Nowadays many people think this forum is a source of income, I don't know why they think like this. This is forum to discuss about bitcoin, not for work! If you want to get money, focus on 1 skills what you good or like... And apply on freelance site. Actually you can earn more money by that's job.
Bounty campaign is not worth it, only wasting your time with worthless coins, avoid it.
Keep in mind, signature campaign is only a bonus from your dedication to forum... similar like people give merit (bonus) on a high quality post.
I don't think there's something necessarily wrong with gaining some income from Bitcointalk. I mean, both of us are in signature campaigns, aren't we?
The problem just arises when people come here
solely for the money, even when they don't know crap about the Bitcoin, which is the main niche of the forum they're trying to earn in. Those kinds of people end up just spamming to gain post count and activity, effectively decreasing the quality of conversations here in Bitcointalk. Thank God for the merit system, though.
The merit and trust system is a big help for this forum to get rid of spammers and scammers, now everyone here is compelled to follow guidelines and stop spamming this forum with useless posts, because of you are going to participate in any bounty campaign your trust and merit is your qualification that you are not a spammer nor a scammer and if you have merits and trust you are not only respected but you are qualified in all bounty campaigns.
