Ok, I'll start off by saying I do see the method in the madness here with the new ranking rules.. BUT..
As an older user of bitcointalk that had an account compromised with no btc address or signed accounts, I agree with the "Merit" System for ranking. (
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2818350.0)
There are users and profiteers that hold several accounts in order to get AirDrops in order to resell (and for no other reason at all.. It totally pisses me off).
I've had to claw my way back to this Jr Member status which IS my one-and-only account in bitcointalk.
How about we regulate and report those posting to buy Sr Member accounts in order to scam. I feel that these profiteers have really screwed the system that we all know and love. Perhaps a section JUST for Air Drops with more strict moderation?
Next we will start seeing people offering Merits for sale? I don't know.. Anyway. It's always a few bad apples that spoil the bunch.
I'd hate to sound like a YouTube Vlog - BUT
"If you like the topic, please send a "Merit" and you'll be given (lets say something like Amazon Gift card etc etc.. or a Ferrari perhaps"You get my Jist.. Any ideas how to stop multiple accounts I think is worthwhile.. Maybe 2FA or something along those lines.. VPN's are pretty futile as anyone can have expressVpn or others to open mulitiple accounts.. I'm just pulling at straws here..
Cheers
Paul
