03/24 - Spreading Sunday!

The default is 3 days, like 90% of HITs will approve in that timeframe so it's honestly not worth much.

The old default AA was 8hrs when we could see AA.. Folks would wait for a batch that was sitting up til late at night, mass submit scam it, then have it approve before the requester woke up in the morning

 

Thank's, that must have been nice. I'm guessing it was abused and we can't have nice things?

 

Bingo, baby. LOL.

 

i havent posted a hit in a few months does it still defualt to masters? (all hits should be masters only anyway)

 

Yea (thank god AMIRITE)

 

hilarious and sneaky of amazon to try to get extra cash like that

 

i got it, all hits should start masters, and if they suck masters should be able to let them be released to plebs.

 

billion dollar idea

 

*grumbles in pleb*

 

im in last place goign into the sweet 16 in my bracket. There's still a scenario i can finish second!! Michigan State needs to beat Auburn in championship lmao

I'm down for that scenario - pretty much the only way the Big10 gets any love this year

 

that tn/ia game was pretty bonkers tho.

 

This will likely sound naive, but I can't help but wonder why people would but their worker accounts in jeopardy to scam a few batches.
I mean even if it was stolen/scam accounts or something, wouldn't the account be worth more than the batch?

 

I think the people who have full-on scam in their hearts are more interested in the immediate money than the possibility of long-term money

 

That's a very good point, Thanks

Lost their account over $7 worth of scamming A9s.. AN AMAZON REQUESTER

The level of stupidity to scam an AMAZON REQUESTER on AMAZON mechanical turk pretty much shows that there are no bounds to the level of dumbassery when it comes to this platform.

 

Barcodes is another prime example.. Amazon requester, requires masters, well known for immediate account suspensions for scamming their tasks

And yet, every single time they come around, a few days later "OMG I GOT SUSPENDED UNFAIRLY" threads

 

I had a full minute and a half of hardy guffaws at this one...

What's even better is the fact that they'd admitted to being a scammy piece of shit human being in another thread a couple hours before
