Hello, please how many people are using bitcointalk forum? I have heard that there are registered about 2 million accounts. But probably there are more accounts than real people. I see that there are many junior and newbies accounts, probably they are quite new, so is there any statistics about new members? I think most of them only want to earn here. How many of all members wear signature and are registered in signature campaigns?
I just wondering about the future of this forum, the signature campaigns and the bounties. If everyone will do bounty and signature, then there will be no future, right?
You are right, the number of registered profiles is much higher than actual number of real people behind them. There are many profiles that were banned or there are some profiles belong to one person. I think making money through different campaigns is one of the main targets why people come here, it is somewhere between two other targets: to know more about bitcoin and to sell something through the forum. While the commercial performed by signature/bounty campaigns works and attract investors or users to the product, all this will continue to function as long as demand for such kind of work is going to be on the necessary level. I do not like to talk about far far future, but I expect that signature/bounty campaigns will be trendy for several years more. Yes, they are too many registered accounts lately and they are all newcomers in the forum and some of them maybe did not pass on the merit system implemented by admin theymos, they were stuck on Jr. member rank so, I think from now on the bounty/signature participants were lessen. Probably they stopped working in the forum because of low rate in Jr. member rank to make a profit. So, we are lucky for them that we had already this rank before merit implemented, and it takes a year before you've reached a higher rank.

But I think that it is impossible, there are a lot of ICOs now and people are less interested in investing to the ICOs.

It does not has any relation with the future of signature campaign, but I agree the fact the ICOs has become less interested for newcomers due to recent stricter governmental rules in many countries around the globe. Honestly, I think this new movement is good for the crypto ecosystem, in general, and will help to protect newcomers, naive investors from greedy scammers (who are abundant in the crypto world).

users are Divided into different distinction, there are people like what OP said that make money through all kinds of campaigns, while others are just roaming around checking some legit projects to invest, and others are looking for a member of a team to be made. in bitcoin discussion there are people who discuss about bitcoin, but not all thread are pertaining to bitcoin discussion. in meta section there you'll see admin, developers, DT members and moderators, So in other words, there are more newbies and jr members because the community is growing but the sad part is some are taking advantage, However, Merit is implemented, DT members are now more strict, and admin and devs are now doing great things.

This is what happens when one has no work give advice on something one doesn't understand or has done.
Ps signature campaigns is not easy and whoever told you, he lied period.
People participating in signature campaigns are often soft target, but what you'll fail to see we don't get paid for shitty posts, one liners plus on top we need to make sure we follow the guidelines which you free folks abuse at will.
I don't know merits stats but contact darkstar and ask him for the stats that his signature campaigners have made, and if he is in the mood overall signature Campainers more than you free folks week after week.
Signature campaigns is a way where people are earning and earning good, and this forum should keep it as it is.
There's always a report button don't like a post report it or report to the campaign manager he'll take care of it.

some people who join here (older) most of them join in bounty campaign especially signature, some (beginner) maybe they just want to just ask or seek a new learning, maybe this has become a natural thing for everyone because they want to have additional income

I don't know merits stats but contact darkstar and ask him for the stats that his signature campaigners have made,
He keeps his stats on the Chipmixer spreadsheet for all to see, which I think is a nice touch on his part. Though I think all campaigns ought to have higher standards, I like the fact that he's recruited some of the most merited and trusted members of bitcointalk to participate in that one. Glad to be part of it. I would disagree that being in a sig campaign isn't an easy job. It is true that it's hard to get into one if you're an illiterate spammer, but if you know how to write and have thoughts worth putting onto the screen, it's fairly easy. Now, would I be saying that if campaigns only paid in Arabic or French? Absolutely not, because I don't know either language--so I get it, it's a matter of perspective. On the other hand, I wouldn't even consider joining such a campaign. That's the difference between the average low-ranked bounty participant and myself. I know my limitations and I don't think using google translate is a viable solution to posting on bitcointalk.

I think future is bright for the signature campaigns after twitter and FB both restricted ICO advertisements. Also, merit system definitely reduced multi-accounts and spammers count. If bounty managers will check every post manually and kick out one-liner spammers, it would make signature campaigns even more appealing.
I discovered that once you change your signature, it changed on each previous post, so people can do several bounties at once if BM is not carefully checking each member. I suggest making a signature permanent, unless you manually edit your old post, leaving different time stamp.

