I do strongly believe that something needs to be built into the system that confirms payments and gives accurate contest stats of such. Perhaps within a CH profile page, instead of having a "contest awarded" stat, there should be "contest held", "contest declared won", and "prizes awarded" stats, or something revealing that when a contest is declared as won, rather or not it is "finalized".
Thanks Lachlan, I did report the last incident - the CH was said to be banned. That is good, and I do appreciate all you guys efforts. However, on the CH's profile page beside "prizes awarded" it still shows that he awarded a prize for the contest, when in fact he declared me winner but never actually gave the prize; therefore, it is a false documentation shown. We need all stats to be accurate.
I was one of the ones surveyed while still under Sitepoint where I had not yet experienced a non payment for my winning a contest; however, I have since not been payed for my two winning designs here at 99designs.
Agreed - should work both ways for all fairrness - CH and designers alike.
