Like if I&#039;m online for 5 hours I&#039;d spend like an hour of that doing HITs, mainly research studies. And then in 2020 I started doing gig-economy full time but I&#039;ve been through 2 vehicles and swapped a transmission and countless oil changes, brakes, tires, etc, so much gas -- and still it&#039;s great for the evenings but during the day it sucks worse than ever.

<br />
I am MrGuy88, and I am new to turking. I actually attempted to do this in the past, but I had no idea what I was doing back then. After trying other survey and research sites to supplement my income, I am returning to MTurk with a renewed perspective. I mostly enjoy doing surveys and research studies, but I’m open to attempting other tasks—though I may need some guidance with them. I want to be a good contributor who follows advice and learns along the way.]]></content:encoded>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<span style="color: #006666">Hello,<br />
I&#039;m hoping that someone here that is familiar with Mturk can help me.<br />
When I used to go on I&#039;d get about 100 HITS, now I am getting about 57 and they are all very, very, low paying.<br />
I tried requesting qualifications which we all know doesn&#039;t work.<br />
Any ideas on what I can do.<br />
I have 88 rejections out of 4021 HITS. Is that bad? How can I fix it?<br />

Thank you in advance,<br />

Although I&#039;ve been using Mturk for at least 5 years, I&#039;ve never participated in the TurkView forums. So, hello. After discovering Prolific summer of last year, I shifted my attention to it and neglected Mturk.  The presence of cloudresearch connect (mturkadjacent.com) made it even less of a priority. But, with prolific and cloudrearch being slow lately, I decided to crawl back to Mturk tin can in hand.<br />
