On the top of the thread, it is clearly mentioned April fool still many of the hunters are posting their authentication post. Mostly newbies bounty hunters are there and keep posting their authentication without checking or reading the thread properly. It is all just because they want to join every bounty in terms of making quick money without researching that's why they scammed easily and even I see some hunters keep posting their work after bounty finished up.

Many scam projects come out so I recommend joining bounty projects that are good at running a bounty. I am more in favor of joining bounty legit and trusted members because they have more experience in choosing legit bounty than newbies because the other bounty managers who are newbie mostly scam projects.
Joining a project bounty campaign that directly provides payments every week to campaign participants will provide more assurance than just analyzing based on unclear projects.
payment using coins that are already on the market and payments made every week I think is a good choice and maybe hopefully all projects can make payments like that.

They're bots, so they didn't know how to read. They're fully operated by a system to post an authentication automatically when new thread on bounties section has been created.

I saw some member still wearing the signature until now, I wonder if there is a participant will take it seriously and create a accusation or PMed Brainboss saying he got cheated/scammed Roll Eyes


Anyway scam nature in bounty section are based on many factor, even a reputable bounty manager could manage a scam project.

Bounty Hunters Don't Read
POC!, Most bounty hunters don't read, I agree, but bounty hunters don't read, I disagree, if you say bounty hunters don't read, you are also saying that you don't read too.
As for me, I always make sure to go through the entire bounty post, read about the project, check the website to see how expensive or cheap It looks, try to find out if the team behind the project is anonymous, if am satisfied, I then apply to join the campaign, if am not, I look for another.
But I understand that some of we bounty hunters are always in a hurry to join a campaign, most especially, if it's a campaign that pays goods and will only accept a few people, most will rush to join without even reading anything about the project, and this is why most bounty hunters end up working for free without payment, cus most times, the signs are there but because most of us don't make out little time to check, we don't find out, we only end up finding out the hard way.

Jumping into any bounty campaign blindly without a through research amount to being scammed at the end, this is synonymous with newbies, when  I saw the thread I started researching about the coin before coming to my senses that it was  fake (April fool)
before you say jack robinson a lot of newbies had already applied running to 7th page in a bid not to miss out and earn fictitious huge amount of coin then later they will complain of being scammed whereas majorly their fault

Personally, I always and constantly work and follow the rules in bounty projects. Since I am personally a bounty hunter. During my work, I always followed the rules established in bounty projects. And there were times when the organizers of the projects simply did not fulfill their obligations, in which they themselves create them. And I've heard that bounty hunters are always to blame. You can just take it and say it, but nobody wants to figure it out. Yes, there are those who are simply not doing their job well. And in order for everyone to fulfill their duties with dignity, it is necessary to create more modern rules for completing tasks.

That is not very surprising to me at all. I mean a lot of bounty hunters just scroll through the bounties sectioni of this forum and when they read about a huge bounty pool and as a bonus even "stable coin" in the title of the bounty thread than they are interested.
Then they scroll down to the type of bounty that they are interested in, for example the signature bounty and look how the payments for each tier are. In this bounty they are extremely good with 100 $/week for a full member, because that is way more than even heroes/legendaries get on others bounties. So it's no surprise that people apply as fast as possible and maybe only read afterwards through the bounty post to find out it was a joke.  Smiley

First, they are in desperate to join thats why reading the whole posts isnt their priority, their mind set is to just submit their application. This actually an example of hunters just joining because of the certain needed of the rewards.

But even those who arent newbies submit their application and then re read again the posts, late realizing that it was just a troll. You can't blame them, as they wanted to just earn even the dumbest project, as long as there is a reward included in the posts, they will still fall for it.

These apply to bounty hunters in the altcoin section, there are so many like this, the project is obviously too good to be true just like the April fool's day campaign of Brainboss, they do not check the site or the project, all they care about is the qualification and the task if they are qualify and they can do the task, even if the project looks dubious.

I keep saying it. Bounty hunters are a different breed. They whine and complain and say all kinds of stuff about not getting paid,,, but they are generally the ones at fault. They not only do not read, even if they did they ignore or do not care about rules. Spam is the least of the issues they can even ruin the reputation of people who hire them.

