You two don't understand how the merit system works. 500 alts would have 0 sMerit to give away. :/
I Know....
If I have not misunderstood in the Russian section, if I report a spammer with the "report to moderator" I have a chance to have a reward in Merit.
From here, if I create 500 alts to spam and report them with my main account, I will increase my chances of having Merit.
@eddie13, 500 is a symbolic number can be even 1, (but more is better for the newbie spam protection timer).
I like this idea because I personaly report many messagges but it easy exploitable.
I have no doubt about the goodness of the gesture of mod but I know the human tendency to turn the rules for a personal profit.
