This thread is a placeholder! What is this? Spoiler I am Tjbot! I'm a solution devised by the genious mods to prevent there ever being a day that hit threads aren't posted! The whole point of my existence is to post a hit thread if one doesn't exist by 12:08am PST. If you see this post, assume that this one is the main post. One of the mod team will clean up existing posts and consolidate once they wake up and get online. As my name indicates, I am a bot. I don't post, nor do I respond to PM's. If you have any problems, send an email to tjbot@ns4t.net or PM Tjololo, he can help out with any issues. Want to make tomorrow's thread? Just go for it!

Got rejected for this. Claiming I generated a random code and did not actually complete the task. This is something else.
No matter how often it happens, I never stop being surprised so many requesters are just straight up thieves
The requesters really seem wound-up about the bots. I got a rejection last week and the a few days later the requester contacted me saying she was using bot detecting software and mine triggered it. She said it was wrong and they reversed it. Most of the rejections I get nowadays seem to be from the Qualtrics bot detecting software. It's bots vs bots. Just put a pic of a cat on a roomba and a few choices and move the fuck on. I just completed a survey that had more attention checks than questions.
I find it hard to believe that there are actual bots created by turkers to do surveys? I guess it is possible but dumb for ruining it for the rest of us. Here's one requester that explained to me what they see on their end after I inquired about their low approval rates. "I see some weird stuff from workers that I can see on the survey side -- IDs listed twice within 1 hour of posting (not sure how they did that on the same HIT), and I have seen the exact same open ended responses between 2 people with different IDs but the same demographic details -- like they have two turker accounts. Once you take the survey you would understand how responses to our 2 open ended responses could not be the same. Most of our rejections are clear reasons (e.g. copy and pasted content; irrelevant content, etc.), so rejections are typically for inauthentic accounts.." I feel for the requesters having to screen out junk surveys from legit ones. This is one reason why we see lower approval rates. We only see our side and they have theirs. Contacting them after rejections should help showing that we are real and they will be reversed most of the time. A painful process that we have to go through.
