[3] Should participants be accepted only if they meet a certain amount of merits in the past 1-2 months prior applying to the campaign (and also prior being accepted inside the campaign)? And another suggestion here, the merit number could be fixed for each kind of rank, but lower for low rank users and bigger for higher rank users. Currently, out of 21 signature campaigns, only 4 or 5 have a merit requirement; can such requirement be implemented for all campaigns? But I'm not talking about a trivial minimum threshold as the actual one is (5 merits); I'm talking about a serious threshold, such as 20-30 merits.
I'd like to answer this one, for me, it's not mandatory merit are subjective and it's all up to who appreciate your posts, well I do appreciate your posts because it invites lengthy conversation for a long period of time so I gave you merit, I have seen a lot of great posts on this forum and they do reserve merits but they hardly getting one, I once applied to a bounty campaign and I only have 2 merits but I beat those who have 10 merits or more maybe because on how I post, where I post and when I post, a good manager knows how to pick a good poster merit or without merit, and it's not about the length of post but how the post connects to the subject or topic.
