Title: Dont waste your time joining with "Abusive Bounty Campaigns!"
Post by: masterrex on June 26, 2019, 12:53:14 PM
Have you notice lately that most of the Bounties are just allocating smaller Budget Pool in all of its campaigns and requiring too much work, unfixed length of weeks, requiring KYC with too strict requirements to pass, "in exchange for pennies" extending the Bounty for more weeks with the same budget pool. for me its a form of abuse, despite that the bounties are not forcing anyone to join. dont just sell your data for a few pennies.

Yes we shouldn't join "abusive" ones. But believe me there are good ones, and with the bullrun you can earn thousands of dollars. I earned before, and aim to earn again. So check the project, check their allocation, check when they're going to an exchange and when your tokens will be released/distributed. Some of them are really worth working.

I personally will think even more if I do KYC for a bounty with rewards not in accordance with our data, let alone doing it too long

Yes, I already noticed it for a long time. Even the style of writing the conditions for joining the bouting campaigns of ICO in many cases has changed a lot lately. It draws attention to the fact that they can deduct anyone at their discretion and do not pay anything, they can change any rules of the agreement, and this is already unacceptable, since in fact there are no agreements in this case. For bounty hunters, such conditions are very humiliating. Moreover, not even a very large pool, which is allocated for ICO bounty campaigns, in the end they sometimes arbitrarily reduce various reasons at times for a reason, sometimes up to ten times.
KYC verification has long been a way of cheating in order not to pay many hunters earned tokens.
I try not to join similar projects of ICO, however there are too many of them now. I hope for government regulation of this type of activity.

Yes there are many fishy bounties out there. at first, they didnt require KYC and when the distribution comes, they implement KYC. I have participated in a bounty, they cut our rewards because the coin is mooning. It is injustice for us bounty hunters.

You have to be really careful when picking a bounty. I checked some of the bounties and they give 20 usd worth of coin for 10 weeks of participation. However some of them pay really nice more than 200usd for some facebook work and they are really really high quality projects.
But most are them are bad...

But it's also true like that because making coins is easy but raising funds is difficult.
Bounty has a positive and negative effect as a result of coin sales revenue, if the coin fails to meet the sale of money then the bounty hunter cannot get a prize.

We need to analyze this and this must also have a group to analyze all projects from cryptocurrencies, whether the cryptocurency will be a SCAM or success in the market.

Joining a bounties right now, also require a lot of effort to research about the project  and also their reward pool. It does not mean because we do the KYC we receive the reward. I've join bounties in the past. I passed the KYC but still I don't receive  my reward.

KYC for bounty campaigns is not necessary, by participants are not direct investors.
I think the ICO era is over, and the "hunting for bounty" period has also ended, bounty campaigns need to decrease requirements and find more effective new campaigns.

Seriously, some bounties are a total waste of time. They don't have respect for the workers and neither do they compensate with good number of valuable tokens

It is not some but many bounties exactly. We already experienced so many bounties in this forum turned to failed and even scam projects. It makes many people got nothing after working a long time. It is better to analyze the project carefully when you want to join a bounty program.

Yes, that is true when our personal data is given and some of them request telephone numbers and Regular ID as payment of taxes and electricity bills, which are very dangerous for everyone.
our data will be used to deceive someone, there are many projects and I am always careful in choosing Bounties and always see the details of each project

i have decided to abandone bounties promising huge amount of returns. most of them are wash and have no values. most lengthy bounties ended up not meeting softcap. currently, i am only following bounties that are trading already on exchanges. NO time to waste.

Requirement of KYC is common thing in bounties most of the project ask us to do kyc in order to get reward for bounty work. Extension of bounties are due to not achieving the project targets that's they extend the bounties. Yes we are not forced to join bounties that require kyc its totally depend on us whether to join such bounties or not. Due to high number of participation we receive quite less rewards as compare to 2017.

At the start of campaign, they do not request KYC, when the distribution is gonna start they ask KYC. Actually, If I trust to the project I complete KYC. From now on It is a necessity for bounties.

I'm pretty positive if bounty hunters simply uses one account to takes bounty campaign then they'll take a great deal of thanks to recognize additional regarding the project itself before he takes dispense with it.

But if they need a great deal of elevation account they'll select bounty campaign every which way, as a result of they need an idea if the project find yourself with scam they still have an opportunity to a different elevation account that select another comes.

I totally agree with OP's idea. Obviously no one wants more tasks in exchange for zero or few extra bucks. Besides, I'm generally against those bounties requiring KYC. A good manager is the one who asks for more allocation for extra bounty time. That's why bounty manager is an important factor to identify a good bounty.

this is the end result of a dishonest and inconsequential gift campaign. many of the bounty hunter members are disappointed and reluctant to return. They feel that they are only wasting waste of time if they continue to take part in the gift campaign program.

