3.@Cantsay in a way
admits that what he is doing is a good way to earn merits and advertise his sig campaign.
That si imho a weak explanation. It would be more beliveable if he said that he has that whole post already written somewhere and saved just in case, but to see a new topic and write all that in only 44 seconds? I honestly doubt that.
If I had written it somewhere and then start copying and pasting them in every newbies thread that means I would have made plagiarized posts more than once and besides what’s there to write down?
“Welcome to Bitcointalk, + introducing links to help them learn about bitcoin + in some case how to use search ( which I recently started adding + encouragement to ask questions” if I had to write this post down in my notepad that means I’d have been making my quick replies that has nothing to do with newbies introduction when the page has gotten to 3 or 4.
By the way, we had similar cases in the past where some members were doing exactly this: using alt account to create new topics, then answering with main one knowing that early replies usually gets the most amount of merit so this woudn't be a first one.
I have participated in providing proofs for cases that are similar to this so I know how fruitless it is to try to grow an account by creating alts and then self-meriting.
