Glad Vod made the call to tag this guy, because I got a PM from OP about this and I'm not tagging people for merit abuse/begging. But in a case as blatant as this, I do think he deserves some sort of censure.
I understand Theymos is not a fan of red trust for merit begging (as I get reminded constantly in PM by those I tag - they seem to be very aware of the rules) but I feel it is critical to maintain some resemblance of consequence in this forum. Otherwise, everyone would beg for merit.
