Good warning OP. If newbies buys merit they may possibly have the account with negative trust from the DT network, and then the money spent to buy the merit, will be spent for nothing.
Very important to say is that the transactions are one-way, which is why if you give money it is not said that eventually the merits arrive.
This is an easy way to scam people with promises of merit that they will never get.

Generally in most cases accounts are banned for plagiarism and if this and the case you can not do anything about it, it will never be unbanned.

The quality of a post can not have a fixed standard since it is an individual element and for this reason it is influenced by several factors including, the quality of a post, the unwillingness to use the merit key, personal emotional state etc.
Generally these values should not be "influential factors" for a merit source.
I can say that a post awarded, should be a post that is useful to the community with which you can also disagree but that has as its purpose to help the community.

Prevedo inoltre che il merit calerà nuovamente tra un po, non appena gli abuser finiscono di mandare gli alt agli account, dopo la nuova regola quasi 2000 accounts hanno fatto level up da newbie. Magicamente.  Beh questo ti facilita il lavoro no?  In pratica molti si sono smascherati da soli rivelando gli account connessi.... scommetto han la stessa firma partecipando in maniera sleale allo stesso bounty.... puoi “fare una strage”  se qualcuno ti seguisse e taggasse a ruota segnalando così ai bounty managerIl problema è che 1 merit non è nulla da passare/comprare. Il prezzo leggendo in giro sul forum è da 10-15 $ e ci sta gente che ne ha migliaia da vendere. Sarebbe molto figo se theymos mettesse 5merit come rank up, sarebbe molto più facile seguire gli abuser/sellers. |

Perhaps you have discovered a piece of ice from the iceberg. If it is limited to Potato18, he has two sMerits, so it will not represent a significant abuse of the system "theymos can delete it", but that account received merits from " WhiteShum" and " vitruvio" [tagged for probable merit abuse or Abusing bounty with alt accounts] ~ Whiteshum seems to have a lot of high rank accounts, the accusation was here if we want to do a deeper investigation Is this Legenday the main account of those abusers? 1 alt also missing red tag |

The start of new ERA!   Sono proprio curioso di vedere come influiranno queste nuove merit sources sulle tabelle e i grafici di coinlocket..... Spero in un bell'incremento dei merit circolanti Questa settimana di sicuro, prevedo un +100% minimo. Non dalle source ma dagli abuser che devono far rankare gli alt, in reputation ne stanno spuntando tanti.Diciamo che ci son andato molto vicino!

1 Merit for Jr. Member is still not enough. We need at least 5.
An account created 20 mins ago is already writing about the merit, why don't you post with your main account. Whatever, yes we need more merit required to rank up, or a decay every few weeks. Probably the 1st is better. |

I saw in the past some bounty manager abusing the bounty where they was managering paying their alts.
Now, you want really the risk to get a bounty manager as merit source and get the risk to have a bounty manager with 10 or more leveled up accounts?

Thankyou for the list, I can see many abusers here, it will a long work to report them all, also if you can update those data next week with next datas! It will be very fast way to find them out!
I've already found 2 abusers with this list, I will post the accusation later.

Hello After the new rule for newbie accounts we need some new stats, from the RAW file from theymos I' ve done this spreadsheet where we can see all transaction and find some users who sent 1 merit to owns alts to rank them up (or sell the merit). It's more likely that one account with 20-30 txID with 1 merit is an abuser in some way. The spreadsheet can be found here, I've ordered the transaction "FROM ID user" to users to see how many times the users will appear, I think this is the best solution, but if you want a copy to change something, you need to click on file and "save as copy" from there you can do whatever you want. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1R3dE2huMLqjvC1JpFUimRvXvktBxjD-Sgqw61S5oYhk/edit?usp=sharingFor example this week we have over 3000 transaction with 1 merit, the hunting to find who has more it's begun.  |

You should probably contact a DT which understands that language. Although I'm pretty sure giving 50 merits for a one-liner is a clear abuse, you need an evidence to back it up since giving merits/judging quality posts is completely subjective.
Before someone says it, I know it's not an optimal method, but let's say that we can understand the content of a post with the google translator, especially for sentences that contain a line. The link is the following and I set it to automatically translate the sentences from Turkish into English and as we can see the content of this message is somewhat poor to have merit. I can think from this fast tranlation they are merit seller, merit fam or "merit gift in hopes of tagging an account" even if I see it hard on newbie accounts. https://translate.google.it/translate?hl=it&sl=tr&tl=en&u=https%3A%2F%2Fbitcointalk.org%2Findex.php%3Ftopic%3D1675162.msg16883383From here you can copy paste the link of the merited message and/or change the language. |

Most of those accounts are russian, I read here on forum one guys sold his merit for 10$ each, now with the high request of merit, the value can be even 15$/merit, so nick777 could evend sold all this merit for almost 1k $. It's hard to say if he passed the merit to alts or sold it. |

Let's see what happens in a week or so, I do not think spam has dropped so much or am I wrong? I thought it would come to -50% but we are around 5-10% what do you think? how much do you think can go down?
The thing that seems more visible to me is the decline in deleted messages rather than the decline in written messages, but this is perhaps due to the fact that people are reporting fewer messages and therefore this value can be considered "untrustworthy".

Using bots is allowed, but the same rules apply as for humans: spam is not allowed.
That being said, I would say almost all "bounty reports" are spam, but somehow they're not moderated.
I agree come kind of bots can be allowed (utility bots), but the real question people who uses bot to cheat on bounty and for this reason the post thousands of reports on the forum created by social media bot are also allowed? Keep in mind those accounts also uses signatures and get money for their shitpost. |
