    I've just started working as an mTurk and this morning I am getting an error message stating, "An error occurred. Please refresh the current page in your browser." but when I try to refresh nothing happens and the error message pops up again. I am not able to accept and work any HITs and I was wondering if anyone has experienced the same issue and may have some advice on how to resolve this. Thank you so much for any assistance!

    Kind Regards,

    Kaihlina

    What requester is this happening for? If you aren't talking about endor's lockout it might just be mturk derping. This has happened in the past although not in awhile.

    Thank you all so much for all the replies! I checked and read about Endo's and I think that is exactly what happened, since the error message was exactly the same. The requester was a survey using smartphone and evaluating search engine results and I wasn't able to accept HITs for the duration of the returned HIT timer. Thank you so much for helping this noob, you guys have been awesome XD!!! I hope you have a fantastic day XD!!!

    You are only locked out of other endor hits.

    I suggest installing https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/17415-is-this-on-endor
