How to Avoid Rejections on Mechanical Turk

A rejected hit is when the requester claims you didn't do the given task correctly and declines to pay you. Requesters can filter workers for eligibility by accepted hit rate, so if you go below 98%, it's really bad. Amazon recommends requesters filter for workers that have a 98% plus acceptance rate. Disputes about rejected hits can only be made for a month. After that, they're permanently on your record.
