I heard that what most bounty managers do is to conduct the bounty project and later submit to projects teams for distribution, is this not why some projects never paid bounty hunters?

 +The job of a bounty manager should be the guide standing between bounty hunters and project teams
+ Bounty managers should be the ones to hold on to the project tokens and distribute after bounty ends

Avoid these and teams might decide not to pay or send out half payments to half of the hunters, it should be more like how IEO is where exchange stands between investors and team

From what I know, the bounty manager has no right to pay hunters but only runs a bounty campaign. The Bounty manager cannot function as IEO does because the bounty manager does not hold a payment escrow

Come on, friend, you can't force personal will to be like that. The division of tasks and work and rules have become the authority of the bounty manager and the development team. Usually a professional bounty manager with a good reputation will explain how the reward distribution process will be, whether handled by the developer team directly, or through the bounty manager, or through an escrow service as proof that they will really pay. So you should understand that well and look for information clearly so that it is not easy to draw conclusions and think bad.

It depends from a project to another project. I have worked with some bounty hunting in which manager was responsible for giving and distributing the bounty while there are those in which manager just has to keep record and track of the spread sheet for the team.

In the current time it is the major issue with many projects. In this case I will request the authorities to make a rule that the projects have to escrow the funds with manager from the start of the bounty campaign. Many projects ends with failure and the bounty hunters get nothing for their work in this case it is also important that the developers have to escrow some funds in BTC or other valuable coin so that if their coin fail then bounty hunters get paid in cash for their hard work.

Are you sure that the bounty manager you are referring to can be trusted completely? It could be that they play without the knowledge of the project team.
It is common knowledge that there are some bounty managers who have a monopoly, but there are also some who have a good reputation and integrity.

Well, It is all your decision. There are many bounties out there that use escrow, like the bounties of yahoo62278. But it is a very small number. Most bounties have terms and conditions as the project team makes the final decision, and when you participate you have to agree with it. So you can not ask for the above.
As bounty managers, they should be responsible for information, the information that bounty hunters needed. I agree that bounty managers should guide the bounty team from the start until the end, what I mean is that, if there is such new rules given by the team, the manager should give it to the bounty hunters so they can know. And as a bounty hunter, you should do your tasks very well, accomplish what is needed to accomplish do not break any rules of the forum and especially the rules of the bounty campaign itself.

There are many projects that don't pay bounty hunters. They should not submit to distribution projects because if doing so the risk of bad kites will increase.

I think you misunderstood the job and the responsible of the bounty manager.
Bounty manager actually manages the whole campaign or the project itself. Selections of bounty hunters who will gonna promote the project, distribution of token rewards that the CEO gave to the manager.  The payment of the project always depends on the owner. They are just giving the trust to the manager. Well, that was my experience before as a bounty hunter.

Always select the best bounty manager to give you the benefit of the doubt. Some may forward the bounty hunters to the team itself after the promotions for the rewards but some may not and let the manager do it as well.

Most of tokens rewads is distributed by the owner, not bounty managers
Like yobit, the rewards is distributed by yobit, Not Yahoo as bounty managers

You miss the main concern the OP post about why the bounty isnt paid. you dont talk about that
so far the manager does not have much access to the payment, they only collect data on the work of bounty participants and keep the campaign running well. and for distribution is fully managed by the team concerned

if the bounty manager holds all the tokens and he is the one who distributes the tokens to the participants who participated in the project, of course it will harm the project developer, because they could have carried off a number of tokens or they could have distributed tokens These are not in accordance with the amount that should have been obtained or they could have reported to the developer not in accordance with the number of people participating or arguably part of it was taken for themselves.

1. If bounty managers run then they cannot take a second job,,, so they have to open a new accounts with new identities, which will not even be looked at by campaigns.
2. The risk is always there on all ends but this is why the reputations of both managers and projects should be considered by bounty hunters.
3. New projects should do things themselves for full transparency I believe, or spend a lot on good managers.

Its better to always follow popular bounty managers then if you think its a bad idea for bounty managers to hold tokens but few bounty managers can be trusted, we know them because of their sincerity

If the bounty manager is trustworthy I want him to hold the tokens and he will be the one to distribute to bounty hunters, but sometimes, these projects are the one who manages the campaign, we just have to check if the project is legit, a legit project will not let jeopardize their campaign by not distributing bounties of their participants, it will ruin their reputation.

I really liked the idea of having tokens for subsequent rewards at the disposal of well-known bounty managers on the forum. So the guarantee on the payouts are increased several times. Nobody of the local bounty manager would not risk his reputation and not to pay tokens. And now the distribution of tokens after the bounty is managed by people from the project team, who do not care about their reputation, so there are so many non-payments and cuts in payments.   
unfortunately the campaign manager only does their job by collecting data, and distribution matters are returned to the project team people who have access to the tokens. if only the manager could hold the payment fund for the participant, maybe the project would be pure

The problem here is that some manager dont often concern on the participants. Yes the project is indeed legit but somehow you can't force them to spend the tokens they promise right away to those who joined their campaign especially if the price of the token could somehow depleted in the future. I am so disappointed with these kind of projects which after some works rendered by hunters it seems they utmost concern is the liquidity alone of the project.

How about the efforts those who help them reached their stance? Manager should be helpful to them. Funny cause they are paid but its okay their reputation is on the line.

yeah, i also think that way. it would be better if the manager also helped in the distribution and more about the bounty. but, it's like escrow, and after all, I think the team still controls it. it's the same as a bountyhive site, or other bounty sites. they are trying to become an escrow for the part of the bounty project that they handle, but until now it seems that this has not been realized evenly on each bounty project.

Sometimes the bounty managers to a good job handling the bounty campaign but end up as the owner itself do not pay the bounty managers and the bounty hunters,
The owner itself is the one who will be going to pay the bounty hunters the managers will just be sent the list of the eligible bounty hunters that will received the reward,
But still depends on the agreement of the bounty manager and the owner of the campaign itself.

What you're referring to is escrow of the bounty rewards and this isn't common practice amongst most bounty campaigns although it should be and you could request it up front when applying for a campaign if you had any concerns as this is one of the major issues bounty hunters face
