Today i see a Posting from this Account https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=258817

Can any one me explain this? Newbie +10 Post +10 Activity and +100 Merit
What is wrong with the System? I can not see this guy merit history and for his 10 Postings he get no Merit reward from other Users
Is the Merit System buggy or have newbie with old register age will have merits, that will be very unfair for the newcomers Newbie/Jr. Member/Member. So this User can rank up very fast with low quality post only with activity.
I'm confused! I think this is not this what theymos want...

Nothing unusual. Check his registration date, seems that all the posts were deleted and that's why the activity went 0 but the merits are there. I guess it's a tradet account and the buyer is covering tracks by deleting old posts of the previous owner.

How can that be? Even if his account was very old i didnt think that even the activities of this account will also disappear. I, too have an old account and successfully recovered it and at first I though that the activities will be faster if I try burst posting in there but, hell no, the activities are just the same like the newcomers. And I also have the experience of having my posts deleted and how come that my activities aren't gone?
I can't seriously think of it as you said. I think it was just a bug because a hundred is the default merit number for FULL MEMBERS after the system was fully established.
