You just create an article, with links to fraudulent posts, top members will look at.

I think this is the list that you are looking for, thread is created by killyou72

There's another one but this is a result of his own investigation. Thread was created by mdayonliner

[update - 09/05] Merit Abuser Gang [17 Cases and 14th yet to be completed

You can start your own thread just like what mdayonliner did and no one stopping you from doing that but its much better if there's only one thread per issue so there's no need to jump from one thread to another if one finds the same merit abuser.

And to add some, make sure you have a solid proof before you accuse someone. All people can say that this "a" is friends with "b" because he/she sends merits to the "b". If you have solid proof then do it.

Thank you guys, and what do you think abount multi-accounts? Is there any way do prove it?

Yeah, here's some great evidence of an alt account.  Brand new member posts this:

Look please,to posts the author of this topic, there more than a half bounty reports and everything else frank flood.So what about here at all speak?

And, I should add, his post is so garbled that it makes no sense whatsoever.  Unfortunately alt accounts aren't against the rules here, though using them to cheat bounties is.  Report anything you find in the known alts thread, but only the cheaters are going to get red-tagged.  Merit abusers, that's another story.  It has to be very blatant.

If you're a DT-2 you can directly send them a negative trust. I noticed that when I send merit to some posts which is good to be merited they also send me back. As what I've learn sending 1 or 2 Merits back isn't an abuse if the posts  the had been merited is meritorious but sending 10-50 merits to crappy post that's the very abusive mass merit farming. In terms of reporting you should have enough proof to your reports.
