he hasn't been around with his shenanigans in a while

 

[C to the J]

@Pleco came back to Mturk to make money for Red Dead Remption 2 and then left again.

Real question, is there a reason why the forum traffic isn't what it used to be? Have people moved on? Are less people turking in general?

yeah, all those. There is A LOT of activity in discord since the downtimes though. @Despairagus rallied a bunch of us that we need to come over here too. I haven't been working as much the past two weeks either. Discord is easier to check on the fly when I'm not at a computer.

I feel like half the fun of turking is posting stupid shit. If all I did was stare at hitfinder all day my brain might melt.

 

[Merovign]

I'm still waiting on a bonus from 3 weeks ago.
Won't respond to emails.

They went from being really responsive and helpful to flat out screwing people.
I wouldn't work for them right now until they sort their shit out.

I got an e-mail (late last week)from them that indicated they intended to pay bonuses to the people who got burned by not getting bonuses (my message to them was about the janky ad creation hits). I did eventually get my bonuses for the ones that completed "normally" but it's all very slow and they haven't done anything about the broken ones yet.

We were doing okay, but a lot of people moved to Slack/Discord during that last downtime that we had and they've just continued to hang out there. So they're still around, just not posting here as much anymore.

also the past three weeks has been survivor. So we are here but alllll our free time doing insane tasks. LOL. Yesterday my tribe took something like 350 pictures of objects.

 

[Sondi]

I do much more work on the actual forum vs. Discord .. still I only made $400 this month I've just been avoiding everything

also true. I have done terrible money this month but my quals and timing hasn't been useful. I spent 90 minutes staring at hitfinder and messing with turkernator to make like $2.00 last night sigh. Not my month.

That's like the story of my entire day. Play RDR2 till I catch something, come turk. Go back to being a cowboy. Rinse repeat.

I did then I just kept hanging out there like a jerk.

Mostly Survivor plus my desire to play videogames a lot is keeping me off the forum lately. I'mma make more of an effort to be here, though. I swear. Once I go collect on some debts and bust my buddy out of jail a few towns over. Also my horse needs a bath.

Yesterday was insane with survivor. Spent most of my day running around my house taking pictures and 1-2 hours to upload and organize all my pictures. Then had to clean up all the mess I made in the house digging for things.
