good lord I can still conjure up how they smelled

Alexandria is going to have to go up another 3 or 4 times, before those hits become even plausible.

 

[stuffalleysays]

What I have so far for Rose CMU is don't copy and paste anything, even if you are doing so to edit the hit. I only had one rejection out of all of them that I did. I had copied it to word, edited the text and ran a grammar/spell check and then pasted it back in. This was for one of the page long hits. Evidentally that triggers something. She was getting many hits that were simply the same exact review copied and pasted, and they were being completed lightening fast. It is really sad that a new requester shows up and has at least decent pay (short hits balancing the long hits, and some money is better than none) this is the greating that the requester gets.

She should honestly hard block anyone who did that and is trying to scam the HITS IMO. The time and effort wasted by having to go through thousands of submissions is insane, we should all know better. I'm not saying anyone here did this, but if someone lurking is guilty of this, please, go away. Other than that there was an issue with people still using first person tone which is the entire point of the HIT, to change it from 1st person to second or third, depending on the content.

Alexandria just doubled their pay, its semi worth it now.

I just noticed I haven't seen any of those annoying ExtSurvey or whatever they were. You know, the ones that posted 1000X daily and NO ONE could ever finish one. Ok, I don't know of anyone. Glad they are gone.

Ugh. Missed the Sergey batch while I was busy wrangling toddlers.

Scratch that, still not worth it.

Not a bad day. Somewhere around $35. But, I have a worry about one of the jobs I have never done before: Virtual Worker job description. Paid well enough to try it, but worried I may get rejected because my description wasn't quite what they were looking for. I saw both positive and negative on TO. Anyone in here do work for them?

I bought some mead. It's not as good as the one I got last time It's not as sweet. (Probably why my mom likes it.)

Now I wanna look up how to make mead though.

edit: Also I have literally nothing to do here w/out my computer except browser stuff so...

This sounds like a surefire method to encourage cherry-picking, and also to discourage those who come to a batch late, where the only available hits are long af. Pay for these ranged from good to piss-poor, and that's with copying and pasting all of them. (2/52 rejected.)

edit: Here's belated feedback on one of my rejections, which has nothing to do with copy/paste and rather concerns a question of style not entirely clarified by the examples:

The paragraph should sound like a recommendation/suggestion, not like a prophecy. "You might have the bad fortune to be seated next to a loud, just married guy who thinks he's at a club and an older woman who's wearing your mom's cologne on..."

I did do that. Just nervous it's not up to snuff. I do notice those hits are gone as soon as they come up usually, so I was hoping that's a good sign.

As long as you didn't copy and paste verbatim, you will probably be fine.
