If you have to pay $20 per merit plus a risk of getting red trust, then that's a situation that doesn't concern me at all. I'm not going to lose sleep over people going to ridiculous lengths to buy merit, since only a small number of people will be willing and able to do that.

As long as merit sales are a black market, I'm happy, since that makes it far more difficult and expensive to buy merit. If that's the case, then the small volume of black-market merit trades don't themselves bother me much, and I think that it does more harm than good to get too witch-hunty about it.

I think it's more like buying a single Merit to reach Jr. Member and continue bounty spamming.

Sounds like the rank requirements could get higher? I am not necessarily speaking about merit, but also activity. In a way in which none of these 2 attributes can give significant advantage to the users on their own, but only combined.
