    I noticed there are ten reviews for a requester called "Requester"....This requester rejects hits and noone even mentions that or that he use to operate under a different account. That's enough to bring the credibility of this site down in my mind.....and why in the name of all that is holy do you have to list a "participant" when you start a thread. Iv'e commented on many sites and never have seen that. That's the stupidest thing since tandem racing.

    Please don't post threads in the daily HITs section.

    That said, FWIW TV does have rejection reports for this requester, but the requester also has a >=99% approval rating on MTurk, so it seems to be a new thing, no one can really predict the future of a requester deciding to start changing their approval process unfortunately.

    Were you starting a conversation (which is the forum lingo for Private/Direct message)?

    Conversation is a DM, thread is a new topic.

    TV doesn't have rejections because the requester didn't start rejecting until the other day. How are you reasonably expecting people to export a rejection review when he never rejected before the day before yesterday? As for previous names, he maybe switched requester accounts, which is why TV wouldn't report a previous name. People aren't psychic and TV isn't magic, they can't report rejections that haven't happened yet and TV can't possibly know a requester's previous account name if it's under a different ID.

    imagine a requester willing to cut their pay from like 7? cents to 1 cent not also be willing to reject work.

    TurkerView is fine as bunch of data that helps workers as a guideline. It's not technically a promise that you'll get paid a certain amount with no rejections.

    He automatically rejects if you select "nonsensical" and don't select "N/A" for the second option. I made a mistake and didn't select N/A the other day and got one rejection. It's the only one I got from this requester though.. Like everyone else said it just started happening the other day.
