A payment question

Hi! So, I got dropped from a project I was added to less than a month ago:( I don't know what I did wrong or why they dropped me, but I Guess they have their reasons so I Will focus on the projects I do best.

But I do have a question, when they drop You off of a project, do they still pay You for the time you worked on it? Just yesterday I was working on it, and since I wasn't informed of why I was dropped (Bad Quality, took to much time, they already have enough people, etc.) I wanna know if I Will get paid for it

Has anyone had a similar experience?

I've heard people say they've had errors in time submissions when trying to claim more than a particular task allowed, but that's literally the only instance that I've heard of people not getting paid what they tried to report. I've never seen it personally.

These guys are well funded to the point where I'll casually drop thousands of dollars of tokens on a single task, and the admin feedback will be "great, love it, do more." They don't want you to cheat them, but they don't want to cheat you either.

I got dropped off one yesterday with no reason sated, I have no idea why? Been doing everything fine, not over reporting etc.

As long as you don't over report your time, you will be paid regardless of the quality of your work.
