1. The forum & main site will stay up indefinitely after MTurk shuts down in case anyone needs anything. I assume a handful of things will break after MTurk vaporizes & I'll fix it as fast as I can to keep the two main parts of the site online.

    I stated myself that VRAPI requires a careful selection of listings: "Same for a survey. Some surveys may pay at a rate of $50/hr but a worker won't make $50/hr doing surveys. But some of the batches/counties work out to a decent hourly rate -- $30/$40 an hour. Today's batches aren't great but even being distracted today I've still made $62 (in 2 hours of logged time) working mostly on the $2 listings.

    Definitely, if a worker learns the ropes (and if they keep posting new batches daily, as they have been), they can count on making at least $100 a day.

    I worked only 3 days last week but made over $400."

    Actually, in my first comment I addressed the cherry picking aspect: "For example, 40-60% of the listings are not identifiable -- so unless you learn which ones to select, you will be wasting lots of time -- earning $0!"

    (Ok, I'm done. I will be quiet now.)

    I wouldn't call it "terrible". When I look at it though, all I can see are the jagged eyes and the uneven nostrils. But thanks! :emoji_hugging:

    I thought that was a real saying but apparently I'm wrong

    But I did learn that Pinterest deserves a refund for w/e they spent on MTurk

    VRAPI is not actually a "batch", IMO. But the times reported do give an accurate representation of the pay of individual listings.
