This is why many people think bitcointalk forum as a source of income which is not at all. This forum is indeed a place where many company or platform that pays anyone who have the skills they are looking for. If you have a skills that is useful then you can use it to earn bitcoin rather than joininh bounty campaign.

The reaction of theymos towards stopping signature campaign has said it all, the forum isn't against any of the means of earning some pocket change that has been officially approved by the forum. What they're against is abusing it by causing a mess in the forum. Community members are getting the wrong perspective and f what the forum is all about. Nobody is against you using your skills to earn (it's welcomed here) that's what you have service, marketplace boards to go about all that.

Joining the forum with the sole purpose of promoting yourself, your brand etc like through offering your service isn't a bad idea but when you join just to spam the forum for peanut, there by making the environment not conducive for other to participate in, then it becomes an issue.

There's so much to benefit from the forum that if take your minds offer earning from signature campaign for a moment you realize. Most folks in campaigns today didn't make that their number one priority, it just came as an additional benefits to other times they're benefiting from the forum like been enlightening on some new development in the crypto space.
