Most cryptocurrencies in the pre-sale/ICO stages always embark on bounty campaigns. These bounty campaigns help those cryptocurrencies give them the required publicity and to also have a community. These campaigns are normally posted bitcointalk.org and bounty hunters embark on various aspects of the campaign that suits them and they give reports of work embarked on.
The reporting of work done in a bounty campaign could be done by post links to the work as a reply to the bounty thread or it could be done by post the links of the work in a Google doc. The link to the Google doc is usually posted in the bounty thread.
Recently, most of us that participate in various bounties have been noticing that some of the bounty threads are no longer accessible to the user. Once you try loading them, an error message will pop up.



For we the bounty hunters, whenever you come across the error message, it could be very disheartening especially when the reporting of the work is done as a reply to the bounty thread because we already know that we have done some free works. Free works in the sense that not all of our works will be recorded, some bounty managers leave the updating of stakes for several weeks or even months before doing so.
In all the occasions that I have come across the error message in the bounties that am a participant, I always ask the bounty managers, "if they are responsible for moving or deleting the thread". They always say that they are not responsible for that, that it could be the moderators of bitcointalk. Whenever an ongoing bounty thread is deleted for any reason, it always creates an additional work for the bounty manager, but the bounty hunters are the ones that bear the brunt of it.
As a way forward, whenever an ongoing  bounty thread is marked for deleting by the moderators for any reason, the moderators should notify the bounty manager that the bounty thread will be deleted, so he/she should quickly update his spreadsheet with the unread reports in the thread.
Secondly, the moderators could leave the campaign to elapse, once they finish, they can delete the campaign.

Thanks moderators for your efforts in making bitcointalk.org void of irrelevant comments.
