Title: Sending Merit to his other account
Post by: snapee11 on May 04, 2018, 06:58:29 AM
I just saw a member with ten merits from a single low quality and short opinion post sent from a single person. It seems unfair for others and I think this two accounts are owned by one person only trying to rank himself effortlessly.

Try to view this link https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=merit;u=1923070

You should have included the profile link of those two accounts and the link of the post. So that Mods can take action if they are really guilty :)

Since your thread doesn't contain any important information, this will be considered as a spam thread.

The merit sender account is MintDice and the receiver is MintDiceSupport,
Whether he/she is trolling or just completely dumb

I'll go for the second...

Pretty obvious he did this only to rank up to member.

This is the post that deserved 10 merits.

Generally speaking, I would advise against doing this unless you have a lot of money to invest. Economies of scale apply to mining.

But why did he want to rank up, I don't get it. He is just advertising his own website in his signature, a "coming soon site" and I see no reference of mintdice in any of their his/her posts, no topic, no nothing. So there was no financial incentive to do this ??? ??? ???

Well, looks like MintDice (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1346119) and MintDiceSupport (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1923070) is not the only person behind this illegal Merit tramsaction or should I call "Merit Abuse".

I conducted some investigation and here is what I found.
This account theskillzdatklls (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=100595) is the real owner of this two alt account (MintDice and MintDiceSupport) and he/she just sent 20 + 20 (40) Merits to MintDiceSupport

Here is the proof that theskillzdatklls is the owner of these two alt account.

As you can see, they are all connected to the same site which is Mintdice.com so there is no doubt that this is the owner. No one will send 40 Merits to anyone except if the account that will receive Merits is his/her alt account.

Everything is clear as I stated my conclusions and evidence. This three accounts are guilty. What happened here is a "Merit Abuse" and they must receive their punishment.

I will add this to my report.
