There are many idiots who don't even care to read if the bounty has ended and keep on applying. I have seen many bounties where the bounty has ended but people are submitting the social media reports on daily basis. Are they Robots ? How can one be so dump.
Usually bounty managers have to lock the threads to prevent this spam.
@op, that's not work, post busting is never counted as work but spam, and he might get a temporary ban if the bounty manager should take the case serious by reporting it to the forum admins.
@umerldrees, well, I can't say for sure if there are bots on this forum, but what I do know is that some of this people actually don't read, and this is because all they are concerned about is how to increase their post count with the anticipation that the bounty manager won't look at their post history but look at their post count to award them stakes for the week, though this only applies to those in signature campaigns.
But all the same, people like this will always exist here or anywhere else, like is commonly said, in every family, there's always a judas.
