Only because someone manage a bounty campaign can get tons of merit points? Is it that valuable for this forum?
Managing a bounty campaign isn't an easy task as you believe. The managers got to work day and night to pick the best posters for their campaign from tons of applicants. They do bring value by helping promote a new project which in turn also brings growth to the activity/engagement in the forum and also the users are forced to make quality posts to be accepted. It helps the forum in many ways.
it can make that user more trustworthy?
Since, managers are the ones holding the funds(most of the times) for the campaigns they are running (for payouts), this process does require a lot of trust. And if they dont hold the funds themselves, they put their own reputation at risk if the owners decide to change their minds later.
Well, Im done with talking to a troll now
