When you click on a new task, you will be directed to the Task Detail Page, which provides the following information:

Task Title: The name of the task.

Sahara Points Earned: Tracks the SP you've accumulated for this task.

Datapoints Submitted: Indicates the total number of datapoints you have completed.

Datapoints Approved: Shows how many of your submissions have been approved based on quality standards.

FAQ

Why was I banned?

In most cases, this is due to extremely low performance in data tasks.

Will being banned from one task affect my ability to complete other tasks?

No, being banned from one task will not affect your ability to complete other tasks. However, if you receive bans on multiple tasks, it may result in a platform ban for 7 days, or potentially a permanent ban.

I do not agree with the ban. Is there a way to appeal?

If you feel that you have been unfairly banned, please submit a ticket to our team on Discord.

How can I improve the quality of my data and minimize bans?

To improve data quality and avoid bans, focus on accuracy rather than speed, ensuring your work meets or exceeds the task’s quality standards. Carefully follow the provided guidelines, avoid any form of cheating, and double-check your submissions for errors before completing the task. Delivering consistent, thoughtful, and genuine work is essential to maintaining a strong standing on the platform.

Can I submit multiple datapoints for the same task?

Yes, you can submit multiple datapoints for the same task as long as you stay within the daily submission limits and maintain the required quality standards for each submission.

If I fail the pre-task exam, can I try again?

No, you cannot retake the pre-task exam. Each user has only one attempt to pass the exam for a task. If you fail, you will no longer have access to that task.
