@electrolyte, I think I figured out how to finally get them to stop saying it!

Shit posting?

What do you do if you can't see something? I can't see a logo and I'm supposed to answer questions about it. Do I just let the researcher know at the end of the study?

Did you just start the HIT? Return it and send an email to the requester (if you're feeling generous.)

Have you already spent a significant amount of time on the HIT? Skip the question and leave a comment/send email.

You could, or you could return it. If it's something low paying, I'd just return it.

I did the sound portion fine and the logo didn't show up on the questions. There was no place to leave a comment so i'll send an email.

Yeah, that sounds like a TOS problem. For reference, this list from MTurk has some examples: https://www.mturk.com/mturk/help?helpPage=policies

In particular, the review HIT you're talking about sounds like it could be a few of these:

What are some specific examples of HITs that violate Amazon Mechanical Turk policies?
- HITs that directly or indirectly promote a site, service, or opinion
- HITs that violate the terms and conditions of an activity or website (for instance asking Workers to vote for something)
- HITs that generate "referred" site visits or click-through traffic
- HITs that ask Workers to take action to manipulate a website's behavior or results

That certainly is it. Not quite sure how I am supposed to report it though.

It does help often to try another browser first, as well. Just in case.Depends on how much the hit is worth and your time is worth to you
