Nice digging out, but I see here is the talk about several cases.
As I already admitted this is one of my accounts which is shutted for more than a year.

tatjanayermakovaHere we can see that all posts made in one campaign. This one was made month after mine. I have two variants of explanation. Or the guy simply copied-pasted my post and didnt correct the skype address, or he done that for purpose to not show his own info.

There is some Slight Change in Usersame of skype.
My Skype user is = jay82911.
I see this guy was active a month ago. I will send him PM and try to connect him to the conversation to see what he may say. As you may notice remaining accounts (jay82911, Remy_5, OOPSSS and others) participated in social media campaigns. And if you look at my campaign history you will see I've never participated in any of them. So, obviously here is the point of someone's mistake.

http://archive.is/0elGhhttp://archive.is/jBH1thttp://archive.is/1zJLkSometimes, people tend to merit for a joke, because it makes them feel funny, help them release stresses from trading, or something like that.
Merit abusements or un-abusements on perspectives of each person, despite of the fact that sending 50 or 100 merits to one-line, joking post most likely merit abusements or at least merit inappropriate usages.
I agree with you that theymos wrote that he don't care about that, because with airdropped merits, people can not abuse for too long, and he tend to leave it naturally happen. Of course, for some extremely abused cases like sending 90 or 100 merits to some accounts to boost it to Full Members are very bad abusements.
And, if they abuse like this, they can not go much further. They can go to Senior Members with 240 or 250 merit points abused but they won't be able to move to Hero or Legendary for sure.
There are no "real" rules for giving merit ( I see subsequently it was found to likely be his alt so that is likely abuse). I mean it is not supposed to be given out on political grounds, but of course that is observably not the case. Free choice certainly applies.
There are several instances where large amounts of merit are given out from merit sources for a low value one liner.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.50280347I have seen people just more or less ask for some merit and a merit source has just given it to them for fun.
I am happy to see that at least someone here can say the reality of giving merits. It's up to person how much and whom to give it.
I'm not a spammer or cheater.
I extremely doubt it!
Do you have any proves? You may dig my post history for many years, but you will not find that I pumped some thread with big number of empty posts or alike. Also I didn't sell anything on the forum and just stole coins from possible buyer. I didnt hurt anyone on that way. Your extremely doubts based on nothing.
