Seriously it has been WEEKS now and no HITs from KJ Ross. What is going on?! Anyone know? Does anyone know how to contact KJ?? At least to just ask if they plan on posting any more work!?? So that me and whoever else was a regular can stop wondering if there is going to be any future work posted!?? Please assist!! Really wanting to get back on and earn some cash!! And if not then find another poster that I was able to earn a lot on. [frustrated]
Sorry to hear of your frustration. I enjoyed his HITs too. I don't know what happened. These are the thoughts I have, though. With his two classes of HITs and his effort in developing new ones, he was all in, so I figure he looked at what he was doing and decided it wasn't worth his time for some reason. Since he was so communicative here, I have been assuming that if he stopped using Turk, it wasn't an accident, whether his reasoning was personal or business related. Also, I remember him being pretty irked that Turkers would use TurkOpticon to bash requesters, as he saw it. So although I hope it isn't the case, I wonder if he just got fed up with things being said. No one appreciates being badmouthed, and considering the effort he was making, he probably felt it was unwarranted and abusive.
TO doesn't seem to be any different than any other internet forum for grading businesses, which is in effect what requesters are. I think there have been lawsuits where businesses have prosecuted people who posted negative posts about them for libel. I think these have generally been thrown out because the standard is pretty high. This is not to say that he doesn't have every right to be irked by TO and to take his business elsewhere.
