    So is it true that getting blocked by too many requesters can put your account at risk? If so, I may message Behavioral Lab to suggest an alternative screening method to prevent the possible risk. They blocked me from their HITs, after which I messaged them to ask why. They explained it's a temporary block in order to prevent me from repeating similar surveys and would be removed in the future. Why wouldn't they just put an IP or worker ID screen like other requesters?

    I was blocked too from doing any of his HITs today. It's a soft block and doesn't harm us.

    A hard block is where it harms us. 3 hard blocks, our account is banned. You will know you got a hard block from an email from Amazon. Soft blocks get no emails, is temporary and harmless.

    me too. If you can auto-accept the next HIT, wouldn't that imply that you can do more than one? The number of HITS doesn't change, though. It remains at 15?

    I've learned not to trust the HIT counter on batches, it's too buggy. After so many you'll get the yellow box with "no more HITs available." I think these are safe to repeat as they're set up like a batch.
