Topic: Pain of a bounty manager. - page 7. (Read 1141 times)

This only summarized how difficult the task of bounty managers and the bounty hunters should also respect them especially in the event that there are mistakes that happened or there are delays with the stake counting.

Most of the bounty hunters are blaming the bounty managers if their stakes are not correct and they didn't even bother in thinking why they only get that stakes. It's not easy to be a bounty manager if their are plenty of hunters that are almost noob (They just randomly do the task without reading the rules and guidelines). This is the common mistakes of the bounty hunters, though not all but most of the new hunters are like these.

But let us also not say that the bounty managers have the absolute freedom to accept all kinds of projects for as long as they are paid well. We should not say that the bounty managers do not have any accountability as to the projects they are promoting. That is not good also. Bounty managers should at least do their research as the bounty participants are also doing their research. Bounty managers are like portals. Once a scam is approved by the managers, there will be a flood of other people, the bounty participants, promoting it resulting into a bigger problem. The bounty managers have responsibilities, too.

Sometimes the bounty participants simply say that what the bounty manager does is easy and many say that as a bounty manager they can choose which projects are good or not. We cannot blame everything on the bounty manager when the project we follow becomes a scam because sometimes the bounty manager also doesn't know about it and they only supervise the bounty participants and also always update the spreadsheet and report the results of all the work to the team behind the project. .

That is why there is a bounty manager, why are you whining about your work OP?  Bounty manager's task is to oversee the bounty campaign.  It is your task to check for cheaters, scammers and filter participants.  And calculate their payments and pass it to the management team.  If you are not willing to do the task assigned to you then better not to manage any campaign.  

Those who register thousands of accounts are not bounty hunters, they are cheaters that disguised to be a bounty hunter.  And it is your task to spot them so there is no reason for you to whine about it.  Besides if you properly contract a deal, you have been paid even before the job started unlike those bounty hunters that waits a very long time before being paid.


I believe they have deals before the manager accept the job.  Part of it that a bounty manager demand is an upfront of 20% to 50% of payment, typical of any deals unless the bounty manager don't know what he is doing then he will be working without any initial payment.


That is why bounty managers are paid several times bigger than any bounty participants.

How do you know if the manager was getting paid before managing the campaign? as far as I know that bitcoin campaign is really different from the altcoin campaign. In bitcoin campaign, there was a lot of managers who are putting escrow as the first requirement before he starts his job but in altcoin campaign, the manager will be getting paid after the end of the bounty campaign. Remember so many altcoin campaigns were using their free tokens to pay the hunters and manager. Not all of the team from altcoin can be trusted as they were not even sending the token to the escrow but they are all of the control over the tokens and this make altcoin bounty campaign just like a bit bet for the participants and manager.

The difficulty of the bounty manager is a little higher compared to that of a bounty participant. The manager does not have a required number of posts daily, or number of tweets, or an article, or a video, and so on unless he is also a participant. His task is to make sure the participants are meeting the requirements. But that is more difficult because that means hundreds of them. But this is a case to case basis, there are so many managers who cannot even update the spreadsheet on time.

I am still confused about how the bounty manager got the job for the project and why they did not select it either, that they were real and paying projects, actually we don't blame anyone because we should all correct ourselves, I also don't defend bounty hunters because I also a bounty hunter but I feel disappointed too sometimes when they like to shout in the telegram group about distribution, I also want the bounty to be better in the future and where the bounty manager does not easily accept service work from the scammer project, I wait for everyone to work together to overcome things this is between bounty hunters and bounty managers dealing with scammer projects instead of accusing each other

It is sad that many bounty hunters using fake social accounts with fake friends, followers, likes and shares. However they alway complain about their reward when the project failed.

Yes indeed, that the worst part wherein bounty manager filters the data by keeping the cheaters and spammers at bay by individually checking the details but don't hear from the project owners after submitting all the details and Athero bounty was an example of greedy management and short-sighted fraudulent activity done by the management and bounty manager and hunters were at receiving end.

Bounty manager is an extension of the team to manage their bounty project, and of course we as bounty participants also cannot 100% blame the bounty manager, if indeed the project fails and is fraudulent, because to my knowledge the managers are also paid when the project is finished unless the manager who handles bounty projects with BTC fees usually there will be someone who acts as an escrow so that payments for bounty participants will be guaranteed, but if the project pays with coin ico of course the manager will get paid after the project is complete and all spreadsheet data has been sent to the project team, but if the project is fraudulent, of course the manager will usually not get paid the same as the bounty participants.

Yes we are talking about the hassle which the bounty manager goes through and bounties of good projects which fails and the development team ends up with huge loss, as a result, they could not focus on further developments and just don't bother to distribute the bounty tokens to the bounty hunters until the investors trade the tokens or else just shuts down the project.

Management's fault:
They tend to be greedy at one point of time and starts thinking that if they distribute the bounty to the hunters they will dump it anyway nad the value of token will crash down and they dealy the distribution meanwhile the bounty hunters start writing bad about the project and there were instances that the genuine bounty projects were termed as scam for this issue.

Bounty hunter's fault:
Bounty hunter just join any random campaign without investigating and then they are the greediest bunch(not everyone) I have seen while managing the campaigns as one user registers with hundreds of fake accounts and that too their account has followers who have nothing to do with crpto as most of them as desperate who just follows the twitter account by looking at fake DP of some hot girls which are often used by the hunters to gain more followers, moreover, the bounty users enter their ETH address on some other person's profile as well and if the bounty manager does not check that then the cheater will get paid twice and the person who works hard will not be paid, submitting false report is one of the main concern wherein the bounty manager has to check thousands of report and some of them just copy-paste old reports to get reward without working.

Then comes those users who keeps spamming the telegram group by sharing some scam projects and irrelevant stuff from numerous fake profiles.

I think the whole bounty process has become a shithole and the worst part is that the signature campaigns are not entertained by bounties as they want to reach wider audience without knowing that most of the social media campaigns do not reach any real audience as it reaches some fake profiles who follow the bounty hunters just by looking at their picture.

Regardless of the issue, the bounty managers are cursed as if they are paying out of their pocket. Users needs to understand that even bounty managers are paid for their job just like bounty hunters and most of the time even they are not paid for their hardwork. Even a slightest negligence from bounty hunters gets them a negative trust thanks to those merit thirsty users who tries to blame it all on bounty hunters to get a merit.

this is just a brief of not even 5% of pain which bounty managers go through.
