I’ve decide to open this thread after seeing that Lutpin has been red tagged again by The Pharmacist.
To make a long story short: over a year ago, I applied for the 777coin signature campaign, managed by him, and I was accepted. Everything looked good; he was one of the most trusted guys on the forum and was managing other campaigns.
At first, we were being paid weekly, quite regularly. At some point, we had a delay apparently because the escrow hadn’t been refilled on time. Then, we went on to two-weeks rounds, and we sometimes got paid on time but other times we had double or triple (two-week) rounds because apparently, the forum at the time of counting was under DDS attack of because the escrow hadn’t been refilled or something.
When we were having delays, Lutpin wasn’t saying anything because he didn’t find it necessary.
Then, last summer we were almost 12 weeks without getting paid. That was too much, and
LFC_Bitcoin bumped an old scam accusation about the campaign. Many people got aware of the situation and The Pharmacist gave red trust to Lightlord, and I also think he gave it to Lutpin at that time but I’m not 100% sure.
Finally, Lutpin appeared and said that it was his fault:
Lutpin doesn’t deserve a negative rating of course. I did one for lightlord but I’ll remove it when Lutpin pays us.
Since this is my fault, if anyone does, it is me.
We finally got paid, and some of us left the 777coin campaign.
I have to add that the bitvest.io campaign had a similar delay to ours but people weren’t complaining nearly as much. Also the bitblender campaign managed by him got some delays.
I wasn’t sure but I was supposing that, after that, he would resume somewhat regular payments or he would resign from managing the campaigns.
But today I’ve realized that
the bitblender campaign has been two months without payments, the 777coin campaign hasn’t been paid since we left it (September 23) and the bitvest.io campaign hasn’t been paid since October 6 (
when Lutpin got tagged by The Pharmacist)
This way of managing campaigns is not only annoying for participants, but also for applicants, who can wear a signature for months without knowing if they are accepted.
I think Lutpin hasn’t been red tagged by more people because of the previous green trust.
What do you think has happened to him?
I can think of personal trouble, but if I was in personal trouble for so long I would stop managing the campaigns.
Or maybe he is making too much money apart from the campaigns and he doesn’t care about his trust?
