    Prohibited uses include:
    "...requesting HITs through venues other than the MTurk website
    unless permitted via MTurk templates or applications ..."

    OK, so how is it okey-dokey for a requester to invite us to do a hit on, say,
    a Russian server that's apparently not affiliated with mturk?

    By this logic, every survey hosted using Qualtrics is breaking the ToS. As well as other hits that email you followups to avoid paying mturk fees.

    Nothing would bring me more joy than seeing their account banned other than perhaps VRAPI's account being banned.

    Go get them tiger.

    Sunday was very slow, Monday seemed typical, yesterday and today were both much slower for me than usual.

    Stanford HCI is probably one of the worst things for mturk University-wise.
