I gave few merits away and I never even opened someones history.

You need to look at some posters' history to see if the post is out of character. If it is, then it could indicate a purchased or stolen accout, or possible plagiarism.
Aside from that looking at a member's post history tells you a lot if he/she is really deserving to receive a merit. Sometimes if I visit someone's post history just to do a little background check I will notice that he only has just one good post (the one I am considering sending a merit) and the rest of it is trash, that is when I realized the chances of it being a copy-pasted post is high. The bottomline is doing background checks won't hurt as your sMerits are really limited and you must send it to people who are really deserving.
