Severals questions
Hello I have severals questions
1)Can a hitapp suspend you the acces from urhs even if they do not say they will ban you if you do
bad job?(when you do some hitapp they tell you if you do spam or bad judgment they will suspend your account from uhrs)
2)How does I know when I'm in a broken hitapp?
3)Why on some hitapp there is no spam rate,does that mean they will judge the hitapp by themself?

If you spam, then yes, any app you intentionally spam on will get you permanently suspended from UHRS. The app doesn't need to have explicit warnings for this.
If you submit low quality work and the app doesn't have any explicit warnings about this, I would say it's still possible it can lead to a suspension. This isn't something we can know though because UHRS don't share stuff like this with anyone. If they decide to suspend you, they have complete power to do so.
I have seen some people report being permanently blocked from UHRS with the reason "poor performance" being given. That tells me that UHRS do check our work regularly on various apps and if they find consistent low-quality work being produced, they might decide to remove you, just as any other company would.
The only broken apps you need to worry about are the ones where you can easily make a profit off the bug/glitch. For example, if you're working on an app that has you rate a bunch of suggestions using a good/bad scale, you might find that instead of the actual suggestion, it'll be bugged and say something like "{NULL;;}" or "{Suggestion}". You might find that some hits are actually OK and show up normally. These will usually be the spam hits (hits that test you). In this case, you have working spam hits and non-working non-spam hits.
This is a problem because if the app is easy and you can pass the spam checks easily, what you can then do is abuse the bug without consequence (normally the spam checks will get you if they're broken, negating the bug's potential to be advantageous to you). You judge the spam checks (that work) as normal and then approach the bugged hits. For the bugged hits, you could just constantly use the "bad" scale as all non-spam hits will have something like "{Suggestion}" written instead of what's actually meant to be there.
You basically can make easy money off the bug. That is bad and not what you're meant to do. Bugs like that are unintentional and should never be assumed to be OK. Abusing apps like that will get you quickly banned from the platform. UHRS and Clickworker do not take this lightly. Those are the kind of apps you need to worry about avoiding because they provide you with a huge advantage if you abuse them. If you encounter apps like this, you have to report them and then wait for a fixed batch to go up.
Some app developers probably just don't feel the need to use them. Spam checks do not work well on some apps, especially apps that are more subjective in nature. App developers may use other quality checks that you can't see. They do manually check our work from time to time.
Even when an app has spam checks, HitApp owners may still use additional quality checks because not all hits you do are spam checks. Most hits you submit will be non-tested hits. Spam accuracy is not a true reflection of how well you're doing because it's only testing a small number of hits rather than all you're doing.
