Why would merit a big deal to someone? Is it because for the sole purpose of bounty hunting? Well if thats the case, I dont see merit buying can help someone, instead they are putting themselves in a big trouble once caught, and that "sole purpose" will be gone forever. Sometimes, people are so desperate to something and tend to make stupid things which they think was the answer to the difficulties they're experiencing, when the reality is the other way around.

IMO, I'd rather look for forum violators and make a posts about it in meta section with complete presentation of evidence. In that way, I am helping the forum at the same time earning merit points, rather than spending bucks to prohibited stuff that puts your reputation at risks.

I saw that many users are selling their merits and hacked btctalk accounts, shouldn't these people be banned? What are the moderators here for? Why are threads like those even possible? In order to stop the selling of accounts I think mods should ban the ones selling as soon as possible. Most of the account sellers are going to try to scam you anyways, so they can make easy money off naive people very easily if they are allowed to do it here literally on the btctalk forum.
I don't think it is actually allowed to sell or trade merits its because if the moderators caught this kind of a transaction they will put red trust both accounts or be banned in this forum and the reputation of the accounts will be ruined.

selling merit is a violation because the rules about it are clear. This is a great forum where many members join here, the latest merit rules for me are very effective in reducing spaming and junk accounts, but if only strict rules without solutions get realistic merit I think more sales will occur
Bitcointalk accounts that are hacked and then sold are serious violations and if you find evidence I am sure this will be processed according to the rules of the forum.

Merit is now quite hard to earn, so someone who cant earn it choose buying account have at least 1 merit to conduct bounty campaign in this forum.

And that's where you guys comes into the picture. All bounty whores are finding it hard to get a least a merit to continue their journey here, but alas, merit buying/selling is the obvious way to go. But one way or another you will be caught by those members helping to clean up this forum and reported.

That is why such acts of selling or buying merits are being considered by many members, not to mention buying an account as earning merits is very hard specially with many topics that are being congested in the forum, however what I think new members needs to know is to how they can create topics with value as that is one of the things that admins and mod would want us to do. This is not just to make the site a better quality forum but also let the bounty hunters know that this is a real job that needs effort and time.

Wait, seems you realized that most of the account sellers are scammers (if not all of them). A person, which decides to buy account deserves to get scammed, why? Because when you come here, read forum rules at first (yeah it gives possibility to sell acount afaik but there are other details too), then when you see low rank member with zero or minus trust, avoid at least. Everyone has brain, this brain isn't for just being alive, you have to think in this world.

Actually it is not that hard to earn merit, only those who are giving up before trying says like that IMO. Buying account is not prohibitted by forum rules but we users are not recommended to do it especially if the main purpose is for earning money through bounties.

In order to stop the selling of accounts I think mods should ban the ones selling as soon as possible. Most of the account sellers are going to try to scam you anyways, so they can make easy money off naive people very easily if they are allowed to do it here literally on the btctalk forum.

Selling and buying transactions are not only happening in this forum, there are many sellers out there such as in Telegram, facebook or other social medias. It will be very hard to cover it, we are lucky enough to have some DT Members who are so active in tagging those sellers and buyers. I think it is enough if the main purpose if to avoid scam.

AFAIK, they're not ban-able but they can be painted with red trust. You can just go to Meta to see it for yourself. The only possible way to ban account is "plagiarising".
You can get banned for things other than plagiarism.  Constant spam, consecuposting, and ban evasion will all earn you bans.  You won't get banned for account sales, but you'll probably get red-tagged by a DT member.  As far as merit sales, you'll definitely get tagged if caught, but I don't think I've seen anyone banned for that--and I can't even remember if there's a hard rule about it.

People selling accounts are ballsy here, but they have to sneakier about the merit sales.  I guess deals could be done all through PMs and such, but I haven't seen any merit sales threads around here.  I think all that happens on telegram.

The good thing is that bitcointalk has a lot of people with very sharp eyes looking at merit transactions, so a lot fewer people get away with that crap than you'd think.

Selling merit isn't allowed in this forum, if you found that case you can write a thread in this section Reputation and you must include proof so as everyone in this forum believes in you and might DT member will give red trust if the case really happened.
What are the moderators here for?
You better known this forum as a whole before making a conclusion. This forum works well and even becomes the biggest cryptocurrency forum because there was interference from the moderator.

And thats why this forum do have this kind of feature  Grin

Report to Moderator

Moderators are just humans and they are not robots that would precisely able to see all those post regarding to these stuffs which means there would really instances that
there are post wont really be given some action because its being missed thats why as a user of this forum it would really be a great help on just reporting these illegal doings.

Selling merits and Bitcointalk account is punishable act and illegal action. Who buy and sell Bitcointalk account and merit both will get negative trust from moderators.

Funny though. I haven't earn a single merit but I don't like to trade or buy one. I think it will eventually come one day. And for those who are trying to cheat the system. I do hope that mods will just ban you here. I started as a lurker and I try to learn how all this crypto works before joining campaigns but those bounty hunters who got demoted really wanted to get back and continue their "dreams" here, so to speak.

This section should be in meta. Hopefully they'll take action in of those merit's seller but it is hard to find who they're if you don't have a solid evidence. Also the admins of this forum are busy in an important matters, I think they will not priority in it. Anyway if you find one you can report it directly or make a new topic about it in the accusation board.

Merits aren't moderated so they're not banned by mods. But if you find them then you can open a thread here:Reputation. They could be red tag by DT members if its obvious that they're trading or selling merits.


That is not new on this league, if they want to sell their merit...it's better if they will leave any mark or evidence. I'm not supporting those punk, so I report some accounts here for that particular reason. The link above about reputation is very effective if you want to report them. Merit is not for sale, it's a price and a symbol of respect to one brilliant user.

I think all cheating will not last long if you get a gift and so on. examples of giving merits for free, not correctly judging what is meant by the meaning and meaning of a post that will ultimately have a large loss, if one day someone knows and reports the account, the person concerned.

If you see someone who is selling Merit or abusing the system, you have 2 options to report them:
1. Directly via Report to Moderator link
2. Make a thread on Reputation Board

In regards to account sales, they are not getting banned because it is allowed so they are not breaking any rules, but they will be getting a red trust from some DT member
18. Having multiple accounts and account sales are allowed, but account sales are discouraged.
Q: I saw a guy selling Bitcointalk accounts. Why is that allowed?
A: Since we can't effectively prevent these sales (proxies, TOR, sales in other forums), we don't because otherwise we would be giving the users a false sense of security.

If you have forum related query you must write about that meta section. If you proof for someone scamming the concern project or forum by over crossing the rules you hace right to report with the moderator.
So use it to complain to scammers whoever trapped in your eyes. Hope we see your help to vanish scammers.
