The administrators and moderators have enough to deal with simply keeping the forum clear of spam, they do not have time to analyse post quality. Also, the issue of alt accounts meriting each other is invalid, they would need to be high quality alt accounts to have sMerit to spend in the first place. In my opinion, I think high quality alt accounts would contribute more to the forum than s***posting newbie or Jr accounts.
Come on we who are not "One of the boys" can see whats going on here and unless you sing from the correct book
then you will see few merits because some like myself get banned and others not made from the right stuff get
chased off.
A simple look the the activity to merit ratio tells the story, look at mine and note that the OP fears a ban too.
