10/30 - Wicked Wednesday!

[C to the J]

turkers be like yo check out this fire batch where hundreds of people can see

then wonder why it's gone in 10 seconds next time

Things like HitNotifier made it an even bigger no-no.

I don't like PE posts

Unless people detail how they get there.

But some people do find them motivational, which is something I've never really understood personally but have come to accept. I made a poll (in a HIT) once asking if people liked PE posts and like 66% said yes.

This was at a time where the way people were posting them was a lot more spammy though. Several updates throughout the day from several people.

PE posts are the reason I'm able to make money on mturk. If someone has a high PE, I like to hit them up through PM and ask about their methods of turking and requesters they work for.

Most people are pretty nice about it, except for @C to the J , who asks for pics of my toenails in exchange for secret batches.

PE: 0.33
How I got there: One 3 cent hit, two 10 cent hits, one 5 cent hit, and one 5 cent bonus. I agree that it is cooler when people mention even generally how they got to the amount. Although mine just now is more motivational I am sure.

I honestly don't worry too much about sharing a public batch because that will get picked up on quickly anyway.

But people who just can't stay quiet about a new good qual are shooting themselves in the foot. And then the kneecap.

Back when I first started turking, seeing that people could make more than $5/day really helped.

same!

I generally do my PE, because if i can make $20-30/day, almost anyone can, because i'm also doing approx 800 other things a day too.

yes!!!

In 2014 I came to mturk from clixsense where i made 2-3 dollars an hour. I saw someone complaining on the forum about 6 dollars an hour on mturk and i was like holy shit how can i make 6 dollars an hour?

In general i feel like communication helps us all do better and raise the general standards of what the mturk community sees as "good money"

I don't even see anyone talking about 6 bucks an hour being good anymore after it was the standard of a "good hit" for soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo long.

and thats why I'll keep bringing up usertesting until they pry this mtc account from my cold dead hands. 40 bucks an hour people! no skills needed! lol

This poll needs a middle option. I'm torn on this. I'm usually not a fan because it often just frustrates me, but I do like seeing when people are excited about having great days.

if this were 2 years ago i'd say it needs a 4th option for narcissists that get off on seeing PEs lower than them
