    It was obviously the point of the study, and I would assume that in the information sheet at the beginning it says something along the lines of you are under no obligation to take part if you so wish, as all studies on PA do. You're free to not take part in studies if you aren't happy with the incentive, and you literally could leave the experiment at any time.


    Don't know why I'm bothering because you won't see this anyway...

    And pass up nearly £6? Duh!

    No-one needs a button to ignore you... It's optional.

    Well you must be a goldfish because you bored me with exactly this pointless claptrap a couple of months ago. Maybe you have a short term memory problem; I know you can't seem to remember what we wrote on the previous page of this thread. If the best you can do is regurgitate garbage that was not funny the first time, maybe I should just block you again. Permanently.

    Be careful who you accuse of being a troll on the internet.

    You have taken what was a harmless comment intended with no malice and then become quite abusive for no apparent reason. You are being particularly grouchy and aggressive with other posters at the minute, unfortunately. Maybe consider taking a couple of days away from the boards in order to reset your equilibrium?

    Maybe it has been discussed before, I cannot say that MSE is high on my list of things I need to remember, I also cannot say that MSE is high on my list of things which I am that fussed about.

    I am unsure why you think that being blocked is such a threat, to be honest. You are no more important then anyone else on here. I like talking to the people on here who support each other, but if someone blocks me it has zero impact on my everyday life. Especially when it was clear the original message was not remotely malicious.

    And as for the threat at the bottom, what the hell????

    I think you owe me an apology, frankly. I am sure it is in the T+C's of the forum that being abusive to other board members is not allowed.

    I completed the same the lines one but they said it would only take 7 min. but in reality I spent almost an hour!!:mad: So those efforts were only for 70 p or are they going to pay an hourly £6p/h rate?

    As written in waaaayyyyy too much detail in the instructions, you will get 70p base rate + either 3p or 6p (depending on what condition you were assigned to) per completed line.

    For people completing all 85 lines, that means they are either getting paid £3.25 or £5.80.

    I do like the quicker payouts! I also like these studies that keep popping up where you can work for a bonus too :) handy if you've got time on your hands!

    Most of mine are paying quite quickly, some very quickly but I'm still waiting on £1.50 for a study I did at the end of September. PA is my best survey site.
    Don't mess with pensioners. :cool:

    It's my best too, I cannot stand the amount of screening out on other sites and I do genuinely find the studies they do interesting for the most part
