I mean, they're not amazing, but you can probably do 3+ a minute and there's no writing, so... I don't get what everyone is so upset about. Did they drop the pay?

They just make you want to rip out your own throat.

Because those don't matter. He should be filtering those out with a script beforehand, really. But false positives and false negatives on the ones with numbers are probably way too high. Like double digit percentage I bet.
Ugh. Well hopefully we all don't get screwed just because someone's spamming. The tone in the emails today has had me paranoid even about hits in the batch I was 100% confident on. :|

If he means rejecting the incorrect ones, it doesn't matter at all. If you're that worried, email him and tell him to just remove the quals from people with unusually high error rates.

Me too. I did them for a min or two between hits earlier but now I'm skeptical about doing too many

Oh thank god it's not just me getting those emails. I've been reading them like "all these examples are helpful... but I'm pretty sure I haven't missed anything obvious." I mean, considering how many of the hits don't even have earnings numbers listed, let alone the correct ones, I don't know how overall accuracy could be horrible.
LOL yeah I was worried at first, until I realized he was sending out blanket emails to all of us.

If 95% of the HITs weren't irrelevant, they wouldn't be worth doing at all for $0.02 per.

Right, but if he filtered out the garbage 95% he could pay 20x more for each remaining one (at the same total cost per total records completed) and then people would read them.

Yeah, he could do that. I sent him some suggestions for increasing efficiency and accuracy, and I'm sure other people did too. Just have to see what (if anything) he implements.
