how fast can you guys do the readabl hits?

 

It is a good idea and I sent that to them earlier today before this. It's just one of several good ideas.

 

I agree with the qualification similar to what MedCrowd does and people have suggested it a million times and have sent e-mails to him/them about it but they seem like they aren't interested in doing that for whatever reason.

 

A quality test would suffice, or raising the req perhaps (as he did). The moral of this subforum is sharing

EDIT for IOW: I don't understand the 300 worker limit.

 

Grab it quick if you like these HITs, they tend to go fast:

Who made you king of mturk?

 

Rubin just posted a course info HIT which needed 1000 approved.

 

Lol... it's easy for Rubin to guarantee quality by requiring 5000 or 10,000. Don't complain just cause you don't have it... he's the one spending money on the HITs, he can require whatever he wants.

 

it normally only takes a couple of seconds. Once you start to type a company name a drop down menu pops up and you just click the correct company. It's the .05 ones that take forever.

 

"I support your decision in raising the qualification to 5,000 approval rate. If you are looking for quality results, I'd recommend not to ever make your HITs exclusive to a limited amount of people when you can simply add a qualification test or raise the approval rate (as you did). I'm sure you understand that it's important for both you and the workers for your HITs to be readily available to all workers who meet the criteria, not just a select amount.

I think this one may be messed up, but it made me giggle

 

Except for the fact that just because someone has taken the time to do 5000 Oscar HITs doesn't mean their work is better than someone who has 1,100 approved such as myself who takes the time to fill out the comment section on every Rubin HIT I do. I do good work and take every HIT I do seriously. 1,000 approved is enough. If anything, a qualification test would be the best quality control.

 

-.- let me guess u have 5000 hits

 

Yeah, usually there is a bit more variety hehe.

I am sure clients love the loads of emails "suggesting" how they go about getting quality workers when I'm sure thought they would (or should) be getting quality workers in the first place.
5000 and 99% is better then 1200 and 99%
Not to say they do better work but they have submitted more quality work
coming from someone that also 1,100 accepted hits and 99%

 

I agree on the quality test. [10 char]

 

I've never seen one of these available without the error message.
