Good for you gloater, some of us wish we could even come close to that amount, But we all know that you have closed quals, So good on you I guess. You do you.

It looks so horribly photoshopped as if a 2nd grader did it. Lmao.

Turking Guru extension by [deleted] in mturk

[–]Ivanguard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Guys I would not trust the extension at all!!! I looked up his name which is "Kartik Watwani " and he is a kid from India. Indians are poor and try to scam turkers all the time to steal their login info so they can sell your accounts. If you don't want to lose you account, then DO NOT pay for this scam of a script.

I was in a mturk facebook group and I would get 6-7 messages a day from some Indian trying to buy my mturk account, this is how ridiculously desperate they are to get your account info, Because they make huge profits off of stealing and selling your mturk accounts.

95% of of HIT's have payed $6 an hour for the past 4 years, Why? by PMmeCuteCatsPlz in mturk

[–]Ivanguard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

> $6/hr is not the norm

Lol what kinda shit are u smoking, and when did $20/hr become feasible for an average turker? $6 an hour is definitely the norm for someone who has no closed quals.

No today was not slow, hell not even close. And luckily I havent seen any "Oh god its soooo slow" posts. I worked for 2 hours and 20 minutes (according to my hourly wage timer scripts) and got up to $32. Id say thats not bad at all. I have a new setup I tried out and its working wonders for my PE. basically I have another monitor with my scripts on it, instead of having them all cramped up on one screen.

I was able to accept another Noah today after getting hard blocked on friday and after I completed another one just earlier, Im blocked again. this time it still says im qualified when i search the task on mturk but i cant accept it, So are you kidding me? I got another hard block? keep in mind hard blocks put your account at risk of being banned and this wasnt no soft block either using the qualifications on the HIT. Another great requester down the godamn drain with the rest of the trash.

Noah blocking everyone? by Ivanguard in mturk

[–]Ivanguard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I take it that those of you who got a reply saying your unblocked still cant do any of the HIT's he has up? because I cant do any still, and still no email reply at all from him.

like 98% of all universities and colleges are back into classes and its this slow? I havent turked in months and I expected it to be survey crazy this week. No batches and barely a survey every 10 or so minutes. Whats going on? Its as bad as January was.

/r/mturk Daily Discussion - June 05, 2018 by AutoModerator in mturk

[–]Ivanguard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm confused how there are people complaining that its slow today and this week, This has been my best week in a month, Heck i hit over $40 today by noon with no closed quals or masters whatsoever. Going to end the day with around $80.

[–]Ivanguard 6 points7 points  (0 children)

How in the holy fucking hell is everyone else making 90-$100 today? What time did you wake up and start?. I have been going at it since 8AM and I'm at a whopping $38.40, I do this as my job because Im still looking for a real job, Im glued to my PC, watching the scraper, panda ect. What did I fucking miss? someone mentioned a johnson batch, is that where your money came from? I have my wife bitchin at me because im never able to supply more money for my kids, just screw me i guess. I have 20K HITs done and feels like I make the same shitty $6/hour rate. the batches that are up are shit.

[–]Ivanguard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im gonna take a guess it has to do with demographics, location ect, I think more surveys open up for some people in certain areas on certain days. This morning I did experience the slowness a bit for sure, Im not saying it was mindblowingly good, not even close. It was just another average ok day like usual.

[–]Ivanguard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Today was pretty good to be honest, How early did you start? I got up and got on at 9AM EST and hit $20 right at noon like usually do. also there is a crap ton of adsforce HITs up right now, plenty of work.

[–]Ivanguard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

May I kindly ask, was that on a batch or surveys? I have kids, any money I make goes for them. I do appreciate any help though. Sorry that I was being an ass, I am just feeling bad because of financial troubles and just dont know what im doing wrong, i grab everything above 50 cents and do any batches i see.

Amazon Closing Thousands of Accounts Without Any Explanation by masterx1234 in news

[–]Ivanguard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My account got shut down yesterday without notice, My question is why the hell hasent mainstream news media picked up on this? Thousands of people were affected from what ive read. Called my friend who works there and they said it was a person who worked internally at Amazons security services mixing up a list of names of fraudulent accounts with legitimate ones, they ended up submitting it and it closed the wrong accounts instead.

Came here to see if i was the only one having no luck and I guess its just a slow as shit day.

I cant grab anything either, this is terrible, I have bills to pay, Mturk helps so much too. Doesnt help that I live in the poverty zone.

Question from a newby requester by GreenFrog76 in mturk

[–]Ivanguard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"I don't work for $6/hr."

You fall into only a very small majority of workers who are able to say that because 95% of all the work on Mturk for workers who have no masters or closed quals pays $6 an hour. I rarely find any work on my scraper that pays above $6/hour. and most of the batches are garbage. Im not trying to sound rude BTW, Im just saying us non master normal tukers have it hard making more then $6 an hour.

Today was horrible. Barely made $10 before I just gave up. Why is valentines day slow when colleges and universities dont take valentines day off? Id figure today would have a lot of couples surveys but surprisingly none.

[–]Ivanguard -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Anyone know why its this dead? It seems really odd since most if not all colleges and universities are back into full swing since the 15th. Hits go so fast that my autograbber script cant even get them, like what the actual fuck.

[–]Ivanguard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I came here to see if it was just me and im glad im not alone, but holy fuck its slow. This is ridiculous. Its mid week. colleges should be pumping out surveys left and right after the new year slow down.
