    The sad thing is that it now seems that every couple of weeks there is something going on with the platform; In the past couple of months, we have seen everything from latency issues, then the site just not working, and bogus suspension waves.

    Not having any issues over here. Me and @Yax Jasbon are the chosen ones. The rest of you are just simply not worthy of the privilege of doing sub-minimum-wage work for Amazon. You've been eliminated, pack your shit and go home.

    After reading the quote, all I could hear in my mind was "For the Colonyyyyy" for context, been having a rough patch since mid 2025, and have not been able to enjoy my usual reads, so I went with something lighter and easier to follow, and stumbled upon Chrysalis: The Antventure Begins. The MC is reincarnated into a magical ant and his name is ANThony. :emoji_joy::emoji_joy::emoji_joy:

    Turkopticon posted on X 4hrs ago and tagged to AWSSupport as follows: Mturk workers, suspensions of accounts working on Vacation rentals are being reported. We've reached out to our Amazon contact and urge you to email mturk-account-appeals@amazon.com and fill out our suspension form: https://blog.turkopticon.net/?page_id=653.

    Is everyone suspended indeed working on Vacation rentals?

    ah crap. I've been grinding them this year because that's the only thing I qualify for, other than pickfu. Really sucks though because I am still waiting payment on a few. I REALLLLY hope they pay me on time ughhh. I wonder why the targeted suspension, is VRAPI leaving the platform?
