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.

    Thank you :emoji_grinning:

    If I may continue my rant, how long does it take to learn to answer some of the vague and ambiguous questions I seem to come across so often?

    A made up example would be " Imagine xyz inc. is coming up with a new brand of popcorn, please in the ten boxes below explain your feelings on that"

    I just return, not because I feel I am to good to type for the pay or anything, I just don't understand what they are asking!

    I mean I could use the cash, but how do I answer that?

    Perhaps the latter still applies, sorry for the rant, but it has been irritating me all day :eek:

    How do you feel about popcorn in general? My answers are usually all straight down the middle, because my feelings about popcorn are not that extreme.

    I saw a prolific survey pop up, had to dust off the ol' login for that site as it's been ages since there's been anything good.

    £2 survey for like 10 minutes.

    I smiled. My hands shook a bit as I accepted the task. Then, of course, it's fucking Inquisit.

    I hear you, that's what I do, perhaps today was just an unlucky day, but I must have returned 20 dollars worth of those, unusual as I rarely return, I just wish I understood what they wanted. I'd be happy to do it.
