oh wow thanks! looking at charts there now!

 

Hello there.

Am a new turker on my first week and was doing ok, at least getting the hang of it I think. Well I was having luck getting some small simple .01 batches and getting my hits up, but the limit on new accounts makes it painfully annoying. I got to about 300 with 1 rejection. Yesterday I found a batch from a new requestor and did a few and they were approved fast, so I worked on the batch. Today I come back on to a whole lot of rejections and tanked my rating all the way to 87. Not sure why because the reason is "bad address/description", which I can see for a couple of the hits but not for a few and definitely not most. Maybe because I was returning a good amount of hits that I couldn't submit because of the info not being available or complete? I reported a couple at first but then I was just returning any that weren't complete.

Is this the end? Death by turkiside?

 

Who is the requester?

 

were those vacation rental api qualification hits?

 

Did anyone get those new quals yet? I'm still waiting. They never mentioned an approval rating so I guess us with 99+% are gonna have to wait for them to wade through them all.

 

I just reread their post. they say it's individualized so people might have to wait to hear back. also here is their post again if more people want to try to get that qual.

I know that much, it's a good idea. But no approval rating specified? You must not want the qual the way you keep posting it.

 

I won't post it anymore then. I hope you get it!

 

It's good sportsmanship to let us know who is rejecting so we can avoid them.

 

Thank you, I hope I get it too. This actually looks right up my alley. I like how it will be personalized so we're sure to know exactly what they want. Not checking my email every twenty minutes today like I did Friday. Being patient.

 

Ah sorry, like I said am new to this. Plus, I'm a little bummed out.

requester is Data Mangrove.

I was doing good with the p9r ones and I thought I was risking it with those being a "poor" requester but I had no problem with those batches.

The hits do have this note, which am not too sure about:
Head's Up
Because of the increased importance of rejection information for this HIT we'll update the approval and rejection information automatically as it comes in (for this review only). You can also wait until all tasks have approved/rejected to review this HIT.

Should I even dispute?

 

I sent them an email - have not heard back

 

It's still showing as pending. Yeah, dispute it, it might say it isn't going through but it does.
What a crappy requester.

 

No, it was from new requestor Data Mangrove.

I was hoping on getting to 1k hits while waiting for the Vacation Rentals qual. Now I probably wont qualify anymore

 

Wild! Has anyone recently lost the qual for Ben Peterson HIT's? I've had it for over a decade, and today no qual.

 

Do I just go into each and send the dispute? Contact requester? They're not showing as pending. 83 sub, 40 app, 41 rej, 1 pending. All in the last two days.

 

I haven't had a rejection for so long... Is there a link near the rejection on your dashboard that says "dispute rejection"?
Try sending one and see if he responds, if not send them all.

I sent you a PM with a few ways to get your numbers up.
