There are many reasons and this is only one....well part of one.
Many have left for TH in general. Not just for a secret script.

Many also left to have secret chat groups on various platforms.
Where you could discuss good batches without them being wrecked/scammed.

Many haven't really needed Mturk that much for a good part of this year because there is a secret platform also.

And of course there is always a high turnover in this community (people leaving for "real" jobs and such).

MTC is dying for many reasons. Not just one.
I think one of the things that keeps us going is the community.

We sort of know each other and - fwiw
care about each other.

there are so many secrets being exposed today, it’s kinda blowing my mind.

P.S. If someone would like to invite into one of these “secret chats” I can definitely contribute some of my “secret batches”

i haven't posted much because my IRL job has taken the bulk of my time even when i should be doing AMT work. It's been a messy year.

Greetings from Amazon Mechanical Turk,

The following is a summary of activity for your Mechanical Turk account for the week ending Aug 18, 2018.

Your HIT activity for this week:
- Number of HITs submitted: 73

Approvals and payments that occurred this week:
- Number of HITs approved: 90
- Number of HITs rejected: 0
- Bonus reward earned: $3.50
- HIT reward earned: $48.38
- Total Amount earned this week: $51.88


I didn't start working until Thursday this week. I stumbled across this forum and ended up having two of my best days in a row.

I just started using HIT Catcher in MTurk Suite and I'm still a little confused with it. Does it slow down with the amount of HIT's you put into it? At one point I had like 60 in there and it was dragging. Any other recommendations to improve would be greatly appreciated! I'm trying to get to $20 a day average.

I'm supposed to be doing my "real" job right now but I'm shitposting instead.

First, congratulations! Second, yeah, running that many pandas is definitely going to slow you down. Here's a recent post by Tandem In Time @Sciency McScienceface which explains the situation of PREs (page request errors) and how to avoid them pretty well.

Haven't you noticed a lot of regulars from this forum don't post anymore? Maybe they all jumped ship and got the *secret script* :thinking:
I've noticed there are a few people that used to post all the time that I don't see anymore.
