12/06 - Strange Sunday!

What was the GID?

 

I tried to do an RID search on panda, it still says searching, I don't see any HIT links I can get from turkerview page.

Oddly enough it still shows me having the shoe aesthetic qual. But that TV review startled me because I do remember working my way through the batch and suddenly the 1k+ remaining hits disappeared.

 

Qualification Revoked: Shoe aesthetics
Requester: MLDataLabeler
Grant Date: November 27, 2020
Revoke Date: December 1, 2020
Revoke Reason: You are now eligible to accept additional “Assessment of Shoe Aesthetics” tasks. This qualification is only being used to control the number of tasks an individual Worker can complete. The qualification will be reapplied when your task limit is met. It is not a measure of work quality and does not affect your eligibility for any other MLDataLabeler tasks.

 

Oh, my bad then. I like giving people outdated information in exchange for hearts/TIL reacts.

 

The shoe aesthetics qual is the block afaik

 

Did you pull this with qual sorter or something else? I'm trying to find the specific for mine.

 

Naw, was in the e-mail they sent me when they revoked.

 

I got the same. Only did about 10 of them though

 

Yeah think it may be time sensitive? I didn't do many either had much better work going on

 

Wow - this is the first time I've heard of that. Per Google:

Captcha farms are services that bot developers can query via an API to automate solving Captchas. Instead of using AI to solve Captcha challenges, Captcha farms such as 2Captcha and DeathByCaptcha distribute Captchas to a pool of human workers, usually in developing countries.

There is no explicit law which considers CAPTCHA typing to be illegal. However, by working with CAPTCHA typing websites, you are helping the hackers and spammers to continue their unethical, and in some cases illegal activities. So, although not illegal, CAPTCHA typing is an unethical way to make money online.
​

Damn, I regret doing that captcha hit earlier today. Had no idea...against what I believe in.

 

Ahhh, okay well crud I didn't get an e-mail, yet.. Did they approve your HITs within a few days or are you still waiting?

I had a funny feeling about that MLD. Because it was the newest account with 4 reviews and the name change they had from ML Data Labeler to MLDataLabeler, I kept thinking about Noah Turk accounts and if this person was just trying to clone MLD requester name to attract turkers. Maybe I'm thinking too deep. lol. Never know with people now a days!

 

MTS has what you want.

I don't really have an opinion on captcha hits outside of 'does it pay well?' lol

No emails anymore for account blocks.

It is not.

 

I think so.

I did them probably by 2's in between other better HITS

I thought though I would see the other shoe ones. They all had different numbers

 

They haven't approved them since mid last week I don't think For a while they were doing same day but my last batch of them is still pending iirc

 

still pe

still pending here too

 

Before I got blocked, MLD used to auto approve after 5 days.

 

Alright, successfully spread some misinformation, time to go have lunch.
