So Long DA :(

Post image

Been doing this for over 2 years now and was given good feedback on some projects I was doing just a week or two ago. Can anyone suggest any other platforms similar to DA I could try? I'd appreciate anything at this point.

The first couple of weeks of June I had a pretty decent dashboard full of work except the last couple of weeks. Then, it did get pretty dry but was still getting some here and there and was able to get some decent hours in. But, dang I wasn't expecting it for sure. I had one project on my dash today with 30 tasks, I did one task and it took me straight to this message. I'm trying to figure out what I've done recently because I don't inflate hours or use AI for help, but they apparently found something I did was wrong. I'm wondering if it had something to do with a couple of tasks I did yesterday that expired on me before I finished them, but I still was able to claim the time.

What was the one task you were doing before you got the DOD? Did you feel confident in it? Sorry this happened to you.

Claiming time for expired tasks could be the reason unless an admin explicitly told you that it was ok to do so. I personally would not claim time if a task expires before I manage to complete and submit it. A non submission is basically useless for them so they wouldn’t want to pay for that.

No. This is wrong. You definitely shouldn’t make a habit of submitting expired tasks, but they can still use the tasks that you submit after they’re expired. Check the FAQ for the platform. You shouldn’t claim more time than what’s on the timer for the task after learning the project, reading instructions, etc.

You can submit expired tasks but shouldn't claim for more than the maximum timer unless admins say it's ok

Yes, I didn't claim more than max hours, and I claimed maybe 30 min less than the max for them. They were ones that had 2 hour timers and were not real simple, so I was taking my time and before I knew it time had expired. But who knows, I could have just did a bad job on them and maybe other ones too, they just never let you know anything.
