If you're just starting out 10/min is okay, but kind of unacceptable after a little while. Those were the guidelines from like 2005 something something something federal minimum wage is higher now. I'd focus on getting to 5k as soon as possible so you can try to find work that pays better than that

Some days I feel like my page requests have been lowered since Mturk has started it's improvements, not even running Turkmaster or Hitscraper and I'm getting refresh requests just doing hits one by one from my queue.

I have nothing useful to add to this. I just want more people to see it.

They are going to have to hit the "show ignored posts" at the bottom of the page for that

Are you running any scripts, like Discover Fake Availabilities, the old Expanded Header Info, or Ghost HIT Buster? Those can be hell on page requests.

I'm really having a hard time boosting my pay above $15 a day right now but I just got 100 accepted hits. So I'm assuming it goes up quite a bit after 1000 and 5000 milestones. Hard time finding quick, easy batches to boost my counts though.

Queue order fix is also request heavy if you're using it a lot. I try to avoid it as much as possible.
