if that really can help reduce the spammers in the bounty then all BMs have to do the same way as julerz and I also agree that only those who understand crypto or blockchain join bounty so scammers and spammers will really go
Are you sure in a way like that can reduce spammers? however, they will stay alive and there will always be a bounty manager who makes the rules easier and easier for bounty participants. when the method is successful maybe other managers will imitate it. but every manager has his way and style in managing his campaign.

Well, at least we see a new way to reduce scammers and spammers.
I think if this has a good effect or a good effect maybe other managers will implement this system.
I also don't know about this because I didn't join the campaign maybe I will look at the thread to make sure myself.

Really smart from julerz12 out there. It would drop the participants that we normally see in campaigns but hey who likes the bots or the participants who doesn't promotes the project properly. Plus it also ensures that bounty hunters who join the campaign have the basic knowledge about cryptocurrency which is must.
I was thinking of maybe like captcha thing but this idea is on one step ahead with ensuring participants know the basics and thats what I like the most. Kudos to Julerz12.
It is commendable because it reduces the possibility of spammers joining campaign but in the other way round, it would have been better if we have other great strategies of also protecting hunters by getting paid and not scammed after participating in a campaign. I understand in some platform such as bountyhive, bounty participant tokens are gifted to the manager even before the campaign end and get distributed when the campaign end
Agree to that, this step by Julerz is really commendable as it will bring those spammers and bots not to be allowed joining campaigns who have system like this, extra efforts paid up. Good addition in how to determine bots and real participants.It's also good if the managers are open and adopt such efforts in order to clean up each projects that they will going to handle.

Julerz12 is a fast learner I guess, getting paid and making profit out of your bounty reward are both different things, I've seen and learn some new things about bounties, quantity matters the most not quality, even if you join a quality bounty project and get paid you can earn just fee dollars, but most money I make from bounties are from low rated projects
Honestly this is not the first time I will hear about this very tactics of asking participants few questions before joining a campaign, I joined liquidapps Airdrops in early January and before you can join you have to answer few questions right or you are out
Btw, instead of forcing bounty hunters to pass KYC (as a method to get rid of bots or multi accounts), the project can ask hunters to answer few question about the project they promoted. That would be fair for both of the side. Project will know what people learned, hunters would knows what there promoting and not just doing automatic retweet/share/shitpost just to make weekly minimum requirements.
Some bounty hunters would just say, "that's another job!"... most of them just want it simple and even if there are forms actually that every bounty hunters will fill up, that does not eliminate the cheats.. I think the problem here is more on the side of the developers as they have more scams done compared to the bounty hunters, but I am not saying the effort is useless, of course it's useful.
Maybe the main objective of the team to require Julerz12 asking the participants about these questions is for them to at least make a research first about the project so there can be a traffic right away and some potential investors if they find GEOMA a potentially project.remember that there are bounty hunters that investors as well so having them read their white paper can lure them to invest.I more care about the quality of the whole project no matter the bounty manager. julerz12 is of course one of the most precious bounty managers but also he managed unsuccesful projects like Codex or Vfarm. 
Lol no one is free from failed project ,even the most popular one can sometimes do manage those fail or scams because that is part of the journey .and also scammers are great on this kind. 
Hello guys,
In a bid to fight bounty scammers and spammers on the telegram campaign, there is a great wisdom in the format adopted by julerz12 in his GEOMA bounty campaign (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/endedno-kyc-geoma-dao-cares-for-the-future-bounty-pool-wescrow-5223521), you are first told to answer questions on a google format just to test your simple knowledge on Cryptocurrency and then still require you to apply on google form together with Proof-Of-Authentication on the bounty thread.
Some hunters just quickly come to the google application form, deplore several telegrams or even steal some bitcointalk users telegram username who are not participating in telegram campaign, and use it to cheat. This is why we do see over 2k-8k telegram applicants on a single campaign on the spreadsheet which sometimes will give the BM and his team a hard time verifying and sorting out real workers from cheaters and spammers, they may not be able to fully do a perfect job.
This style employed by Julerz in GEOMA bounty campaign is a step in the right direction which I believe has helped to chase off some telegram scammers and spammers off this campaign and thereby reducing applicants to only serious campaigners and at the end will lessen the overall job of the BM. There were days I got discouraged seeing over 8K in some telegram campaigns.
Let me hear your suggestions too. Thanks.
Let me add a link to the questions (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfDi-1RXiX-G37RLcEAs9RN8UUiXS8mANJ8T_vWJHYSuPFykg/viewform), on the application form, there is equally a code you must enter to proof you are not a bot.

