$2.50 / hour

Pros
ZERO!Cons
I honestly can't believe I did this. What an INSULTING LOW pay!! Only did it due to a slower day and didn't realize it would be this long of a HIT. There are two potential follow up HITs. Not sure if I want to waste my energy on them. There was so many bubbles before starting, so many steps and waiting for stuff to download, full screen, ACs, very gory/gruesome images. The activity repeated itself just when I thought it was over. This just felt like a COMPLETE waste of time! Even if you achieve the $1 bonus for this HIT and do both of the follow up HITs...you're only maxing out pay at $3-$6ish/hr. I don't know of anyone wanting to work for those wages!!Advice to Requester
Please pay better, even with the potential bonus of $1 each time and the follow up HITs maxing at $5, that's a max of like $6/hr. I got paid $2.50/hr for this and if I earn the $1 bonus, that only makes it $3.50. C'mon, how is that fair??

Cooperation Task Session_01 - $3.00 +1.00 bonus Confirmed!

Pros
Cons
Where do I begin? I knew going into this, from reading the reviews, that this would be seriously awful. It was worse than expected and I've done my fair share of awful surveys/tasks in my ten years of turking. The pay is atrocious and insulting for the content we are exposed to in this.As it was said earlier, the fact that the instructions are in an audio format is a joke and completely unnecessary. It makes the task take that much longer. A simple block of text to explain this would have been sufficient. Also, you think you are done, and a second block downloads. I nearly screamed.
If this platform was not so dead half the time I would have returned this in a heartbeat. Not worth your time
Advice to Requester
Respect your workers and pay a better wage. You can't show content like this and pay slave wages. Respect the mental health of those that do your studies!

$4.11 / hour

Pros
No graphic images as other reviews suggested.It's done.
Cons
Not worth the time. Lousy pay even if you do well. Would have passed on this one had I known. Ridiculous really.Contacted requester because bonus has not shown up over 2 weeks later. He did contact me right away and said "Technically, you were excluded from doing session 2 since you got less than 65% Correct in session 1.
I have given you the bonus regardless."
Glad I was given the bonus anyway. Never did it say I wasn't to do session 2.
