All right. I have a delicate question. It seems to me that HIT's with requesters with Oriental sounding names are the most problematic, most rejected & lowest paying. I'm not trying to be offensive at all. Just trying to find out what the problem may be, if there is one. Thanks.

I have no idea where requesters that reject are located. TBH, mostly I use turker view or TO to figure out what hits to accept or not.

Have you installed any scripts yet? That's really your best bet

If anyone has a suggestion - for a good button site - lmk. I'm sick of looking

Yes, I have them installed, and that is what I've noticed over my short time Turking. Maybe there isn't a reason for why they are like that. I was just hoping someone might have some ideas, or even better, a way to block those type of hits.

Go to thrift stores, look at sweaters and coats that have buttons - buy, remove buttons. Buttons are SO expensive.

It's a slog, but Amazon has some nice buttons, for example

I was in there last time I was button shopping and was really disappointed (and then went to a knitting shop, got beautiful buttons for 27.00
There's a woman online whose youtube channel I watch and she describes a WALL of buttons (they all come in these tiny see through cylinders - floor to ceiling) in her city.

The knitting store had - maybe - 20 choices. And so expensive

 

[Charlene22]

Aww, I haven't gone in there in a long time. Was one of my mom's favorite places. I hate that they've raised their prices so much!
