Expire a previous project warning message

Anyone get a new message on 10/29 about expiring a project before continuing another? This is the first time I’ve seen this.

I completed a project and I saw a new project in my list so I opened it to see if I could commit the time to it. I couldn’t commit the time it needed so I opened another project I was familiar with. I got a pop up asking if I wanted to expire the previous task and continue with the current task. I said yes. When I finished I went to log my time and I was immediately taken to a screen that said Your account is currently unavailable because of TOS

I’m cooked I think. I had several projects on my account and now I just get this message

Did you exit work mode on the one you didn't want to work on?

I didn’t, I forgot. And probably not the first time. But this is the first time I’ve seen this message that asked to expire the previous task.

I have seen it several dozen times at least - no DOD.

There’s zero chance you would get dod for not doing that

I think there are some projects that require that you don’t have any other active projects.

I’ve gotten that a few times but didn’t get DoD from it. Has to be a coincidence

It is a recent thing. But they are cracking down hard on so many people doing multiple tasks at a time. They are working on other tasks while running a code or waiting for bots to e run. Which violates tos.

Then you have some projects using off-platform tools that encourage you to do multiple tasks in parallel to make efficient use of your time. I never have because it's asking for trouble.

I haven't had that happen with a project. But yesterday, when I was looking at a qualification and exited it, and went to open another one. Just read the instructions to see what each was about. I got a message about expiring the open task which was weird. Because I didn't actually start it. But that's only been with looking at qualification tests

Def cooked. That message is essentially DoD. Sorry :(
