At least people should be treated fairly for their time, knowledge and energy. Bounty distributors should also know that it takes resources(mobile, data subscription, electricity) to perform those tasks. There should be a fairer reward distribution and not meagre tokens that is not even worth a dollar.
What do y'all think about this?
Actually it is. But we cant required the project to payment they arent sure about. So better option here is to avoid those projects that sounds suspicious. Its really rare to find projects nowadays that keeping their promises. Ive also experience a lot before and now I quit it since its not worth anymore. Focus on being a reliable member here and maybe you could land a good signature if you rank up later on.
The forum can do something if they see it necessary, so the question of we can't do anything is incorrect, there are certain ways to approach this that can benefit both the projects and the forum participants, which from my own point of view can boost the quality of advertisement the project will get in return.
Since there are no such laid down rules (especially payment aspect) governing launching a campaign here in the forum, it is entirely up to the project host to decide what type of payment method will be provided during the campaign, they are not obliged to provide any specific payment method. Any participants who decide to join either way have no reason to complain afterward.
In most cases, you will find literally bots are a good percentage of the workforce of most of the native token paying alts campaigns (social media especially), it is basically you get what you give kind of situation, if you are paying peanut, you get a crappy job.
