To be honest, I don't see the point in creating a thread like this. If it were up to you, what fate do you wish for the users whose names can be seen in your OP and the ones that got mentioned along the way? Would you be happy if they got banned, received negative trust, or if theymos reverted the merit transactions? Do you want the merit sources to lose their positions? Were you cheated somehow? Treated unfairly?

There is one rule about sending merits: there are no rules!
The only one we have is that merit sources are not allowed to sell their merits. That's where the restrictions begin and end. Everything else is subjective and my good/bad nature.
