the captcha's from mturk (not a survey, right?)

I think they are - probably - looking at workers outside the US with more caution. This was because survey/academic requesters were worried about people outside the country responding to their HITS (when they were looking for US workers in their survey). Perhaps this has something to do with it.

At the end of the day, none of us 'know' what is up with mturk (ever). So, we can just speculate with you.

Nonetheless, it is good to let us know what is happening. You aren't alone. The more information we have, the more we can piece together things. Metallica @Metallica has been in touch with someone at mturk about suspensions (and warnings). So, let's flag this for him to look at, okay?

Wasn't his account suspended shortly thereafter though? I'm curious as to what sends up these red flags for mturk considering all of the scripts in use these days.

Note: Starting February 10th 2019, MTurk is deprecating its “Weekly Worker Activity Report” due to feedback that the report was unhelpful to the majority of Workers. Please note that all of the information the “Weekly Worker Activity Report” contained is available on your Worker dashboard, which you can review here:

after the warning went out? I remember that folks who got a warning, in the past, often (?) seemed to get suspended. But not always. I can remember someone who used to post in the mornings, got the message and then didn't get suspended.

Oh, maybe it was just a warning. It's difficult for me to keep up on weekdays.

You continually amaze me. :evillaugh: I think you should run for President. You could probably do that in your spare time and win. :cheers:
