Maybe they just want new blood

 

I wonder WTF is going on, suspending Masters?
MTurk makes more money selling access to "Masters" and never bothered to tell the requesters there haven't been new Masters in years. I wonder if there's a batch or something that's triggering this.

 

I figure it's related to DAC7. I filled it out the first few times they put it up, but got sick of the "oops, we are taking it down, not this one" and don't think I did the last one. I did it again today, and mentioned that in my email.

 

When did this happen?

 

They're selling Masters?

 

They emailed me like 4 times about the DAC7, and every time I checked my status, it didn't seem to retain all of my information from the last time I updated it. It kept changing my tax/legal name to my Amazon shopping name (used for posting product reviews). So I finally changed my Amazon name to my full legal name, and then it finally kept the information, and they never emailed me again.

For those of you that were recently suspended, did you check/update your DAC7 every time they emailed you about it? Or could this issue be related to QBC or scripts usage?

 

I was somewhere between 2 million 500 thousand and 3 million hits submitted. probably around 2 million 600 thousand submitted. I have always hoped to retire around the time I hit 3 million.

Oh I thought they started charging for having access to Masters from workers that "want it".

 

Logging into the forum this afternoon:



Amazon doing what Amazon does. Hope everyone suspended gets their account back.

 

Did the $6 Robin A Murphy again. Even with their ID check it didn't screen me out. They'll have to pay me.

no mas lol

 

In the wrost way.

Edit: Yo quiero Taco Bell

 

thing about that was that the DAC was for EU, not the US workers. from what it sounds like the suspended people today are US workers. which, hearing this, its making me nervous since i am also one of the REALLY old timers for turk.
