Those 260 rejects brought me down to 99.4%, so I'll survive, but still.

Well that sounds like 2 rejections in my future then. Oh well. I'll still be at 99.9%.
You won't get rejected chief. I've been able to do more than 1 of their surveys in the past. I always try to accept a 2nd if the hit is somewhat decent.

I did 65 Hits for Eitan Hersh (still pending), I didn't submit any N/A's. I'm sitting here wondering how I'm about to go from 27 rejections to 92 in ONE DAY. It's instances like this one that I think about using the screen capture/print screen on my Mac more often. I use to do it with Riley, Research Project, and other Hits that I thought requesters would come back and just mass reject (and I feared I didn't have proof of submitting work that showed I did my best on.) Unfortunately, it takes a long time and it sucks that I feel I have to treat requesters like they ALL can't be trusted. I don't know how these Hits will turn up, but hoping for the best.

For future reference, that thread I started is still up. I haven't seen many post on it, but it is there:

Glad to hear that. I tend to plan for the worst and hope for the best though and worse case scenario was rejects, ya know?

Response from the requester. One stupid scammer ruins it for the rest, eh?
"The problem is that some workers are committing fraud. One worker did over 400 HITs yesterday and used a "random name generator" to enter false data. Of course, I rejected all that work. What do I do if a worker enters names for 20% of the entries but the data show they spent 5 seconds on each one? My solution has been to find workers who are doing sloppy/fraudulent work and reject all their work. But I hear your feedback and I will see what I can do to try to deal with different cases differently. But it's hard to do that in a big project."
