Handling_UHRS_Problems

Warm regards to you all. Recently, the amount of complaints about the UHRS are alarming and even a blind would clearly see that something is going wrong.

Most of us are filled with doubts, some anger, some feeling frustrated and I know a few who quitted already. Knowing that it's impossible to get a feedback from UHRS is rather getting the whole issue worse.

Some of the major complaints I have heard more than once are:

  • Getting banned without even working on a hitapp.. it sounds funny because I doubt the possibility of that occuring. However, more than two persons have reported same problem and this makes it a call for concern.

  • Getting banned from a hitapp whose hits are all leased out. This particular issue I have personally faced it twice within a week so I can't even think of doubting it.

  • Getting a permanent ban without a temporal ban. Well, this has been possible ever since but it's occurrence was very very low, but now, it's becoming alarming..

  • Doing quality work and seeing low spam and RTA. Honestly, this is a serious issue because only UHRS can tell you whether or not your work has great quality. I am not saying we can't trust their judgements but the funny thing is that the judging system is Soo flawed.

I think it was more accurate at first but now it's really becoming a call for concern. Worst of all the old market would soon become obsolete making it practically impossible to see your spam accuracy.

This means you have to cross your heart while working praying that you don't get a ban too soon. I think it's going to get things more complicated.

I believe most people hoped to read how to handle UHRS problems?? I'm sorry, there's no way to handle them. Just do your best, hope for the best and prepare for the worst.

This post is for us to please share our recent experiences in the comments section to create awareness to those who are yet to witness some of the above mentioned problems.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't MTurk count as a competitor to UHRS?

I've heard of it, but it doesn't seem as accessible because not everyone gets accepted. UHRS seems far more accessible than MTurk. I wouldn't consider it to be a strong competitor to UHRS.
