Some time ago I created the following thread in this very section.
Inflation and its possible impact on signature campaign payments.Interestingly, with the CM case I see the opposite has happened. We have the top forum posters who have mostly moved on to work for lower paying campaigns and for the rest it has become more difficult to get into or stay in the higher paying campaigns, which are the ones with a maximum payout of $100 per week plus possible bonus.
I wanted to comment on this issue, asking those who have been on the forum longer if something similar has happened in the past.
Also if you think that in the future some campaign will try to collect the majority of ex-CMs in a higher paying campaign.
And one last question. The CM campaign paid for a maximum of 50 posts per week, while the rest (except Stake.com) pay for a maximum of 25. Do you think this will lead some people to try to build up an alt account so that in the future they can get paid for two campaigns for a total of 50 posts per week?
There are a decent number of posters on this forum who have custom deals. Companies want the people in the community that are bigger names. So they will pay a premium for those posters.
If you notice the services section there are a couple ex CM participants advertising their space is now for rent. Some of those guys will get custom deals. No company will likely try to get all of the ex CM participants as that could get expensive, but having a few might help their businesses visibility and reach on the forum.
