Cheating or Not?

[awakpane]

In my opinion, it is natural for managers to change project rules for campaign participants, because they have already passed the stages of project management given by the project owners. moreover, campaign rules can be changed at any time by the manager who manages them as long as the campaign is successful and participants get paid.

not because some projects apply the rule and may change it abruptly depending on the agreement from the beginning, whether the hunters are willing to follow it or not. You can see the rules proposed by each project before joining.

[mdzahed134]

It depends on the rules that were made from the beginning. Usually projects write "Bounty manager or admin has the right to do anything"
So we cannot blame them if they change the rules in the middle or the end.

But a lot of people will ignore KYC and they will choose only KYC less projects. So all of the projects teams should make clear announcement about KYC, if any project say that no kyc in started and after end they will ask KYC, this what kind of changing i wouldn’t agree that. Yeah teams have right to change another thing likes rewards,listing exchange.

Bounties have rules that can be changed at any time, to avoid this you need to find trusted bounty managers that don't like changing rules after bounty ends, for this all my credits go to bubbalex, he never disappoint me for once

that's why sometimes some rules of bounty write "this rule can change at any time". so it's natural if that changes. besides, sometimes KYC is carried out because of regulatory interests. if not like that, then a project is very difficult to develop, especially cryptocurrency that is considered anonymous.

Since it true many bounty doing cheating almost some years explain like after 2017 year later. I see more bounty hunter do not agree submit ID document for passing kyc then team will take this opportunity after finished of their bounty. Personally we can't do anything if they're take cheating.

This is also common on bitcoin talk forum. However you must understand that most of these projects may change their decisions based on pressure from the financial bodies where they are situated. It's not solely their own decision to make. So let's try not to accuse them of cheating. Also remember you did not sign any physical agreement that limits you from undergoing kyc check

[TheICE007]

Well,personally I don't think it is right if it has been said there will be no kyc and at the end it is changed, but again, we should remember the rules that says while the bounty is on, the team or manager has the right to change rule,so we need to get use to that and then probably get ready for such occurances.

[ned.ryerson]

A good project is one that doesn't change much in promises including a bounty campaign, which proves that they are serious and the project is often quite successful. I also like things that haven't changed when people agreed to the terms at the begining,  but I think we shouldn't call them a cheating team because KYC isn't a big hassle.

I agree. 100 percent of projects that cheat bounty hunters turned out to be a scam. therefore, the project must be honest with those people who advertise the project from the very beginning

[thisnewcoin]

This is not a new case and this thing happened in every crypto forum! Once I blamed them for such cheating, but right now, it’s not cheating rather a part of the bounty rules. They have rights to add or remove any rule, so, you have to go through it. I am in crypto for many years, did lots of KYC already and never faced a single problem in my identity! So, you shouldn’t be worry, just do it if you feel safe, otherwise, leave the project! We have nothing do in such case!

Cheating or NOT Cheating?

Coming from altcoinstalk forum I've experience few projects going against their own rules like saying on promotion page that no KYC will be required and after promotion ends they tell promoters to go and open account on an exchange and pass KYC, what can this be called? Cheating? Any consequences for such projects on this forum? Thank you.

For me this process is cheating, this situation I faced several times in cryptocurrency. Even though some users can manage KYC process. If announcement is faded that KYC process is mandatory  after 1 year that will be totally cheating. Some projects has dead situation that have to submit KYC from exchange or others site after project successful

[DrawAthens031]

Its not talking about cheating , it depends on the rules that were made from the beginning.Bounty manager or admin has the right to do anything during that that period . They can change rules anytime they wanted to . Be cautious when you want participate on  a bounty then try to read bounty rules properly .

[totoy4741]

I think it is the exchanges that needs the KYC not the bounty campaign itself. Every exchanges out right now in the market need everyone to go through KYC in order to prevent fraudulent account and malicious activities with certain account. It is not that they are not complying with their rules but it is mandatory to have KYC in most of all exchanges.

[TanakabZX]

Bounty rules are adjustable but not KYC, it's cheating to me, it depends on bounty managers though, most I've come across don't go back on their words, once they ask for KYC they don't go back on their words, If any bounty manager do such I won't follow such BM again

[NicosUK]

Its still an unregulated space. You have to just rely on your wits and depend on the project owner to be honourable to their words. But sometimes KYC is out of their hands and they are probably forced due to regulations which they were not really aware of initially, was required after. So maybe its not the fault of the project. They just didn't realise the number of regulations required.

[Botnake]

In my opinion kyc is the best for exchanger but never good thing passing kyc for bounty hunter. Actually this is rules from team so we can't to do anything. Usually it's will be cheating if they will wanted kyc without first rules.

That's right, every campaign has their own set of rules, it will only be cheating if it is not part of the rules but later added when everything on your end was already done. Even in exchanges, they don't require everyone to comply with the KYC, it's only depending on the amount you trade or transact and if you fall to that level, that's the time you'll comply, but if not, you can transact anonymously.

For bounty hunter, like I said, if its part of the rule then you have to comply and just don't participate if you feel you don't like to submit your KYC information, than complaining because you think bounty should not require KYC.

There's a disclaimer in almost all Bounties which states that the team are liable to edit, alter or change anh terms of the Bounty campaign.
While you were also joining and filling the Bounty forms, you also chose to agree to the afro mentioned terms and conditions.

Hence it is not cheating but can be unfair

Yes we often see in the first page of the bounties their condition to change rules anytime and you as a participant agree and understand it thats why you join their bounty. Its really unfair but thats one of the risk that we need to face when joining in bounties to be able to get a rewards. As long as the project is really legit then I will comply except for kyc.

[$anounimus$]

Every project has rules that apply and must be followed by participants, related to the changes in regulations that are in progress or completion, their management team may have sat down together regarding changes and policies. All decisions in their hands.

[Esterklu]

For me it is clear cheating, because first - in such way they will cut the number of rewards, second - they will collect your data. If they are acting in such way, they easily can continue their cheating. Or for example - sell their database. Anyway i am trying to stay away from such bad players.

[Clark05]

You just need to follow their rules because that is what their implemented if they rules they have rights to change anytime there is no cheating. There is no need to worry about KYC if the exchange site or the website that you are going to pass your details if the site is legit .
