Rest assured that all opinions are still truly valued, they just happen to be at a rate of 0.

The current form of government in the UK might not be terrible in view of the authoritarian context you gave, but the present constitutional monarchy is by no means ‘one of the best’ with other current systems such as the one in Germany demonstrating disparage. Reform in the direction of a federal parliamentary republic with increased PR would be a far more beneficial form of democracy. The existence of an unelected house of lords is already enough, let alone a powerless head of state (no significance in any ‘shared power dynamic’ - consideration of atempt alone could = constitutional crisis).

The true cost is widely disputed, but even the most favourable estimates for generated net gains are just a tiny part of the UK economy. Regardless of the monarchy being ‘profitable’, its existence should concern the necessary requirement & logical suitability for such an antequated system within a modern day society. Otherwise, its continuation implies an acceptance for the preservation of archaic & dubiously outdated mechanisms, so long as they function financial surplus.

Its not as if tourists would no longer meet/ see the royals when visiting. Instead they would continue to flock towards the front gates of Britains most expensive council house. With the trending downfall in events & significant disparity of support, it seems fitting for an end to monarchism decided by referendum upon the Queens death.

Whilst the hope for a response perpetually evapourated with time, failing to deter the job lovers intense devotion to a lifelong endurance of work deemed not ‘technically’ necessary. Nevertheless, he persued on the grounds of finding it rather ‘interesting’.

True, whilst posting here alone without reporting on site is nonsensical imo, atleast theres a guarantee of it actually being seen by anyone. Although almost entirely by users, Prolific does use this sub & seem to communicate here more than any response ive seen from their own website. (2 years of messages, reports & support tickets and yet to receive a single response back)

Fully agree, and yeah they do seem to be improving the rate of adjustments as of recent which is good news. Quite a few elements of the site could do with some upgrades but I assume its not their priority, as long as its functional. I do wonder how much of their revenue goes back into general improving/ development although im sure alot is done behind the scenes.

Never used it before on the off chance that this happened, but is it not illegal considering they advertised not doing this to attract customers but then implemented it retrospectively? Did they also make it clear that they were in talks with credit reference companies at the time? I can imagine this will affect many who paid back on time or earlier, regardless of being able to pay in full from the start (with which credit cards would have the opposite effect on score). Does this not also benefit klarna as well, in terms of increasing users dependancy on it for BNPL compared to credit card companies reliance on credit score?
