GroveRidge @GroveRidge
Take a look uptread. You're not the only one. :(
To reiterate what I posted under the OP for GroveRidge @GroveRidge and everyone in here, Looks like it's happening to everyone. It's a pretty subjective HIT. Not sure what the TO was but, I wouldn't have gotten too deep into them. Was it an untested requester? Never to more, with a new requester, than you are ready to have rejected. They can mass reject for no reason and there isn't a ton of recourse. Sorry y'all.:(

AMT has never reversed a rejection as far as I know
They have done single HITs, as far as I know. They've reversed a single for me when the requester couldn't figure it out, in a 3 way email convo with AMT. AMT had to handle the reversal so, I know they have the ability to reverse singe rejections. Not sure what the policy is on mass rejections, I guess. I don't get them.

The TURKOPTICON REVIEWS WERE NOT INITIALLY BAD, JUST BAD PAY.
I just pm'ed you about who it might be (just googled him)

If there is an IRB or someone who works with him.....you could also try them.
(that's if I got the right guy. you'd need to explore it a bit more :)

yea, that's a little different, what I meant was if the requester rejects and wants to keep it a rejection, AMT isn't going to over rule them

I'd say you're probably right, but AMT is nothing, if not consistently inconsistent. I know they wouldn't reverse the whole batch but, you get the right rep and I bet you could get 7 flipped. Really depends on the situation so, I don't feel there's enough transparency in the policy for me to accurately speculate. I know that generally they side with where the money comes from.(requesters)

Haven't tried. There was a thread in the wrong spot, that may have messed with things. What's the message say? Is the HIT already posted recently?

"7 questions for 2 pennies -- don't do these HITs" sounds like a bad review to me... :p
I attempted ONE of those hits. It was more information for .02 than what I thought was for fair compensation, so out of APPROXIMATELY 100k thousand hits I did but ONE.

The hit I did 7 of were posted the next day. The number of questions was reduced to just one, and there were only 3 choices to choose from. I still thought it was not a fair compensation for the amount of work being done, so I attempted only 7.

But you are right. Bad REVIEWS are BAD reviews, and we should not work for the BAD makers of the HITS
