Well after a long sweaty bloody year on Mturk. Pulling countless all nighters, insanely long shifts, typing thousands and thousands of hours, researching my life away. I was finally suspended from Amazon Mturk. I'm not going to take his at heart like a lot of people here do. Better yet, I would like to thank Amazon for teaching me everything they taught me over the year. I learned more skills that I can apply in the future. Than I I learned during my whole twelve years of grade school. I would like to thank Amazon for that. Over my time Turking, I've built a personal relationship with a several requesters, or that I now call "clients." Working on Mturk, I was able to get connected with a handful of business people. Who are more than willing to keep me supplied with work outside of Mturk. Actually, more than I can handle at this time. Again, I would like to thank Amazon for that. As for the suspension. 300,000+ hits at a 99.9% Approval rating. Which nearly that whole year, I kept my average at 100.00%. I kept constant communication with requesters on upcoming projects. And was always notified by email before projects posting. Unfortunately, I don't give Amazon money. The requesters do. Best way to put it, Amazon could careless about you or me, only the requesters. Amazon is sneaky, they don't tell you a lot of the stuff that goes on behind the scene. Does anyone know why they made it where you can't contact requesters that you don't have the qualification for? Let me help you out. By not telling requesters their hits are default to post as requiring a Masters. Amazon makes more money off requesters posting the hits requiring Masters. They didn't tell you, they didn't want you to be able to contact the requesters and inform them of Amazon's scheme, by requiring the Masters, and charging more. So what's Amazon's solution? Simply make it where you can't contact the requesters. There's a lot more behind the schemes going on. But I'm not going to spoil Amazon's money making schemes. Amazon has a very good security system, one that is about twice as secure as Paypal or Ebay. My girl, still has an account if we decided we wanted to Turk. Or I would simply create another account and work right around Amazon's security. But, no thanks. I would just like to thank some of you for the Great discussions, the rants, and all the good times we had. But I've decided to branch off and start doing my own work for requesters, without having Amazon take a cut of the requesters change. And without having to have a Poor Management team trying to look over the head and manage me. Razorbacks
I'm sure there is, if I chose the right words. However, my girl can still Turk if we got low on cash. But, I'd prefer to venture outside Mturk, while still working Online. I think I'd go back to selling back to eBay, if I was that desperate for cash.
Sorry to hear that... Did they say why? Hope you didn't have a lot of money sitting there. Are you able to withdraw it?
Wish you the best too, had an interesting and entertaining time here. Some times I don't know if I would have made it through the long days without the entertainment and people here. I wish everyone the best and hope you are all successful in your ventures of working online.
Done did. They give you the chance to withdraw it all if your from the US. It showed up this morning already.
http://mturkforum.com/showthread.php?7007-Can-we-work-on-mturk-on-any-computer/page2 Now, see where that personal experience got you. I knew your bullshit was too deep. Your account got flagged for half-assing Goodjob .02 hits or running a bot and then guess what? Amazon took a good close look at your account and saw that you were submitting hits faster than one person humanly can. You are an idiot and mturk is better without scammers such as yourself working on it. Go find another platform to steal from. Because you are correct, amazon is twice as secure as ebay or paypal, and you will end up in jail eventually.
You speak to gossip my friend. I obided by TOS rules. TOS rules states nothing about turking on multiple computers not being allowed. And people are still doing it now. And others will always turk on multiple computers. But my friend, I don't plan to turk anymore. I don't care how many computers your allowed to Turk from, nor what the Mturk policies state anymore. Because I know longer Turk.
DO YOU NOT READ? You just posted a link, with multiple people telling you. You will not have a problem Turking from multiple computers. This is not why I was suspended, nor the reason why I was suspended. You've got 47 post of complete BS. Quit being hard headed, sit down, and listen sometime. I take it you were a problemsom child, that had trouble listening. You always knew it all right?
He's one of the 17 or 18 year old's voices I heard, while I was transcribing all them hits for Pirros. hehe
Good luck to you and in the short time I have been a member here I enjoyed your posts. I even got a good laugh out of all the debate you would cause.
I turk on three different computers with no issues... granted, I don't it on more than one, but between work and home I have three different PC's I turk from and have never had an issue.
