Is there an alternative to turkopticon. I'm really getting tired of the moderators flagging an hiding posts. They are not even following the rules of the site. I vote a 4 instead of a 5 for fairness and they flagged and hid my review. The rules clearly states "If you simply disagree with a reviewer, but believe they are reviewing with good intent, even if you think they are reviewing "wrongly", comment instead. Flags, generally, are for reviews which appear to have some sort of malicious intent." I'm not wasting my time on posting another review on that site.
Someone while back spoke of creating an alternative. I don't know if that's still in the making or what. Found the thread: http://mturkforum.com/showthread.php?33062-TurkOpticon-Alternative&p=1221573&viewfull=1#post1221573
Would be nice to have alternative. TO is useless. The reviews vary all over the board. Especially like the 5/5 reviews for a 30 minutes HIT for 40 cents. I pay attention mostly to the rejections if any and blocks. And even then, who knows if that's true.
I agree. I think block and rejections are very important. Also when people spend over 10 minutes on a survey just to be disqualified. There are many requester that are not paying people that have good to great TOs. A lot of reviews are justified that are being hidden. I hope the other site opens up or another.
TO is very subjective. I'm happy to have it though. How intuitive do you have to be to figure out what's real and what is not? I've done plenty of jobs for requestors who have treated me fairly despite a mediocre TO.

A little too selective, me thinks...

TO sucks because people have different views on what is good or not. Until everyone values their own time the same anything with a quick AA will be considered 5 stars.
