    Meaning that it's too difficult to determine whether he is actually rejecting fairly, especially if you do hundreds of hits. If you use the same techniques that you have used before on 1 batch and he approves all those and then you use the same method on another batch days later and he rejects nearly all of them. How is that possible? You would think that he would've found some mistakes in the first batch. Just my opinion.

    second part of the music study was more like a reward for dealing with the first part. 3 mins and no torture involved for $0.75

    Hey all, got work off today so I guess I'll be making half-wage today.

    I'm in the mindset of avoiding NetMsi and ProductRnR now unless there's really nothing else. ProductRnR hasn't posted anything in a few days. I haven't been rejected by either of them over hundreds of HITs, but hearing some of you guys' stories is enough to make me hesitant.

    You could probably get away with doing a few of them, just don't go all out. That's all I'm saying.

    I haven't had time to do it yet, but that's a relief! I'll be sure to show my "appreciation" to the researchers regardless ;)

    Yes!!! LOL

    That you! Much better today....

    And that was NOTdirected at you by the way...

    Primarily that was directed at a few certain Lurkers I have located because of posts forwarded to me from others...

    But also - I wanted to remind every one that we have a "SH*T TON" of requesters reviewing this thread! And if you say something regarding them, they will likely see it, or some as**ole will forward it to them! So don't say something you will regret later! :D Get me???

    Now "Go Make That Money!!!"

    The ever so fun Corbis hits are back. Kind of monotonous but they auto approve everything immediately. If you can find your groove, it's a good way to get your numbers up.

    I've completed about 15-20 Jaime Arguello HITs without being cutoff, it's pretty good payment for a batch hit that's so easy, but I'm curious if I should start to be worried about how many I'm being able to do since a few of you were cut off after 2-4. He has an excellent TO rating and I would love to continue doing them, but wondering if I need to be cautious about anything? How quickly were these approved for you guys earlier?

    I totally agree with you. When you first started this thread it was clear, find good Hits and post. It seems that as of the last week or so it has become a conversation/talk about my feelings type of thread. I try to post as much as possible but it seems that every time I log on this thread is losing it's credibility.

    I would suggest to all turkers, that if you have something negative to say about a Requester, you start your own thread or search posts and add to those. Rob has been very generous in starting this thread every day for, I don't know how long and it would be nice if it could just stay as it was.

    That normally means you are doing a great job. Keep at it.

    I'll make sure to keep my bitterness to myself ;) As soon as I finish this jelly bean monstrosity, I'll hit the boards and see what I can dig up for everyone.

    Has anyone tried the Audio Transcription Hits from CastingWords? They look like the pay out pretty well, but I always see the same ones up all the time as if no one bother to do them. Do they take too long or something?

    I was just reading somewhere... honestly can't remember where brain is fried, that the cutoff was an error on jamie's end and has since been fixed! After it was fixed, I was able to do them again, so give it a try!!!
