    Hi I too get rejections from p9r and asked them for review it again and got reversed. But, it is ridiculous asking every time for 1cent hits. So I quit working with them. People do their hits only to increase their ratings other than their pay is way too little.

    Regarding Jon Brelig I got some rejections two years ago and stopped working with them. Then, I recently understand from this forum somebody suggested they are fair with their evaluations. So I started working with them and now so far I didn't get any one rejected hits. But, I work only if I can't find any other worth hits to do. It kills time with low pay. But, somebody still saying they started blocking workers. It is better to try with few and see what happens.

    Hi Nahas Abdulsalam,
    Still i don't get how u can do so much hits in a day.Even if you spend 1 minute for a hit and working 24 hrs it would make only 1440.Are u using multiple tabs? Is it allowed?

    you can use as many as tabs you can as long as you're producing quality work.

    Choosing browser is user's discretion and i don't think it is in any way violations of TOS. Hits load in different speed on different browsers.I got the warnings and temporary suspensions some two years back when I started turking.When i had a"slow loading problem of pictures" I tried to overcome this problem by accepting two hits of the same batch simultaneously so that by the time when i had finished one the other would have loaded fully.

    You will be temporarily suspended if you exceeded maximum page request limit.

    In most cases it caused by page monitor.

    Don't monitor too many pages. Try to limit it to 2 - 3.

    All I did was, accepted two hits of the same requester simultaneously, having 500 pictures each.Would that amount to exceeding the maximum page request limit?

    definitely not. i had several incidents in which pulled 4-8 preview and accept requests in fraction of second without any problem.

    Is it only me or the stats posted by Nahas seem impossible, unless he is a Master Worker. Because in January there have hardly been any HITS for normal workers from India.
    Till December I used to average 1200-1500 HITS per week, but this month it's been less than 10 HITS per week.
    Also total HITS available on Mturk have come down from 4,00,000-5,00,000 to only 2,00,000 this month.

    I don't get any warnings or issues using multiple tabs. I use to open multiple tabs with different browsers and doesn't had any issues ever. Only got suspended for 5 minutes when captcha goes wrong more than thrice and it didn't affect my scores or account in any ways when I was non-masters.

    Sathir,I think simply opening multiple tabs may not be a violation but accepting two hits simultaneously ,ie trying to do two hits at the same time may be a violation. I did so to save time lapse due to slow loading of pictures.I used to accept two hits of a batch hit at the same time and by the time I complete the first one, the pictures(500 nos) of other hit would have loaded fully.Whenever I did this I got warnings followed by temporary suspensions for 5 minutes.All these things happened some time during the first 6 months of my mturking and i was not aware of these forums i kept mum.And once i stopped doing that, there was no more suspensions.

    Using two different tabs, or even computers to turk at the same time is NOT a violation of ToS. I have three main turking computers and I use all three of them on almost daily basis, sometimes at the same time. In 5 years of turking, 250k hits I have never received any warning. I haven't heard anyone else receiving warning for it either.

    hi manzician,
    thank you for the reply,I am not sure why i was suspended and i assumed this must be reason because once i stopped accepting two hits of a batch simultaneously,the suspension also stopped.Since all these happened in the beginning days and also was not aware of these forums and having the problems resolved,i did not bother to explore more about it.