Jeez, I even saw people already telling that it is an obvious April Fools Day in the thread but still those newbies kept on applying.
They won't even bother reading or clicking the hyperlinks of the community to check how active it is.
I just checked that it all led to a Wikipedia page of April Fools Day.
What's even worse is that there are number of >Newbie rank that even applied to it.

Now those newbies will even whine and complain that they got scammed when they don't even do a single time to read and at least check the projects first.
It just makes me cringe that they don't care about what they're putting themselves into.

Kudos to the OP for bringing the thread up, and CryptopreneurBrainboss for clearing up that those users don't care at all in reading a single letter in bounty thread.
I don't tread a lot in bounty thread and I wasn't aware that an April Fools bounty was made. Cheesy

It is like a feeding frenzy, once there is a bounty that offers huge rewards, you can expect a massive application to receive.
They are desperate for money. You cant blame them much. Besides, they will not listen to any advice, even from veteran or professional ones. All they want to do is to collect as much token or bounties as they can and blindly apply in all campaign they can find

This is not only about desperation for money because many of the bounty hunters are doing it seriously but somehow, sometimes we are not lucky enough to get the best. Though they received the payment but couldn't find it listed in exchanges. I feel such disappointment because I'm also a bounty hunter before.

But for now, the market seems to change a lot and we can see that most of the projects are now turning difficult to gain trust from the investors making them not to succeed and just turn into scams.
Hard-working does not the same as being effective. Work with your mind is better. Using your knowledge and skills to improve your value and reduce working time. They only throw their luck in all project they find. What happens if everything collapse? What you say are correct at some points, not many projects are trusted like they used to. But in fact, only bitcointalk project are not trusted. On the internet, outside of this forum, there are hundred of trustful project which investors willing to spend ton of money to fund. As the results, they do earn a lot of money from them, especially those project working on NFT and DEFI  Cry Cry

Well, perhaps they are really bot. We cant not know for sure. I have heard that people are selling register bot and custom bot. Give them a few instruction and voalà, there will be an instant bot for you which automatically make any application bot not only for this forum but also for other sites  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Bounty Hunters Don't Read

This thread Explains it

Quote
However, won't be surprised to see another application below  Roll Eyes lol

They refuse to read the thread very well and understand the rules

They are very much in a haste to earn and that is why they earn up being scammed.

They sheepishly follow existing application

They refuse to doubt when it sounds too good to be true

***** Just imagine application kept coming in, in an April Fool's Thread.
Are these applications from bots...


You are saying that the bounty campaign has the right to "scam" because they don't read? Some don't read. It's true. But most of them do read and they still get "scammed". I have seen so many people complaining after a bounty program ends. They say that the project manager/leaders haven't paid anyone. So according to you, everyone got scammed because none of them read anything on the thread? That is not true. They just decided not to pay their bounty participants. I have also heard how successful bounty programs ended up giving halve the rewards the users were promised.
All those bounty programs are crap. No one should join them and waste their time over there.

People should think about the reality of the situation. Why would anyone give you 2 BTC at the expense of 1 bitcoin?! There is no free lunch and we should not forget that.

Maybe most of them are using bots to just to make an application since as seen most of them who are just blindly following any bounty in their sight without even reading the thread are those who participates in social media bounty, when it comes to social media bounty there are many bots involved and definitely doesn't stop them from using it in this forum as well to randomly create an application.
Should be a good way to determine which accounts are bot altogether tbh, though it may have low accuracy since I believe there's always someone out there that knows the thread is actually an april fools joke but still made an application anyway.

13 pages of applications in just one ay which is an insane amount for 2021 because we hardly see any bounty paying any actual rewards to the hunters now but still people hope that they can make money from bounty hunting even now. Their era is already over so its time to find something better now.

I read the thread because the name of the project seems very fitting for the pandemic we experience and then upon clicking the link of the website I realize it's a prank. Surely there are lots of users here who didn't read at all but only interested to just join without even knowing what the project is all about. If it was a scam project then they would been helping a scammer to succeed.

it gives us a lot of lessons that indeed most of the bounty hunters in this forum are not serious or careful in reading the rules.
Welcome to April and be careful of all those who will make traps and jokes.