Not having trust nor merit over time does not qualify for locking an account. Providing you stick to forum rules, don't post crap constantly and don't belong to a group of farmed accounts you should be Ok. I've seen that you've recently retaken activity on the forum after just over 5 months of inactivity, so it would be good if you read all about the Merit System here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2818350.0. Read through the whole thread to get a hang of it and not just the OP.

Actually , Signature campain can give us more knowledge in terms of crypocurrency/bitcoin . For me , those forums are big help. Since ,Im still new here and i dont have a lot of knowledge in this. I read in forums and i learned from those. You can have a future in signature campaign.

I read in forums and i learned from those. They dont. Signature campaigns are a method to monetize the signature spaces of well known members of the forum in order to advertise some product service or ICO. If you are looking to knowledge on crypto you should read their wiki and read the threads posted in the forum. Posting in threads come a long time after you have known everything. Read more and observe more than you speak.You can have a future in signature campaign. Definitely the one reason why shitposters flock in this forum and why this forum went to the trashcan in the face of horrible bounty managers coming up like toadstools.

I think signature campaigns are also a method to spread Bitcoin's adoption. Many people who never owned a bitcoin or any other crypto come here and become spammers/shitposters, or maybe even a good forum member, and receive his first cryptos by doing sig/bounties.

There are currently: 1993947 users registered here. I'd suggest that's probably about 100000-200000 people (as one user probably has an average of 10-20 alts I'd reckon based on what I've witnessed here).
I assume the majority have used their signature for something. At least half will be in some sort of signature/bounty campaign I assume.
There will now be a greater amount of Jr Members and Newbies that are just stuck where they are (if they write bad posts then they won't get any merit and won't be able to go up in rank).
Signature campaigns are quite a good way at keeping good quality posters at the forum, but if campaign managers don't moderate it too well, this is where the massive amount of spam comes from as users get free money for writing useless posts.
There are already fewer signature campaigns for newbie and Jr members, however, bounty campaigns still include them sometimes so that might lead to a larger amount of spam. There are more veteran members who spam but they usually care more about their accounts than a brand new member will as a brand new member can just ditch their account.
Wow, it is real that every person has an average of 10 accounts? It is not against the rules? They are using their multi accounts only for signature campaigns right? I think the bounty KYC solves the problem of multiple accounts as long as they join a bounty program, but if they use multiple accounts for different campaigns it will be very difficult to prevent this.

If all projects are not even scanned or let say approved by the staff here before creating their announcement and making their official bounty threads is like also welcoming all scam project to gather money for everyone around here isn't it, the lesser and lesser will join bounty campaign to avoid them and they will just wait for this token to be on exchange before investing, in this way ICO project wilm die here and spam posting will be reduce ever!!!!

Most people here are not here because of signature campaign. Most people are here just to learn how crytpocurrency works and it's application to real life use. Everyone can't be doing signature campaign.

I think signature campaigns are also a method to spread Bitcoin's adoption. On a lighter note this is true but then there are many people here who came here just to make money from shitposting. Generally if you are posting quality posts and keeping up the with the discussions then its generally not an issue. Many people who never owned a bitcoin or any other crypto come here and become spammers/shitposters, Literally correct. But then this forum is not your source of earning. Campaings are a side earning that people get while posting some worthy content here. or maybe even a good forum member, and receive his first cryptos by doing sig/bounties. One should not look into signature or bounty earnings from that perspective. That is the "Who does not like free money" perspective - root cause of spam and other things. If all projects are not even scanned or let say approved by the staff here before creating their announcement and making their official bounty threads is like also welcoming all scam project to gather money for everyone around here isn't it, the lesser and lesser will join bounty campaign to avoid them and they will just wait for this token to be on exchange before investing, in this way ICO project wilm die here and spam posting will be reduce ever!!!!
In my opinion so-called "bounty hunters" are the biggest bunch of scumbags running after shittokens and turning this forum into a shithole. If you want to invest in some ICO then you should gather up some money to buy the coins. That is the best method to support them and show your interest in them.

Personally, I would like to see the end of signature campaigns. Too many threads are just people spamming with a "oh yes, i agree/disagree" response, just to get their sig count up. Get rid of signature campaigns and postings would drop by 3/4 but be a darn sight more useful.
