i don't think the MTS contact requester button is working. whenever i send a message through that, i get

Strange... something is not right

The provided website address is not valid. Below are all HITs available.
Its expected. That happens because you need a group id to send a message to a requester with this method, so I have a fake one in there. When you send a message normally, it will redirect you back to hit group that you contacted the requester from. Since it is a fake group id, it fails and errors like you see, but that all happens after the message was successfully sent.

this link doesnt work
Even if you can get the link to work, the survey is borked and won't let you get passed some screens.
I finally got it to work with a different browser, each page loaded slower than ever though. Finally made it to about 70-80% if I had to guess, and got the same error I was initially getting when trying to get the survey link to work. No way to recoup progress, couldn't even seem to start over again. Returned, messaged requester. Bummer...I should've just ditched it sooner!

not to sound preachy, but this is why a budget is soooo important. Nail in a tire/flat tire is a known expense. set up an emergency fund, always have some money stashed away and don't touch unless it's a true emergency
I actually have a budget, normally I have "overflow" money in case something like this happens but I just got a new job so I'm in that awkward first paycheck thing, my last paycheck from my last job was the 15th, then I got an advance on the 26th from my current boss to cover rent and stuff and my first real paycheck isnt till the 16th of Feb.
I 100% believe in a budget. Im just in a weird spot at the moment.

Do it over a month long period ... tagging him with each line :ROFL:

That is even worse than what I already did to him. I like it.

Unrelated: This forum should have a limit on PM messages. Terrible possibilities for harassment.

I'll add that to the wiki page for contact requester since it would be a good idea to let people know about it.

they don't count tenths of percents so greater than 99% in mturk speak is just 100%
Thanks, I guessed that. when I saw it.
I saw he'd changed the qual to 98% but it had gone before I could catch . Ah well...
