I like when a campaign cheater is exposed but I feel like some go to the extreme to expose some users and try to gain a fast reputation normally pulling the trigger a little too fast in some cases and coming close to ruining some members reputation.
This is exactly what DireWolfM14 and his "friends" are doing, accusing everyone of scam, including accusing me of non-existent scam (it turns out that a token exchange with a detailed description is considered a scam) 
Topic: Crypt0S0ul is spamming out the reputation sub... - page 3. (Read 704 times)
What you're hinting? Do you want to be rewarded too for discovering a second Chahan account (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.60791269), or for hunting down mythical non-existent scams?
So, I'm asking you a question, what value do you bring to the forum with these searches?
There is a great difference between informing the community about scam and scammers, and continually trying to link alts, without proof, and even when the said alts haven't broken any forum rules. With exposing scammers you are saving forum members their money, and warning them to be careful so they will not lose money, as for linking alts, it may not be a bad thing if you have strong evidence that they are cheating, but to continually link alts without evidence, and without them being responsible for breaking any rule, may be ruining member's reputation when they haven't done wrong, and the 'alt hunter' is not being helpful that way at all. Though going by DireWolfM's post history, it goes without saying that he is not a 'scam hunter'.So, I'm asking you a question, what value do you bring to the forum with these searches?
Why not try and defend yourself if what is said about your account is not correct. In the other thread, you didn't even bother to say anything.
If the evidence is strong enough, then will the accused person even have to defend themselves before action against them is taken? But if the reports have so much doubts, and the evidence is weak and still needing the accused to defend themselves, then should the report ever have happened. I feel people can decide whether they want to talk about someone's accusations against them, or if they want to ignore it and do other better things with their time in the forum. 
Crypt0S0ul is a product of our own mistakes as a community. Many established members have taken to rewarding "Alt Hunters" simply for connecting alts with the most circumstantial of evidence. Regardless of whether the alts are breaking rules or not, some members shower the Alt-Hunters with merits and attention just for linking accounts to each other.
Crypt0S0ul is just the latest (probably an alt account in it's own right,) to take advantage of the situation in an attempt to rank up. Next thing you know, some DT1 member will add Crypt0S0ul to his trust list, making him DT2. It wouldn't be the first time.
So, I'll ask a question to those established members who reward this kind of behavior; what value do these Alt Hunters actually add to the forum?

Scam busting. It seems to be a profession since the merit system started. Very easy way to climb on the DT network.
Tutorial. I have not seen so many tutors in the forum before 2018. I used to be in Beginners & Help section but these days I occasionally visit there.
Then there are translators of course. A great invention was copying local websites and translate them to English or copying English websites and then translate them to local language. People did that and they have done well before it was noticed by others.
Anyway, one thing forum users realized that they have to do something to rank up.

Please stop. You don't care about the forum but yourself.So, I'm asking you a question, what value do you bring to the forum with these searches?
It's okay the forum rule don't stop them doing. Of course they need more views to get some more merit.
And, spamming on my trust page.
I do not know how non-alt accounts enrolling a same campaign can be unethical.

If you feel a user is spamming, you could also report their posts and the mods decided whether to delete or not

Yahoo suggested not to have a new topic for every group they suspect but seems they never listen and just started another topic today.
And, spamming on my trust page.

Trust is not moderated and its neutral so it's not really a big deal. I am not a fan of the guy making multiple threads myself, but it is his right. Try to pm him and work it out. Making threads on each other isn't gonna solve anything. You also don't need a separate thread for each group you are finding as alts. Make a thread like Timelords or report in his thread. No need to make 1000 different threads.

I would also recommend him to keep everything in one thread but you can't exactly call them spam. It’s okay to create different thread for different cases.
Regarding the feedback on your profile, if they aren’t true, you can argue on thread with facts and proofs(did you, I haven’t checked yet). It’s a tag based on his finding and it's neutral. I don't think you should also create a thread for this instead of having the issue solved in PM.
