Please read the thread completely before commenting.

I did and it was a waste of time. You haven't even red-trusted the alleged perp yourself and you built a massive conspiracy theory on a lot of assumptions.

Please check facts, it is not a theory.

No-one is disputing the facts. The issue is with the assumptions. Issues with the Russian local boards is best dealt with by Russian DTs on that board. There are numerous Russian DTs that I trust that are in a much better position to judge it than non native speakers.

Individual assessments are made. Not every slight or breaking of the rules will be punished.

It is clear that Theymos wants to reserve flag judgement to only the most prolific scammers. How trust is allocated is up to individual DT members.

Like Suchmoon said - you have made all these accusations but you haven't placed any trust yourself. Why are you expecting others to do something you won't even do yourself ?

chimk is a merit source with a huge monthly allocation of sMerits. He's likely to be the biggest "fan" of any decent poster on the Russian boards. That doesn't mean there's "corruption".

There is definitely an issue of many permabanned users getting merit. I think the main issue is that plagiarism is hard to detect and often fools the reader into believing that it is a good quality post.

However there is no proof that it is part of a conspiracy or corruption. It could also mean that the moderators on the Russian board are doing a great job catching and banning plagiarists.
