My husband signed up for mturk over a year ago, but has only worked a handful of times. He's turking today and got halted at 100 hits ... so it's your first 10 days of actual *working*, not your first 10 calendar days of being signed up for mturk?

Was just going to post this tweet of theirs:

"If you do Mturk HITs for us and like it please spread the word. Too many expiring HITs and may have to insource work soon. #Amazon"

Good requesters don't have many hits expire. Maybe they should think about that.
Tweeting to them now. They are not nice people.

LowCalCalzone @LowCalCalzone My rejection for that $4 survey from yesterday got reversed. Hopefully yours did too!
Aw snap really? I got a reply but no reversal :(

Basically just told me "We rejected you cause you went too fast blah blah the required time is 20 minutes blah"

I just saw the exchange. What gets me about these people is that their demeanor makes them sound like...hm...I'm speaking poorly of a requester where anyone can see it so I'll refrain from using the word I was going to use...but like they just don't care about the workers or workers' suggestions. Very defensive replies to people, and condescending tweets.

I think they should be thrilled that they get 98.9% good work. They are treating all workers poorly due to the shoddy work of 1.1% of workers.
