I wasn't aware that they actually ever remove it. Though there are alot of specifics I am not particularly aware of. I mean I could see if there were a good bit of change in rejection rate or whatnot. Otherwise I had always just assumed once you got it you got it.
the conclusion i had was I messed up on a Amazon Tax Engines batch in January. because right after the batch ended I (and a couple other Turkers that I know) got a masters warning email. Then a month later to the day got masters removed. I asked mturk support if me making some errors on the batch was the reason why (I and others lost masters), but they didn’t say directly. they just replied with a generic copy and paste email.
Blocks, my man. Blocks. That's why we were talking about them yesterday. Requesters can screw your world with a click. Occasionally, they can even do it on a whim or by accident. Blocks and internal metrics(based on performance on Amazon HITs(imo), and other secrets) can cause you to lose Masters. But, 2 or 3 Blocks in a short time and I'm pretty sure you'd lose it. Once again though, this is all supposition without confirmation from the powers that be.
EDIT Like I said, Metrics on Amazon HITs. This is an example of why I think that people in non A9 states have a harder time getting Masters, imo. Don't want to argue it though. I don't feel strongly enough about it to care.
Yeah, yeah, that's what I meant. definitely.
Yeah based on scripted email response I'd assume the same thing, I have never actually done any of the amazon batches. I've always mostly done one pops which sort of explains why my hit count seems seriously low in comparison to some at 5.4k approved. I had stuck to mostly higher nominal value hits when I first started and have mostly stuck with that, though I have done batches for requesters like Noah, Andreas Vesalius and MERLAMT. I've seen some of the weekly summary posts on here before with up to 4k hits completed and I just don't even understand how I would complete that many in a week.

3800(~max HITs) A9's in a day is possible. Do that a couple times in a week and the HIT count goes up pretty quickly.
you could be right about non A9 states having tougher times geting Masters. it’s still all guesswork at the end of the day though. nothing is ever black and white with mTurk and masters. it sucks but is what it isBlocks, my man.

An Amazon Requester Inc batch HIT. Usually categorizing photos of products on Amazon. They take a few seconds and pay a few pennies.
I use to cry as I watched the numbers for people with the state qual. I live 6 blocks from a state that could do them. Maybe it helped me to have to do other things to get a little better at turking. I have never done one even though I am now allowed.3800(~max HITs) A9's in a day is possible. Do that a couple times in a week and the HIT count goes up pretty quickly.
Yup.
Sounds like all kinds of strange stuff would pop up, definitely quite a bit of odd things in the warehouse anyway. I worked there for a short bit when I moved back here from PA, helped to make the nights at least semi interesting though.
can I have some kinetic sand too?Favorite gift of 5 year old grand daughter. Hatchimal, Pomsies or All the other name junk she got. NO!! Favorite thing was National Geographic Kinetic Sand kit for Dinosaurs and Hotel Transylvania DVD set. Grown kids are playing with it too. Grandma won.

My buddy got his kid some kenetic sand...worst mistake he ever made, his house is literally 50% carpet 50% kinetic sand now.
At least its soft, better than stepping on legos.
