Topic: Should I leave the Yobit signature campaign? - page 2. (Read 1318 times)

I asked the below question in their signature campaign thread

I haven’t received an answer yet.

They are paying very well, but are very shady. I would advise against advertising for anything associated with YoBit.

I will just add my two cents here which may further help OP and others to decide how to go about it.

1- Yobit exchange contains a lot of pump dump shit coins but you will never find yobit holding your payments or withdrawals issues. So it is not a scam in a way.

2- Even if Yobit is semi-scam exchange, you people are not promoting Yobit. Are you ?  You are promoting a cryptotalk forum and there is no harm in it.
(It has not been proven yet that the forum belongs to Yobit)

3- As long as you do not spam or violates the rules, no one will tag you. But keep in mind that this campaign is monitored by a very talented manager, so you can't live long if your intent is to spam.

I did a post sometime ago titled; {Facts} Disadvantage of promoting signature campaigns that encourages spamming. I recommend you go through the thread then if you're comfortable participating in the campaign genuinely without causing any nuisance then go ahead. Remember the campaign doesn't mandate you meet maximum post requirement daily therefore if you participating in the campaign won't turn you into a spammer then go ahead. The issue is that most users use this opportunity to spam the forum while getting paid but if you can post that much or even more amount of posts daily and they still turn out to be quality or atleast reasonable posts then i don't see an issue with that. We have members capable of making 20+ posts daily and still maintaining their quality standards. If you're one of them, then wearing any signature is a privilege, do what suits you.

The issue with posting much is it deprived you of point No.6 on the thread although If you can balance both posting and learning simultaneously then you're good. The campaign has a high quality manager which will be bringing in some discipline to the campaign. The issue with most high maximum post paying campaign is that, they're poorly managed which result to participates spamming and still getting paid but @Yahoo's involvement in this campaign changes everything.

Interesting, they never say it's a scam shitty scam. No one, neither the heck marlboroza.

Yesterday, i received a mail from Yobit exchange inviting me to join their btt signature campaign again. I wasn't really interested because i left that campaign after the sig bans applied by admin for Yobit spammers (i didn't get banned at that time because my posts didn't get reported, as am always trying not to be a troller) but today i am just about to discover some funny news, IMO;
First, the campaign is moderated by the reputed Yahoo and we can now see statistics about the users (with the help of other members) and take more garantees that the csmpaign is smoothly running. What amazed me while reading the four pages thread is that no one talked about Yobit as a scam project creating methods to deceive users (this is what everybody says when the campaign run last April) and you can check my trust where three users accused me to promote a scamy project (yobit) despite that the problem was "encouaging dpam" and enrolling campaign without a manager.
Second, is how/why yobit exchange use a crypto forum (bitcointalk) to promote for another crypto forum (cryptotalk) !!! Then what!? Using the promoted forum to promote the yobit exchange !? Isn't a mess

I don't know if i have to take some cautions before joining the camaign again as my profile account is more valuable for me than moneyso i don't want to receive more bad trusts or being banned or kicked out from it as a big looser. If you have some advices, please don't hesitate to say it.

The specific prohibition of signatures was:
If you look at the BB Code of his signature, he has a link to a picture that says "fuck you idiot"

I am a supporter of free markets and freedom of speech, but I am glad the trash associated with all the YoBit advertising campaign has been stopped. YoBit management did a poor job of rolling out their advertising.

Ow weird report it now to theymos tell him to remove it or you are lucky to stay wearing yobit.

Maybe if someone reported that you are spamming you will be remove if not then you are lucky to stay wearing it according to his post here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.50727083

Edit: lol try to click your yobit signature.  Lets see

Thymos disabled YoBit signature design but look I still wear Yobit signature design.   

I really haven't thought about the payment thing before writing LTU_btc's name, honestly.
If they are under a campaign then they are probably getting paid, maybe for this reason I haven't given a thought on this.

Just leaving this here

I was in Yobit campaign since 2016 until today. They were still paying, but with huge delays. It took 3-6 months sometimes to get payment. This is one of reasons why most of users left this campaign. From what I saw, there was up to 20 more or less active participants in this campaign before relaunch.

I think it was a nice experience with Yobit campaign, it made me know how do really things work here. Nice move from Theymos, which put end to all the drama that started since the start of the campaign.
Am so glad that no one got permaban for this. Which this to be a lesson for everybody.

That's not related to them being a shady exchange but only because they aren't handling spammers well with a proper manager.


You haven't receive a negative feedback from a DT member so you shouldn't much worry about it. The ones who tagged you probably won't remove it if they don't wish.

Sorry if I am wearing the Yobit signature again now even if I already got tagged of negative trust before and quitting to resolve it.
I hope, all DT members is same with DireWolfM14. Well, of course each of them has its own rules and criteria on how they will rate a member.

Unproven but since they reopened their signature for new applicants,  yobit is taking a lot of heat right now. Their reputation is being questioned more than ever. I will be unconfortable as well if I am wearing their signature.

No, because I don't think it's a proven scam exchange but they are just shady atm. I don't appreciate the fact that their script can't differentiate between negative trust members and others and hence don't trust their bot to count posts properly and not promote spam. They need to hire a human to run their campaign smoothly. I myself withdrew my bitcoins from yobit last week so don't think they are 100% scam.

I began to think seriously that this is a new kind of advertising. Please, everyone, stop talking about Yobit.
This user has done this post -----> {Facts} Disadvantage of promoting signature campaigns that encourages spamming, it is up to you.
As long as you wear that signature, it means that you made your decision, so please lock this topic.

I agree with this. If you feel like you're doing something wrong or compromising yourself by promoting something potentially shady then you should trust your instincts or morals. As for whether users on yobit deserve negative feedback or not that is an entirely different discussion.


Has he actually been on the campaign all this time though? I thought it shut down long ago and there's been quite a few inactive and barely active users that still seem to bare yobit's signature, but I just assumed they just never removed them or never joined another campaign. Has it been ticking over all this time? There were very few people left on that campaign from what I remember.

No doubts that Yobit is shady exchange, and I believe all forum members know that. But really anyone care about that? I don't think so, everyone promoting them. If half of forum member promote Yobit then it's not possible to tag all account. But if you think that this advertise isn't trustworthy then its depend on you will you continue or no? Perhaps I wouldn't like to wear Yobit signature even my signature space were free. If you are worrying just about tag then I don't think DT's will do that since there huge quantity users involved. Personally as a DT member I am not going to do it although I would like to tag Yobit account. Everyone is adult here and most of they know about shady activity of Yobit.

You must be afraid if you are wearing yobit signature with your alt accounts because if they found that you are abusing yobit signature campaign by joining all of your alt accounts I'm sure you will receive negative trust so better to taking off the yobit sig from your alts so that you don't need to be afraid of getting tag from DT members.
