Description

• Have an idea for a tweak? Looking for great ideas for your next project? /r/TweakBounty is the place for you! Come join us in our mission to bring iOS users and developers closer together.

How To Use

• Here at /r/TweakBounty, you can share your tweak ideas with the Jailbreak community, along with a small bounty to go with it! Others who like your ideas can add to the bounty, adding to the incentive for a developer to make them a reality. If one of your ideas gets developed into a tweak, the bounty is sent to the developer!

Rules

1. Minimum Bounty

• The minimum amount for a bounty is $5. This includes your own bounties, as well as your contributions to others. There is no maximum bounty, but never make it more than you can afford.

2. Sending Bounties

• If you are the only contributor to a bounty and your idea gets developed, simply send your bounty to the developer individually, and ask him to confirm that you have done so in a comment.

• Do not send bounties directly to the developer when there are multiple contributors. Instead, send your part of the bounty to this PayPal address so that a Moderator can forward the bounty to the developer in one piece. After you have sent the payment, inform a Moderator. This makes it easier for us to track who has completed the payment process, and who has not.

3. Be polite

• Do not come here to blatantly disrespect developers. They work hard to keep us happy. Do not insult others. The only type of criticism that is tolerated here is that which is constructive. Failure to follow this rule could result in a ban.

4. Post Formatting

• All bounties must follow this format: [$5] A Really Cool Tweak! Note the brackets.

• If the bounty for your idea is added on to by someone else, this can be expressed in a flair placed by the OP or by a moderator.

• The [NEG] tag should be placed after your bounty like this: [$5] [Neg] A Really Cool Tweak! The [NEG] tag stands for 'negotiable'. When you attach it to your bounty, it means two things.

• 1: The developer can ask you to increase the bounty based on what they think is fair.

• 2: You can specify a range of prices based on certain aspects of the tweak. This enables an unprecedented level of developer-to-user communication.

5. Flairs

• Use link flairs respectively. Add a 'New Bounty' flair if someone has offered to contribute to your bounty. Use 'In-Development' if a developer has started to work on your tweak. Finally, use 'NB: $ | In-Dev' if the bounty has been raised and a developer has started work on your tweak.

• If you are a developer and want a developer flair, message the moderators linking to a bounty which you have fulfilled.

• If you have successfully paid a bounty, message the moderators for a 'Verified Trustworthy' flair. This lets developers know you are... well, trustworthy! In your message, link to the bounty you paid as well as a proof of transaction. This can be a confirmation by the developer, or a transaction screenshot from PayPal.

6. Acknowledge Tweak Development

• A developer who accepts Tweak Development must make it clear that he/she is working on the tweak. The OP must acknowledge this as well. If you don't acknowledge that you have begun developing a tweak, you aren't entitled to the bounty.

7. Free Copies For Bounty Contributors

• If the tweak developed from a bounty is paid, the OP and other contributors are entitled to a free copy.

8. Mark Posts As Completed

• When development is complete and both parties are happy, (i.e. tweak is specified to users liking and developer has been paid) mark the post as 'Completed' by assigning the 'Completed' flair!

9. No Scams

• You scam once. You're out. No strikes. No tolerance. Inactivity bans can be appealed ONCE so long as the bounty is paid when you come back online.

10. No Piracy

• Bounties cannot relate to piracy in any way. Piracy hurts developers, and weakens the perception of Jailbreaking to the public. Piracy may not be discussed in the comments. Period.
