Done , we are waiting for DT member to red tag this law breakers .
I can't find back the link, but as far as I know theymos disapproves of red trust for merit abuse. Also, they didn't break any forum rules.
So what are you proposing that be done against shady behavior regarding the merit system? Nothing? Or are you simply saying that *we could/should* tag them, but that some of the tag's by actmyname were unwarranted?
I think that tagging may be appropriate in particularly obvious cases, or particularly egregious cases involving hundreds of merit points and several posts. But generally you should start out by assuming good faith, and only change that opinion as the evidence really piles up. Tagging someone immediately after an instance of apparently-inexplicable meriting is too trigger-happy IMO. Even if it is a case of illegitimate merit, even
hundreds of illegitimate merit points are not much of a problem IMO, so you have to ask whether it's worthwhile to
possibly make a mistake by tagging someone who is merely suspicious.
Now, I'm not
100% sure that actmyname's ratings are outside of what I would consider appropriate, which is why I didn't take action to immediately remove him. But from what I've seen, it does seem likely that he is too trigger-happy.
