Rubbing salt into the wound further, I won't even get many Z's...since they appear to have stopped already (31 accepted today)

Ya I finally got a few after like 10 minutes of tumbleweeds.

It's the over use of frames for a website in 2016.

Good morning everyone. I'm glad I stayed in bed, I can now mark it as a protest sleep in honour of @PeachyRider's block

Woke up this morning to this from ROC-NLP Research.

Status :Rejected Feedback : There is too little happening in the story. The instruction states that stories without a different event in the middle such as “Today I made pasta. I first boiled the water. Then added the pasta to the boiling water. Afterwards I added salt and pepper. It was yummy!” is not accepted. A suitable story would be “Today I wanted to make pasta. However, I was out of tomato sauce. So, I asked my neighbor if he had any extra. He did and offered me some. I ended up making a great plate of pasta”.

What does that even mean? I double checked the few stories that I did to make sure they followed the instructions before submitting. Furthermore, with that vague feedback, I have no idea which story title was rejected. Previously, they rejected one of my stories but they gave me the title of the story and explained why it was rejected.

Like I said, I only did a few of these so I think I will be okay. However, I feel bad for people that did a lot of these hits and are receiving this vague rejection. I know that they were giving @Princess Gina Marie a lot of trouble.

It's just sad to see another requester go down the Mturk toilet. This hit was good to do if you are a creative person or there wasn't anything else to work on at that time.

My guess is that since this is higher paying batch than previously, (increased by a whole nickel), they feel that they can reject you more.
It also appears that their TO is starting to take a hit and will probably continue to do so if they continue to give out these vague rejections.

I probably won't do anymore of these hits. It's too much of a gamble and I'm not a great storyteller anyway.

TL;DR: ROC-NLP Research is now apparently rejecting our work with vague rejections for their nickel-increased hits.

Yep, @Princess Gina Marie has been suffering the slowest rejections ever from these guys with equally ridiculous reasoning. IIRC they're STILL trickling through for her!

I vote against it, and that we introduce a Hate button instead.

that's a really good idea. There is not nearly enough drama for the admins. Pleco has an alert. Probablynot Riss Hates your post. What could possibly go wrong?

For my jobs and it's my career etc I do

Referral Aggregator

• 
  1" class="ng-scope" style="padding-left: 20px; margin: 0px;">
• Gathers and refers potential customers to other businesses that offer goods, services, or both.
• Different from a retailer because buyers do not transact directly with this business. To purchase the product or service, buyers must go to another business.
• Often provides information, comparison, quotes, rates, appraisals or reviews about products or services.
• Often allow a buyer to search or browse based on categories or location.

Services: 1-800 Dentist, Kayak

Both: Yelp, NerdWallet, Wirefly

Since it's not really a search engine, but you can search and it will give you a bunch of results matching your search. Plus is category and/or location based.

I'm sure arguments could be made for all the other options as well, I hope I'm not going to get the block.

[Kessikitty]

@scout is a hero thank you for posting all these hits

 

[catnapped]

So did Z's stop coming in for everyone or just me?

136/143 and dribbling. Should've been capping soon by now

 

[Peachy]

I'm really bummed out now. Yeah a lot of people complain about Zs. However, this literally cuts 300-500$ projected dollars (assuming they post everyday) off my projected monthly earnings.

I don't think I've felt this bad about anything Turk related in my time turking. Combine that with stuff that happened to me last night and I may need to find a shitty office job.

This coming off a $131 day yesterday
