Topic: Pain of a bounty manager. (Read 1141 times)

What are the bounty related questions that Bounty Manager can not answer? I think there are about 10 of them and others are close by content to those 10. I guess that bounty manager must pin post with most popular questions and that will be enough. What are the usually? Bounty end date, distribution date, are reports needed and posting in local. All this can be answered once and pinned. All other questions - better PM the manager. All the questions regards the project bounty managers dont need to answer, but better send hunters to project representatives. Everything is simple.

You know which project you'll join as usually those popular bounty managers are the ones running a good projects.

When a bounty manager can't answer all the necessary questions, you have to expect that the project is not a quality one as a project would not hire a bounty manager who does not have a good portfolio, unless the project itself is a shitty project.

And this is what makes this thing even harder where you wont able to recognize when its still early and everything will be known when it starts to mess up but somehow you can do all sorts of things like researching and trying to find out some red flag which would really be enough for you to skip out and stay away with this project or else you would really be just ending up on wasting up your precious time and resources.
About on the situation of most bounty managers where they do get the blame which i do see normal for having that kind of reaction but not all the times people should really be forcing nor stressing out
BM's yet to know that they are just also some hired worker to be part of their marketing strategy.Well, this had been already the norm when everytime theres some issues and concerns do raised up on a particular
project. Primary be targeted or blamed out will be the bounty manager first.

i guess you're right, but even some big projects fooled a lot of people and turned out to be a scam, things happen, a project can seem appealing
but an exit scam or something can pop out of nowhere.

Bounty Manager usually manage Bounty campaigns consisting of several people like their Detevtive bounty Team has several people when handling Bounty campaigns.  However, some Bounty managers work alone so they do not have enough time to answer questions from Bounty participant which results in chaotic discussions on the Bounty telegram and often see harsh words thrown at the Bounty manager.

Thats why bounty managers should always make a research before accepting the project so that they wont be blame once the team project went to scam. They should review the project first.

and a lot of people put the blame on the bounty manager even though he had nothing to do with it, he can't control whether the project would be
successful or not, that's hideous, people should understand that and just leave them alone.

I know how a bounty manager could be so busy with the bounty hunters full of request. However, all could be manageable if you only know how to screen the bounty hunters. Usually a project owner wanted all bounty hunters to join and this is really the hassle in part of the bounty manager. Other effective bounty manager were having to limit the participants so that whenever they will going to check the work of bounty hunters they can get it right away for having a limited participants in every bounty campaign.

But a good bounty manager should not accept all the participants who wanted to join in the project. The best thing to do to the bounty manager is to process the application accepting only applicants that knows what to do as bounty hunter.

A good bounty manager should implement rules like

1. Accept and view history of the bounty hunter if he has a good promotional skills.
2. If signature campaign then do not accept one liner posts.
3. Add rules to remove bounty hunters that are impatient to receive their rewards.
4. Add rules to remove bounty hunters that do not know how to read pinned posts in telegram or in the bounty thread.
5. Add rules that bounty manager should not accept question especially if it is answered already in a posts or pinned messages.

There are many rules that could be added for the betterment of managing bounty campaigns it is up to the bounty manager how he will going to manage smoothly the campaign without getting frustrated or annoyed with the bounty hunters. I know that bounty hunters as well had gone pain especially not getting rewards but the feeling is mutual especially if project does not pay because bounty manager is also a bounty hunter that accepts payment from the owner of the project for managing the project. If the bounty hunters get scam then so does the bounty manager!

bounty is consider as a project and we can say that managers are managing the project . on a real project, i think its not the managers role to process payments but it was a role for the financial in charge or treasury except maybe on the sig campaigns on this forum because popular managers can process payment and manage the campaign at the same time . on bounty its different because managers are also treated as a bounty hunter and will also get paid once the bounty is over . bounty managers must search for a good project if they do not want that to happen and having an ability to manage a good project makes them iconic

People needs to understand that the manager of the bounty is not the manager of the project. He is only paid to manage the bounty.
So in case if the bounty project becomes a failure in future, the bounty manager has noting to do with it.

Thats why its important to choose the known managers rather than taking a risk on joining those managers which arent known or newbie or been part of the team itself.
There are lots of manager of this forum had stopped nor get calm on getting or taking projects because of lots of scam that do happen even up to these years.
Bounty hunters should really be careful on choosing which and what project they should advertise and if managers have done their job well then its not really that
right for them to get blamed if the project didnt pay in the end yet they are the main ones who arent being paid since they are just employees too on the said
project.

In fact, professional manager always do more research on a project. so many times the manager idea is wrong, so there is nothing wrong with the manager. If the ICO/IEO of a project goes to fails then there is no mistake of bounty manager. Also at this time almost all the projects are cheating and scamming where many managers are not willing to manage the bounty at this time.

Maybe some of the managers dont have time to research the project if they were already chosen to run a bounty and the payment for managing has been sent to to them. Only few managers are doing research before they accept a bounty campaign.

I will never think of applying for bounty manager I know the hardship and the hardship of balancing between the manager and the bounty hunters, some old bounty managers are not doing bounty campaign anymore, because some of them got bad feed backs and some of them stopped because of lack of good projects to manage.

Most of those cheaters have been caught and reported on Reputation thread, not scam accusation. Scam accusation is needed when the project turned to scam and ran away with their ICO/IEO/Defi money.

Managers MUST do some little research first before he accepting the project they want managed. At least, escrow the bounty funds to them or trusted escrower.

That's why many bounty managers before are no longer active in having campaign due to complaints as well the many scam projects who appear in the past. Bounties were no longer profitable now unlike before so many really do complain in bounty manager even it's their own fail not reading the rules of the campaign. Only bounty manager who is able to withstand the complaints as well able to research and accept only legit projects will remain as bounty manager.

I don't want to blame the bounty manager because a project will be a success or a failure there is nothing for the bounty manager to do. The job of the bounty manager is to create an organisation where the hunters will do their work and the bounty manager will manage the list of those jobs. To participate in the right bounty, you have to exercise your opinion and do enough research.

It's very tough job indeed, we can't deny it. Farming accounts get it more ridiculous for the bounty manager. I guess, in this way both parties are surviving in the long term. Some hunters very professional of making dump question without reading rules of ant particular campaign. There are lots of member busy on catching those who abused the principles at Scam Accusations thread.

Yes i was part of the campaign Julerz has managed and he escrow the tokens for bounty hunter's protection, although the token is not yet in the market at least the bounty hunters got their token in terms of development of the token, it's on the developers of the token and not on the bounty manager, the manager's task is to see to it that the campaign is clean and the hunter's got their token.

It cannot be denied that there are still many cheater people who create many accounts to get lots of prizes and people like this always try to get more prizes for their bounty managers they will always get challenges to solve all problems like spammers and cheated people which can be detrimental to the bounty manager, the hard work that bounty managers must do to remove them is of course very difficult to be an honest manager and able to be accountable to all their participants.
