IM HERE TO FREE YOU FROM THE CHAINS OF IGNORANCE VRAPI SUCKERS, FIRST THE BASIC TENANTS OF BEING AN ADVANCED RESEARCH MASTER:

Recognize that VRAPI does not give a single flying fuck about you, it is not rewarding work, it is not a career, you are not part of any "team" and everyone who has 25 queue spots to fill is a lying devil who doesn't deserve to have the qual, if you can get it revoked by giving them incorrect information, do so without mercy.

Submit with the lowest amount of work you possibly can get away with to increase your hourly. If you lose the qual because you only submitted 1 screenshot instead of 3 you've done yourself a favor because you're no longer working like a fucking moron for a company who is selling your work at 15 times the price & lying about the fact you're even a human being. They legitimately don't even let their customers know real people are finding these addresses, they claim you're "robots" in their marketing materials, lmfao. Fuck I doubt their own CEO knows they have a ton of people manually sitting on AirBNB all day finding addresses he probably thinks the project manager is a fucking wizard.

When you first get the qual, this is how you get good at VRAPI:

Immediately forget all of the high-tech bullshit detective work you used to get the qual. Those qual HITs are retarded, only morons are actually submitting those types of HITs when VRAPI posts a real batch, which is why they keep using them as qual HITs trying to get people who are capable/willing to do that kind of ridiculously overworked private investigator shit because they STILL haven't realized that no one is going to do that if a quicker option is available & everyone with half a brain will quit working on the damn HITs the second those easy HITs are gone.

Get a stopwatch

Click on the "preview" button for the biggest batch they have uploaded

Look at the hit, do the following check list:

Is the address of the building in the title?

Is the name of the condo / apartment / etc in the title?

Is there a full frontal (lol) picture of the house w/ street # or other identifying attributes clearly visible?

Is there a picture of a rental permit?

Is the host one of those "Vacation Company By Kate" places (they have the same photos WITH addresses on their website 9/10)

If you cannot answer those questions in 10s or less, hit skip and do 5 pushups as punishment for your unfamiliarity & lack of focus. You lack discipline.

Get back to it on the next HIT, over & over until you can do the above checklist in 5s or less. Don't stop & submit shit. Don't play private eye inspector gadget, just hit skip.

When you can answer the above in 5-10s or less, then ask yourself why THAT is the list I put together, when you know the answer to each of them and why you're looking for them (I gave you the last one as a freebie) do this:

Get rid of the stopwatch (did you really use this? my god man)

Click on preview, do the checklist, when you find a "YES" accept it, leave it in your queue

Go back to preview, do this 25 more times until your queue is filled with HITs you can submit in less than 1 minute

Submit them all, rinse & repeat

For professionalism, start tracking how long it takes you to find a full queue. If that ever dips below $20/hr, stop doing VRAPIs and go do anything else with your life because they aren't worth slaving over unless you have an eviction notice on your door. Add things to the mini-checklist I gave you as you recognize them as "easy submit" patterns.

Fin.

(most of this post in tongue in cheek, but its also dead-ass how you make lots of money on VRAPI if you aren't an idiot. those are not hits you have a good working relationships with the requester over, because that working relationship will NEVER be rewarded.)

No. I wake up, I make things for turkers, I teach turkers how to turk, I teach requesters how to upload hits, then I go to bed & do it again the next day.

Is there a chrome extension that automatically collapses images? That would be very useful for these A9s. It would make me scroll less.

So, first of all I would like to say you should start doing freelance writing on Upwork because you have a great command of the language. I was genuinely amused and enjoyed reading this post. Second of all, the quoted part is literally every company in America. If you feel otherwise? Haha, they did a great job fooling you.
