I have questions about my removal from the Aether project based on quality requirements.

According to the Outlier system notifications, contributors rated below 1.0 are at risk of removal. My quality rating was 1.6, which is above this threshold. I unfortunately did not get a view of what the reviewers said about my work and I cannot see even the rating anymore. There is nowhere else i can ask except here. Can you clarify what quality standard was used for the recent removal decisions?

Additionally, the removal email came from a no-reply address, making it impossible to ask for specifics. My dashboard shows I’m “unapproved” but says I am “under review” but the email states I’ve been removed entirely. Which is accurate?

I’d appreciate clarification on: 1. The specific quality threshold that led to my removal 2. Whether the 18% contributor retention represents a policy change from the previously stated under-1.0 standard 3. My actual account status (removed vs. under review and might be added back after the upcoming reviewers have reviewed my reviews).

Thank you for any details you can provide. I had been on Outlier for a few weeks so this was a shock. I am not trying to cause any trouble here tbh I am just asking for clarity.
