We'll it's okay to me, i don't have further evidence tho, i only catch merit abusers/traders ( if they really were), the problem is the action of those who have authority, the only chance to clean the forum is by banning moderation, and since we need deep evidence we cannot stop the problem as of now.
I appreciate those people who continue to hunt merit abusers, and i do believe that there is a person in the forum who continue to feed small amount of merit to their lower rank account and save for the big fish.
The more in number the more in power.

Good catch but even though I do give out negative feedback to people who are abusing merit, I only do so with the most explicit cases of merit abuse.
This... is not one of them.
To say that the red flag is when a user receives lots of merit would be wrong. If these users are tagged for being sent a large amount of merit then that gives scammers a weapon against unrelated users. Since I don't want to set such a strong precedent, I'm a bit more careful with merit tags.

Good work OP! Pretty obvious Merit abuse highlighted there, yes. Alarm bells should sound whenever a post receives 10+ Merit points from one individual account unless it’s for a ridiculously high quality post. People just don’t hand out multiple Merit points for a post unless it’s highly deserving or a Legendary old school post/thread.

Some will probably tag them, but I don't tag accounts for Merit abuse. Update:
Tagged and hope some DT will come forward.

No wonder merit has been bought or begged.

Looking at the receiving date and time is enough to spot the abuse.
Good job OP.
