Try to type the username without any blank. HailongYan not Hailong Yan. And if your password is "aSdfG3", then type aSdfG3 not asdfg3 or ASDFG3. If it doesn't work, maybe you should email them. And your bank will tell you about their IBAN or SWIFT. Contact your local bank branch.

Thanks for your info. I have tried for sever times. But Hailongyan, Hailong Yan, LRP\Hailong Yan and LRP\HailongYan are all failed to log in. I know the password is case sensitive too. Do you know with whom I shall get in touch through email in this case?

Thanks.

I can acquire tasks through the EWOQ interface, located here: https://www.google.com/evaluation/search/rating/home. Are we working here? Can you tell me what the Lionbridge Rater Portal is used for?

Thanks so much.

I'll send a email address to you.
Rater portal is very important to our job. It has many useful meterials. I think your welcome e-mail explains about them. It would be better to read these information at the portal before you start to work because they are really helpful :D And we works at the URL. However we should go through the rater portal before start rating.

ooops. I can't send PM . There are several emails at your welcome email and send to one of them. Hope everything goes well.

i will email them. hailongyan at hotmail dot com is my email and msn id. i will be glad if you can email me or add me through msn. have a nice day!

These XL type 2's are giving me puffy eyes...

If you are pasting the password, you may try to type it instead.

Thanks. I can log into my rater portal now.

Hi,

I'm new to this forum. I have been a rater for a little more than a month now.

Yesterday, I received an Email notification that a new certification process was going on and that I could participate in it.

So I read the guidelines to the new certification and proceeded to complete the tasks needed for the certification (they said there would be 10).

So after completing the 10 tasks, when I log on, I am still only able to acquire these certification tasks AND the same tasks I have already submitted keep coming back to me.

Is everyone experiencing the same? Whenever I click "acquire task", I keep getting the same certification tasks I have already completed. Thanks!

I ended up doing 19. 9 of which were duplicates. worryingly the 2nd time I clicked one of the tasks the LP was different the 2nd time. I think its clearly a common mistake if its happened to both of us and I would imagine this would be bore in mind upon assesment. I've also added the time to my timesheet on the assumption that they will just reject that day if its unnacceptable. I had to do it twice and I dont see why I shouldnt be paid for that, by entering into it I agreed to do ten tasks for no pay. not 19.

I know have no tasks at all which is a bit frustrating,

I ended up releasing quite a few of those "double tasks". I hope this won't be detrimental to my success in that project. on the other hand... I can't exactly complain about a shortage of tasks to begin with.

What do you think about the new interface?

I don't like the excessive clicking, opening, then selecting after you've already selected... Useless

its annoying but not as annoying as the lack of work...

How long have these been taking you? Or anybody for that matter?

About 9 mins on average for me.

The same happened to me! after completing the 9th task, the same tasks came back again, so I thought this was because my time was expired and repeated all the process again. Quite annoying About the TS registration I think they were clear about this project not to be paid per task, but as a bonus. Obviously you can do as you want

THIS IS A MESSAGE FOR NEW RATERS

You have signed up a NDA so you should not reveal any confidential information related to our job. It's very easy to know who you are and they could turn you away for NDA breaking. This is just to help you be here the longest

Anywhere from 7-11 it seems.

Seems like I am in line. I do between 6 or 7 an hour. Just seems like a long time.

I am very curious about that how do they track someone reveal some confidential information to others?

They have published a reminder on the portal today. I think it's pretty obvious they read this message board.

It's quite easy if you reveal your login data to the portal

I think that LB are shooting themselves in the foot by not giving us an official forum. I'm sure that many people here would not even use an outside forum such as this one if we had an official one.



It is extremely difficult to work in an insular fashion for most people. We need feedback from our peers! If I had an official LB forum, I would be happy to sacrifice any social aspect of this forum in favour of a good learning centre.



It seems to me that LB, by ignoring human nature, are forcing us underground and making us resort to communicating in code when it should be unnecessary.



We are all pretty much in the same boat. We WANT to be able to discuss our work in a civilised and sensible manner, but we are constrained by being in public. These public forums are well and good, but it feels like we are hiding behind the dumpsters at work having a sneaky cigarette and gossiping about work when all we want to do is go back inside the building and help each other improve in a collegial atmosphere.



I feel a little violated that by merely posting on a public forum makes me feel like a subversive, when all I want to do is learn from others in the hope that I can do my job better, and hopefully help some others myself if possible.

Very well said Homeboy.

I think today's captchas are gonna make me get glasses...

I agree, an official forum would be great and could be used to improve our work. I still don't think we would be able to discuss everything/specific items there though, without affecting the integrity of the work. Hopefully they'll give us one soon though.

up up up!!!

that is odd. I didn't get the long type 2 test or a email. It would seem that all raters except me get the task. well, I'm getting scared . Is there anyone like me?

maybe its rolling out at different times in different countries?

I havent got any test either.

Me neither.

Thanks for your reply! Maybe rbbrslmn is right; rolling out at different times in different countries. Or is it related to the recent mail about mobile devices? I answered that I have one of them and then the day after got some new tasks about them instead of the test. well, don't know why some of us didn't get the test, but I'm relieved at your reply. thanks.

No tests and no such a recent mail here either.

yes, thank you. Likewise here.

its not.

Is there anyone to tell me what DB(Display Block Task), EXP(Experimental Task), RR(Result Revies Task) and TTR(Time To Result) Tasks refer to. I wanna a brief description of them.
Additionly, what kind of tasks Resolving Tasks and Video Search Quality Rating belong to?
I do some kinds of the tasks with IE explorer. Does it matter a lot?
Thanks

all the bits I deleted from your post are the bits that will get you sacked.no one is going to answer that question I'm afraid.
there are some tasks that will not work in IE, only firefox. additionally you won't be able to do your work thoroughly without using the dev plugins.

"A Type VII, A Type VII, my kingdom for a Type VII!"



(so weary of these others..)

Hailongyan,

Read your NDA and try again. You are being far too explicit. I don'r expect there is anyone here prepared to tackle your posts as they are dangerous to our terms of contract.

Do it feel like spies have been sent to the forum to try and encourage us to break the NDA? Seems to be more and more posts from people specifically asking for answers that would break the NDA.

Maybe that is just the conspiracy theorist in me!

I was thinking the same thing.

am I the only person who prefers 5s?

I either do or do not believe in conspiracy theories. What you are suggesting is a possibility wrapped in speculation and lightly peppered with a hint of mystery.
The only thing that I can say with any degree of certainty is that I don't know.

I prefer type 5's over the new type 2's!

I dont mind those either actually. well I dont hate them.
there have been other longform type 2's in the past I've wanted to shootmyself rather than continue with!

No conspiracy theory at all, of course competitors know of this and other forums, so they will have and will be gleaning as much info from you all, as is possible. Not only competitors will be watching, but all those other people who have a vested interest in SEO too, from white hat to black hat, they'll all be watching and crawling for the mistakes you make in posting some of the things I've seen recently on here. And I've no doubt some will be 'placed' here deliberately wanting & trying to get some knowledge, after all, anyone can join the forum. My advice is to not talk about THE ACTUAL WORK UNDERTAKEN whatsoever, then there can be no problems.

I see the logic in that but surely the smart blackhats spend a week or to doing the job?
(well I know for a fact some do one of their forums came up when I was first applying for and researching this job)

I know that I should not asK such a question here now. It's really forbided.

Sorry if this has already been covered...

Quick question about the new Type 7's - - how do you count the number of tasks? Is each query one task, or is each rating counted as an individual task?

Also...anyone in the USA participate in the referral scheme a couple of months ago? If so, has anyone received payment yet?

Thanks!

Each ratable item counts as a task. Thus you may have more than 1 task while only hitting the submit button once.
