Ok... I agree with you, our current website is an emergency update from our prior website and is in the process of being enhanced internally.   

None of what you mentioned addresses scam accusations.

The scam accusations stem from the website. The layout with the monopoly men and bank-BTS comparison does look suspicious. The site offers no technical explanation and links to the AGS donation.

The scam accs come from prospective investors that were referred to the site.

I have personally addressed each individual.

It is light on details at the moment...

pls provide more details...

Its not clear for me, super3 got salaries last 2 month from III, so he was paid for this web work. Why he could also claim this bounites on top of his salaries?
Just throwing in my 5 cent ...

Salery Jan 14 = 5.5 BTC + 160 PTS = approx. 7BTC = arround 5600 $ for web development.

Can i ask what was developed for this, if he can claim the bountie also!?
Please, everyone understand, I'm not here to complain, i want to understand this, nothing more ...

Yes, the 5% will be a future experiment.   We are removing it from our marketing asap.

I thought the conclusion (somewhere else) was that +5% will not be an option anymore.
Bitshares depends on a social consensus to peg prices so anything that can cause scam accusition (promisis that sound too good to be true, litle explanation, a lot of claims etc. even if that all is possible) is realy bad and can make Bitshares not work. There has to be some traction / consenus at the beginningof pegging prices... TRUST in invictus is VERY important here.

I think you need to reconsider this slogan:

"Earn 5% or more on Anything"

Based on my compliance experience, this has the potential to get you in some deep s--t. 

Just my opinion.  Take it for what it's worth.

Perhaps... we are considering alternatives...  though that statement was literally based upon hardcoding 5% into the blockchain so was true.

Okay guys this needs to be addressed. The current website http://invictus.io is receiving scam accusations and for good reason.

We need this rectified as it is damaging our image.

Take it down or revamp.

Please define the problem instead of assuming we know.

indeed more infos would be useful..

The image we want is clean, professional and corporate bordering scientific in a way. I will run through quickly as I go offline in 3 days for 8 days. 1 mill tasks in between..

This is crypto. We need to communicate our message through every aspect of our branding. Through past experience (and research data), a company can have a superior product that will be under constraint by its advertising/ media rep.

What Invictus are doing is groundbreaking in every way, far ahead of our competitors. We do so well in in community, coding, economics, funding and fair adoption amongst other things but rather lack in official communication through announcements and communication through the branding scheme.

Everyone has worked their ass off and the community appreciates every moment taken to raise Invictus, even mistakes are valuable as we learn and build our success. I am not attacking any work and will never take that approach.

Invictus must devote more time to this area as we are losing much potential funding. There is a small percentage that will trawl our every forum post, the website represents us in a nutshell and I must stress how critical this is.

Starting with the main page http://invictus.io

It is basic and does not connect with what Invictus is about. The main earth/sun scheme will most likely need removal, link graphics, studio, contact and info layout + presentation is cluttered/ non corp etc

Much applies to the BTSX page but there needs to be a an immediate removal of the images. Monopoly, stamp, foreclosure. The comparison to the current bank vs BTS also needs to go. It could still exist if done in a professional manner and broken down to the decentralised mechanism, not from a radical point of view.

The AGS counter is good but the AGS graphics need customisation and a whole new individual image just as PTS BTS etc have their own true identity.

Clicking on the support BTS takes us t a page with info. Info is great but is difficult to navigate, same issue with header image + yellow and red writing.

Keyhotee also.

The underlying theme does not convey our image.

Take a look at the most professional and uber corporate companies branding, websites and marketing schemes. Thats where we need to be headed to instill trust in Invictus products.

Before I get a paragraph on 'decentralisation' and how we are not like these big corporations, I will tell you that is correct.

You will still however, need to play by human psychology and that will mean aligning the branding with what is synonymous with professional and corporate. Referring to scientific above is in the desire to take it one step further by achieving robotic/ DAC status in our marketing. Truly stepping beyond traditional prof/corp image to offer something that does not require trust, because it is in effect a program that cannot deviate. Our products require no trust to use that is true but in order for a consumer to adopt, there is certainly a level of trust (nobody wants to lose their assets).

Did I communicate the above paragraph effectively?

Foreseeing longterm there is the possibility of becoming the trillion dollar equity market. If that is going to be a reality its now time to lay off the anti-fiat/ government approach. Lets focus on doing our thing. If we do it well, we will take the market regardless.

You need to understand you will have the worlds gaze over this space in every way. Inside and out. Before you hit the stage and get under the spotlight, believe me, you want to have it together.

The http://invictus.io site meets all the bounty requirements, and has been actively used as the official website for the past month. Why has it not been selected as a winner?
I want to close this project out, pay out to those who participated, and transfer ownership of the web property to Invictus.  I just don't like leaving things unfinished.

What aspects of the site are in use that were produced by someone other than Super3?
