Topic: Unacceptable attitudes from new project teams - page 2. (Read 1048 times)
Well i think it all decides on the bounty manager because some managers are actually reliable and would do anything for hunters to get paid while some always have this nonchalant attitude and rip hunters off but its would be a lovely idea if all bounty managers can use Escrowy so successful projects wont always find loop holes to back out from payments
that's a great solution. With the escrow, at least this can be used as a guarantee for bounty hunters, so that after the project is complete, bounty hunters can get an honest payment and can feel their hard work while promoting the project. I think other bounty hunters agree with this as well.
It would have been great if escrow will be used in bounties, but sadly most bounties aren't guaranteed and most of them are actually scam bounties managed by scammers themselves, sometimes the bounty campaign owners act like they are real and along the road they just disappear, but if you want to get your reward after every bounty campaign then stick to participating in bounty that are been managed by reputable bounty managers in this forum and stay away from bounties managed by newbie accounts it's likely to be a scam.
Bounty managers of this forum it's time to wisen up, I know few bounty managers are already doing this but majority aren't, top rated crypto projects that raised millions of dollars successfully are finding it very very hard to pay Bounty Hunters their tokens after all the hardwork talkless of med rated crypto projects, they feel reluctant to pay bounty hunters reward so I'm begging you guys to start compulsory Escrow, if every bounty managers they seek ask for Escrow they won't have any choice but to comply
This is a cryptocurrency, here no one owes anything to anyone, Nikito does not regulate this field. Even if the project agrees to such conditions, then they will all pay the rewards in the form of tokens, which may not cost anything for a long time, or not enter the market at all. Is this what you want?
It is best if projects will leave a deposit in the form of stablecoins, but where does the project get money without raising funds?
It's always a tug of war after bounty campaigns ends, the next question from bounty hunters is when payment, only very promising team members pays bounty rewards in time without giving the bounty hunters headache, if you can follow reputable bounty managers you will surely get paid.
Maybe the problem is not with the team that doesn't pay the bounty but more about the bounty hunter who doesn't research everything before they get in? There are so many bounties right now in the world that you can apply to and it is obvious that not every single one of them could ever make you profit from it, if it was the case all you would have to do is apply for airdrops and bounties all day which would take maybe one hour per day and from all the money you get from them you would be living very good life without having to work for it.
Free money doesn't exist, you either work for it or get scammed about it, that is the only option you have. However if you want to make sure not to get scammed, I would say take a look at escrow before anything else, because if the money is escrowed usually they do end up paying up.

I completely agree with you, most cryptocurrency companies that conduct bounties do not want to pay bounty hunters their hard-earned tokens and unfortunately it is always difficult to do something with this, and I myself think that the best option for getting out of such situations is, of course, every bounty campaign must be Escrowed.
I believe there are tons of bounty managers in the forum anyway, so there is no reason to not work with them, they are quite good enough to be actually valuable for everyone in the end, if you could pay them the money beforehand they would look like escrow but at the same time they are going to work for you as well, you are not only giving them the money to distribute but you are also paying them a salary to work for you as well. That way you would get your requirements ready, whatever social media or wherever else you want bounties you would give the list and you will just sit back and relax and watch people work, it is hassle free and it will not take more than 24 hours to get an agreement with a bounty hunter neither.
This is a great deal but many shady projects decline it for obvious reasons.

Escrow is a great choice, but many bounty Managers haven't been able to get it. As only the firmness of a BM is needed, like a BM that threatens to make a SCAM Thread if the payment for the Bounty Hunter is not paid immediately, that's a form of responsibility and firmnes
One of the reason for it is bounty managers themselves are not professional enough. When there are rookie bounty manager running a bounty, they are ready to compromise in most things. And another reason is greed, the once popular bounty manager atriz saw himself fall from fame just because he thought it was good to keep promoting a scam even after he'd realized it is. A professional bounty manager should always escrow the rewards wherever possible and stop promoting anything that's know to be a scam.
It's cruelty seeing the projects you promote turned successful and still decide not to pay their promoters, if the bounty manager can't do anything about it promoters should fight for themselves, if promoters can spread good things about a project they can take all that back as well.
Its totally agreeable knowing that several of the projects are now successful and growing time to time but there are some of it tends to forget or totally do not give the right rewards the bounty hunters should earn from a very long period of time promoting them. If this will be done by all the bounty managers it will be a plus points to them and it will boost their reputation for being one of the best BM this forum have. Also, BM should always consider the hard-work as well as the effort and time of every hunters in every bounty campaigns that they are managing so it will be a win-win to all of us.

