Careful with how you are doing the Brian Z's, a lot of reports of blocks have been circulating the forums.

It looks like there are 2 gold questions per hit, but I cant tell for certain if that is whats causing the blocks.

How do you actually know if you've been blocked by a requestor?

If you use Panda Crazy the panda will turn purple if you don't have the qual (qual blocked which is what blocks appear as now.) The purples ones are sometimes a glitch though so always refresh first.

Well, it will look like you are qualified for the hit but when you accept it it will tell you that the requester has qualifications that you do not possess, like the block lol.

It won't say qualifications, it'll actually say you're blocked.

It won't say qualifications, it'll actually say you're blocked.

It doesn't seem to say that anymore, unfortunately.

Wellwhen did that happen? That's dumb as heck.

I'll be careful if I can manage to catch more than one today.

 

[coffeeowl]

Wills used to block people and give warnings in the HITs. These are the next version of those so I'm not surprised people are getting blocks. It is normal for them.

Pretty sure it happened when the site switched over.

 

[Pippa]

Can’t really see how you would mess up on the Brian’s except for carelessness, but this is mturk so who knows

can't chance losing that masters, blessing and a curse

 

[aveline]

Wellwhen did that happen? That's dumb as heck.

I'm not sure if it started when everything switched over to the new site or not. I only found out about it like a week or two ago. I guess requesters finally convinced Amazon that they were tired of angry emails every time they blocked someone.

I need to finish signing up. I always forget about it until someone on here mentions it. I remember when I initially tried it kept stalling on me and locking up so I never finished the sign up process.

its worth your while. the tests come slow at first. just keep ut open in the backgroud while you turk. the more good ratings for the tests u do, the more tests you will get

Well that's dumb and I don't like it.

Wait a minute Brian Z blocked some people?

 

[Pippa]

They haven’t posted in a while so how could people tell if they’re blocked anyways?

 

[electrolyte]

Wait a minute Brian Z blocked some people?

@SleepComa said someone on another forum said that, so maybe take it with a grain of salt?
