The merit system is great, and it seems to be working in its basic form.

Enhance it by banning anyone selling merits, and fining anyone abusing the merit system -50 merits, and that includes those buying merit.

Jet Cash is right.

I do believe account farmers on my local board are now "dying". They are having a hard time to increase their alts rank because spamming will not increase their rank anymore. But of course, it won't affect them too much if their alts were already high-ranked.

Spamming is highly reduced, but still not entirely gone. That happens because those spammers rank is already high (full member up), so they don't think about merit. They just wanted to post to get their sign rewards. Even a legendary (not all of them, of course) from my local board is still posting a low-quality post until now.

So, let's report them, to make sure they got banned and got tagged if they are abusing the merit system.
Bounty managers should take part in this too. Don't accept someone who got tagged and abused the merit system in their sig campaign.

I think it is best to delete "merit system".
Who likes Merit?Cheesy


I hate it so much.

I also hate shitposters spamming sig campaigns with 100 alts. So what's the compromise if it's deleted? How about we just make the merit requirements 1/2 of what they are currently? I said this on day 1 it's a good solution, and I'll stick with it. That's not too harsh, and it still makes merit incredibly hard to achieve for rank-up. A nice compromise in my mind. What else did you have in mind?

Code:
merits are like respect, if you can’t show respect, you won’t get any

Question 1: ban their accounts, stop merits/smerits system
Question 2: accounts be banned, their addresses to blacklist, red trust
