I have a friend with legendary account here that already inactive for a long time. He is the one who mentor me on Bitcoin and introduce me this forum. He contribute some knowledge and spend time here during he is active.
So if your friend one day decides to return and takes part in bounty campaigns, he should have his airdropped merits removed? Or do we let him keep his merits due to his past forum contributions? There is no way to make that work without causing controversy, and we don't need more of that. Users should be motivated to join the forum, not be sent away.
He will definitely don't do that, He was a multi millionaire businessman before he introduced me this forum and he didn't participate in any campaigns here before. He loves mining different cryptocurrency and that is the only thing he do here. He loss his interest on visiting the forum since the mining community here is not that active compared before, He is just using discord to join in crypto mining group.
Sorry if I don't elaborate furthermore my statement. What I really want to emphasize are those newly woke up account which is a product of account selling that joining bounty campaign just like what OP describing.
