who is the picky person on percys?

Not me, I gave up on them. Too much variation and the people aren't expert at this.

What do you mean by picky?

I had someone who was just doing what it says DON'T SAY, and I left them, lol

from the Pinterest batch:

Thanks for your interest in this assignment. Unfortunately you failed a certain number of test questions over the past few assignments, so you won't be able to work on any more tasks in this group of assignments. You're not blocked from doing future work for us, but please be more careful with your responses moving forward.

damn, I didn't know they had test questions. I thought I was doing them right. Wish they would tell me what I got wrong.

Was this hit blank for anyone else? "Loading..." flashed when I clicked the link then nothing else happened.

Yep, emailed the requester and never got any response.

They do put certain pins scattered throughout the batch that have to be categorized correctly in order to continue

I don't know how I feel about Pinterest anymore. I sent them a message because I haven't been able to do do any of their hits recently. This is the message:

Thanks for reaching out! Looks like the test question you failed was pretty objective. This Pin example in our guidelines is close to what you got wrong: the Pin shows pasta, but not pasta salad.

Hope that helps. Thanks for working on our HITs!
The Pin Quality Team

I did one and I didn't have any questions about pasta. Even so, a person thinking pasta salad is relevant to pasta or vice versa seems pretty reasonable and shouldn't be a factor to determine a block or ban or whatever you want to call it. No help. Also, I'm salty that some people got to do $100 worth and I only got to do 2 because of this. Hopefully they can fix their system because it is hard to keep from getting a block. I'm going to say that a pin is asparagus even if the pin is fish and with asparagus because it still has an asparagus recipe in it, even if the search term isn't fish and asparagus because it makes senses and should be objective in that sense.

Actually, I did notice that in their instruction section tonight. I make sure to pay special attention to it lately since I was failing on the spammies. Nice that they put something together for us!

Whenever the post again, on another day.

I sent them an email and that is what I got back. I some blanket statement that kind of feels like they didn't put a lot of thought into it, so I'm not confident talking them here will be much more effective.
