You are not wrong, it's been a year since someone has been added new to the list.

The reason remains a mystery, that can be answered only by the admin.
You're wrong too. In OP of that thread, I updated it in September last year, with a latest change from 32990 to 33190 sourced smerit monthly while total merit sources are unchange at 109.

Probably he doesn't trust anyone?....

As a forum head admin, he has more data than what forum members have, and he knew more than what we knew. I believe that if theymos did not appoint any new merit source and did not increase monthly sourced merit after very long time - nearly 4 years since 06 July 2021, he has solid reasons for it and he surely did it based on data.
