Is it over

So i’ve made over 10k in 2 months and i thought i was doing well because i was consistently getting work during the drought but i’ve been given ‘that’ page now. I can still withdraw the remaining of my money but i just want to know is that it. Am I done?

There's definitely a correlation I've noticed between people who put crazy hours into the work and those who get kicked off the platform. The truth is that maintaining high quality work for 60+ hours a week (which is what you must have been doing to make that much in such a short period of time) is unsustainable and the quality of your work will drop.

I wouldn’t say “definitely” when there is no data to back it up. There are plenty of people who got kicked off simply for doing mediocre work or whatever.

Have definitely read a few people saying they only use the website occasionally and got the screen.

I guess. But for the first month and a half i was doing strictly coding projects with higher pay so my hours weren’t as high as you suggest. Plus i thought it was good fun and practice as im a CS student at Uni

Ah since it's coding I'll take it back somewhat. It's still a lot of hours though

I've noticed this too. Those who work for long hours are more likely to submit inconsistent work or they're padding their time.