I have to blunt about this but that is simply the truth. This has been discussed over and over for years now and the community never seem to have any sort of consensus on this. Many posters of similar threads have sprouted many years ago and still being discussed until now. I don't really want to be pessimistic because many support this idea but this is deregulated space that we are lurking in. It is almost like an anarchy state where companies and token and coin developers have a full say on what they could do on their respective projects. Bounty hunters are simply marketing tools for them and if they say they cannot pay them then unfortunately nobody can force them to pay. It is sad, really sad to think that all years work will be worth nothing.

Which projects are you talking about, if they are not able to provide what is promised then you can very well start a scam accusation against them which will give you a general idea what is going on. I am not following the altcoin bounties and hence i am not aware of the situation but the prominent managers who take up promotions always escrow the funds as far as i have seen.
It is really awful for the part of the bounty hunters to experience such thing that they are not being paid right based on their work done on promoting a certain project. I cannot take it how such team developers are having such attitude wanting their project to be promoted but once goal have been achieved is they are already leaving the bounty hunters that have worked for them unpaid or if ever paid, it was not basically based on what is stated on the bounty details. Bounty managers must not be the ones to be blamed for they are also just hired to do their tasks. The overall blame must be on the developer team. So before you engage on the bounty, better check first the bounty manager if it is trusted and if the team developer behind the project is reliable.
True, many new projects takes bounty hunters for granted, they used us and dump us as if we are nobody who have no right, who am I to blame them though? Instead I would drop the blame on bounty managers who aren't capable of securing their bounty hunters fund or make sure they right for bounty hunters right.
What can a manager do if the team don't want to pay the hunters? A manager can request the team in this case, he does not have the power to do more than that. As easy as it looks, I don't think it will be so easy in reality. If it were easy, no manager would want his hunters not to pay and his reputation to be ruined.
In this case, what I do suggest is to bring the team under some rules, such as if they want to run a bounty in this forum, they have to secure the payment by a selected person from forum authority. Otherwise the team have to handover the payment within 1 week of starting campaign, campaign manager will distribute it in time.
It's a good decision, if only Escrowed bounties are allowed in the forum. The projects would have to indicate their seriousness by agreeing to Escrow the reward and the bounty hunters would be rest assured that payments for the labour would be given.
Do not immediately say this is a good decision, because every decision needs very careful consideration to carry out, because everyone who holds the bounty always has different work to complete, including the role of a manager and the role of an escrowed.

There's already a dozens thread discussing about escrowing the bounty reward, but until now even though the reward aren't escrowed yet, why you need to join it? 
You need to start ignore any bounty without escrow and only joinning with an escrowed bounty. So it will force many bounties to take escrow.

The problem was most of bounty nowadays are not reading anymore forum discussion. They are not informed what's going in here because they are just spamming the forum with nonsense post then leave once they reach post quota or posting there social weekly social media report. There is no way to control bounty campaign by means of telling everyone to join it. Its easier to let the bounty manager do that job.
The only problem on escrowing funds on bounty campaign was, even though bounty manager escrow the token fund, there is no guarantee that it will have value after the campaign.

Absolutely a thing that bounty hunters have to look at. Some go for unsecured funds because they know whos managing the campaign and the trust given to the manager instead. But that is different from the case when a newbie/low-rank, or new campaign manager handling it which is very risky when there is no escrowed assign to hold the funds.You need to start ignore any bounty without escrow and only joinning with an escrowed bounty. So it will force many bounties to take escrow.
However, the risk is already a part of a bounty hunter. Can't neglect to say then that some reputable manager sometimes messed it up and ended promoting a scam project.

Bounty hunters and managers should unite so they can compel those who wants to launch a campaign here to do an escrow, that way developers have no choice but to giver and do an escrow, right now bounty managers are divided and they always give in to the terms of the developers, if at least 5 managers bind together to do this then we can implement this.
