    Worked ok for me thisone, but the article did take quite a while to load after clicking next. It loaded above the button asking if you had read the article.
    ....oh darn!

    Yes, I've just done it and that button you mentioned did appear but only for a few seconds. I waited because I was ready for it thanks to your warning, thisone. I think you should be paid; hope the researcher agrees.

    Good on yer, mate.

    I tried to take this study. It asked if I was ready to read the article, I clicked next and got taken to a page that asked if I had read the article. I returned the study and sent a message to the researcher.

    Ps. I've been doing Prolific surveys since August 2016, though not many, about £200 worth, I thought everybody else had been doing it much longer!

    Do you have an ad blocker? That may have blocked the article (an image) from loading.

    Does anyone have the completion code for this survey? I finished it but the final page wouldn't load so it's showing as a NOCODE.

    A question to people who are getting studies, how long have you been a member?

    I've been a member since 2016 and had no studies for over a week so I guess they might be giving the studies to new members.

    2016. I didnt have anything during the day, but have had two tonight. I wouldnt bank on getting many, if any, over the Easter period also.

    There is no logic to them prioritising newer members over longer serving members who have accounts in good standing. Why would they take that risk? However, the pool of people meeting survey criteria is probably bigger then it was when we joined.

    Yes am using Chrome. I think I've got it back up and running now although the 503 errors are making it ping like crazy. Listener to 120?!?! I don't geddit :D

    It's all confuzzling to be honest.

    The extension, it basically listens to where you would find a study and pings you an alert. Been bloody rubbish for ages, mind. I even had an email (about the survey below in fact) and it still didnt alert!

    Mine worked fine here, it was quite a savage article to read though IIRC. Why on earth would you return the survey...Id always plough on and hope for the best. :eek::rotfl:

    Since 2016 I have made £694 from Prolific, but I am a long way from the most, err, prolific....

    Something is seriously up with MSE atm. I have just pasted this code three times and it keeps changing it to lower case; !!!!!!? It is N9W5GQVG.

    Ah - I didn't realise it listened I thought it looked :D

    I thought it was sorted but am now getting ineligible studies on the home page - checked and am deffo logged in. Seems there are many bugs atm. Hope it's fixed soon, I think May and June were particularly prolific months last year so it will be interesting to see what happens in the next couple of months. :)
