I started using Mturk about a month ago. At first I didn’t think it was real, but you actually get paid for your articles. I noticed that some of the Requesters are full of crap. They offer a task for $4.00, and they nit pick every little thing. I noticed a pattern for anything over $3.00; they really don’t want to pay so they find something wrong with your writing. Also there are some requesters that offer .25 cents for an article and they want 500+ words. They are ridiculous, they need to offer more money, and research alone takes a while. I had an experience the other week that blew my mind. I wrote an article for a requester, he said he loved it and paid me for my services. He later sent me a hate email saying I was a bitch and that I tricked him because one of the terms in my article was not an offered at a certain institution. I was appalled and shocked. I did my research and I have been writing for a while. I offered to refund him the money, but he never responded to me. I even wrote an email to Mturk and they said it was not their place to get between a client and a task performer. I thought that was the stupidest thing I had ever heard of. I guess anyone can verbally abuse you, and Mturk will do nothing, it is not there place. There should be better regulation of the requesters. They should be fined for using vulgar language, I bet that way it would cease very quickly.
