This thread is a very helpful tool for members like me who are yet to get into any signature campaigns, because it's enlightenments about factors to consider before applying for a campaign that'll be suitable for the member is very important. Before now I didn't know that we have questionable campaigns in the forum, I'd always had the impression that every signature campaigns here are reputable and have integrity. Thanks to this thread, I know better now and won't fall victim when i want to join one. It serves as a guide for members to know the boards where they're most active before choosing a campaign to join.
Like you pointed out in number 2, it's important to join a campaign that you agree with their business ideology, not just for their payout. Or at least try and learn more about them before joining, so there'll be a synergy between you and their kind of business. Personally I'm not into gambling, but sometimes going into the gambling boards and reading comments have made me to understand about it, now I can join in interesting discussions there. So I can now safely apply in a campaign that requires post counts in gambling, not because of their payouts but because I'm now comfortable posting in that section.