Abusive campaigns mostly happened in the last year [2018]. At that time, many campaigns resulted in almost no money and many of them ended with failed or scam issues. Too bad days for bounty hunters, there were many bounty hunters to decide quit at the last year. But in 2019, some bounties seem already better than before. Moreover, they tend to provide IEOs or STOs than ICOs.

Many times we have encounter that kind of strategies  by the bounty campaign, they extend more they want for few months just to allocate more funds it happened last year 2018 but now many of them got unpaid or unfinished campaign. Where is the justice afterall. Better to keep on touch how seriously the campaign is.

There are some factors to consider before deciding to join bounty programs.  They are the legit project,  amount of participants,  high token allocation and percentage,  and also the trusted BM. If it has small alocation with many participants,  it means nothing. We will really work for frew.

you are right, but sometimes we don't see the bounties that is going to abuse it's hunters.  Like some bounties still located high rewards and then change the rewards at the end of the bounty. So it's better to be on a honest bounty

Yeah most of the bounties now are having the same thing unlike before the allocation are pretty good. Another thing is if the project of that bounty is successfully some bounty manager manipulating the allocations of the tokens and sometimes they are not paying the bounty hunters.

I only follow a bounty of no less than 12 weeks. I avoid bounties that use KYC. KYC for me is quite complicated. bounty that I follow at least 6-9 weeks.

allocating smaller Budget Pool in all of its campaigns and requiring too much work,

I do not see anything wrong with this as long as the pool has been very clear from the start. Ignore if you find it too small for you.

unfixed length of weeks...
Yeah, this is a weak campaign if they have this "until ICO ends" but with no specific date for ICO.

...extending the Bounty for more weeks with the same budget pool
I also do not like this practice. In a regular job, an employee is paid overtime for the extra hours and extra work. The same should be applied to bounties extending the campaign.

requiring KYC with too strict requirements to pass, "in exchange for pennies" . for me its a form of abuse, despite that the bounties are not forcing anyone to join. dont just sell your data for a few pennies.
I don't see this as abusive as those mentioned above. I've been part of a team that has to require KYC since it was an advise they got from their legal team.



I'd like to add the slashing of bounty pool and the adding requirements at the end of the campaign like voting on certain exchanges.

I think that I will decide whether I should jin that kind of bounty or not. If the participants are limited and small enough, why not? But, if there is no limit, leave that.

You do the right way. 12 weeks is the maximum time in bounties. I think more than 12 weeks are too hard to do. I don't want to spend too many times just a bounty program. Moreover, if the bounty program will end with scam issue. It is very unfortunate and disappointing.

Yes, when the bounty manager limits the number of participants, it is no problem to join. There some bounty managers that do this way to make the income for bounty hunters make sense. However, we must be careful to count the possible results.

Since there were many bounties ended with bad results, I become more selective to choose bounties to join. If I found something bad in the bounties, then I will never think to join the bounties. But If they have special things, I will join the bounty programs.

I have known crypto for almost a year and joined as a bounty hunter, until now I have completed 5 projects but only one can be disbursed and enjoyed the results of the bounty, now I have another project process, I am sure one day I will be able to enjoy these bounties and I don't feel like spending time in vain.

Sometimes campaigns lasting four to five weeks are successful in terms of profits. I choose the duration of a generosity campaign for more than three months; if I liked the project very much, I also try not to join very long campaigns. After all, if it turns out to be unsuccessful, too much time will be lost.
I also avoid bounty campaigns that require KYC passing. I do this if there is no other way out to complete my participation.

I am not agree to share KYC in bounty program,  because I see too many bounty is scam.  I doubt my personal ID.  I think It is waste the time joining with abusive bounty campaign.  We must be carreful  and lear the bounty project

You are right, Bounty that have extended the duration of campaign without additional for allocations these kinds of bounty are not worth anything to do some works on, they abuse the hunters making their efforts comes into waste for getting small amount after the campaign. The dates of campaigns should be fixed, no matter what happens in their ICO or IEO.

There are so many airdrop that I participated since last year 2018 that promised to reward us for helping to promote the project and also the bounty campaign but not all of them that rewarded us for doing the bounty campaign that's a whole lot of time wasted and also abusive airdrop and bounty participation, I think that's why some people select some bounty and airdrop to join.

That's why we must be smarter to know the best one. To get good bounties, we must be more selective and do deeper research. Since many scammers try to get advantages from creating scam bounties, we need to know how the characteristics. In this way, we can avoid it.

I completely agree with you, now there is a lot of companies where the bounty pool is a couple of thousand dollars and you need to do a lot of work and the most important thing is that such bounties usually last a very long time, so I do not enter into such bounty companies.
