I have stumbled across this forum though a hit and I'm quite glad I did. Hello all =)! Is this site directly related to Mturk or is it user created?
Welcome Zettler! This forum is consider user-created since I am not affiliated with mTurk. Actually, I just discovered the site a few days ago. I own a large online community for teens and saw potential in this development niche - and also I am genuinely interested in mturk so I decided to buy an additional vBulletin license and create the boards. Feel free to stick around
I hear the people of amazon leave Mturk solo and that any complaints go straight to the requester and bypass any admins and the such. I hope that someone from amazon at least reads these forums =) Thanks for the welcome
Yes, there is not any message moderation at all (unless it is reported). Amazon may utilize these boards in the future, and I encourage them to, but they probably don't as of you because the site is new.
turks isnt new is it? Or do you mean these forums are. by the way do you know of any plans on any new payment options?
mTurk has been around since 05 I think. I created these forums about four days ago. I have no idea on new payment options - however I do not think they will come soon because 1) Amazon makes money on transaction fees using Amazon's payment system. 2) Paypal and other payment systems are competitors to Amazon's payment system. 3) It is easy to track/detect fraud keeping payment system in-house.
I only wish I could cashout to Amazon.CA because I am canadian and the shipping from .com is RIDICULOUSLY expensive to canada. 19.99 for most video games? I want to buy a guitar off .com and I may have it shipped to a friend in the states then shipped by Fedex (dad works there its cheap) to me to save money