Yeah, such a scheme makes filtering fake accounts task easier, but it also filters all those guys who don't know English well or doesn't want to pass this exam
But maybe it's even better for the campaign to filter those ones. 
I more care about the quality of the whole project no matter the bounty manager. julerz12 is of course one of the most precious bounty managers but also he managed unsuccesful projects like Codex or Vfarm.
Frankly speaking, the bounty manager has done the right thing by escrow the tokens in his confer to ensure bounty hunters are paid their dues after their bounty ends. We the hunters had been used and dumped by many, this can be an alternative to curb the issue of participating in a bounty and at the end go home with nothing. Efforts and resources wasted just for the bounty, any manager who can't follow suit should resign from being a bounty manager on this forum. We need our time count on any single bounty we participate.
Only bounty managers that understand such initiative, will be able to deploy unique methods that could eliminate those bot accounts. Julerz came up with his own initiative and it is working. looking at the Geoma bounty spreadsheet, it shows that his hypothesis worked. Masulum is another bounty manager who also understands how to run a bounty that is free from bot accounts.
These things are not so easy, but at the end, they pay off. the reason being that, it reduces stress on the part of te manager and on te part of bounty participants, only genuine participants receive their rewards.

Exactly, even for genuine bounty hunters it's bit difficult to choose the bounties due to huge number of scammers hence I prefer not to join any bounty until I saw Geoma bounty by Julerz as these restrictions will keep scammers at bay and even after so many hurdles one scammer still filled google form with my username and his ERC address and I am thankful to Julerzs for kicking him out.
Yeah these kind of changing in the rules it’s really needed to apply all of the bounty campaign. Because spammers entry so much in every campaig. I think it’s new things started from julerz12 manager because first time i have been experiencing it. Too small entry in the twitter campaign may be it’s around 48-50 participants within 140+. Definitely it’s happened for such new authentication formula. All of Spam/Fake entry is reducing. Real hunters will beneficial for these rules.
Actually, also good statement applied by JULERZ12 on the project because it will reduce the spamer that has continued to do the action, but if I think there is an easier to solve this problem is by limiting the participants Enter, so in the spreadsheet the participants are not too much and it is also not troublesome.
I appreciated how he made the test. He totally filtered out the participants to whoever is serious, and would put an effort to simply complying with the prerequisite. Although everything can be searched in the internet but whatever it is still the effort that counts here. This step that julerz did, would surely influenced others current and future BM towards having a list of decent participants, and not to be composed by bunch whoever wants to be part of such bounty campaign. And in additional, it will even more look decent, and organize if the project itself is good to have such worthy participants, and the team behind the project are all entertaining, I mean they always respond quickly to the questions that the participants will ask.

The idea of the Geoma DAO project is very good so you use it very wisely to manage their bounties and can filter out some bots that want to enter in the participation of the project you are running so that they know more about the bot coming in more if we pay attention. Your work is very good !!Sometimes I see in a number of bounties that many bots / scamer enter some bounties, but the manager cannot see them clearly so that many who pass and get lots of scamer tokens are really unnatural in my opinion. Scamer must be exterminated.
Those were tough questions that I answered, well, I checked google of course, but I used my own words to answer the questions but even though you are searching the answers it is still a good thing like giving a test to bounty hunters as they will know, BM, will know if the hunter is serious when it comes to promoting the project.
