But we have to admit that bounties earnings isn't as profitable nowadays compare from 2017 previous bounties. Those hunters can always find a good bounty but the thing is, most of the bounty campaigns abused their regulations. Isn't too tiring to fully give your time and effort to bounty campaigns which at the end is noy worthy? I am not against bounty hunters, i am against the scam bounties which will put bounty hunters in a useless situation at the end.
Also back then there's less scam bounties compare now. I do agree bounties abuse their regulations but that thing often happens on scam bounties. It's really tiring to put your time to promote a project that will scam you in the end, sadly alot of bounty hunters out there ignore red flags of a scam project just to get paid.

To eradicate this syndrome, you must completely remove the possibility of earning in the bounty.
In this case, all the people who are here solely for the sake of earning will stop spending their time on the bounty of the company.
They will find other methods of earning outside this environment. Or it is better to identify those who abuse and break the rules.
The eradication of earning through bounty can not happen because this forum was assigned for bitcoin, blockchain technology and cryptocurrency discussion and also to serve as an advertisement area for new project. Therefore, i think the only thing that should be do is apply some restriction in the bounty section.In this case, all the people who are here solely for the sake of earning will stop spending their time on the bounty of the company.

I agree with you, BM and Project teams needs to find a better approaches that will help them curb cheeter and pave more reward for the honest one. I believe bounty is not a promotional outreach that should be overlooked as it's help in creating awareness about the project and even cettain investors
Bounty campaign is the major reason so many users are being pulled in here and if it does not exist again, the whole story will change.
New methods can be devised every time, to curb the menace. If some can achieve it in some areas, they can achieve it in newly invented ones.
Each time i went through the bounty section all i can see is 90% greedy bounty hunters which barely read project concept and the necessary requirement before participated in a bounty campaign.
Are you bounty hunter or not??I am sorry but after reading your post I can conclude that it is full of hate to bounty hunters. It is like a description of a bad experience from a bounty hunter to others. Sorry but you mustn't blame bounty hunters only. See those shit projects that only polluted this forum!
Anyway, not all hunters are careless and stupid. There are many of them who are always selective and don't want to wasting time by participating in random projects. So, do you see the smart hunters only 10%? I don't think so.. lol

Pretty sure there aren't any bounties currently in operation that will pay out lifetime amounts of money for simple bounty tasks, regardless whether they're cheating the system or not.
Even some of the best bounties back in 2017 didn't pay out lifetime amounts of money unless you live in a third world country and consider less than $10,000 to be enough to last a life time.
Realistically, hunters might as well do whatever they can to get the advantage. The vast majority of bounties are completely worthless so there's really no harm in gaining an edge over something so likely to fail.
Anybody with any intelligence would take the time they spend bounty hunting and actually work on something fruitful—like learning a new skill or developing business relations.

Definitely, there's no bounty programs out there that will give you the money for your lifetime. Bounty hunters should know that earning from these programs will not secure your income by any means. And if you are joining those token paying campaigns, you have to be prepared not to receive anything at all because only few of them will hit in the market and be valuable and follow what is the set price for their token. Also, remember that the team has the privilege to change the rules anytime, so if you can't comply with their rules in the middle of the campaign that's your wasted effort over there.
Why not stop bounty hunting them if you are not comfortable of sending your KYC or instead of cheating them and submitting false personal data. I think the problem is that there are many bounty cheaters around this community that this so called 'hunter's syndrome' just really thrive in this community. And then they bitch around when ICO projects turns out to be a scam themselves, how ironic. But I guess there will be no stopping this syndrome though, one way is to get ride of bounties itself, but I don't think that Theymos will do that because of the traffic it brings in this forum.

Why do we blame hunters and not the project teams for some initiatives taken by them. But also many thinks crypto hunters are greedy and cheaters but I see it as smartness, they always find loop holes to get their way through. Some finish a project and are richer than most investors(Hunter's Syndrome) 
. So I always say don't feel sorry for a hunter since as their name suggest they could easily kill a project with one shot lolx.

I have to say you are totally wrong, not everyone want to earn money through dubious way but i guess you just tell the whole community what we've been all these while. Well, it's little of my worries as the project teams and BM have that to worry about but i must also tell you that making such a huge amount as you fantasize will be very difficult this 2020 because we are about to finish the first quarter and not even a single sign of the market having any momentum soon. And finally about how teams can solve the syndrome, with the expertise you shown in the write-up about how you've been getting away with your cheatings even with kyc, i guess the teams just have to overlook the whole thing as you are smarther than the system

I don't know but you sound really mad because of those KYC verification most of the projects now have and made it mandatory for those joining bounty hunting programs. I know its not safe to give away your identity to someone random on the internet, especially when most of the projects tend to be a scam or dies. You never know what they will be doing with all your Data (though if the verification process is handled by some well know third party site, then you can be sure that your data is being handled carefully. but if its the project who collects your data and they are the one verifying, high chance they may abuse your ID later on).
But then again, legit project are doing this so that multi/alt accounts don't ruin their project.

