First of all, we appreciate your concern. There are a few points we would like to make on our side.
1. We do not know what you have against self-escrow. As long as the participants are paid as due, what other problem is there? We hope to continue a long campaign and therefore will always pay our participants. Though our account is a newbie due to our company being also new, the people behind it have been on this forum for a long while and have considerable experience with such campaigns.
Does not seem to be very professional to me. And you have completed payment now, so i guess self escrowing is fine. Why you could not post from your accounts tho, instead of making a new one? If you were so sure about your managing skills, you would have used your main account instead of making a new alt.
We made this account as a company account. Those other accounts were our personal accounts.
2. The example you gave about the bounty poster did not show the whole picture as that person did not change their signature and therefore was not a true participant.
Does not matter, you still accepted him. The difference is that he did not get paid because of his own mistake, and you would have paid the user anyway with the signature. Therefore IT DOES show the whole picture, and the capability of the person behind the campaign that how poorly managed campaign this is.
It does matter because as we stated above, we read each and every post made by our participants. Even if that person did not make that mistake and kept our signature, they would not have been paid because their posts would have been considered spam. Our whole response was
2. The example you gave about the bounty poster did not show the whole picture as that person did not change their signature and therefore was not a true participant. The person in charge of managing this campaign reads each and every post made by its participants and has so far not found any post notably "spammy". If there was anyone who posted such as the example you had given, we would have warned them that such posts do not qualify and would result in that person being cut. Also, we do not see a problem if the reason our participants post is for bounty as long as they do not spam or make posts that are negative to this forum.
Thank you for your opinion and concern.
