In fact, there is nothing wrong with that. The task of any merit source is to evaluate useful posts and ... that's it. We do not guarantee that the user to whom we have sent merit will always adhere to the rules. I believe that it is worth worrying only if you sent merit to posts containing plagiarism. Then you should work on your attentiveness and more carefully check the posting of users before evaluating it.

I watched you want to motivate newbies for a while as you gave them 1 or more merit. Believe me, it was just for fun, nothing more. And I understood your motives very well. But since you yourself said it out loud, then for a quick check you can simply add an extension from prepostseo, or sometimes check the texts from newbies creating themes.

These people do not want to accept or read the rules, but they quickly learn from whom and how to get merit. By creating new topics, there is a better chance of earning merits.
I often complained about plagiarism from newcomers. And you can also understand that not everyone is ready to check any texts, since they do not have time for such checks. But sometimes it makes sense and also teaches others not to abuse trust and start thinking and writing for themselves.
