I notice that in Social Media Campaign like FaceBook,Twitter, etc. If you have more thant 10K Followers/Friends your stakes will double is it fair? to other bounty participants for me its not. Since all the participants are promoting the same platform and the same social media sites I believe that the good marketing practice is not in quantity but in quality to send the marketing message that embedded in it. unlike Bitcointalk rank this ranking system is earned through hardwork but in social media its different. it can be cheated! this is my personal opinion and not attacking Anyone Im just expressing my side about this double stake policy when you have a 10k followers/friends. in social media. any thought?
I agree with your point regarding cheating by increasing the number of followers or friends using different methods such as buying followers. This gives a disadvantage to honest bounty participants. However, bounty managers/ICO managers always try to reach the maximum audience to promote their ICOs. That's why they are encouraging people with large number of friends and followers to participate in their bounty programs by giving higher stakes. They have taken some steps such as asking for twitteraudit score in order to filter such cheaters. Personally I don't think that those steps are enough as cheaters are smart enough to bypass such filters.
