@InvoKing: Seems like you have done some research about this Japanese board. I assume your numbers are correct. I have noticed more merit abusing on the local boards than the regular boards, it's the feeling I get. I have investigated 16 merit abusing cases where I found over 60+ abusers and red tagged those users so I guess my feeling is based on experience. It contains some weight, not just a feeling I got out of the thin air.
I am still awaiting for Anon11073 to see his statement against this acquisition.
My suggestion: "Bounty manager (Staff!) embezzling $4000".
I do think the same like you. May be the title needs a bit of tweaks.
