Considering the circumstances are unknown I have to say I do not see your point. There is no reason to call this requester a jerk or unintelligent just yet. That is over-reacting. I agree it needs to be brought to her attention, but in the proper way.. and give it time if she is being swamped. She may unblock you, and if that is the case would you still call her names?
In addition to that, she has posted thousands of hits that people run to do because of her reputation.. I know a block sucks and is frustrating, but give it time to work itself out
naisybee just venting her feelings at the moment. I've gone through the same feelings once I found out I was rejected. Wanting to call her names out of frustration. It's only natural. Sometimes it's best to cool off first before starting to write anything about it or emailing the requester. I've done that. I waited til I was cooled off and was thinking rationally.
agreed.. but we have seen in the past that it leads to a bad vibe in the thread and people bring out the pitch forks.. my point exactly.. cool down then approach the situation.. its better all around
Totally agree with the give it time method. She responded to me fast, presumably because I emailed as soon as the rejections HIT. If she did that to many people she is probably going to receive lots of email very quickly. I would give it a little time and be polite in the email. In mine, I mentioned how I had done lots of approved work for her in the past and that I was ok with a rejection, but a block didn't seem fair given the circumstances. She was very understanding. Likewise, if someone requesting work done is smart, they will know that getting a bad rep in these type of communities is a death sentence. Look at productrnr, that chemistry video guy, and to a lesser extent netmsi. You turn off the good people from doing your HITs if you leave a bad taste in our mouths.
I agree. This is the wiser path to take. It's not nice to call people stupid. I did think this requester left a stupid note for a nickel hit though. But I don't plan on working for her. She can't fire me. I quit.
It seems almost all of the hits are centered around polling places.. seeing as the election is tomorrow I wonder if that is somehow tied in to people getting blocked
I noticed in WSR's notes at the bottom that he's a worker first and a requester second...wonder who he is...anyone ANYONE? Come on I just wanna give you an e-hug!
I don't know but thanks for posting. I made $5 from these. I hope there's more to come. Even better, they are already approving.
