast track. Is there only Michael in support team?? If so, my suggestion is to spend some money in recruiting some employees to get our tickets answered in 24 hours. Here at we get a very fast reply from the support.. I am really impressed with .
I hope that if you really are from CF and really want to bring change to make CF better; you'll recommend this to CF for this Year.. Take it as a request from a Contributor..

I totally agree with you Mclloyd.. If the tasks were created properly and carefully with fairness, then who would send hundreds of tickets? Most members just neglect and won't bother to send tickets.. Otherwise the number would be in thousands not hundreds You have to get to the root of the problem, if it has to be solved...
