    I think he's unclear himself, as he auto approved all of the 300 or so hits I did for him last Sunday.. I've also got a load of pending hits from him from the middle of the week too which i'm guessing will auto approve. There's even still some pending from the same day I got the rejections which doesn't make sense.

    I obviously used the exact same method to do the ones on Sunday to the ones in midweek which were rejected, so there must be a pretty fine line between 300 approved hits and 299 mass rejected along with a block and a suspension from MTurk. That's not a tightrope i'd ever wish to walk again, put it that way.

    Oh, and I just checked his TO page again and yet another person has posted, this time talking of 750 rejections :S

    Iceblink, that is so so so so great! I am really happy for you!

    What happened to you seriously upset me. I could not believe the arbitrariness of it. Now at least part of the problem - your part - has been solved.

    If you want my advice, never, ever go anywhere near l2w again.

    Congrats iceblink. To hell and back, and having seen the devil himself (l2w) but being rescued by your good deeds (42000 hits) by the all knowing god (Mturk). He he.

    Just sent a pretty standard email to their CS.. I did some research on other people that have been suspended and it seems they've improved massively in helping people, than how it was in 2010 or so. So that's good news for everyone.

    Thanks so much!

    lol nicely put. Thanks!

    Congrats @iceblink, really nice to know that you got your account back, this is the first time i am hearing that Mturk reinstated a suspended account, it really inspires some confidence working for them :) .

    @iceblink, I'm glad that they've returned your account. I'm a little nervous now. I cannot take that many rejections I have about 600 pending... :/ It's a little scary...

    An apology is great, but do they consider the heart attacks, high blood pressure, and depression caused when their automated bot blows somebody's world apart?

    Congrats on getting your account back, it shows there MIGHT still be intelligence life at Amazon.

    Yeah I saw your posts when I was browsing the old ones of others who have been suspended, it was one that gave me some hope

    Feels good to get the same outcome.

    True, it's sickening when you get that suspension email, feels like a hard kick in the balls lol

    I'm just thankful I didn't have to suffer a month of it, I've seen people who have but hopefully this is a good sign for the future.

    I wasn't expecting to see all of my work being rejected from Classify This. I did about 90 and they blocked me then rejected all my work saying that they random checked the results and they did not match the other 2 persons. Hmmm...I didn't do anything differently than when I worked on their last batch recently. Now my rating is tanked (down to 92%). I really was diligent when I worked on their hits. I provided explanation/website title etc. A lot of their web page were the Russian social media page and I provided info for that. It is very discouraging. I guess I will need to work on Oscar's hits for a while to build up my rating again.

    I do 500-600 classify this hits a day. The key to it is returning ANYTHING that is questionable. If your reject rate hits a certain % they reject all of your work. I average 0-3 rejects per 500. I return roughly 100 hits in the process of doing 500. It takes ALOT of returning but I get hardly any rejects. I am sorry to hear that happened to you though. try redwood they have some easy 1 cent fast transcript review hits up they take 10 secs or less to do.