All that a HUNTER want is to make his or her lifetime MONEY from a single project through any fair and foul means.
What foul means do hunters use to get a "lifetime money", is it enrolling a lot of accounts in one signature bounty; that's against the forums signature campaign rules and if it's discovered, the whole farm of accounts will get tagged. I don't expect you to encourage people to make money through foul means, AFAIK, it's now the projects playing foul play, they do not pay bounty hunters and they steal investors money. I know a time will come we will have to follow up in person's to company's office for our reward to curb this behavior.
You'll likely never meet any fellow bounty hunter in person, and if you do, just know that 95% of those projects pose with a fake team, so you'll be either walking into a wrong office, or no office at all. 
Wow you're wrong. Every hunters aim is not to make gains through any means possible out here. People carry out their tasks faithfully till the end of a campaign. Every worker deserves their pay. Hunters are paid promoters no need hating souch on them.
In additional if the distribution process was using the different method when some campaigns have already decided to distribute the reward gradually and that was not affecting the price of coin in the market. The worst thing is when you have to follow their telegram everyday to be updated to fulfill all requirements for receiving the tokens. This could be very annoying when you participate in more campaigns. 
It's your responsibility to participate in the campaign, if you were feeling that is so complicated and why you are still doing it?

Sometimes the project team is inconsistent with their statement by delaying several times, adding new requirements and reducing the allocation of bounty payments. Whereas the allocation of prizes to hunters and the distribution schedule is a consideration of the team and they should have estimated whether the amount will affect the price later.
The thing that people rarely think about is that the team allocates a bigger rewards than the sales allocation, or the team offers sales with a large bonus so that basically the team itself has made their tokens/coins worthless from the start.

Blame the projects for putting in little effort to their coin/whatever and just pay pennies to those 'bounty hunters' to fix their shit for them.
I have nothing against bounty hunters. There is money to be made in that field. What I don't really like are scam projects with half-finished proposal offering it to the public and just expect bounty hunters to complete them, all the while paying for mere pennies. That is where the problem for bounty hunters come in. With these easy-going projects requiring minimal effort/qualifications to enter the campaign, many will take advantage of the offer and the real problem while the devs or project managers are sitting pretty waiting their shit to be done while paying less. While this creates a market for the bounty hunters to make money, this also creates an avenue and the line of thinking for lazy devs to create a coin/whatever and spend little to no effort in them. Why would they even care of going all out in a project if there's a multitude of bounty hunters out there, right?

While addressing your OP, i want you to take notice.
Bounty hunting is a very funny task. It is a task where lowly rated hex gave hunters good $ for little task done, and it is also a task where after several Hardwork, postponement, DigitalBits is yet to pay.
Bounty hunting is not a syndrome, people do it leisurely to make more money.
Interesting part is that, a project can give you 1000$, while 100 projects can barelt give you 500$. If you want case study, consider Harmony and Tokoin Bounty rewards from last year, both bounties are a case study for highly rewarding single Bounty

So I always say don't feel sorry for a hunter since as their name suggest they could easily kill a project with one shot lolx. Sometimes I just follow project campaigns rules and laugh:
* Some years ago many project had no KYC
*Now various project are doing all sort of KYC from ID's, passport, videos, audios etc yet still HUNTER will Always be a HUNTER
All that a HUNTER want is to make his or her lifetime MONEY from a single project through any fair and foul means.

How can we cure or tame this Hunters Syndrome?

I think this could be true to a greater extent when we have good paying bounty projects. However, this time around, if an hunter make his her way through some multiple accounts for example, sincerely the probability of that amounting to exercise in futility is very high. The hunters syndrome as you have named it do not applies to all hunters.
Why do we blame hunters and not the project teams for some initiatives taken by them.
Honestly, bounty hunters are to be blame in some case while the project team are responsible for managing the project and make it prosper rather than quench in a thin air. But also many thinks crypto hunters are greedy and cheaters but I see it as smartness,
Each time i went through the bounty section all i can see is 90% greedy bounty hunters which barely read project concept and the necessary requirement before participated in a bounty campaign. Meanwhile, no one should call that smartness but greed and cheat. Some finish a project and are richer than most investors(Hunter's Syndrome)
Only bounty hunter that registered with alt account will be richer as you claimed through bounty even back in the early days when bounty pays well.Jump to:
