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.

    Not really. It's been sort of over since CloudResearch pulled their CR2 crap, declaring war on "professional Turkers". But Musicbed was good for me, them leaving was sad. I have the VRAPI qual but can't figure out how to make them worth the time it takes.

    Maybe somebody will make a better version for all the requesters that are left and a bunch of new ones that will have people working support that actually know what the product is and will pay well and have lots and lots of batches. :emoji_fingers_crossed:

    that would be the best case scenario. Prolific and cloud research are not really good for batch work etc.

    You are all so spoiled. Back in my day, we'd walk 2 miles to our local batch center up hill both ways, in the snow, before breakfast, just to do a tiny batch of Pinterests or Sergeys - and we didn't complain.

    Disappointed to see, now that I was wanting to actively use mturk again to make money, that it's basically on hospice care :(
