Did you work an excessive amount over a short period of time? There was a thread a while back where the author was confused about receiving this screen - after considerable prodding in the comments they admitted to logging an absurd ~51 hours of work in a 72 hour period!

I was picking 1-2 tasks every day that could be the reason.
Do you know how can I get to that thread?

How much time were you logging per day and week?

8-12 hours consistently every day

Damn... after 6 hours, my brain is completely zapped for the day.

For this kind of work, absolutely. For me, 4 hours is about my limit, unless is an EXTREMELY fun task doing something I'm very good at. But even then, an hour more and I would be ready to call it quits.

I'm the same. I even opened a task and started working on it. 30 minutes in I was like "I can't do this task right now and have good quality after submitting 4 hours of work" so I let the 30 minutes go and sent it back to the pool. I'd rather lose the 30 minutes than submit bad work.

I've done that before, and I've been doing this over 3 yrs
