Topic: How much do you care when you wear a commercial Signature? (Read 737 times)

Accusations can be valid at some point and later will turn to be invalid if later more evidence shows that company is not scam. Mostly, when accusation is valid, it remains as valid too. Very rare cases can turn from valid to invalid.

It is not smart to join a campaign from a company that has scam accusation even it is only temporarily valid or still in investigation.

It's Cryptotalk.org forum that is an altcoin forum that wanted to shill their forum in Bitcointalk forum by a collaboration with Yobit.

You missed my point, what i said is "you will be tagged particularly at the former." which is joining those tainted reputation campaign/website.
Although this is still subjected, if this kind of campaign is still managed by a reputed manager like the yobit or the forum ^{(i forgot the name)} related to it where yahoo managed it. Although it hail of different opinions and lot condemned it.

You would not be tagged for joining a campaign handled by a member without a high reputation. This is not a criterion for deciding which campaign is not a scam. Reputable members have perpetrated scams, and members of seemingly no repute have shows great degree of honesty and trustworthiness.
What members should be wary of when joining campaigns managed by unfamiliar members is that the funds should always be escrowed by a higher reputation member to ensure they get paid.

Always do your research on the campaign websites and activities.

Yes, some of the participants in the previous 1xbit campaign were members with neutral reputation (default) but due to financial pressure reasons they were willing to sell their reputation for a few dollars. Now neither of them can be trusted because the trust feedback they have currently makes most of the other users hesitant when it comes to dealing with money.

Now I confirm you, someone promoting a scam cannot be justified especially if they realize that what they are promoting is a scam site or project. Negative trust will be a consequence for those who do it.

Since taking on campaign work is also based on subjective considerations, it's your right to deal with any company. Assassins get paid too, some not even worth it. No matter the dirty company, sometimes someone has to take it even if they have to sacrifice their own reputation because of financial pressure. However, it means being involved in the wickedness and cannot be justified.

When the campaign manager is a trusted member, it helps me not to search for the project too long, but I certainly make sure that there are no suspicions about the project or unresolved issues. I may contact the project representative to ask about any mysterious matter I find during the research.

If the campaign manager is a member of the official project team, I will definitely feel that I have been hired based on certain specifications that the project is looking for. But when they assign a campaign manager with his own service, I will feel that I have been employed in the service run by the manager and not in the project itself.

It's all about how much you care about your reputation, not many does but I am not one of them, if a project is a telling Ponzi due to their high return APY I won't promote it, this is wrong, I've seen small members to high rank members promoting such project because the project is paying in stable coin but I choose not to.

The truth as I have said in my earlier comment is, knowing the services your employees render to the public is of utmost importance and the responsibility is placed on you as a signatures promoter to make adequate findings about the company and follow up with their feedback and development,  as a signature promoter your reputation is at stake here on the forum and if the company do any wrong thing your reputation will also be placed at risk if you keep promoting them after knowing their activities as a scam.

Many have turned out to be a scam, or at least an underperformed project in the aftermaths (not that the projects themselves more often than not were not pointing in that direction to begin with, at least from the existential point of view).
My first campaign was amongst those that turned out to be a fiasco (exit ICO scam), and even though it looked to me like it had some meaning as a project at the time, you can’t get it necessarily right even if you try to be careful.

Now if one willingly decides to promote a scam because of the payment, that’s not going to reflect good on them, and may taint your account from the Trust point of view. As I said, most of the scam cases are met in the aftermaths, and are generally not known to be so during the campaign itself, but if it becomes a well-known fact, promoting the scam is a no go.

It's a necessity to do some research on projects before wearing their signature but what if the project is a Ponzi but the payment is good enough? When it comes to money people won't care about what they are promoting, they will definitely promote the project and take their money.

Obviously, scam websites or tarnished reputation campaigns are the ones that the community is against people to join to. This includes the campaign that is handled by no reputation member to avoid scamming its participants ^{(DT/ other members warn others for possible scam)}. Once a campaign falls for this, you better not to join or you will be tagged particularly at the former.

Most new signature campaigns are casino sites which are new in the industry. There's a zero reputation of the site yet and being handled by a known manager, so joining is not a problem .

