There is a topic in the Russian-speaking section, where there are about a dozen newbies with activity Legendary and with more than 2000 posts. It is noteworthy that absolutely all posts of these newcomers are in one single topic. That is, if you delete this topic, they all become Brand New.

LOL, what's this? Are these accounts providing any post value? And what are they talking about? I don't understand Russian, but it looks like they are giving trading calls? Or is this advertising for a certain service?

As long as they just post in a single thread, I don't think they do much harm to the forum. However, it still looks quite strange.

Would love to hear the story behind this.

It's possible that he hasn't yet been caught cheating, probably because this may not be his first account and he has likely learned to be careful (perhaps from his own past mistakes).

He has been caught cheating, here is the proof, its just that no one bothered to tag him as of yet. And he wasn't particularly careful either as it took me like few minutes to find a solid connection with another account.

Although the user didn't contribute anything to the forum, but I quite respect he haven't cheat any campaign until now... or he's smart enough to leave his trace?

Chances are that he only hasn't been caught yet as it doesn't make sense at all to join bounty campaign with 1 account only since everyone else is cheating.

Exactly my thinking. It's worth noting that he created his account in 2019, which was well after the peak of ICOs and shitcoin bounty campaigns. It's possible that he hasn't yet been caught cheating, probably because this may not be his first account and he has likely learned to be careful (perhaps from his own past mistakes). In cases like this, I typically examine their posting patterns. As we can see, he usually spend around half an hour to an hour on the forum each day. Therefore, it's reasonable to assume that he could easily manage dozens of such accounts simultaneously.

In my view, this is the only explanation that could justify the amount of time they are investing in this activity. It is essentially unprofitable to engage in these campaigns with just one account, given the current payout rates and the low probability of any individual campaign generating a significant profit.

EDIT:
After a second look, the user has already been caught for having multiple alt accounts back in 2021, and is probably part of a larger account farm.

Haha, good catch buddy. Holy smoke, almost 6k posts and no merit, lol. That's what I call bounty spam dedication. I mean why do you keep on hunting these bounties for years? 99% of the bounties offered are garbage anyway. Does it really make sense to waste your time like that?

It would be quite interesting to know what profit he made during all this campaigns. His hourly must be like 0.0000001 BTC or less, lol.

To be realistic, since that person stuck to this much time around here it is likely he/she managed to make some actual profit from their bounty hunting participation, of course, their use of alt accounts to potentially cheat those bounties only further proves it.

Still it is remarkable they did not even bother to get a single merit, considering bounties also have options those those with high rank to participate and earn tokens easier...

Total post is almost 2x of mine post. who will give merit to this users , All of whose posts related to bounty. 1% posts other than proof of authentication and weekly report. His main goal is to join bounties , For this reason, he did not participated even single discussion in the forum except bounties.

Bounty managers should lay out a rule that they only hire Junior account or participate in discussion at least twice a week, there's too many cheaters in the bounty section and they disregard forum rules.

Actually Projects need shilling on social media posts and this why they happy woth number of retweet and like. if these are limited to junior member rank So we hardly get to see even hundred members. I think it would be beneficial to have Junior member restriction for articles and videos.

I used to think that his posts are of low quality, but it is more like a bot that fills out applications, and therefore it is not surprising that he does not get a single merit because what he does is far from the discussions.

Even banning such accounts is meaningless unless some restrictions placed such as 1 to 10 merits.

Almost 4 years here in the forum and still a newbie even though his/her activity is 1k up which means if this user-contributed well in the forum then he must have a senior, hero, or Legendary rank instead of a newbie but as we can see his post history almost all his/her post came from bounties and Altcoins and that mean he is a altcoin hunters are aiming foe token. Instead of learning here in our community .

Funny character. Where did you dig it up?

He has 1092 activities, which means he is almost Legendary.

Except for the nuance in the absence of merits.
His posts in 5767 pieces seem to me something incredible compared to my posts, which are 2 times less.
And another funny fact is that he doesn't have a single topic created and judging by his history, this user only participates in bounty campaigns, without communication on the forum as such. Probably just for this he was created.

Every time someone make thread like this, i expect someone will decide to merit that user for entertainment purpose. And IMO there should be single dedicated thread for this kind of topic.

Anyway based on https://ninjastic.space/user/Shahinbd, he only make 16 posts outside "Bounties (Altcoins)" board which isn't surprising.

I don't mean to make fun of any user, but it seems the user mentioned is really focused on his hunt for altcoins where 99% of his activity is only in the bounty section. It might make sense to get users who really don't care about anything other than just bounties and altcoin, and that should be they goal of being in the forum. So of course it's true, it's not surprise but it's proof that there has always been a different interest among users of these bitcointalk forum.

some bounty managers only use certain activity count rules. no minimum rank. it's just to limit the new accounts.
whereas accounts like that, I've seen it many times. new account spamming POA posts in bounty threads that have been inactive for a long time. they make dozens of posts in a matter of days. just to catch up on the activity.

account behavior like that raises suspicion. they are on forums to earn bounties. with just 1 account, I'm not sure they'll get the results they deserve. and it makes their greed grow by participating in their account farm.

Haha, that didn't take long. It looks like another great Bitcointalk bounty hunter career will now come to an abrupt end.

Hah, there's no way that he stop his bounty hunter career just because 2 of his accounts will end up tagged. God knows how many accounts he has and already and its not like that he can't join campaign with a brand new account.

This kind of account does not have a contribution to the forum's discussions there are thousands of new discussions in a month I'm sure there are discussions that will suit his interest, it's ok to be a bounty hunter as long at least 1/4 of your posts in a week are on participating in discussions.

You're probably right. I myself spend almost no time in the international altcoin/bounty forum section and I'm probably way too naive when it comes to these users. Each bounty spammer probably has 10 different accounts in the same campaign.

I guess the accounts that are finally caught by you guys are probably just the tip of the iceberg.

To be going at it for so long, there must be beneficial enough strategy that is keeping he/she going. I am curious as well!

Out of curiosity I checked him out a bit and of course he is cheating bounty campaign as there's no sense to do those unless you are cheating as everyone else. And if you check those two accounts post history you will see that he is not even particularly smart when it comes to cheating and for sure that's not his only alt account.

I will take the bet that they won't notice or post in this thread if that market is open Shocked

It seems that they are only using this forum as a means of profit from bounties. There is no interest in any other part, so I doubt that he will even move from that board. I am sure they use all of their time on the bounties too without any to actually browse outside that place. Seems like a pretty safe bet to me Cool

Dude's username should be ShitImBad. Maybe Theymos could grant him an honorary name change, because it's an astounding non-accomplishment to be here 3+ years and still be pegged at Newbie rank and absolutely no recognition from whoever his peer group is.

I would suggest that there's a very low standard for respect going on there. There are plenty of members who haven't cheated bounties or campaigns, but not only don't I respect them for that, if a list of those members were produced right here in this thread I bet I wouldn't even recognize most of them.

But hey, if we were all the same and agreed on everything this forum would be as boring as the trollbox on Yobit.
