It all started with this: forum user
Smart man (hero member) was caught on hiring posters for the bumping service.
The post with proofs was placed in
Meta and then moved in
Local board section. It was February 4th. Everyone in the local ignored this information.
On June 8, another user found additional evidences against the Smart man (offering a bumping service) and
published it.
Let's look at this evidences:

Translation:
REQUIRED POSTING IN ENGLISH THREADS
1. Contact me if in your accounts at least half of the posts in English.
2. Posts up from 100 signs.
3. Express an opinion about the project, ask questions. Don't write nonsense.
4. English is not Google translate.
5. You have from 5 accounts.
For save space the remaining proofs, I will write immediately in the translation, links to the original sources
here.
I will completely do (with the command) the required:
- posting messages to thread on btt.
~
Hi guys looking for posters for a project. Write your telegram in pm.
So what exactly is needed? Posts on btt, thread bumping on btt? Writing articles? PM me.
And some others, but that's enough.
Surprisingly, this did not lead to tagging Smart man. Many "honored" members began to aggressively defend him. For this reason there was a scandal. But the "honored" members did not change their opinion.
Now I will give these opinions immediately in translation. If you need a translation of the entire page, I will do it. A lot of text, but it is very important. I want you to understand the scale of the problem.

Screenshot 1: - What are we talking about here? Based on the text of the announcement, I don’t understand what is specifically proposed, because it’s one thing when it comes to a group of people, each of whom has an account and is interested in the project, or else it’s about one participant with accounts.
~
To tag an account - I personally need proof of its violations - by 200% so that I have no doubts about the negative that a particular scammer brings to the forum. And the fact that the scammer’s goal is only profit and deception of participants. In this case, I do not see even 10% (this is my personal opinion) of deception.

I saw that he was hiring in posting service, in good English, with a requirement for the quality of the content (both volume and content). There is no evidence that this is a promotion of scam projects, that the service has been implemented by shitposting-not proven, the existence of the service itself from this post is also in question.

Alex_Sr (Hero member, DT-1)
For whom did I write about the search of proofs?
Reasonable questions to be asked:
1. What accounts were hired?
2. What threads did they write in?
3. Give examples of messages, how many messages are deleted as spam?
4. Was there a contract at all?
There are answers to these questions - there is a red trust, there are no answers to these questions - there is no red trust. It seems accessible and understandable?

I assume that in this case either there is not enough evidence that these people worked specifically to Smart man and on these projects, or at the time of the job offer there was simply no evidence that the project was a scam, or the third option - he personally did not advertise the scam project. And maybe all this together. In the English-speaking topic there was a member of the DT1 list - suchmoon, and as I said, knowing the Russian language, but he did not send a negative tag to Smart man, that means there are reasons for that.
and similar responses from
johhnyUA (Hero member),
smak9 (Sr. member)
It was a big discussion, but the general pattern of the responses of the listed people is: There is no evidence to tag.
There were some other patterns, such as accusations of trolling, the threat to tag me (and
fxpc, who found additional evidence against Smart man), but I threw them away as irrelevant.
This model of behavior did not change even when two DT
kzv (Hero member, DT-1),
MaoChao (Legendary, DT-1) members expressed the opinion that the available evidence directly speaks about hiring in a bumping service and offering a bumping service.
The only change that happened -
Chimik excluded
kzv from his trusted list and added him to the list of users whom he does not trust!
I was very surprised by all this and tried to understand what was going on.
I began by studying the bpip profile of
Smart Man.
Immediately I saw a very interesting thing:
Merit Fans of Smart man
Profile
chimk top 1 merit Fan of Smart man and top 1 favorite profile to send sMerit to from Smart man
yo-blin favorite profiles to send sMerit to - Smart man, top 1.

t39 banned user, favorite profiles to send sMerit to - Smart man, top 1.
BlackWidow banned user, favorite profiles to send sMerit to - Smart man, top 1.
Such a unanimous love for Smart Man seemed to me suspicious and I decided to study the profile of these fans.

Of course, the abuse did not end on banned or "legit"users, for example:
ethalliance got merit from tema,
Fragan and
Tia0315 (both got 10 merit from red trusted
toptek), send merit to banned
Milla Kross who sent merit to banned
Masha Me1 and so on.
So
tema is the champion in sending merit to abusers and he still did not tagged or banned.
What about

If you study the
history of his merit, then you can find a huge number of abusers as trader_999, Yury1, BlackWidow etc that sent merit to him... but the first 5 are enough. Why?

the topic where Smart Man offers his services (writing WP and promotion of ICO) and allegedly communicates with customers. Within 10 minutes, I discovered that most of the discussion participants were alts of Smart Man. To save space and time I will show the most interesting ones:

You will say that these are minor details to the facts that already exist? No, I'll explain later why. We continue:
There are banned user
Afina_22She sent merit to Smart man and was connected to him through other abusers. She is the topic starter (in russian local) of scam project
Adab SolutionsWho started the
topic in the English section? -
whitetoo 3/25/2018 9:53:53 PM password changed
3/25/2018 10:26:45 PM password changed
Smart man himself confessed that he collaborated with Adab and received money from them, but everyone pretended that they did not notice this. Even after
I pointed it out!
I thought that I was not Sherlock, but I easily find something that others do not see. Although if you are aggressively defending Smart Man, then you should at least superficially examine his profile. Although there is a possibility that the defenders know everything perfectly well, but they hope that other people will not pay attention to it. There are so many banned users and so many connections between them (through merit and not only through it) it's hard not to see all this.
And... Smart man is the topic starter of
THIS topic where he talks about reducing the punishment to banned users caught in plagiarism! And of course, the active participants in this topic are those users whom I mentioned at the beginning of this topic and who pretend to be professional blind when the talk goes about Smart Man. And check the topics in meta about
markiz73,
kirreev070 etc. If you want to lauth check signature of
johhnyUAI continued and decided to study this topic:

So much red. And this is without taking into account the many smaller users.
