Re: Require a small amount of merit to become a Junior Member
I don't think that guys like this one are rare. In fact, one of the most troubling information is how he manages to have 200 accounts
To be honest, I think this is one of the small guys.
But the irony:

Yeah right
In addition, if newbies and Juniors CAN'T bump a thread, this guy "enterprise" will be pointless. 
This is probably the most requested feature lately and the only one that will really cut through the spam on the forum without any drawbacks.
But I would really love to hear theymos saying what he thinks about all the stuff that is proposed.
We know that newbie jail will not come back, that's a certain, so maybe if he would just tell us this will never get implemented or that he will give it a try it would stop this endless discussion on what should be done.
Maybe a highly trusted member or moderator from the forum could collect all the ideas that are spread over the meta section in a topic and with a bit of luck theymos will reply:
a) jr member level to require 3 merit ---- I'll implement it
b) newbies and jr members can't bump topic - Never
c) disable signatures for jr members - When hell freezes over
d) a 55-gallon drum of WD-40 when reaching 1000 merit ...theymos logged out
