Now from a different angle aside from an airdrop project been regarded to as scammers when they request people to pay some TON and didn't airdropped. What about a scenario where a project after requesting for such payment from participants actually airdropped but to just about 15% of their participants out of a 100% that made that TON payment task. Can that still be regarded as some form of scam? since the notion has been that most of these airdrops that request some fee to be paid don't usually fulfill their promise.
If they cannot deliver what they promised and they do selective payment to those who participate,, then its a scam, A project that has a good name should have no complaint, and they should address all issues.
Airdrop has a new definition, in the past, you simply sent your address and they would send you their token, Now you have to work for it and based on how you deliver or finish the task, that's how they compute your allocation: simply doing a bounty campaign on the project and not participating in Airdrop.
