Bounty Managers and Shit projects

[Iyanu14]

It's no more news that many of us would have had some horrible experiences participating in some resources wasting projects. However, my opinion is that, do bounty managers just accept hook line and sinker to manage bounty campaigns for any project without taking some time to look at the prospects of such project?  

I think there should be some experienced members of this forum apart from moderators (because moderators' works might be too enormous) that should be in charge of reviewing projects before bounty managers are allowed to create bounty and/or announcement threads for such projects.  If this can be done effectively, I think the advent of these unworthy projects can be mitigated.

To wrap it up, a bounty manager once told me when I called his attention to some unrealistic plans of the project he was managing, he said he is not concerned about the success of the project, once he gets his weekly payment from the team. I want to know if there are some levels of punishment for bounty managers that manage unworthy projects apart from negative trust?

I bet a huge % as long as they get paid in btc and not shitcurrency they will do it. Sadly such projects aren't minded by many and trying to critisize the managers can even get you in trouble as i experienced, I will admit i weren't very gentle either.

While I totally agree that not every project should be accepted by bounty managers, there's always some "guy" who will take it just because he has nothing better to do.
Over the past 3 years, I've declined tons of shit projects because they smelled of old fish from the start. Then again, I accepted very good projects that turned out to be bad in the end (team dissapears, or they refuse to pay out the bounty to hunters, etc..).

In the end, it's every hunters choice if he wants to take the risk and participate.

Can you please explain further by what you mean that someone can land into trouble by criticising the managers?

They could be given red trust by DT members, as far as I know.

Anyways, we have been in this business for many years, 2017 was a good time for bounty hunters and managers alike, but we found out that it won't go or continue in the next coming years. That's why we really need to be careful as to what projects we want to join. See lots of newbies bounty managers, might be a sign that the project itself might not pay or scam bounty hunters, just saying.

I have joined so many bounty and been paid by token or coin and untill now i still have token or coin thats useless and still waiting for exchange or no developent with the team for almost two years. You are good BM but the project is not good as you are

Stop cribbing about Bounty projects and those managing them. If you do not have the understanding to choose the right project then it is your fault not the managers or the project.

You are never forced to work for a project. There are scams and scammers every where, you need to identify them.

[Tipstar]

I don't think even the best of campaign manager does a thorough research about some project before accepting to host a bounty campaign for them. There are cases of good managers turning down outright scams and there are also cases of so called one of the best campaign manager destroying their career for promoting scam projects. There was a time when moderator gave almost every of the managers for promoting scams but it's also difficult for the managers and everyone to recognize ones.

[istiak2277]

They just care about money. Your idea is good in my opinion. There should be a special person just for reviewing bounty. He will suggest a bounty hunter listen to his advice before joining any project. I think that way if bounty hunter stops joining fake bounty then that bounty manager will stop promoting those too.

This means that the manager cannot prevent developers from really running away from investors' money, as they initially do well and are trustworthy and disappear after collecting funds.
This is actually very sad, for example like tele and exchange platforms like bcnex and vindax.

I have seen many times when bounty managers were given a negative trust for organizing promotions for scam projects, but I think that this punishment is very weak. the bounty manager is obliged to study the project to the smallest detail before providing it to other forum participants to participate

Now that can't be confirmed that there are already many projects like that at the beginning the project looks good but after time runs the team disappears and it's hard to contact at a time like the bounty manager who will be urged to ask for accountability.

Sometimes it is difficult to determine which projects are good from the beginning to the future there must do the research well so that it does not happen again as before.

It seems that bounty managers get paid in Bitcoin rather than the tokens of the project they wants to manage, that is why they don't care what happened to participants after bounty ends

Well said btcltcdigger, many don't understand that sometimes even bounty managers get helpless and there is nothing they can do about it, many bounty hunters like putting blame on bounty managers whereas it's not always bounty managers fault

Well, I got banned and negative rated for making a death threat towards the manager and promoter of a obvious scam that after been proven it was a scam. Anyhow I'm nearly certain no matter how drunk i were lucid enough to only admit i would do it and never claim I will which would make it not a death threat.

[joeperry]

I've handled signatures today and before and one of the things that I look is how their project works the only matters for me is as long as their project will not deceive others or scam others they should have given a chance to open their project for promotion and I think It's a bounty hunters responsibility on which campaign he/she would join and he/she has the right not to join the project if he/she sees it unprofitable or impossible project.

The only thing here is that not only bounty managers should be blame here since all of us has the rights to or not to.

[Slow death]

we need to look at the side of the bounty managers.

1 -) the maximum that the Bounty manager will do Is to confirm whether the team members are real or not

2 -) the maximum that the Bounty manager will do Is to confirm that the whitepaper has not been plagiarized

Complete analysis of the project must be done by the community, and when I speak of complete analysis of the project I speak about the question of sustainability of the project in the long term and this is not an easy task.

The only thing we can do is not to support projects that they are promoting, but getting a red tag and a flag is just enough for the project developer to think twice of not getting their service, it's the duty of the bounty manager to take care of his reputation and the bounty hunters that will participate on the project he is promoting.

[masterrex]

Thats the common practices nowadays, thats the reality as we speak it's all about money, thats why we can't blame some of those Bounty Managers because they need money thats why they can't resist from any offer, The burden was on the participant's side thats why it is better to check properly any bounty campaigns that we want to promote. don't just join like it was no tomorrow we must responsible for our own actions.

actually those bad managers that are managing the projects or signature campaign doesn't have any reliability on the succession of the project so if the project is failed to attain the maximum target of it that probably the project will be filled and the bounty managers are doesn't have any care about it what i am talking about those bounty manager doesn't have any credibility when it comes to the projects because they are just the one who is managing the campaign or the bounties.

There also are some greedy managers out there who would launch bounty campaigns for almost any project who might pay them. They might simply add a disclaimer to the thread and this might keep them safe even if the project appears to be a scam one. This is why most of the scam projects are yet dominating the bounties section. I liked the concept derived by OP.

There be some special moderators for bounties section who might closely monitor each and every bounty campaign. This would keep the bounty markets safer but those managers would actually need to do a lot of heavy work for perhaps no pay.
