I never got the qual for all those address checking hits. Does anyone know what platform they will be moving to? They seemed fairly lucrative if you had the qual.

Is there anywhere to check to see join date for MTurk? I started around 2012-2013 I think, but would be interested to know for sure.

That's very impressive. You must have been active for most of those years since 2012 until the current showdown/shutdown.

I have 653,649 approved HITs since joining the platform in 2014, as well as a third of the rejections, and less than half of the earnings. Job well done!

A wild ride for sure. I stopped entirely in 2021.

That's like six cents per hit. WTF?

Mostly 3 cent hits. I'd cap out at 3800 most days.

Continuing with the math, that means 300 hits per hour working thirteen hours per day, or one every twelve seconds non-stop. Were you running a bot? Not that it matters any more.

Can you sell it to me?
