    You'll get them, which is why it's important to get loads of little hits, to reduce the percentage of rejects. Many hits gray out the "submit" button or give you a red error message if you omitted something, so you can go back and fix it.

    Every rejection hurts for some of us even if it shouldn't. That's the way we are. Lots of us can afford rejections but yet we don't want any. Especially ones that we didn't deserve.

    Getting your numbers up helps a lot.

    My rejections are just battle scars from terrible requesters who mass rejected for the hell of it. I was furious each time it happened, but it just made me super careful on who I work for.

    Also back in 2012 and early 2013, requesters didn't/couldn't reverse rejections as easily as they do now. Lots of us were stuck with rejections that they couldn't reverse. I have a 2 from those times. One said they would reverse, never did. Another said they didn't know how.

    Thank you guys for sharing. I really did sting to find the 2 rejections this morning, especially the one were it doesn't state why. I've emailed her and asked.

    I have close to 120K submitted and a 99.9% approval rate. Lori Black is, IMO, reserved a special place in hell for rejecting a 1 penny hit a few weeks ago. It still makes me mad. I hate even seeing it when I look at past 45 days

    Even worse . . . She rejected it with the message "Perfect" . . . No reply to emails

    You'll be an old hand in no time! I got seven rejections yesterday, my first in months. Six of them were all on me, no biggie. But the seventh was a result of Requester/Turk error and the requester is not responsive. Those ones tend to annoy more. Build up a cushion of HITs and you will be fine. Mass rejections, like Nate mentioned, are pretty rare.

    Wow that's terrible. A rejection over a penny and then to top it off with "perfect" is something else. Sounds like maybe it was a system rejection. I often hear requesters apologize that the system rejected it and they would reverse those.

    ARRC always has good paying surveys. There are a couple each $1 and $4 surveys up. Take the quick qual test and it is auto granted if you qualify for this round. The $4 one I got only took me 10 minutes, and I'm slow.

    I've never once qualified for one of their HITs, so I'd given up trying.

    But it's slow so I tried again. Surprise! Didn't qualify.
