Bots and spam - caused by account farmers that sell the accounts to other users for bounty and signature campaigns or use the farmed accounts themselves for bounty or signature campaigns.
Yeah or use merit for promotion new accounts. Is that right?
I think if you read the
link I posted much
earlier - it was all discussed there. Using merit to reward spam reporters is no longer done by the Russian moderators because account farmers were abusing that method of awarding merit.
It was not the moderators or merit source that were abusing it - it were the account farmers that were manipulating the system.
It is generally account farmers and bounty chasers that complain about the merit system. They are the only ones disadvantaged by it.
The merit system was designed to disadvantage them - the complaints prove the merit system works as intended.
Perhaps you shouldn't post anything. Because if you don't create a conversation then you won't get any replies.
I gave a vivid example of how merites are pumped. But I did not receive a sensible answer. But I received accusations that I am a seller.
Or in the world of white people, the seller has no right to speak?
I gave a comprehensive explanation here:
I didn't repeat the whole thread where it was discussed - but I did post a link to it so you could read what was already discussed at length without having to repeat the whole entire conversation again.
My Russian is not good but I do read a lot in the Russian topic section. But I live in an English speaking country. I can assure you that there is a noticable difference in the English grammar used by esmanthra and by xandry. They are definitely not the same person.
Xandry is a merit source and will have given merit to mainly Russian speaking topics which would link him to almost every Russian account.
With a merit source there are always going to be people that they merit more because they like their work.
