Getting annoyed with tasks lately

[margeryluvsbilly]

Crowd Flower is the company that does the tasks. When a task won't let me submit it because of some kind of error, I will write them and let them know. The used to credit it but here lately they will just say they will check into it or the task creator has fixed the problem but the ones that have errors have for months and the tasks never get fixed. It can be upsetting. I used to do them anyways since I would still get credited for them by sending them a complaint.  Now I just don't do them kind but sometimes I run into a kind where most of them work and then some won't so I spend my time doing it for no reason since it won't submit right or my accuracy got to low to do anymore because they counted some wrong that the answer was exactly the same as the answer they said it should of been!

This has happen to me before. I did some of the tasks correctly and marked me as wrong answers and flagged me so I contacted crowdflower support and eventually credited me. You should contact crowdflower support if you have any problems with any tasks you have.

I have been finding that problem as well.  But there is always a way to make 5 cents so I can do my paid to click.  I am waiting for them to bring back the Business Card Transcription or some other task I can make money from.  In doing the Business Card Transcription, I got to the goal of $25 earlier than usual.  I am at $58.40 as of today and I still have 11 days to make a couple more dollars to get to my goal of $60 or more.  I wish FC would credit me with my bonus and I can't wait.

I try not to let that get to me to much, because it will only get in the way of what I am trying to accomplish. I call it margin of error. I know that two or maybe three times a month I will complete a task, survey, or some other offer and will not get paid for it.

thtrngng has the right idea.  I don't pay that much attention to whether or not I get credited.  I don't think I've ever sent in a complaint, but have had many, many frustrating occasions where the tasks did not work as I expected they would, even though I was following the rules and performing them correctly.  When that happens, I just switch to a different task or leave and come back later.  You never know when you might hit upon a task that works great and that you actually enjoy performing.
