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.

    Is knowingly refusing to pay people for their work in an attempt to, "help people earn more money on the platform."

    But then proceeds to constantly go on twitter to promote why Mturk is garbage and why Shitlific should be used instead.[/div]

    Don't forget that she skews "serious" surveys for academic research by stacking them with members of her own clique, who will likely all agree with her and give her the data she wants.

    Not a CCB survey, per se, but done with his consent since it's his account. The actual person running it is Kristy Milland from TN. You can see her bragging about the results on Twitter, despite said results also coming from her own forum, since she used a custom qualification to ensure that they would get an unjustly large # of the results from her own people.

    3 writing prompts of at least 50 characters each
    The writing prompts YELL AT YOU IN CAPS TO NOT COPY AND PASTE THINGS TO MEET THE CHARACTER MINIMUM if you don't meet it

    Not a thing

    I only did this so I could use the survey to tell the requester off and say that as a worker I'm tired of these studies to help the poor taken advantage of gig worker, that I'm fine and making plenty of money they can go away now[/div]

    Writing
    Reject threats .
    minimum character count
    all for $0
    plus found the "Why are you doing this for 0 cents" at the end to be a final slap in the face

    probably getting a rejection for a $0 hit[/div]
