If the cost of the account "member" for example $200

it is problematic to make many new Member's accounts
These spammers don't care about Members. The majority of accounts they use are Jr. Members which don't need anything but time and activity to be obtained (at least for now). If they put the process on a stream (and I assume that they do), they register a new bunch of accounts every day and evolve them quietly in boards like Off-topic just to avoid the situation when their previous bunch is banned. Thus they don't incur any losses.
Yes, while it is difficult to fight spam from accounts Jr. Members. The option of introducing Merit for them is already under consideration. But in this topic, I focus just on Member accounts and above.

Pre-ICO зaвepшитcя 31.08.2018can destroy a business - just ban accounts
How do you expect it to be "destroyed" by banning?It's simple. If the cost of the account "member" for example $200, and getting banned and flying out with the signature company, they will not get anything - I wonder what they choose?
In fact I doubt that bans indeed disturb them (especially those who actually are engaged in some sort of "business"): sometimes it seems that they register a new bunch of accounts faster then their previous bunch is being banned.
With the introduction of the Merit system, it is problematic to make many new Member's accounts. Because they use hacked accounts 2011-2014 years. And their number is definitely limited!

I consider that they have to be banned, but our (russian moderators) inquiries on their banning are ignored.
Thank you! I immediately realized that the problem only moderators of the Russian section of the forum to resolve difficult - and therefore have created a topic on the Meta-board
They're bots (at least the majority of them, I suppose). Bots don't think and don't hesitate - they just do what was implimented in their code. "Ice showers" are pertinent when we talk about people.
Create they are clearly people and benefit from a signature company get the same people. Loss of 10-20 accounts will sober anyone
Creating a bunch of bots to participate in the signature company - is a business.
Question - we need such a business on the forum?
If not - can destroy a business - just ban accounts is to make it unprofitable!
Just seems strange to me to create topics for the filling of posts by bots?
Why not if it works? It's much easier to moderate them when they're collected in one place - and users who nevertheless find something useful there (applying them like some kind of news letter for example) don't have to dig the analytics thread (nor the entire board) to find what they want.
that would be a great "ice shower" for the rest of the "news headline posters"...

I wrote about it above
I just restored the post which originally was written before your reply in previous thread.
It was a reference to these words:
The moderators even opened a separate topic under "news headlines", or they do other topics unreadable.

what will happen if tomorrow bounty managers will cease to count the posts placed with "garbage topics"? This spam will return in 10 new topics?
Everything would just return to it's basics. Since this thread is created for those posts by moderator they don't break anything there, but if they'd go outside they'll automatically start to violate the p.1. It's exactly the same situation we dwelled before.

Probably easier just to apply the ban for multiple posting violates p.1? (since their number will continue to grow IMHO)

nice work op
Thank you!
Do report on such posts of p.1.(low-value post) - get bad report! (post - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.43941045)
No wonder since you reported a post from the thread which was specially created for those posts (Xal0lex wanted to remove them from other threads on account of their "garbage" nature - see his original post).
Actually, I wrote about it above.
As a temporary solution to this problem Xal0lex made everything perfect. But what will happen if tomorrow bounty managers will cease to count the posts placed with "garbage topics"?
This spam will return in 10 new topics?

I think there are much more important issues that need addressing/implementing right now than badges in my opinion.
The problem of bots spamming (in particular "news headlines") is included in the list of priorities? We have more and more of them in the Russian branch every day.
They do not violate the rules (place a link to the source of the news), but in fact - it is 100% spam. The moderators even opened a separate topic under "news headlines", or they do other topics unreadable.
They do not violate the rules (place a link to the source of the news)
By placing the link they do not violate the rule about plagiarism (p.33), but not the rules in general. Any spam and low-value post violates the p.1. In fact there's no sense in posting such "news": they don't contain any "fresh" thoughts (nor thoughts at all) and their "authors" just intend to make as many posts as possible.

These spam bots are really tired of everything - 50% of messages in the topic - from bots!
Someone clearly decided to automate the process of posting messages for signature companies on the forum?
Yes they have.
Ok now everything is clear, that is some freaking evil machine. Maybe somebody should have a look at it and see if can be stopped somehow.

This list is incomplete, there are much more accounts, here is a list a little more (but still not enough 5-10 accounts minimum):
