Told me in email these are fixed?

The 20 second wait in the beginning is annoying

I haven't received a response from them, yet, but two things have happened recently:

1. I moved to a new state the week before last and actually just updated my address last week. This was after several months of inactivity.
2. I put up a $40 HIT for someone on Tuesday evening (Nothing crazy about the HIT. I actually re-used a template from one of my older HITs) and on Wednesday, both my account and the account of the person that did my HIT were suspended.

If I had to guess, I would think the long period of inactivity followed by a high dollar HIT being posted from a different state triggered some sort of fraud alarm, or something. It's the only thing that I could think of that would lead to the other person being suspended. If they just wanted to verify my new address, they wouldn't have suspended that person. Just me. And if my HIT violated the TOS for requesters in some way, I don't think they would suspend the person that did the HIT, too (isn't that a frightening thought?) Some sort of suspected fraud is the only thing that I could think of.

That is so strange that the person who did the hit also got suspended. I certainly hope they respond to you soon and it all gets worked out. Hang in there

I am enjoying them.
Not an amazing hourly, but nice.

I really hope they keep these coming - I like them too!

Yeah, and I feel absolutely horrible about it, too. Not only did I get myself suspended, I took someone with me. :oops:

It clashes so bad with the rest of the color scheme. I feel uneasy when I look at it. Maybe that was their intention

No thanks mTurk,

That was meant for the comment you commented on LOL

Well if they made it into a HIT for $1.00 you wouldn't mind so much

I think they're trying to make a point. Soon they'll roll out a new slogan, " Welcome To The New Worker Site, Because You Don't Have A Choice About It".

My guess would be they went over the hits you did months ago or they were pulling inactive quals.

Just a few minutes ago
