Hello everyone. Out of curiosity I set up my scraper to only show Masters hits. I was astonished. No wonder they can easily make hundreds per week. Are their opinions that much more valuable than mine?
No. This happens because Amazon makes "masters required" the default setting when creating new HITs, and they hide the settings making it difficult to turn off. Most new requesters are not even aware that their HIT is set to require the masters qualification. The whole "masters" program is just a marketing scam by Amazon designed to squeeze a little extra money out of unwary requesters.
