4 connected accounts, they send merit to each other

Nothing connected there as far as I can see.

1) no mass merit. (Your title is incorrect)
2) The posts I looked at are not shitposts and in my opinion justify the merit they got. (I can understand why the user merited them)

Sending and receiving of merit is by no means "evidence" of anything. Users often read the same threads, speak the same language, are online around the same time and have the same interests.

3) Theyoungmillionaire is one of THE top posters on bitcointalk - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=merit;stats=topusersat

There would be no incentive for him to abuse the merit system. He has far more merit than he needs for ranking up. (His activity needs to catch up before he can rank up)

I very much doubt they are related - it looks like normal merit activity.

4) There is a thread for reporting merit abuse https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2896910.0  - no need to make a new one.

OP - the best way to fight merit abuse is to make good posts yourself like the one you got merit for.
As the airdropped sMerits run out the merits will be coming through the merit source channels and from users that got merit for good posts.
It will become increasingly hard for merit abusers to cheat the system.

Others will see what is considered a "good post" and either start following good examples or not rank up.

Ive noticed that my name is in your post. First of all let me clarify, in my almost 2 months here ive received merits from 3 different person which i think is not bad. Ive been observing in this forum and trying to give my smerit to someone's post helped me. It doesnt matter whether the post is really good, the reason why i give merits is that because that particular post helped me. One more thing one of the account that give me merit is last active since may 28, 2018. If i am the owner of that account why would i be not active anymore? Im active here in forum while that account that you're accusing of related account is not active for a month. And the other one that you are accusing already have 360 merits, why would he/she abuse the merit system? It just happened that i bumped in that post which actually helped me so why wont i give merit for that? You can check my post my friend as much as i could i try to post quality post to avoid being labelled as spammer. If you're intention is good to help the community then thanks but if you are here just to bring other people down then you must have concrete evidence. Sorry to those people whose name was drag in this post, theyoungmillionare i just saw that you are one of the top poster here in forum, sorry that you got involved in this accusation.

Actually I am not clear what is wrong with this all account.  I can't find any connection between them. Sent merit it dose not prove that they are connected. As well as theyoungmillionaire (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1180530) is an potential use with good reputation.
See here on top merit user list :

If you have personal problem with them solve it personally . Don't expose on bitcointalk.
I think you should lock this thread due to there is no any evidence of connected account or mass merit.
