Please,
show me your
high quality work.
It's not a win for the signature campaign. It doesn't matter if a person is spamming or not, they are getting the exposure they want either way.
That's not exactly true. People tend to put spammers on their ignore list, and when someone is ignored their post (and their signature as well) doesn't show up in a thread. So a campaign full of spammers is receiving less exposure than a campaign with no spammers, because chances are lots of people will be ignoring the spammers. Plus, having a campaign full of spammers doesn't give the advertised website a good reputation. I'm not inclined to use YoBit or recommend it to others, partially because of how they manage their signature campaign. It seems that they don't really care about the Bitcointalk community, because of how irresponsible they are when it comes to spammers in their signature campaign. If they can't properly manage a signature campaign, how can I trust them with my crypto?
I have to agree with most of what guitarplinker said here.
You can add secondstrades to the list, I'm not going to touch that with a 10 inch pole,
mainly because they fail to run even the most simple signature campaign with any organisation and control of rules.
That being said, I'm afraid most brands/advertisers currently tend to think otherwise.
They think low rates and many posts equal many times the signatures getting shown, and hence a good adverting results.
Once we've crossed a point where advertisers realize that a) this doesn't work out anymore, neither for them nor the forum, and b) their name takes more damage than it benefits,
we might get less sig spam threads/hunts/whatever.
But IMO, we're still far from that, if only it's ever going to be achieved.
I saw that Rollin.io has a bounty sistem system.
So does crypto-games.net, for seven months now.
I've never gotten a single report, either because users don't care for the bounty, or because there are no enrolled users to report in my campaigns, pick one.
As for what I saw around managers aren't quite doing their jobs!
Thanks for the free insult, I tend to think I
(and some other managers) am
(/are) doing my
(/their) job quite alright.
Most of what I'm doing however isn't even visible to you, so how would you know whether or not I'm good at it?
As for the visible part, my campaigns all got a pretty decent (/even high) standard
(as a few other campaigns, but by far not all) for post quality.
