Merits will never have a value as they are not meant to be sold.

No further discussion needed unless you want people tagging you. Merits are meant to be earnt with quality posts. Sure you will see lots and lots of bias, but that won't last as once all the initial sMerits have been spread about people will need to earn them, something earnt is worth a shit ton more than something given

Accounts arent supposed to have a value, but they do, and this forum allows the buying and selling of them.

Its not written law that you cant buy or sell merit, its already happening off site on telegram, in discord.

I myself will be picking up a nice shinny new account with some extra merit, as this forum encourages account selling by allowing it to take places, merit is no different.

Prepare for the red tags fella.. DT members don't like this behaviour

Dislike it as much as you want, thats a blatant abuse of the trust system and a perfect example of why its slowly loosing all meaning outside trading boards

no its not, Trading accounts lead to scams.. that is a fact. Either scamming campaigns - by earning when not deserved, receiving airdrops or trying to scam people who trade. nothing good can come from account trading

Just because you decree something fact, doesnt make it fact.

You have zero evidence that every sold account contributes to scams.

Unless you have evidence to the contrary, all you have is an assumption that account sales leads to scams.

You can screen as loud as youd like, it wont matter if no one is listening

Basically the state of the trust system right now.

Could have negative trust and still conduct trades in the trading board no problem, but oh heaven forbid you want to enter a signature campaign, which is the only remaining facet that relies on the trust system.

There already word that most Bounty and signature campaigns will remove trust as a requirement and replace it with merit, which is perfect as it removes the power for abusing the trust feedback, and ensuring that its completely merit based

Tell me another reason someone would buy an account then.

Moving to merit is an awesome way for campaign managers to handle applications. BTW I have tons of positive trust and a negative or two from OG nasty. It doesn't stop me being added to a campaign or people stop trading with me.

The same reason some people pay $200+ for unlocks on games when you can play for free and earn them, they dont have time and want a sense of pride and accomplishment from having a higher ranked account.

The way merit is earned will also help Bounty managers ensure that they have good conversation going on and constructive discussion over when moon
