And the crazy thing is I only sent 1 person an email during that time period so I'm pretty sure they reported my email

I've never seen this.

When did you get that?

 

[Timinator]

I guess I was just trying to see if amazon/mturk emailed that to you. I'm sure it's happened before (if it was them), but I've never heard of that before.

Yeah it makes me not want to email anyone else because I've emailed plenty of requesters before this stating that I didn't receive a code etc but I sent 1 to a person about something and then I get that email and I'm like wow...because in previous times, I sent a couple and when I send one and then receive that email, I was like oh snap. It's getting serious.

Someone send an email to a requester to see what happens.

When did you get that?

Dec 22

 

[lil queen trashmouth]

2.5 hours in on that sgutierrez

Holy crap what? Even the requester estimate is 2 hours max, that's insane

On average how many times do you message requesters in a week?

do you have copies of your email? I say this because it doesn't sound like you were insistent or impolite - and that means that the requester characterized your email as insistent and/or impolite.
I wonder if you should follow up (that's not advice, I have no idea) - but the requester might have left a bad impression about you............
hard to say what to do, though, because amazon doesn't communicate well with us.
and they can suspend anyone they want

I haven't sent any in a few weeks. I normally only send when I don't receive a code and it's been a while since I haven't received a code

 

[Jaded]

In any given week, not necessarily that week.

(I was gonna follow up with this question anyway, but I'm doing it now so I don't forget)

 

[Not A Robot]

Seriously?

Kicks 2 1/2 hour survey out of queue

Sorry everyone, my timer was being weird. I was 1.5 in, there are 4 tests, @30 minutes or so each. Took me about 2 hours. Sucked a bag of dicks and was not worth the time/effort in the slightest way.

i just saw a man with his penis inside of a dog on one of these hits omfg

I wonder if Requesting a Qualification is considered 'messaging via the mturk interface'? I know people who spam the Masters request, for instance.

It was about that they said I gave them the wrong code and I gave them a 5 digit code instead of a 6 digit code. I told them that there was no way I miswrote the survey code because...you know copy and paste and I am pretty efficient at double/triple checking myself before submitting and I asked maybe it was them giving me the wrong code/not enough characters and like I said I wrote that I would be writing a review and then I received that message the next day.

The Brothers Ryan are looking for work now. Maybe they should join up here and we can berate them on their handling of the Bills.

Yay, maybe Wolfman will return and bless us once again.

Side note, if any of you folks want to earn some extra cash - I'm fairly certain you could open a Men's (prolly Women's too) Big and Tall retail outlet anywhere in Ohio and be successful.

I don't have a copy of it because I sent it through the interface unless it's saved somewhere that I could access.

I told them that there was no way I miswrote the survey code because.

You're a human, there is a way.
