Getting sick and tired of "failed authenticity check" rejections

This is some sort of fucking bullshit anti ai or anti bot feature that Prolific has implemented. I have over 15000 approved submissions so obviously im not a goddamn bot. But now my entire approval rating is going down the shitter thanks to this crap. Researchers dont even bother to ask to return or explain. Instant rejection. Thanks Prolific for another amazing "improvement" to the platform that screws honest participants over.

Edit. Forgot this is reddit with a toxic community that downvotes everything. Nevermind.

Thinking about yellow tinted lenses for my headaches, does it actually work?

Before I spend good money on this I would like to hear some opinions. I tried non-prescription yellow tinted glasses at the optometrist and I liked that everything had a "calmer look". The optometrist has bright lights everywhere which always gives me headaches but I wanna be sure im not buying into a placebo that influencers hype on social media. Do they actually work? Are you wearing them indoors at the computer? Thanks.

Mail from last week never arrived (showed up on informed delivery) but this weeks mail is on time. Is it lost?

6 pieces of mail from last week never showed up despite showing up on informed delivery. One letter is important and i really need it. It is now a week late and still hasn't arrived. Mail that showed up on informed delivery for today and yesterday did arrive the very same day.

I know when informed delivery says its arriving it does not necessarily mean that same day and the pic is not scanned at my local office. Although 95% of the time it is accurate. All of last weeks mail has been skipped by my mailman. USPS is not helpful, went and they gave me a number to call, the local manager or something but they dont pick up.

Should i consider it lost or is there still a small chance it shows up? Chatgpt tells me its most likely lost.

Edit, you guys are all fcking idiots. I ask a normal question and i get shit comments and get downvoted because you cant even bother to read what i post. Waste of my time to ask something here.

Prolific is the new MTurk

Yes another topic about this. I've been here many years and i have over 14k approved submissions. This is not due to "summer". I have seen this movie before. MTurk went down the same route. Its just a click war now. 1500 spots fill up in seconds. Matter of time before researchers leave just like they did on MTurk. Universities are not going to pay good money to get scammed by botfarms or click farms in foreign countries. Its over. My earnings dropped 95% since they opened the floodgates with their referral program. Congratulations Prolific. You killed a good platform for some dollars. Researchers will go to Cloud Connect and other platforms that haven't been overrun by bots yet.

Postal Brain Damaged is the best shooter ive played in a while

Im sure everyone here has already played it but everything in this game scratches that boomer shooter itch. The weapon variety, the level variety, the humor. Everything was just perfect, i havent has this much fun with a shooter in quite a while. I didnt like Doom 2016 and Eternal but this game made me feel like i traveled back in time to the good ol' days. Highly recommended!

Finally tried Postal 4. The most broken game i ever played

As a huge fan of Postal 2 (finished probably a dozen times) i finally tried Postal 4 after its been sitting in my library for a while. Its unplayable for me and the most frustrating gaming experience ever. First glitch was not being able to close the map without going into settings each time. I googled its a known issue for years, why this was never fixed i dont know. But this was the least bothersome one. I had the postal dude randomly dying, randomly freezing, randomly floating. The NPCs freezing and not waking up until i shot at them etc etc...

I really wanted to enjoy this game. I put 12 hours into it. Some missions i had to replay multiple times after they glitched out. On Friday i got permanently stuck at the dam mission. I played the mission probably 10 times before giving up. Every time i would restart the dam a new glitch would happen (postal guy floating, not being able to pick up objects, objects not locking into the dam leak etc). Extremely frustrating that the last mission i had to do on the list was not doable for me. I had some moments i enjoyed the game but it was mostly a big mess. Ive never been more frustrated playing a game. What a huge disappointment.

I really hope they do a better job with Postal 2 remake.

Edit: Its the PC version on Steam.

None on my dashboard right now, usually have 100+ sitting around this time. Received a warning message today about data quality. Ive done hundreds of these studies, not my first warning message but usually they still continue showing up. Sucks because i have no idea what i did wrong and im sure i pass all attention checks.
