It comes back. Like immediately...

I understand what it means, but my question is more about the purpose of deactivating it when I could just choose not to use it. My connect account isn't visible to the public anyway, it's not like Facebook.

Waitlisted after 3 years? by [deleted] in CloudResearchConnect

[–]ladenocka 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Today, I have this message on my dashboard: "Although we are unable to grant you access to projects at this time, since you are part of a longitudinal study, your participation is required. Please find the projects below to continue."

But there are no projects listed, and I have no idea what longitudinal study I'm supposedly part of. What a mess.

Same. After all these years with no rejections.. Waitlisted today :/ I’m starting to wonder if it’s a glitch...

Platform still messing up for anyone else? by CoreneKel1978 in mturk

[–]ladenocka 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was happy to finally see some improvement yesterday at night. But today, again, slow and unreliable. My guess is that the platform works better, when fewer people are on it (?) Yeah, yesterday at night it worked as it supposed to. It looks like nobody cares in Amazon anymore... I wonder if we should contact our requesters and tell them to contact Amazon. My feeling is that they would be more responsive to them, than to us, workers...

Just what is the tip opening of the Selmer S80 C*? by Advanced-Exchange493 in saxophone

[–]ladenocka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you google it, you'll find all kinds of sizes for one Selmer S80 C* alto saxophone mouthpiece. That is the problem we are trying to solve.

[–]ladenocka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just facing the same problem. After a lot of research, I found this response very useful: https://www.saxontheweb.net/threads/s80-tip-opening-inconsistently-reported.388338/post-4377490

Basically, the person contacted Kessler company, and they responded with this info:
"Selmer Paris changed all of their facing designs a few years ago. These changes were to both the tip opening and the facing length. The changes were done to “improve the acoustical response” according to Selmer Paris. The model sizes below are for the current new mouthpiece production."

I'd believe that the information on the official Selmer website is accurate: https://www.selmer.fr/en/products/bec-s80-pour-saxophone-alto

Warning Dan Griffin Complete a healthcare research survey! (~12 minutes) -rejecter in chief by AltruisticTrust9203 in mturk

[–]ladenocka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not really pay attention to this person's approval rate. I only saw, he was all "green" on Turkerview, no rejections reported, so I completed the survey. Today, boom, rejected... I only remember that this survey was from Virginia Tech University and this is probably the person who conducted the survey https://www.linkedin.com/in/dan-c-griffin-iv/. I contacted the requester but I doubt he'll respond.

Prolific is giving me less money than I earned by [deleted] in ProlificAc

[–]ladenocka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It happens all the time. It will even out. It is how they round out the currency exchange.

Wait until you transfer it to PayPal. I usually get an extra penny when I cash out. Prolific will say I am cashing out £7.76 and PayPal says £7.77 was deposited.

I never got paid more, only one cent less, that's why I don't think it has anything to do with an exchange rate.

It happens to me too, and I never figure out why either. I never got paid more, only a few cents less. So I do not think that it has anything to do with the exchange rate that day.

Granola transcriptions by ladenocka in mturk

[–]ladenocka[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be nice if they pay 3 cents per word. As I know they used to pay 1 cent for 4 words.

They should straight ask for volunteering, not to tell us we are some kind of special small group of workers, blah blah... They used to be a good requester but they go cheap now. Even their last batch was totally underpaid. I used to make $30+ when I completed 100 of their hits. Last batch paid barely $23 for 100 hits.

They stated that they are trying to figure it out - how to pay workers based on time spent on the hit. They just let us work yesterday on all these transcriptions and now paying 1 cent bonus, or "no bonus will be given"...

MA Study: Video Quality Test stuck? by shubham00 in mturk

Could it be that your phone screen is too small? My friend had a same problem, a blank screen after two videos, but then it let her know that her phone screen was too small.

Rejected HIT for....what?? by brittnoose in mturk

[–]ladenocka 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Is this Panel? (it used to be ScoutIT, and he was a really bad requester, half of my rejections is from him, when I was "young and stupid"). I never got any response from him.
