Hmmm, i've heard some too... but also a lot of people who havn't had issues... i think i might contact mturk before hand just incase..
There's a thread by that Franklin guy if anyone is interested: http://mturkforum.com/showthread.php?4404-New-HITs-forthcoming!
You need to install quicktime then restart your browser and also make sure the quicktime plugin is enagbled, it's under tools on your browser. If you're getting an error about a plugin that's what it is. I had a freaky problem that was resolved after I updated my java. Now, if your problem is the submit button not working, switch browsers, firefox and IE8 (NOT IE9) are working fine. Chrome also was confirmed as not working but if it is working now they must be resolving some of their problems, they said the browser issues were all under review.
I've been on Mturk since February and I usually only do surveys, because they pay pretty good, but I feel like on nights like this when I've done every high paying survey up I need some other hits to do. Does anyone have any suggestions? I have a 99.4% approval rating and I've had 4432 hits approved.
When things are slow, I usually search by hits that I am qualified for. Then sort the hits by NEWEST CREATED. That way, when a good batch or decent paying one comes up, you can nab it first. I used to sort by highest rewards, but all that is complete crap and never changes. Usually. Oh and one last thing...
$1.00 THE PHOTO-SORTING TASK- PARIS (10 min clock) https://www.mturk.com/mturk/preview?groupId=2593XERSQV66WLMMJQUH3WAXNND19U TO seems okay, but timer is too short.
$2.00 Interviewing People Who Have Lost a Loved One no TO https://www.mturk.com/mturk/preview?groupId=2L72OHOVR14I5K6HK7THMCWC85C65L
$4.20 Simple And Fun Hit For TV Show Watchers no TO https://www.mturk.com/mturk/preview?groupId=2WSQHPTTQ40FMYEOHF8EKWA808Z67L EDIT: scratch that, 10 min clock. no way it's legit.
This one is a scam I have seen it reposted at least 10 times in the two or so weeks I have been turking. With bad TO the times I saw it. That Along with make a dating profile
Mainly the cell hits from this morning. 972 of the them. Never was able to get the franklin hits to work.
Ok now im freaking out because I finally got it to work in Chrome and it keeps saying "Please make sure you have entered the digits correctly" whenever I submit it. Should I be worried??
So no worries, last batch I had around 2000 HITs approved from him, and I know I made some mistakes. I even admitted it to him before they got approved lol :rolleyes:
