I realize that a number of requesters tend to use the same consent form from task to task. It is very clear. Requesters, PLEASE for the love of everything that is good true and beautiful in this world, please make sure you are editing the consent forms to match the task at hand.

If a HIT shows that it pays $1.00, we should expect the consent form to mention that the agreement is to earn $1 upon successful completion/approval of the HIT plus any bonuses that might be involved.

Here's the problem: When a HIT shows on the dashboard that it is worth $A but the consent form shows that the worker will be paid a much higher $B you set yourself up for a problem that you must resolve because I as a worker have consented to be paid the higher amount in your consent form.

As I noted, I am fully aware that consent forms are reused regularly so I will always contact a requester when I see mistakes like that but others may not be so nice.
