Pros
This was actually a comp HIT for me reporting an issue with Captchas. I was simply wishing to get a chance to re-do the HIT since I couldn't complete it, but instead, this requester was generous enough to put up a five dollar comp hit...and needless to say that is way above what the original HIT paid, and for much less effort to complete it.Their response email when I reported the Captcha issue was also within minutes instead of hours like I'm used to seeing.
Cons
None. I did bump the actual time it took to complete this up, since I had to have some way of including the time it took me to research the Captcha issue and report it, but even after factoring that in the compensation HIT amount is extremely generous.Advice to Requester
Keep up the excellent communication and the being generous to Turkers who report issues. It's Requesters like you that keep the platform going!MEC Relaxed Pace

Pros
Cons
While the hourly might not be the worst, the amount of reading comprehension, attention, and bot checks makes this more tiring than it's worth. After the initial bot checks, the first task is to read an article and then summarize it in 2-3 sentences. The next section includes additional information that requires careful attention, along with more questions in bubble format. Finally, either before the demographics or just after, there's another bot check. This should pay more if all this is entailed.knottypiper Relaxed Pace

Pros
Interesting topic.Cons
Now my brain is preoccupied by the concept of our linear perception of time and how it is a construct invented by the mind and all things that were and are and will be are instantaneous and the mind boggles at the idea that we do not experience it as such... and this review has now taken longer than the task -- but has it really?
