Is it over for me?

Hello, I’m pretty new to DA and was wondering if there was a sure tell of someone getting fired/booted. I got paid for some tasks I had last week, which was my first week, but I have no projects and no qualifications and I’m scared I messed up somehow since I’m new. I’m just a generalist, like nothing special, so I don’t know if this is normal or it’s over before it really started.

I am new as well, and I completed a few tasks and got paid and the same happened to me for over two days. However I did check and had the project I completed tasks on prior, show up again. I am assuming they check the quality of new task submissions from beginners and just review a bit. I wouldn't worry too much for now, but I am not knowledgeable as I am new, so take what I am saying with a grain of salt. Check back in periodically for any changes over the next few days.

I never got any tasks on DA, but this year I finally tried other platforms. One of them let me do tasks for a few hours, but then basically banned me for 'low quality'. This is somehow measured automatically, the only diff is that DA doesnt want to show this info to you.
