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.

    that's not accurate at all. it's roughly $50/hr if you've tried them. and the rejection rate is from people not reading. not my problem. also, i already knew all this and its not what i asked.

    If you decide to do them... I'd err on the side of caution and just do 5 period. 59% means they don't give a damn whose approval rating they ruin.

    I shouldn't work on prolific while its 96 in my house, I don't have the tolerance for dumb shit and impulse control needed.

    Oooof. Had my AC out in summer of 2023 for like 60+ days where it would get up to the mid 90's in here. Couldn't even really cook without it being torture. That was the period I had to stop working from home and try out Uber/Doordash. Hopefully you can get that recitified! If you have access to ice, a bucket, and a fan could always make one of those small bucket AC :emoji_grin:

    Wishing I had 25 female friends in Germany who do not follow any diet and who all want a Prоlіfіc referral right now.

    I mean Prоlіfіc sends you an email, subject line:

    Earn £62.50 to invite a friend

    Read that again — "a friend."
    Then they say: to get that payout amount (£62.50) you must refer 25 friends. Not "a friend," 25.

    However, "to keep study opportunities fair for all participants, we have specific criteria."
    In my case, all the 25 friends have to be female residents of Germany, who do not follow any diet.
    I'm in California and none of my female friends are in Germany. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I was just going to post this. I'm surprised and disappointed in Prolific. Not just because this sounds so ridiculous and scammy, it's incredibly rude to all the people already on the platform.

    having to find 25 of them for that relatively measly payout is crazy and kind of insulting. plus, its so specific i imagine ZERO people would qualify. i also dont like that big ugly red button it clashes with the dark mode.
