Interestingly the thread has been deleted by the moderators. I think that is probably due to it falling foul of the forums rule prohibiting incentivised posting.
Specifically, you are not allowed to give people any incentive to post insubstantial posts in your threads.
My highlighting on the difference between that thread and other Merit review threads.
That is a very important distinction. That is exactly what I was looking for, even though I've read everything theymos has said about merit and the guidelines/rules surrounding it multiple time, somehow I have missed that as relevant and important in this case. Good eye on that.
Since the thread I reference in OP has been handled by moderators and the user in question hasn't sent any significant amount of merit I'll be locking this thread. If they start another thread, I'll re-open this and reference the new thread with an updated link and a bump to accompany it.
