    I'm just curious what other people's largest mass rejection was at one time.

    Wish I could tell you, but 99.9% of my rejections came from Amazon's own HITs in late 2005 during the beta. Lots, I'm sure. I ran up 2281 over the course of a couple of weeks in December of that year (we all did -- Amazon was brutal).

    Since 2005, my largest group was just two at once on August 8th, 2011, worth $5.60. Don't think I've had any rejections other than those two HITs, 2006-2013.

    Ive had only two mass rejections, for ~100 HITS. Both batches were .01 HITs. Sickening.

    Mine was about 15 at once. It was for a HIT that was very similar to another one posted by the same requester. I didn't realize that I was doing a different HIT right away so I wound up with those rejections.

    Don't remember the requester exactly but it was when I first started. I think it was called something like Craft Fair Listings. Rejected like 30 or 40 of them. Had to work hard to get back above 98% approved.

    When I first started turking I was doing amazon's hits and I got 10 rejections but I did 1000 hits so no big deal. I get occasional rejections here and there-it's going to happen when you're cranking out hundreds or thousands of hits per day-nobody is perfect. I did those stupid military bid hits a couple months ago and got half of them rejected. Thankfully I only did around a dozen total and I had done hundreds of other hits so it didn't hurt me too much. I don't bother requesters about it. I know I must have done something wrong and they surely don't pay enough for me to waste even more time whining to them over some ten cent hit. If I ever did get a massive rejection though I would be trying to find out if others had the same experience with that requester and if so, then it would be ON! I'm a force to be reckoned with when I've been wronged on purpose ;)

    Got 12 rejected on a hit rating words in order of formality. It was 6:00am, had been up over 24 hours, and had a screaming baby while doing them.

    Lesson learned, dont do a new batch of hits unless the first one gets approved, if you're unsure. Second, dont do new or complicated hits when you're insanely tired.

    Im at 97% rating because of it, i will seriously need 1782 hits approved to get back up to 99%

    I once stayed up for 48 hours turking to get all the hits from one requester that I could because good batch hits are so rare and you never know when you'll have an opportunity to make some money again. Feast or famine...

    Sacrifices you have to make working online. I often tell people, there is no set time schedule I work. :)

    Exactly! I work when there's something that pays me enough. Otherwise I put my time to better use cleaning, hanging with friends or whatever. This sitting all day long doing .02 hits for a $4 day is gross stupidity. But if the money is there, I'm in it to win it ;)

    119 rejected due to a faulty hit. The info didn't auto-save upon submission. He pulled the batch, reposted, and they worked great. I made a lot of $$ on the remaining batch. He said he put in a request to Amazon to reverse all of the rejections because they were his fault, but, alas, 37 days later and still no reversal. I think I'm eating those rejections.

    A few weeks after I started turking I got 67 rejections from Liat. Don't know his last name, though. :/ I'm glad it was only 67! I heard of someone else getting 500+ So over half my rejections are from him! The other half are probably from Readabl and Delf >w<

    I think mine was from user453, that's 2 years ago, I've got 24 rejection and 15 were reversed. After that, I kept a lists of requester whose approval is majority rule.
