    Seriously go to the Crowdsurf guidelines and go down to the part called Keyboard Shortcuts. All the examples have the plus sign.

    Thanks for responding! I hear you on their lack of communication. Last time I messaged them I received a "we'll look into it" response, but I have heard nothing back since then.

    It does sound like that was what was tripping me up. And I think I see what's going on. In the most recent style guide linked from the HIT UI, under "Menus and Keyboard shortcuts," they show "File > Open" as an example, and the text states "When the speaker instructs the user to go to a menu or to press a certain combination of keys, use the following conventions." which seems to imply this convention holds for both menu items and key combinations.

    However, further down the style guide, in the "Keyboard Shortcuts" section near the bottom, they give examples for Shift, Cmd, and Ctrl as "Shift-click to select all of the files in the folder.", "Press Cmd+Z (Mac) to undo the last action.", and "Press Ctrl+Z (Windows) to undo the last action." They also give a similar example a few lines further down for spelling out the word "comma" when it appears in a keyboard shortcut.

    I'd never seen the ">" convention used for keyboard shortcuts before, so I assumed this only held for menu navigation (and with tonight's guy, should I be using that at all, considering how verbose he's been for describing the menu navigation?) Guess I have yet another thing to bug them about!

    Was sarcastic, if you can handle graphic images you can get through in like 25-30.

    I'm not doing anymore until they email me back with clarification on that. It says to do two separate things in two separate parts of the guidelines.

    Yes, that's confusing. But the examples they give are just for how to write the keys, not the syntax of how to chain commands together. It's probably from an old rubric. I should email them about that, because this is clearly what they want you to do:

    Now I feel really bad for rejecting.

    Also note that they don't, as a reviewer, tell you that you're rejecting someone when you rate them POOR. **** CrowdSurf.

    It's private property, and the owner of said property can restrict photography without written warning, if desired. So perhaps it's not illegal per se, but stores certainly could kick someone out for taking pictures of products if they wish.

    Likewise. Going to bug them about that as well just to get the point through. I'm perfectly happy following a style guide with styles that seem strange to me, but I'm not going to risk it when multiple reviewers could interpret things differently. :-\

    Yeah, they just "look into it" by warning the reviewer in an email, telling them to not rate poor when it's not warranted. Even if it is. CrowdSurf sucks, I'm going to just rate everyone Good from now on. sigh.

    I've emailed them and will be spamming them until they answer to this crap.

    Yeah, hopefully if enough people bug them they'll edit it to make it more clear.

    Yes definitely! Apparently it was pushed back because 40 isn't done with it yet so that's probably why you haven't found anything.

    Well thanks for helping me figure out what was going on at least. Don't worry about the rejections, I've got ~6K hits at the moment and 3 rejections total so I'm not stressed about it. I'm totally going to email them about this, though, since keyboard shortcuts and menu navigation are, well, rather important for a transcription company that thrives on computer tutorials and such. Hopefully they'll get it fixed soon.

    Don't worry, they'll lazily reverse the rejection and then warn me and then go back to being a lazy company contracted to transcribe lectures for big $$$.

    How are people doing FE hits so fast? It takes me like 3-5 minutes a hit. :(
