    Accepted on the platform.
    They email everytime, there's an error, and then you have to respond to tell them what you think you did wrong, and get clarification on their guidelines (which are apparently an ever-changing being).

    I think I'll just write this off as a lesson learned. When the TV reviews are ALL bad, working with them will eventually be bad for me one way or another.

    Sorry you lost your qual.
    I don't do most of the types they have very often. And when I get the you did it wrong email I usually take a break for awhile. I have often wished they would make a forum or something so when someone has a question you can see their response and learn what they want rather than just the few examples in the instructions. Also, a few months back I got several you did it wrong emails where my response was the same as the correct response so I think that's the only time I've communicated back, They said they would look into it but never got back and told me if they fixed the issue or if those were going to count against me. They don't come across particularly friendly over email so I don't go out of my way to communicate and ask questions. I just try to avoid working on anything I'm not sure about.

    Yep, she will make biscuits. She has a throw version of the same blanket and she knows it's hers, so she makes biscuits on it as well and will paw at it for me to lift it for her to sleep under it when I'm in bed.

    Edit: Adding in a couple of pics of her tucked in (one's somewhat lower quality)

    Hope everyone is making a ton of $$$ today!

    If anyone missed it yesterday, due to the reception the idea got last week, I made a Discord server that you can access here. Not meant to take away from the forum at all, just provide a more mobile-friendly, more casual, and less permanent and search indexible place to chat if anyone is interested.

    Prolific

    I only did a handful of underpaid studies on Prolific so far today, but none of them have auto-coded or redirected back to Prolific, and auto-filled the completion code. I've had to click complete study and copy/paste every code today. I usually only do that a few times a day at most. Has anyone else had a similar experience today?

    Hmm...interesting. Maybe its just these short low paying studies that I've been doing today. I just had it happen again. lol I've noticed that some of them are auto-approving after I submit them, though. I haven't had a decent paying study yet, except for a broken one that I had to return. I was just curious if others were experiencing the same thing or not.

    Nah, it's not a big deal. I was just curious and bored, and came out of the shadows for a moment. ;)

    My thought process is if there's an issue with a survey code, everyone is having that same issue. I might send a message if I'm worried, but people make mistakes all the time. We do this every day; requesters don't.
