I gave Lauda a merit because it made me laugh out loud when I read the trust comment that she gave you. That is a lot of cats to demand as "ransom." It appears that your attempt to get your red trust by offering to pay a ransom had the exact opposite effect. I was going to leave you alone, however I think I am now going to join this red paint party.
Sorry for my misunderstanding

. I was thinking that merit system have created for rewarding users who're sharing
valuable contents with the community. It seems I'm wrong... merit system is possible to use for rewarding jokers as well.
Is it the thing you're going to prove me after publishing 4946 posts herein this forum?Finally, worm welcomes to the red paint party and thanks for the red trust

Yes, humorous content deserves merit. For example, the movie "Airplane" is a silly farce; however it is one of the highest rated movies on Rotten Tomatoes. I give merit for a whole bunch of different reasons. You can check my recent merit history to see who else I merit. Apparently, theymos thinks I am doing an adequate job as a merit source since he is upped my monthly source merit twice since he granted it to me. Also, if I were in some sort of clandestine arrangement with Lauda, to give her merit, I'm doing a really bad job, since I'm only giving her a very small portion of all the merits that I give out.
