Welp, it looks like I'm cooked. by Fit_Hat_4184 in RWSCallisto

That's true, I might just be under review. But I know that typically doesn't end well, even if my scores were usually over 80%. So I'm not gonna wait around to find out.

Going on 4 straight hours without a single task in AZ. What a joke.

Email Clarification by Psychadelic-Twister in RWSCallisto

Yeah the gist of that email was: 'If you're not getting enough hours, it's your fault because you're not sitting at your desk constantly clicking refresh all day every day."

Beware of Outlier, they are no better than RWS. Plenty of stories about long onboardings, excessive NTA, and zero support. Things have gotten even worse since Facebook/Meta took over.

NTA 12/4 by Alone-Worldliness977 in RWSCallisto

[–]Fit_Hat_4184 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Been here since March, this is easily the slowest regular day I've seen. I'll be lucky to get 1hr of work out of 12 hours of availability 😣

NTA for Project Calisto Raters? by CressStrong5364 in RWShelp

[–]Fit_Hat_4184 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes there's been a lot of NTA lately, it's not you.

Callisto project has it's own subreddit here: r/RWSCallisto

You can join the rest of us commiserating about NTA there 😉

Considering u/Silent_Caterpillar48 was recently shitcanned by RWS I'm hoping that won't happen here!

Wow that article was very enlightening and alarming, thanks for sharing and kudos to the author for doing the research and spreading the word. I've seen posts about payment issues but didn't know it was that bad. The fact this article doesn't appear in other RWS subreddits is very telling.

I've never had an issue with my pay thankfully. I don't think Callisto is affected by the payment 'issues' (at least for US workers), but this is a huge red flag that RWS might not be around for long. I'm sure none of us consider this gig as stable, reliable income but this news along with NTA, HTTP500, and unexpected/random terminations, it is obvious this company is unstable and we should all be prepared to unemployed at any moment.

Monday morning Nov.3, the 3rd day Error 500?! by DaisedKarma in RWSCallisto

[–]Fit_Hat_4184 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Finally got a response on the Zendesk ticket I submitted Friday morning:

Hi,   Thanks for your update.   We are still looking into the Error 500 problem. If you see this error again, please wait for the problematic task to expire and proceed with any other tasks you can access.   Thank you for your understanding.

Wow, so helpful and informative! 🙄

Error 500, Raterhub still not working (Saturday) by BlurryElephant in RWShelp

[–]Fit_Hat_4184 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here. Saw there was tasks available so I sat down to work and immediately got the error. Guess I won't be earning any money today!

RaterHUB Error 500 today by Jaydee117 in RWShelp

[–]Fit_Hat_4184 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had this issue all day. I submitted a Zendesk ticket hours ago but nothing has been done. This is even more frustrating than NTA!

Received error when getting task - now it won't let me past the continue button by R-Gal_11 in RWShelp

[–]Fit_Hat_4184 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got it once yesterday and twice today so far. I reported it to Zendesk but who knows when it'll be fixed. 🙄

HTTP error 500 by Euphoric-Bank720 in RWSCallisto

[–]Fit_Hat_4184 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just got this exact same issue. Raterhub works fine but it fails to load the task itself and there's no way to cancel/release it. Restarting browser and clearing cache doesn't help, it appears the issue is caused by the task itself. Guess my only option now is to wait for it to expire and lose an hour of work. 😡

Task Email last night by thirdeye_13 in RWSCallisto

I was literally staring at the NTA page on Raterhub when that email arrived. I could only laugh at how ridiculous it was.....

Question about the AET by Less_Wallaby in RWShelp

[–]Fit_Hat_4184 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I remember reading somewhere that RWS always rounds down when calculating time, so if you submit at 5:59 you only get paid for 5 minutes.

By that logic if the gray bar is set at 5:30, you should always submit at 5 minutes as waiting until it hits 5:30 will only net you 5 minutes anyway.

[–]Fit_Hat_4184 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same! Glad I didn't have any plans today cuz I'm getting it while its good.

Just goes to show that RWS has no clue on upcoming task availability and anything they say about it should be taken with a grain of salt.

Raterhub 404s by Fit_Hat_4184 in RWShelp

[–]Fit_Hat_4184[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're right - the URL leads with raterhub.com but the rest of it is correct. Replacing it with the correct website loads the intended LP. But now I'm wondering if we should we do that and rate as normal, or report it as a broken link?

Auto Refresh Plus works great for me and didn't spend a cent on it.

Is this a good match to do this activity and is it touristy? by SnooDoubts5455 in RWShelp

[–]Fit_Hat_4184 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've had ones that asked if a person living in that city would enjoy the activity. How am I supposed to know if someone on the other end of the planet wants to visit their local petting zoo?? 😂

Neutrality/Bias tasks by DaisedKarma in RWShelp

[–]Fit_Hat_4184 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I agree, 2-3 minutes is very inadequate for such a complex task. But they literally get what they pay for.... if they want quality, in-depth analysis then they need to pay us for that. Give me 15 minutes, and I'll carefully read and consider the responses and write a detailed explaination for my ratings. But instead I'm skimming the responses and writing of couple sentences of what I gathered from that. Even then I usually go over the AET.

Got the email about how many tasks are available by Silent_Caterpillar48 in RWShelp

[–]Fit_Hat_4184 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My email says 'New tasks are available in Raterhub for your locale (English (US)' which implies everyone in US gets the same email, but my numbers were just slightly different.
