I think if it become rule that all bounties will be paid in bitcoins only (or any established list of Altcoins.)
I do like this suggestion. "Tokens" have no value to me. Meanwhile, they abuse
Bitcointalk to hype the centrally controlled cryptocurrency Ethereum. Tokens are created for free out of thin air, while having to pay actual Bitcoins means the campaign needs to have actual real funding. I'm not much for taking away freedom, but I can imagine setting a minimum payment amount would force campaigns to abandon spammers. With payments in made up tokens, there's no real cost for the campaign. Who's going to pay a spammer a dollar per post?
Sylon is complete trash as far as campaign managers go because he does nothing at all about the quality of his participants.

As long as he and every other campaign manager can get away with doing absolutely nothing then like ICOs they will just sit back, do the bare minimum amount of work needed and collect the paycheck month after month.
What's stopping you from enforcing your
Signature Campaign Guidelines on him?
In just 4 days, 560 Newbies have posted "#Proof of Authentication", which seems to be Sylon's signature code. I don't want to fill another thread with long lists, so
here it is (copy into a new post and click Preview for a list with links to the profiles). I've checked a few, and it's spam only. Those 560 accounts are only the Newbies, I can't easily check higher ranks.
(while preparing this post, the total went up to 567 already)I know theymos doesn't want to ban all signature campaigns, but why not start with banning the campaign managers that give financial incentives to spam?
I would like to have some visibility of how "report to moderator" works in the backend, e.g. which reported posts get deleted, which don't and why, etc.
I'd also like to see what it looks like for moderators. I'm curious, so a screenshot would be much appreciated.
I'm hoping I can report more efficiently if I know what exactly a moderator has to do to handle reports.
