    Masters is kind of a money grab... both of those things promote the grabbing of money on Amazon's end (within reason)

    well, at least people get denied for being in certain locations i think? awhile ago there were an abundance of new users on TH that said they were in texas (?) and got denied/put on a "wait list" of sorts for mturk. that was a thing, right? did i just make it up?

    I suppose that is true.

    But I still hold out hope that Amazon actually does consider these workers as good workers that aren't likely to scam rather than efficient money grabbers

    idk

    Hit speed would definitely be a ridiculous stupid and backwards-ass metric to base it off of either way for sure
