p9r
Reject. I put my full effort in all my work.
Can't even share the news on TurkerView (that seems kinda messed up/in favor of the requester).

 

TV isn't really for batches, and most people already know p9r's reputation anyway.

 

I wish I knew their rep sooner.

 

hey!

send them an email, they are responsive. Even if you are not correct (most likely), they are going to reverse it.

many people complain about them but they actually do not read the small details (imho). I am fine with p9r. They are heavily underpaid but not rejection friendly, they reject for a reason.

 

You don't have to blatantly lie to people. It isn't cool. P9R isn't responsive to anyone that I have ever talked to.

 

They replied to me, other polar bear and a friend. Not just replied but also reversed. Sending an email would not hurt.

 

They also are reject happy because your work is being compared to 3rd worlders who don't even use the same alphabet. I don't know why you'd spread blatant misinfo about one of the most notoriously poor requesters on the platform.

 

Really? I feel like the knock on p9r has always been that they reject random stuff but will overturn it if you DM them.. I've seen that recommended all the time

 

I didn't realize what a can of worms this opened up. I'm only playing the victim because I think it's funny. I didn't and don't mind. For what it's worth, though, it could be scaring off people who otherwise would have participated.

 

Everyone that I have ever talked to and experience with my brother has been nah you are fucked if you get rejected.

 

I still say that you should email but don't expect anything from it...

 

I could've been filled with righteous indignation for the past 2 weeks if I knew what this was about:

Greetings from Amazon Mechanical Turk,

You've received a bonus from evers for work related to 3OYHVNTV5TIOI3U5DEVQDK76023OKS.
The value of your bonus is: $0.15 USD

The Requester included this note:
Hi, this is Ellen's student. I promised her to give the bonuses over 2 weeks ago but I did not. Please don't blame Ellen. I have given you $.15 instead of $.10. My sincerest apologies.

people do not do that. People who are doing p9rs are the ones who are new to mturk and they say fuck it, I am not going to send an email for a cent, they do not know how important a reject is.

 

Yeah, my mom did MTurk a few years ago and she did a bunch of p9r's when she first started and got rejected on a couple. She got them reversed with an email though and then she pretty much quit Mturk after that lol

 

I know people including @morweeg that have emailed them a ton of times and they refused to reverse the reject.

Perhaps they have more than one person dealing with their emails?

 

maybe.
they even explained why I got a rejection on a one cent HIT
and they were right but still reversed.
