Sad, sad to see. Some even attempted to get away with cutting rates during an ongoing term (Coinut). Pathetic behavior. That's just a direct fraud. When the price goes up, your Bitcoins go up as well, so you can pay people what you said you would paid. No excuses.
Also notice that when the price was lower, they took a ton of days before (sightly) raising the rates. Hell, I saw raises of like 0.0012 to 0.0014 when the price was crashing from 400 to 200, now Coinut and others have gone from 0.0015 to 0.0008.
Don't let these fuckers fuck around with your time and money. Fight for your rights, posters.
It's actually not fraud, literally, but I share your frustration. When you join a campaign you don't sign a contract. They aren't legally obligated to pay you anything or to keep the same rate. The only consequence they have to not following through on the deal is negative trust on this Forum and earning a bad reputation.
I don't remember them EVER raising rates - do you? I've only watched them drop rates since the price was $600 18 months ago.
So we should fight for our rights - what do you propose we do? Go on strike or something? If we did that the original members of this forum would be so happy, haha. It might have a positive result on rates, or it would open the door for people that want to join the campaign.
