That's pretty funny. I have no dog in this hunt, but somehow the issues don't surprise me. I didn't participate because my gut told me something was going to go wrong. I hope everyone gets paid. Good luck with the research.

96% of the people in the research study have been patient, supportive and anxious for it to restart.

I'll use my 10% to donate to this forum when I receive it. I would encourage some of you guys to do the same. Or at the very least buy Mikesal57 some new pants.
Good one Turf.....

Gotta love that those that are a bit cheesed about not being compensated for an inordinately long time are continually being criticized for speaking out. Idk about anyone else but I don't give my time to anyone for free unless it's close friends and family. KPK is neither. Hey Turf, I'm moving soon and since you're so giving, how bout you come lend a hand. Pizzas on me and I promise to compensate you, within a couple of months that is.

Seems to me that the biggest critics of KPK on this board are the guys that didn't participate in the SWARM.

I've been checking the thread because there have been some really funny posts. If the latest "we had the money but couldn't pay you, but the delay in paying you caused us to lose the money we had to pay you" post doesn't make you laugh then I don't know what to tell you....

maybe the Research Project was on "Deprival-Superreaction Tendency"?
  1. Promise a Paycheck
  2. Fake the Funk
  3. See who shows their ass
  4. Pay Them after studying their reaction to deprival

We are working around the clock to recover so that we may remit payment as soon as possible, and estimate this may take a few more weeks to achieve.

We understand this news may provoke further frustration and perhaps doubt, but please be assured that it is still our top priority to complete your payment and re-activate the swarm research program urgently. As a thank you for your continued patience, we will include a 10% bonus to your outstanding compensation balance. We remain dedicated to transparency and will provide updates as further progress is made.

Thank you very much again for your sustained patience and understanding, and please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns.


All the best,
KPK Ventures

I imagine the only thing bringing on "further frustration and doubt" is more then 2 weeks has passed again with no communication, no signs of resolution or getting people paid. Continually hiding behind excuses is a poor way to conduct oneself. Man up fellas and be honest with those who participated.

To any level headed individual the damage has been done to their reputation. Enough said.

"Sometimes you just need to have a little faith"

Mariel Hemingway in "Manhattan."

There's a fine line between skepticism and cynicism. And now I look forward to getting paid for something that is fun.
