I appreciate the offer, and you're welcome to if you like. But it's okay if you don't. This whole experience has been incredibly emotionally draining for me and I seriously considering just throwing in the towel at this point, so I can start to move on and plan my next step.

It would be one thing if I were actually getting responses, boilerplate or not, but I've been getting nothing. It's like I wake up every morning and spend an hour writing out these long heartfelt messages, pleading with them while I'm fighting back tears, only to have them just seemingly get lost in a void somewhere. It's discouraging and it's upsetting. I can't do it anymore.
I'm going to do some research on this. It's not my area of law but heck I am sure I can figure it out, maybe I can help out with it.

aveline @aveline You know how mturk is. Just when you're ready to throw in the towel, they'll say, you're all set. Or more likely, they'll not say anything, but you'll figure out on your own that you're all set. Don't give up!

Does any one got the link to the script that auto-refeshes a HIT that keeps kicking out after doing 1-2?

ew, returning it - still at 100%
If you haven't then they could make a compensation HIT.
I would email and ask what their plan is so you can get paid for your time.

You're right. It's why I'm still on the fence. But if I don't hear anything by the end of the week, I just don't know.

Thanks for the suggestion! Luckily, I had not started it yet. I just sent them an email asking if they really meant for people to keep them for 3 weeks and explaining that that was ridiculous.

There have been several people (on other forums) over the last several years who had their accounts suspended or had Masters taken away, and they eventually got through to someone who finally fixed their accounts. If I recall, these people just relentlessly sent emails and made phone calls, etc. I'm not sure what magic words they used to get to the right person, but, hopefully, you'll be able to finally get to that person, too.
