That's a scary letter. Have you done anything different lately?

wait...I went over 1 million hits completed a few days ago. I wondered in the weeks leading up to that if that would put me on a watch list at mturk for an unusual account. within days after going over a million submitted hits, I get this email.

I don't think that's it.

@turker have you had any blocks recently? Or maybe a change in address?

no, no blocks that I am aware of, no account changes.

edit: checked my spam folder too just to make sure.

last few days I did hotel photos and thousands of these in I would guess 5 different batches. iirc I didn't do any other hits in the last 48 hours, maybe 72 hours. except about 150 pds_pn1's last night. I've done all these hits before, a lot of them. the only difference is the large number of the hits from amazon.

Newegg is running a Presidents Day sale. There are a couple pretty good deals on the site if you look around a little. Just putting it out there in case anyone is considering computer stuffs.
These headphones are pretty cool too.
https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826138190&ignorebbr=1
Extra promo code on site gives an additional $10 off the sale price.

In my opinion, the nonprofit organization's followers wish they hadn't not had a relationship with this organization.

Wtf does that even mean?

I probably won't be able to carry a mini stun gun in my carry on, will I?

Stick it in checked luggage and it'll be fine. Unless you're going carry on only

It probably depends on what it looks like. Get one of those that looks like a flashlight and you will be good to go, maybe.

This is just a wild guess.... Any chance that this would stem from being logged into the www.mturk.com and worker.mturk.com at the same time via different browsers?
