You didn't post the username of these gang members; you just posted the merit link, so let me do it for you.
Yep, and I really wish OP would go back and edit that to show the usernames instead of just posting a link to the members' merit pages. That makes a lot of extra work for anybody who's curious enough to click on the links like I did.
I haven't read this entire thread yet (and probably won't, since I'm not interested in this particular drama), but unless LFC_Bitcoin is a merit source--which might well be the case, as he's one of the top recent merit senders--he can do whatever he wants with his sMerits. But in his particular case, he's earned so many merits from his own posts that I don't think it's a big deal at all that he sends merits to posts that might not be substantial.
What I don't like to see is negative feedback from members regarding issues that have little to do with someone's trade worthiness, and looking through some of the links here I did notice some of that. But as long as the members who left such trust (like nutildah) don't have a habit of doing it, there's no reason to take any action. So I'm not seeing a lot of wrongdoing here.
Short version of OPs third claim. Sportsbet falsely claiming that they paid WowPot instead of Global Gaming. This is an easy one. Individual casinos NEVER pay out WowPot’s since the money isn’t theirs. The money belongs to Global Games. All kinds of evidence, pic and links above. I’m not looking to hurt anyone’s reputation. That’s for the OP to run with.
