Re: Crypt0S0ul is spamming...

Crypt0S0ul is a product of our own mistakes as a community.  Many established members have taken to rewarding "Alt Hunters" simply for connecting alts with the most circumstantial of evidence.  Regardless of whether the alts are breaking rules or not, some members shower the Alt-Hunters with merits and attention just for linking accounts to each other.

Crypt0S0ul is just the latest (probably an alt account in it's own right,) to take advantage of the situation in an attempt to rank up.  Next thing you know, some DT1 member will add Crypt0S0ul to his trust list, making him DT2.  It wouldn't be the first time.

So, I'll ask a question to those established members who reward this kind of behavior; what value do these Alt Hunters actually add to the forum?
Let's add more.
Scam busting. It seems to be a profession since the merit system started. Very easy way to climb on the DT network.
Tutorial. I have not seen so many tutors in the forum before 2018. I used to be in Beginners & Help section but these days I occasionally visit there.
Then there are translators of course. A great invention was copying local websites and translate them to English or copying English websites and then translate them to local language. People did that and they have done well before it was noticed by others.

Anyway, one thing forum users realized that they have to do something to rank up.

What you're hinting? Do you want to be rewarded too for discovering a second Chahan account (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5410602.msg60791269#msg60791269), or for hunting down mythical non-existent scams?

So, I'm asking you a question, what value do you bring to the forum with these searches?
Please stop. You don't care about the forum but yourself.
