Well, I don't know if it's the right place to say this, but I feel I need to talk.
About 10 days ago, he sent me a message on Bitcointalk. It was a contest manager @therise (the rise) asked if he could help manage one of our events. I said yes. We already had someone for that job, but we thought givinghim this task would make things easier. At first, everything was fine.
He asked me to change some things to make it more attractive. I followed his advice.
But a few days later, things didn’t go well (there was a lack of communication). He didn’t manage the event properly. Still, I told him it was okay as long as he was trying his best.
After that, he start saying some rude things and in each time in each time we talk about the contest. He doesn't know how to talk kind. But I couldn't cancel the campaign...it's not that easy as you know!
On the last day, he noticed only one person had joined. So he asked me if he could take part. I said no, he was the manager, and that would be unfair. But he kept insisting because he knew he would win. He pushed so hard that I felt uncomfortable. In the end, I accepted (and it was a mistake on my part).
I told him he had to follow the rules if he wanted to join. He refused to respect the requirements and became rude. He started insulting me and the project. He wanted us to change the rules just to win.
I reminded him that, as the manager, he should respect the rules, WELL not break them. But he kept saying bad things (to make it simple he wanted to join the event without applying the contest code)
Then he started ruining the event. He rewrote the rules in huge text and finally canceled the contest.
I have hired many contest managers in the past, they are all respectful. I don't know what is going on, to be honest. I've never seen anything like this.
Now, we can't even send the refund (to our only player who respected rules) because he locked the topic but I will DM directly. So no problem!
I'm expecting he will say negative things about me or the project because he is simply not kind!
PS/ He is contacting me now to give me back the management fees that we paid him. You can keep them, we want nothing from you!
