Topic: Bounty Managers and Shit projects - page 2. (Read 1882 times)

True and the last few months I've seen bounty managers like this very much, but now they have started to disappear because most bounty managers who have a mindset like this already get tags and flags from DT members, the problem is the fate of participants who participated in some project that handled by scam bounty manager they only work for free and don't get a reward.

Bounty managers take money for managing the bounty campaigns, at the end they really do not care about the legitimacy of the promoted project. Only managers that managing more campaigns care more about the quality because they want to make a brand, that would bring a trust for future bounty campaigns.

I agree, if there were no those who lose on investments in cryptocurrencies, then where would the profitability come from. It turns out such a cycle: a newcomer to the crypto space comes, loses his money, makes conclusions and learns from his mistakes and begins to try to make money from the mistakes of others))

Actually people will join Arteezy campaign, because among all these newbie or newbie/cooper member accounts his campaign will stand out. Specially if he offers a good pull. People will give him another chance.

and now we all understand that he has lost his reputation and no one else wants to participate in his campaigns. even if tomorrow he will launch a new campaign no one wants to participate and we won’t see such hype as before

In 2017 and 2018 he managed many campaigns, one of which was success and helped a lot of participants get huge amounts of money. My friend made over $ 5000 with just one campaign he managed, but then he managed many scam projects and was no longer interested in the participants.

Arteezy has good records of successful bounties on this forum but he is human too, now it's seems he isn't taking things more serious like in past anymore? I haven't joined any of his Campaign before but I have friends who have.

That can be the best example of even the trusted manager can't even give a guarantee if that will always become the trusted project. The manager has been doing what he can do to make sure if that was not a scam project. In this case, manager has been doing a lot of efforts.

true, we must not blame the bounty manager either because they have tried to choose the best, so to make sure they are deceptive or not, have to do research and find out whether their team is genuine or not and must also examine the place where they founded the project they are going to build

Scams are not moderated in bitcointalk so it is your own responsibility to find the real project because you are earning money for you not to the forum.But bounty managers do some research on the project before taking it for granted if they want to hold their reputation that is why hunters are advised to choose bounties managed by the reputed forum managers.

Why to put only the blame on the bounty managers? They are just accepting the job being offered to them and that is to keep the campaign organized while the promotion is going on. No one can entirely know what will be the exact outcome of the project only the developers or the team behind that project. Bounty managers are just doing the task being held on them that is why they are getting paid for. Also, as a participant of that campaign, you must be the responsible one to seek the informations needed by your own self to decide if you were going to join the campaign or not.

The blame must not be forced into a single side because both have their own fault. On the bounty managers, maybe it was their fault for not assuring the legibility of the campaign, on the part of the participants, the informations they need to know if they were joining a worthy or legible campaign. But the main blame is for the team or the developer behind because our only task as manager and participants is to promote the project to attract potential investors and the team are the ones capable to manage what will be the outcome of their project. If a bounty become a scam, we, the manager and the participants are all the same victim so no one must be pin point that it is his/her fault only.

At least the trusted manager has already tried to choose which is the best project for its hunters. Im seeing so many managers were also starting to do analyzation before try to take any jobs that being offered by the developers too.

Bounty campaigns do relied from how the developers will go thru, if the developers will turned to scamming people there's no chance for the managers to get anything to pay the hunters, not unless the manager itself will ask early payout or to escrow the funds.

It's the best way for both end, if the team agrees to escrow the allocated rewards the manager will have the assurance that the hunters will receive each shares that they'll work for the designating time period.

yes you are right, choosing a reputable manager in the forum is no guarantee that the project he handles will be good or does not end up scam because some famous managers have a bounty that ends up scam, we need to do our own research

It's kind of like any other marketer. Do the people who make ads for insurance companies believe the insurance is the greatest coverage in the world? Conviction in a project helps, but is usually secondary to the paycheck.

I think the bounty manager was never experienced as at that time, else he would have backed out since he already saw the signs of what might happen at the end. If he had raised an alarm early enough, surely he would get people to join him in fighting such a scam project team, who are cameras themselves and that might make them change their mind. They won't want their project to fail because of such accusation. I just would have learnt his lessons.

The manager should share maximum information and feedback he gets from the project. I've experienced participating in bounty that last for 3 months and turned to be scam. When hunters started to blame bounty manager, he told that he had not received his payment for second and third month, so he also "suffers" from scam project.

What makes me sad is that this manager did not tell the situation with his due date payment. If I knew that, I would not continue participating in this bounty. Because if they treat BM like that, they wont treat hunters well as well.

There are no safe ways to participate in bounty campaigns. This forum has the bounty manager Arteezy. he was very good, but the last 4 companies turned out to be a scam. and now he has no companies at all. there are no guarantees

 This is the problem , some  bounty managers do not carry out any research on projects before they accept to involve themselves and bounty hunters. most times after spending your time and resources in promoting a project , if its listed and the market value is reasonable team will want to scam hunters by introducing rules that were not there at the beginning of such bounty program and the bounty manager wont be able to defend himself  and hunters.

But the good thing here is some bounty managers have learnt and they collect bounty reward before bounty starts therefore guaranteeing hunters of their rewards after the bounty . This is a good development and  other bounty managers  should also  insist on collecting  bounty pool before the  commencement of such bounties.

It mostly happens with the inexperienced bounty hunters. They fall prey to social media hype and fraudulent advertisements. It's a natural process. It is normal to get scammed, at least during your starting days here. The trick is to learn from your mistakes and never commit them again. A lot of research and analysis is needed before you join any bounty campaign. It will prevent heartburn later.
