Bounty Managers and Shit projects

[sujonali1819]

Actually, now a days most of the bounty projects and managers are thinking same thing, that is they only thinking about their own pocket. Don't investigate before running any campaign is fake/real. Very rear manager only do that. Atleast they escrowed the token.

And other things is most of the bounty managers are very lower rank. Always they hiding their original account. That means they know project could be scam, but for lower rank they don't care about red tag.

New bounty managers cause most problems on here, they have no knowledge about legit projects yet they take the job only because their payment is assured, only bubbalex cares more about his bounty hunters, the best bounty manager I ever known

In fact, we cannot blame the performance of a prize manager if the bounty project he holds is a project scam, because after all a gift manager will receive their payment after the project is finished and it is not their job to distribute payments to participants because it is usually the development of team that does it So if the bounty participant does not get paid, it can be ascertained if the manager also does not receive their payment, in my opinion it is not possible to managers will risk positive trust only to handle project scams.

A large number of projects have failed due to many circumstances: Market situation, lack of investor confidence, scam projects that have damaged crypto space. I have sincerely seen a worrying decline this year for ICO and other projects.
I must admit that the work of Bounty manager and the bounty hunter is in critical condition.
However, I wish we had a better time because I like to be a bounty hunter.

For some people, earning money is all they are interested in as to whether the source is good or bad. Such people are in  the crypto space only for their selfish interest and do not care if others fall victim to scam schemes. That is how life goes for some people, some bounty managers or community managers will always choose money over integrity.

Bounty managers are divided into many groups. There are some of them that they are doing it mainly to earn income and this group of managers is not different from bounty participants. They care less about what happened as long as they have been paid. They are the managers that will tell you from the beginning that they are not responsible for bla bla bla. The other categories of the managers are the ones that has integrities and they put this above any other things. Most of them have a high reputation and they do not want to lose their reputation. They have strict rules regarding bounty participation and they can go in any length fo fight for the right of the bounty participants. Most time they manage few bounty campaign.

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?

This is a healthy point and i encourage for it to see the light of the day, some bounty hunters are seriously loosing interests in working for projects aand that has a negative impact on the more realistic projects. i have been in the space for 3 years now, the approach is entirely differrent compared to the 2016 and 2017 era.

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.

I want to ask you bounty manager, what do you see until you judge that the project you are managing is a good project? The average project you've managed recently has ended badly

Btw, why don't you ask to use Escrow so that payment can be guaranteed security

i think manager should know the project better before they manage it and accept those joiners and the participant should do their part also through checking the project or its better if they participate in a popular project because there's possibility you're in a good project. Shit project are everywhere so we must be more careful and take time to know it.

Popular bounty managers do promote shit projects as well, even arteezy promotes few bad projects and till date they never paid hunters, bounties are now based on luck so let's keep our eye peeled

Yes, that's right, some projects held by Arteezy have not paid the hunters, even those that have been paid have no tokens at all in the exchange, and payments for projects held by Arteezy always take place over a long period, things like this of course we must supervise so that our time is not wasted.

true mate, need long time to recieved bounty payment from campaign that managed by arteezy. most of this have same condition , we dont know why arteezy or team request escrow to developer team so no one will harmed if dev team postponed project building.

This here sums up the whole gamut of the problem - greed of some bounty managers. They really don't give a damn about bounty workers/hunters and their wages (rewards) so long they the managers get paid, that's all. It's a wrong altitude and things aren't going to change with this mindset. This is where bounty workers should begin to get wise and participate only in bounties run by reputable and trusted managers. I have also had my little share of wasted efforts too but I have learnt now. I follow a few BMs now.

[casperBGD]

there are two main types of projects that fail at the end, first is scam from the beginning and that should be easier to recognized due to documentation, telegram channels, team response and similar, but second is project that is good, with viable idea, good plan, but poor management that could not pull it out to profitability in this ICO crisis, since which day is heavier and heavier to acquire funds for project development

sometimes also, it is just poor planning, and unreasonable token price, if you plan product, without solution at the moment, and try to acquire 10 million USD for an idea, that has no product whatsoever at the moment, it is very optimistic

[Teraboy]

It's quite hard sometimes to evaluate the project and find out whether its bounty is worthy or not. Bounty managers are trying to earn here by doing their job properly. They can't predict everything.

I think we have so many ways to identify which is the scam project and which is not a scam project. It can be done through what kind of MVP that already created by the team and many more. It's not easy but at least we can try so many efforts to make sure if the project that will use our service is not a bad project.

Some bounty managers don't care about which project survives, all they care about is there payment, some just ant to use hunters and get paid from dev and move on to next project. Well now, hunters are getting wiser and not just working for campaign without checking out the team and plan odmf the project if it's legit or scam.

This is not the first time we see such cases, bounty managers should be responsible and never accept the offers from the unknown teams. The shady conversations behind the scene can kill the reputation of the project if the scam accusation threads start to appear. Scam projects will be always reachable for the newbies because getting involved in the scam project is easier than making an decent research.

we don't need to blame the bounty manager because their work only counts allocations and oversees the work of bounty hunters, we as bounty hunters ourselves must choose and examine the projects we want to participate in because now many projects are not successful because they don't get the maximum funding to develop projects

What are you saying? anyone who gets involve in a project is at fault, not just campaign managers. You as a bounty hunter is at fault too because you have the ability to research a project before participating in, it's not like everything is in private. We are at an information age where you can choose to accept or not from unknown projects. Not to mention that bounty hunters are the main source of advertisement of a project. Blaming bounty managers for everything is just absurd.

Also, it's not like bounty managers are the only one who cares little about the project. Bounty managers and bounty hunters are alike, they are greedy. Most bounty hunters are just as greedy campaign managers. As long as they see profit in it, they will go with the flow. I'm not saying all here, just most.

[TanakabZX]

Bounty managers did their parts too, it's same thing when try to choose a project to promote, that's why is a necessary thing to do research even if a project is coming from a very well respected bounty managers, anyone is bound to do mistakes

I think the bounty manager is only in charge of managing the bounty campaign and they never know the exact project that is being done or the product produced. Regarding whether the project is good or not, the bounty manager or investor always looks at the whitepaper and I think if the bounty hunter feels cheated, the bounty manager in my opinion also experiences the same thing unless they are paid in cash or bitcoin or ethereum
