Methinks it's time to restart my browser, because the three HITs I apparently posted, I didn't. I clicked the main body of the text to expand it.

 

I really love when a returned HIT review says "Screened @ 0:14" or "Experiential Writing" from like 10 minutes ago, so you know it's the same exact HIT, and the screener is literally "We're seeing if you read the instructions. Leave this blank."

Makes me laugh thinking someone dumped 5 minutes into a long-ass diatribe about something then gets screened out because they can't spare 3 seconds to skim for the word "attention" in the paragraph.

 

I had to email them as well because the upload button is broken and won't save the data. They say submit anyway on their can't upload page but theres no actual submit button. I hope their nice and compensate or else I just wasted 25 mins.

 

Well two requests are better than one! So maybe we'll get comps.

Greetings from Amazon Mechanical Turk,

You've received a bonus from SelfConcept for work related to 3QMELQS6Y5AZRVR3TJXQZGPXWFC6RK.
The value of your bonus is: $48.00 USD

The Requester included this note:
For completing our followup surveys and tasks - thanks for your patience!

 

Does anyone know how to undo a requester block? I was just blocked by a requester I've done a ton of HITs for for no reason.

 

I think you can try to email the requester and see if they would be willing to remove it. Other than that, there's not much that can be done.

 

I had to do that with a $20 HIT where I had to record my phone screen using the site as well as the deferred payment site (which, I actually finally got the products I ordered on their emailed CC yesterday. Hello, short-sleeved hoodie and new t-shirt!) I emailed them that I was still uploading the video through the Google Docs form that used my mTurk ID as the upload 'sign-in', and explained it was going to take a while and to please not immediately reject. 3 hours later on 2 bars of 4g, they finally uploaded. Got my $20, and $32 worth of clothes.

 

how long after you submitted did you get your bonus? im still working on mine and its a slog for sure

email them and ask is about the only way to do it

 

Soft or hard block? They may just be limiting how many you can do temporarily because the HITs are related and they want a new set of workers. That's just simply giving you an exclusion qual. A hard block, like I've got from a certain requester, is from being an absolute jerk and insulting their Engrish when I found out they were working for a Chinese-backed AI Twitter-bot Lab is undoable. You won't be able to see a hard-blocked requester.

If you can see it, you've got an exc: qual that'll go away after a while.

 

This is actually dependent on the requester. Some use it as a "lifetime block" for workers which while it is unfortunate it's better than an actual MTURK hard block.
