    IT IS NOT CAPPED. He said in his message in the app it is a block but not hard block.

    If you use the word 'blocked' people will be needlessly confused by you.

    You aren't blocked in any way that matters on mturk.

    Cool but you will have the discussion that you just had right now every time you mention it if you just say 'soft-block' or something like that.

    Most of us stopped doing his work ages ago anyways.

    It's worth not disregarding completely as a requester, at least to me.

    mturk blocks (purple panda, inability to accept even though you're qualified) are scary bad news, so that's why RA doesn't want anyone to get confused. a requester saying "no thanks plz go away" is no big deal, you just can't work for them.

    i understand what you're trying to say, noah himself is blocking you within the hit, not through mturk. but the term 'block' carries a scary association with mturk so it's unfortunate he used that term to confuse people.
