Fighting for bounty hunters right

[dprincebh]

Hello friends,

Do you know of any organization in which bounty hunters can actually report in order to claim their right?, To be paid off their earning in which the campaign is holding.
    I participated in a bounty campaign for several months and now when it is actually time for distribution now they changes the rule and actually introduce new rules which lead to the disqualification of more than 95% of the bounty participants. Which is actually too painful.

It's risk.
Read general rules before join with any campaign.
Normally, they will write as follows :

We have the right to change the rules anytime.

So, you can't do anything when the rules are changed.

It's sad and we don't have any organization who can remediate such issues. But if you can provide enough evidences, open up a thread in scam acquisition section so that people can avoid investing in that ICO.

In business world, integrity is a big thing and people don't like to work with unethical companies. So going forward, aleays work with reputed campaign managers only. That reduces the chance of getting scammed after few months of hard work.

In this forum they have ways of going about it. It is important to have a reputable manager for campaign before you join, thats my fear sometimes for newbies handling campaign, they can easily back out after the campaign. More also you should be sure you didn't break the rule or claimed the reward late. I also hope you are not the only victim

Agreed that rules can be changed but I don't think that it is humane to change rules at late hours with the intention to push out many as far as 95% as OP said. If rules will be changed to affect such percentage of participants, I see it as fraud from the beginning or a fault of the owners of the campaign.

Sad to say that many bounty project always change their bounty rules after the ICO which will result for disqualification of many bounty participants. But, we need to accept the truth that they have a power to change the rule so all we need to do is to follow it.

I am not only the victim, almost all participants are victims

Bounty managers should be able to protect bounty particpants with various strategies like not letting the team to add rules like "we can change/edit/modify terms&conditions whenever we want/need". 50% of scam cases on  bounty campaigns are result of bad management in my opinion. If team refuses to pay bounty participants then why you don't open scam accusation against team and project..

[veekky]

Man, it is common story. A lot of hunters suffer from dishonest ICOs. The truth is that we don't have any organisation which can protect you from someone braking rules. I suggest you to cooperate with other hunters and do your best to black PR social networks of that ICO cheated with you

[5ensei]

Bounty hunters are not treated very well, especially at the end of the ICO when they already collected their rewards. Many will just take the money and run away, which leads to scam accusation threads and other bad press

I think that bounty hunters can only ruin the reputation of the project if they are doing something wrong or unfair. To get payments is impossible

[Omela44]

It would be nice if bounty hunter had more rights, but right now it looks like as bounty hunter can do nothing about it. It would be good if there was an organization that defended the rights of the bounty hunter.

[Wale777]

It is imperative for all bounty hunters to read the rules and regulations of bounty campaigns carefully and understand before filling the participation form because they always reserve the right to change the rules at any time so that you'll be safe from alleged injustice or mistreatment

[susila_bai]

That is why it is told that work only with good and known campaign managers who are always work for the bounty hunters and they dont support scam ICO. They are having strict rules but it is good for the bounty hunters.

[DAVETUN]

Before you can fight to win, ensure you obey all the rules pertaining  to the project, thou ICO  developers can change bounty rules, It should not be after the developers have raise the fund,what you can do is to form a coalition as bounty hunters and  come up with a write up on scam section. It is strategic to research before joining  a bounty.

[Gabteb]

Main rule read rules before joining,then check project info who are team,do your best to find more info about everything then check who is manager becouse there can be situation when ICO is scam then nothing would changed if you had that tokens in your wallet ,so most important think not to be scamed and there can be situation when ICO fail and you are not paid,its normal.

[panjay]

it's not only happening here on bitcointalk, some bounty platform like bounty0x can't do much if the involving ICO plan to reduce the rewards/delay the payment etc.

like the post above you can see we (bounty hunters) always the one with most risk, we bound with "general" rule like "the team has the right to change bla bla bla". That something we must realize and consider when choosing bounty, in a sense choose a proven bounty manager, DYOR etc.

[Alluro]

It's normal mate. Most bounty managers mention they can change the rules anytime on general rules. If you participated that bounty campaign, you already agreed with those rules. The please chose good projects before you start your works.

[karagun125]

I think there are none organizations that we can report upon bounty projects concerns. Also the campaign manager and staffs has the right on their projects, some says on their project that they may chabge the rule anytime. We just hope bow that there will be a good notice about this.
