Sadly, most of the times, YES. There are very few people who comes here to discuss things about crypto, share views or ideas. Most of the users are here to earn some bucks, not to gain knowledge which it is supposed to be.
yes we cannot deny that, many newbies only come to earn income and do lots of bounties and airdrops. Even if the main objective is only about how to get as much money as possible from this forum, they will never develop and stay at that level. As an older member, I have seen many changes and there is no enthusiasm from newbies who have joined to develop their accounts. Income is number 2 and most importantly knowledge in this forum and make a good contribution and start being a useful member. Income is only a bonus from what we provide on this forum.

I find it funny that most members who participate in bounties are either newbies or jr. members who have little to nothing merits, then they complain on why they are not ranking up.
People should change their perspective about this forum. This was created in order for new/old members to learn, know, and communicate with other crypto-enthusiasts. This forum is also an avenue for newbies to discover and apply what they have learned and to contribute to the forum as a whole. It just so happened that the traffic in the forum is so high that lots of campaign signatures continue to exist.
If you see this forum solely as an alternative way of earning, then most probably you are also contributing to the spam. Try your very best to learn about cryptocurrencies as a whole in order to AT LEAST contribute to the forum.

Most of the bounty hunters who join the forum with the sole motivation of earning money generally go nowhere. They're too good at shitposting.
You can notice some of them at the beginning because they start Merit Prostitution directly after joining.
You can't even talk about cryptocurrencies to them, either they're not interested and they prefer to post generic comments or they don't know anything and think it will go unnoticed if they post a generic comment. Of course, they refuse to learn something, Why should they? They can just repeat what has been said a few post above
Not even talking about the users with alts to create a topic and after some minutes reply with their 4-5 others accounts

It depends on one's mindset. The main object should be discussing Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies while also acquiring new knowledge such as cybersecurity, how the economy work etc. Earning side income through signature and bounty campaigns should just be an added bonus for being active in the forum
Everything about the forum, section, frequent question and more are in this thread

Although I don't think not knowing the sections is the reason they see the forum as a source of living, its just their own mis-conception that will fail them all the time, you can how ever earn from the forum but not only for financial earning, but your knowledge should earn as much or more.
