It's good that we're being honest lately. Here's an honest question of mine: what are the mitigating factors of having a 12-year-old account? If you think this deserves a neutral feedback, then you should do it regardless the reputation of the user, otherwise you're being dishonest to the new users.
But why?.. tchh! Accountability is part of the core problems we have in our community... Even in my newbie days, I tried as much as possible to point out so many cases that proved our merit system is biased; several elite members never seem to agree with it -
though it was obvious already.., they keep beating about some petty sentiments that doesn't even correlate with the proper way of recycling merits ... You could choose to merit only elite members like yourself if you were never a merit source but; It's a different thing if you've been appointed/allocated merit for sourceship -- you have a duty... The case is different today.
