12/11 - Technicolor Tuesday!

It's still up, but it's quald' and even some people with the qual can't see them for some reason. It's a little weird

Rumor has it that HITs can be hidden from people without the qual.

OR it could be another bug.

 

[Despairagus]

oh weird. has anyone posted it? i'm curious.

It's def hidden, idk if that's a new thing or not. Weird thing is that people WITH the qual also can't see it (or at least a few people said so)

IIRC (and I could def be wrong), hidden batches were added with the worker redesign/last major update.

I'm probably wrong. Idk. Just happy not to have a migraine anymore.

No idea what's up with the people with the qual, unless they had it pulled. But, people without, I get that.
HIT Visibility isn't a rumor. It's been a thing for a pretty long time.

"HIT Visibility
If you’ve specified any criteria for your HIT you have the option of deciding it’s visibilty. For many Requesters is easiest just to leave the task marked Public but there are other options.

If your HIT is marked Public, any Worker can preview your task, even if they aren’t qualified. If you mark the task as Private, all Workers will see your task in the list of available work but only those Workers that have the required Qualification will be able to Preview the contents of the task. This is useful if you want to limit the number of Workers that can see the information in your tasks. Hidden is used to hide HITs from showing up in the list of available work unless the Worker has the required Qualifications."

PSA TIME:
This is why "Amazon Premium Qualifications"(Profile Quals) are so important. Having no answer(not done the profile qual) will return a '0', the same as a wrong demographic, hiding any HIT that a requester didn't want you to see. Some people don't do profile quals because they think it opens them up to the widest pool of available studies, until they screen out. This isn't entirely accurate.

Good luck and Happy Turking!

Is it a health & safety issue? Is it a quality issue? Nahh, I think it's good.

Glad you're feeling better. They suck
You are correct. They rolled out when beta went away, I think.
And, they obviously can hide non-batches but, I knew you meant that.

 

[Concise]

There are scripts to lower the amount of clicks in a HIT?

I can neither confirm or deny that. Although this forum has links and resources on AHK, programming languages, for many applications...

Yup. Whole lotta nuthin when I click on the link too

Ty, thankfully I was able to shut this one down in time.

I think hidden batches are shitty but there's not much we as workers can do about that other than keep qualing. Always be qualing. Qual qual qual. Etc.

since it's impossible to find qualification hits these days i'll just let it go and hope what's currently in my HF decides to catch at some point before my caffeine wears off.

Qual test is in the description @charlie. Don't know if the HIT is good but, TO isn't horrible.[/td][/tr]


EDIT That's how I find qual tests. I just go though all available HITs, look for the ones that I want to do but, am not qualified, then look to see if there's a test. It'll help you find some.
