If you find that merit is not worth it, can you give RED TRUST?

That would be bad as it can easily be abused. Say user A doesn't like user B. Then user A buys Merit to give to a bad post made by user B. You're saying user B should get red trust, while user B is innocent in this scenario.
A deMerit on the merited bad post would solve this without harming user B.

Rather than hunting them down, I would really like to see two things implemented:
a) (this was also LoyceV idea, I think!?) an automated system where you either
- lose 1 merit for every 100 or whatever activity if you wear a signature for even a second during an activity period

This would be a much better solution, but I think it's less likely to be implemented. I'd be okay with dropping my LoyceBot from Full Member down to Member, but it won't even happen as long as it doesn't make new posts.
I don't think the complication of checking for a signature is needed though.

- you need at least one merit in the last x days to keep your signature active

I'm not sure how effective this will be.

b) this is going to piss off a lot of people but I would love to see all jr/full/sr/hero or legendary members who haven't earned a single merit since the system was implemented without the possibility of displaying a signature

Now Newbies are complaining that old accounts got their Merit airdrop for spamming. If you have 1000 Merit, but didn't earn anything for the last 100 Activity you gained, I don't think you have any right to be pissed about it.
