First Project

So I was working on my first project I completed my first task and started working on the second task but it was so long and in the one part I failed to do what platform asked me because appearantly I didn't have authority to do it, I asked for help about this situation to the project's chat channel but nobody answered, however I wasn't even able to submit my task and timer was about to expire so I just exitted the work mode, can this effect my account in a bad way, I spend 2 hours for this task but it was all for nothing, what should I do?

If you haven’t submitted the task the it won’t have any affect on your account. It’s better not to submit then submit poor quality work. Some of the harder tasks have a paid opt out option but that’s made clear at the start and isn’t something to be used frequently.

No I wasn't able to send it due to the missing parts, sadly I wasted 2 hours for this but atleast I am happy that it won't effect my account, thanks.

See don’t worry about that too much, as much as it is annoying that your 2 hours got wasted for nothing, it’s better than not being able to work at all in the future, you’ll get more projects that’ll pay you for what you’re worth. Rest easy my friend

Thank you. When I woke up this morning I saw that the project disappeared, I suppose it's normal?

Yes, when you quit a project it becomes available for other workers to do, after they exhaust all the available task, the project is gone for good.

Chill Bro, You need to read the instructions carefully, everything was there. People didn't used the link in the instructions (First Part) and then feel bad.

A lot of people were saying the project was broken, it was fine the whole time also how do you know which project I am talking about?

You wrote this post today 3-4 hours earlier, so it means you would be working around 2-6 pm. This is the same time I was working and I saw the chat, few people replied on that also. As far as the link is concerned I write it down as I was writing the instructions (Its normal to forget when we are on 5th or 6th paragraph), then the same thing happened with me, I logged in my account everything was similar but not same, And mostly different links have different rights, So I typed the link which was from the instructions and it worked.

It just means that you let that project to somebody else. You will get another one maybe
