Hello DarkStar_. How about adding a compulsory avatar for chipmixer campaign?

[bearexin]

If you do so, it will make lots of your participants calm from keep bumping their avatar and personal text threads.

At least 10 people from your campaign are trying to sell their avatar and personal text. You are paying the best of industry then why not make use of avatar and personal text spaces in favor of chipmixer.

Nothing personal here; just stating after watching such threads and their bumping frequency for months.

Edit:
As DarkStar_ has responded, I believe this topic had served its purposes. So, locking it out.

1. Why should you feel bad if they are advertising their avatar spaces... Hey it's a free place here so long as they aren't violenting any rules. It was the whole point of bitcoin, wasn't it?

2. I don't think your wish will come true. Just move along.

[Jawhead999]

Well, I never see they

I feel it is kind of blocking or even kind of spamming within rule.

Where is the spam for bumping the thread per month? since bumping the thread is allowed one per 24 hours.

13. Bumps, "updates" are limited to once per 24 hours.

As @logfiles said it's true, anyone feel free to advertising for their avatar space since chipmixer not adding a compulsory avatar for the campaign.

If someone is breaking the rules you should report them to moderators. What you're proposing sounds a bit silly but I'm obviously biased.

[PrimeNumber7]

Chipmixer pays between 3-5x as what one might expect to earn advertising for most other campaigns, depending on how you measure the rates. Most other campaigns require avatar space.

The current form of advertising is probably not the most efficient for Chipmixer compared to other campaigns. I am guessing they haven’t done any kind of market analysis to see how much they need to pay to maximize their advertising coin in quite some time.

[The Cryptovator]

I don't know why people are curious to create thread about Chimixer campaign nowadays. Chipmixer fully familiar with forum signature campaigns and besides that they have hired an experienced campaign manager. Most likely chipmixer gave freedom to their participants about their avatar and personal text. That's why manager doesn't required about it. Every companies have their own choice.

I don't see any harm whoever bumping their rent thread if they do not break forum rules. Admin allow to rent their signature, avatar & personal text place and they are looking for opportunities to rent out.

It's greed - Nothing more.

Where the SigCamp is making it's money is from the number of people talking about their campaign and how generous it is.  The name is bandied about and the "recognition" factor for search engines goes up and up.

If it's not personal, then why is it in Reputation?

FYI: I wore a ChipMixer avatar for quite a while, until I got swooped by the Merit Cycling Club.

I'm guessing they just don't mind the cost, and they do like Bitcointalk:

You cannot even trust Google on this

Some companies (Google) will advertise known scams. Some people (theymos) will not advertise possible scam (ICOs) even if it costs them (around 9 BTC per week). This is a reason why ChipMixer buy ads at this forum and not on Google.

[TheBeardedBaby]

If the OP is referring to my  People renting out their signatures, avatars and p. text according to the Chipmixer campaign there are no rules against wearing different paid avatar.
If DarkStar_ have a different views from the ones stated in the Campaign thread on this case, i would like to hear them.

BTW the above-mentioned thread solve your so called problem of bumping multiple threads of the people renting their sig, avatars and p.texts. Now only one thread will be bumped instead of 10 different, so the first page will look much better.

[suchmoon]

People renting out their signatures, avatars and p. text

I'm confused now. Where did the OP get

At least 10 people from [Chipmixer] campaign

There is only one Chipmixer participant in that list (yourself) and even if you count LoyceV's time-travel thread that gets bumped once a week or so, it's still a far cry from "at least 10".

Edit - found one more that's not in your list: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5231109.0

As far as I can see there are no other Chipmixers in the first 3 pages of Services board so it doesn't look like an acute problem.

[The Sceptical Chymist]

Personally, I'd have no problem if Chipmixer decided to require avatar space for their campaign--it's not that big a deal to me.  What I'm wondering is why it's seemingly a big deal for OP since he went through the trouble of starting up a thread about it.

Are there actually avatar campaigns that only pay for avatar space?  I'd love to be even more of a whore than I already am and rent out every pixel of advertising space I've got (that's a LOL). 

I am guessing they haven’t done any kind of market analysis to see how much they need to pay to maximize their advertising coin in quite some time.

I don't know if that's true or not, but my guess is they're seeing a return on their advertising dollars since the campaign has gone on for so long.  I doubt they'd still be running the campaign if they weren't seeing results.

[hugeblack]

Why do I think this topic talks about me , especially since the user mentioned the personal text and not just Avatar?
The reason that prompted me to do this is because I noticed the increasing number of people who want to rent their SG/Avatar, so I decided to create a topic for the competition, "My acceptance ratios for a new campaign", and to improve the quality of my participation, especially as I study, work, and posting here.

I am willing to donate money if I am accepted and I also like my Avatar (Represent me.)

It is not the only reason.

Currently, there is no such campaigns. But in past (way beffore era of bounties), there was plenty of such campaigns. There is old overview of such campaigns - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1087042.0
In past, in some campaigns were giving extra bonus for participants who wear avatar. Or some gave option to wear avatar only.
I was in several avatar campaigns. In one campaign I had to get paid both in BTC and new coin, but I the end I got BTC only.

I think he's referring to other people who don't have a renting topic   Some people like Lauda, TMAN or marlboroza (they are advertising for blockchain.com.do)
But I don't understand why he felt so bad about this problem, that guys do not violate any rules   We are free to do everything as long as we do not violate the rules. Why is it a big trouble with OP?  Why did he open a topic in the Reputation section?

For avatars, we can't put a link there, there is no link to the website in one click, that's why the Avatar campaign no longer exists, it doesn't have much effect. I think the same thing happens with Chipmixer, they might argue that avartar doesn't have much advertising effect.

Assuming of course you don't exclude those of us who don't make the >100 merits (in the last however long) threshold being proposed over on that other thread.


There is an interesting side discussion starting to evolve concerning mobile alts who are advertising their available spaces for rent as well as the main alt of any given user (myself included).  Not sure it warrants its own discussion thread, but it is being talked about.

Well, I'd certainly have a problem with it. For reasons that are the subject of numerous conspiracy theories, all members of my avatar campaign are also members of Chipmixer's signature campaign. Maybe OP is secretly against my slow takeover of the forum.

I'd love to be even more of a whore than I already am and rent out every pixel of advertising space I've got (that's a LOL). 

I was wondering when you'd say that. Slots are tight at the moment, but I think I can squeeze in one more. PM sent.

[DarkStar_]

Meh. This is by no means an official 100% confirmation, but if we ever do end up adding an avatar, it would be optional as an additional bonus (or a small base rate decrease that's fully restored if you wear the avatar). I like to give people choice, and if it's that much of an issue, there's probably better solutions. (could write/use a userscript to ignore threads for example).

Full disclosure: my avatar is currently sold at a 0.00025BTC/post rate

Well about that. Do I need to cycle merit with you guys FIRST, or do I wear the avatar first to begin with the cycling?

Might be worth keeping the thread open just a little bit longer to allow those in the campaign who oppose your suggestion to put their case forward.  Might be interesting to hear why they need even more money.
