There was a discussion about it earlier, but I think the people that aren't seeing them probably just don't have this Online Purchase qual. However, you also wouldn't see them if you happen to have that Blocked qual.





If you're missing the Online Purchase qual, you can get that by doing the Amazon premium qual HITs, but you won't get the qual right away.

If you have the Blocked qual, then I don't think there's anything you can do.
sorry, is it this one? Profile Information - Online Activity and Social Profile HIT

This is part of why I have roommates. (Aside from the fact that there's no earthly way I could afford rent by myself in this soggy garbage hole.) I mean, it's not fun, but it does seem to be somewhat better for my mental health to be forced to interact with other humans every now and again, even if I don't like it.
It's true, it makes a huge difference. I'm just in a weird situation because I moved out here (Las Vegas) for family about a year and a half ago, but that family ended up moving back to CA like a year later, which kinda just left me stuck out here with nobody that I really know. I'm a very shy person, so I'm not the best at getting out and meeting people, so I just kinda stay at home and chat with people online. It suits me for now, but with the way MTurk has been lately, I'm not exactly doing a very good job at saving money for when I want to leave here.

I'm sorry, I don't know exactly which one it is. I would recommend doing them all if you can, though. The quals that come from those HITs are very good to have.

C-SATS are trying to gross me out today. They've never bothered me before, but it's like meat-kabob type surgery today.

I was under the impression that doing those might prevent me from doing the regular hits. But, I'm guessing it actually helps get more surveys and hits.

I have $15-20 waiting for me on another errand today, so my PE won't be that bad if I actually leave at some point. That $8 HIT saved my bacon.

I still feel like I just woke up, some days it's like that all day.

But I am squeezing in a few numbers HITs so I will be at 19k when they clear. Probably won't get 20k today (though I could if I didn't have to leave, I suspect).

We're in pretty much exactly the same situation, just switch CA for FL and Las Vegas for Seattle. (Plus if I move out of state before I finish school, I lose all my state financial aid so I can't really afford to go any more, which means I'm stuck here until I'm done *at least.*) I totally feel you, it's boring and sad and it sucks.
Also yes, mTruk lately is like if there was a whole chain of garbage barges and they all caught on fire.

Here's hoping you find some better way to make money for when you're able to get somewhere less isolated. *sympathies*
