Sheesh, is that 500 participants not banned as of right now, or 500 participants total of which 300 are banned? Either way that's an insane amount of participants, I wonder how they can fund that. They're investing an insane amount of money into getting their forum off the ground.

I still think there should be a Merit restriction, either x total or y in the past 60 days, something like that. Would probably make your job significantly easier but I suppose that it's not your decision to make but Yobit's instead.