Nah, but the connection between manager and a participant is there which is the one i cared for this includes the rules they are following. Being a forum member asking/answering questions, making/argue discussion is the one i focused on. That's how i promote the signature i'm wearing, spreading my posts to any section.

I feel like Roobet hired me. Most cases I begin to reason that I am one of the workers of Roobet and I will imagine myself sitting with my colleagues in the imaginary company office and Hhampuz sitting at the centre directly us on how to work.
I had this idea knowing too well that some people barely last 1 year in their job, but Roobet is more than one year it has hired participants and keeps paying them weekly.
So, I feel I am working for Roobet and that is why I must pay attention to my post and the quality of posts I write wearing their signature and avatar.

When you are advertising on a public platform like this one you need to be very careful about what you promote. For example: there is a promotional campaign for a scam casino 1xbit. Most of the people found promoting this casino had been tagged by DT members which means they are being punished by this community because they are providing advertising for a service that is not good for community.
For that reason, I won't promote any website that I know that has negative feedback and I will always check their reputation before promoting any platform.

I always care about platforms reputation because I don't want scams use us to promote their business to scam other people that's why I research and listen to the community feedback before joining the campaign. If I found out that the platform have running un resolve accusation I will end up my participation because I don't want to cooperate on what they are doing.

I care a lot about the reputation of the signature am wearing even though I don't accept responsibility for their actions, but am in constant contact with the ANN thread here, and the moment I see that the project has deviated from its original intention and has exhibited shady behavior I will not hesitate to end my cooperation with them. Because if I keep wearing their signature innocent users may be tempted into clicking my signature and if they get scammed in the process then I have contributed to that incident.

I think this question is the best advice for potential applicants on any campaign whether in service or bonty section. Meanwhile I didn't do much research on freebitco.in because I thought it was a reputable site. I think you should not only focus on bitcoin signature campaign, but altcoin signature campaign should too get attention.

A few things, check the site and its licenses and user feedback on the "if that's a casino" site.

I don't think so, I don't feel hired because as a participant in the signature campaign I'm not their representative to answer all the issues.

There are many reasons to those you see participating in a scam signature campaign like the one mentioned, some mistakenly dabble into it being unaware but that is not a reason enough because it has been flagged red already and such approach on the campaign will display the warning message for user against the campaign, so they choose not to ignore it, some participant also fall into the set of the ones being reported as scammers, spammers and their likes, they have done evil with one or two users on the forum ehich was reported with vivid evidence, so promoting a scam signature campaign is indirectly identifying self for giving hand in support for scam as well and that's why most of them receive being tagged.


To me i think it's a personal decision that has to do with the rate of exchange of USD to a member's local currency, participating in a campaign isn't by force but a choice, if a user thinks he's good and ok by the offer frombthe signature campaign after considering the general cost and requirements for payment to be made on every eligible memeber, i user can identify interest to participate and another good thing is that there's room for growth whenever you got ranked up, the certain amount being paid will also increses as there's available slot, the common payrate by most campaign which is 40, 60 and 75-100 USD for both full member rank, sr member, hero and legendary ranks respectively i think is a good for start.


Those related abuses are common with the bounty campaigns but rare on signature campaigns, but this forum have the best rules that guide the promotion of signature campaign while the bounty may be unreliable here because you're not using your signatory in participating for such campaign.

Yes, there is no such requirement that you post or defend on the announcement thread of the project for which you join the signature campaign. (At least I never saw)

Yes you'll get small amount of reward. But it is better than nothing.

That's not entirely true. You can get in. There are a significant few campaigns that do accept Member rank, especially ones managed by Yahoo. He tends to consider that rank more than any other manager.

I observe a level of insensitivity with those who promote 1xBit. I would never advertise for a project that I know has a scam accusation hanging on its neck. You've to consider those who've been brutalized financially by the inordinate activities of such projects and try to show solidarity to them and then the project has to make it right with them first by resolving the issue. In this regard, 1xbiy failed to right the wrong but went ahead with its campaign here. That's the height of nonchalance and insensitivity.

This happens many times to me. Some project looks attractive to me but they end up being a scam. On the other hand, some projects that I considered low-quality projects provide good profits for my work. And TBH most of the big earnings I made through signature is buying some low-ranking bounty manager. A reputable manager brings the legit project to the community but because of high workers and low budget in the end we get so little.
