Problems arise when these accounts are used to abuse signature campaigns or for merit abuse. Airdropped merits on these accounts have become something that can be sold for a decent price. For example, Legendary accounts get 200 merits (in my case), and if you sell them for only $5 each it is easy $1000.

I saw many in the marketplace, many merit abuser selling merits. They sell each merit at a much higher price. Cost per merit is $20! Shocked

Many merit abuser may not have been caught by the community. But what I see is that, the users can not go too far by buying merit, they get stuck at a limited rank.

Why not we just hire him and see from which account he or she is going to merit and then just report?

Maybe, Team360 has bought some merits to rank-up... Many new people coming here making announcements believes that they must have some merit and greater rank so people can take their project seriously and I keep telling them that you do not need merit or bigger rank for your influence you just need a unique idea a perfect team and something that can make you better then and trusted then others.. people just wants to be secure...

I think that we are not aware of merit market, Its already selling I see.

I hope people must learn that merit is something that must be earned not bought and it has nothing to do with your ideas you can get influence if you are genuine... that's all.
