Where are you seeing the example that has a statement without a question mark?

Am I literally blind or not seeing that Example Completed Task in the screenshot of the instructions I pasted?

Bad instructions are a plague on mturk. Every requester needs to consult @Blue before posting any work worth more than $100.

It's on the regular non-review HITs.

I haven't done those. I'm following the instructions on the HIT I'm doing...

Your task is to first come up with a realistic Question that you would respond to either the text or the email with and then create Answer that the system could respond with that would convince you to follow the instructions given by the support bot. Write 5 of these possible interactions.

• NOTE: the questions can be anything including inquisitive, suspicious, dismissive and aggressive.
• The answers must be polite yet persistent to guide the the user to take action.

"Isn't it your responsibility to protect my account?"

"Not if someone else has your password"

This made me laugh for some reason.

No, it's not. On the HITs I'm doing, the submitted questions/answers are under the part I posted. I posted the full set of instructions I'm seeing.

RE sites:
I'm following this pretty closely, and though i realize it does say question 1, quesion 2, etc. but as someone says, the 1st of the 2 examples:

• Question 1: I don't have a SocialTech account

I just got a rejection saying none of my answers/questions are usable. I make sure the spelling, etc as requested is correct, All I can figure is that I used statements reflecting the example for this hit and not actual questions, which seems to me would be correct. Please be aware, thanks.

 

[Kerek]

I haven't done those. I'm following the instructions on the HIT I'm doing...

I agree but I'd also stop marking relevant problem-expressing statements as wrong.

Those are the instructions from the HIT with the writing task. I'm doing the review task which does not include those examples.

 

[Kuddish]

Did 3 Or those Eric hits. All paid. Can't complain. Easily boring though.

You did write that one off the wall question earlier didn't you?

you can pretty much add a question mark and they are questions in the colloquial sense

Yes, there are no examples on the review task. This could cause a problem in consistency, they should be the same instructions.

I'll email him. Expecting people to know and follow instructions from a different HIT that I'm not even doing is pretty dumb, if that's what he's wanting.

Absolutely.

 

[mypaperheart]

No, it's not. On the HITs I'm doing, the submitted questions/answers are under the part I posted. I posted the full set of instructions I'm seeing.

I see now. The examples in the HITs we're doing say we don't need to use a question mark, so if they're reasonable responses they should be approved/acceptable.
