We have made a list of requestors who are great, who offer good work and pay well. Now why don't we make a list of those who offer crumbs for loads of work? I hope you all will add a name in this section. I have come across this hit and found the work to be too much for its reward. "Head Aspect Labeling" by Will. What is your opinion? Does this hit belong here?
This one surely belongs here. Well, if I begin to name such Requesters, there will be very few left. We all know that most of the Requesters don't pay enough as compared to the task given. Yet I may consider putting up a list of such Requesters if Shego is willing to post a HIT for me giving at least $0.50 per Requester
Pink Hippo Vicalla mtlabel Videojug To name a few off the top fo my head JF, I'll give you guys a head up next time
Vicalla is one to avoid? Isn't that the one offering a penny to befriend her/him on myspace and a few other places?
No. I can't remember what exactly. Something to do with medical or something. Anyway, regardless of what the hit entails; nobody should work for that pay if they have to visit another website
Adam Kapelner "Adam Kapelner" is one that I will be avoiding. His HIT on identifying English teachers was easy enough to do. I did two of them to test the water. The first one he failed with the comment "this could not be an english teacher". We can all make mistakes; however, I was being careful and I know that everyone I identified was an english teacher. I emailed him for an explanation and have never received a response. The text in his HIT was somewhat threatening about what he'd do if the information provided was bad. That was my red flag and why I only did two to test it out.
Well when nobody touches it, she'll either have to raise the stakes are go somewhere else. I had to take a break from chastising cheapskates. It was giving me carpal tunnel syndrom
I may be wrong, but if nobody works on these hits that only pay a penny they may raise the stakes a little. I know I was doing them, then realized that they are really not worth my time. Most of these hits involved too much time and have far too much criteria to meet for a penny. I avoid them now and hoping to see more fair pay increases coming soon!!
Once in a while a requester will take the hint when their hits remain stagnate. Most wait it out until a newbie comes along and does them without realizing the pay isn't equal to the time involved. I made that mistake also when I was new. Now I'm really picky about what I accept. I need to make at least a few dollars or more per hour before I'll work.
His name is already present in the requestors thread, others have reported the same problem with this requestor. Good that you have put it here, as new turkers do not bother to go through all the threads, but they will have a look at this and avoid working for him.
Here's one to avoid: Joe Flockhart. He asked for ideas of what to name his Hugging booth. I gave about 8 variety of ideas. He rejected me saying, "not just about Hugging". That's just plain mean.
accept his hit again and offer up the name for his booth to be ' Scamming Booth' edit: sorry don't do that...doubt the guy would get it anyhow...
