You received 116 merit in 17 consecutive days. From March 5, 2019 to March 21, 2019.
Thank you for finding that for me! I did try to visit the page but for some reason it wouldn't load, and I just gave up after a while.
And man....I was certainly correct that my longest streak was nowhere near Filippone's. Not even close (although if I had to guess when I wrote my previous post I would have thought it was longer). Nevertheless, streaks don't matter to me personally because I know there are some days when I don't post much--or at all--and some days when what I post probably doesn't catch anybody's attention enough such that they want to merit any of it.
If I'm honest, my merit count has mattered less and less to me as time has passed, though it does supply me with sMerits I can redistribute to other members when my source sMerits run out. That's me, though. There's nothing wrong with being proud of the merits you've earned or what your longest streak was. Despite what a lot of members say, merits aren't easy to earn. If they were, we'd have far more members ranking up past Jr. Member each activity period, and though I don't know what the exact numbers are on that, I'm pretty sure it's much, much lower than it was before the merit system was foisted upon the forum back in 2018.
Of course, it had to be done.
It was reverse psychology, wasn’t it?
Dear lord, my mind is so easy to trick!
That wasn't my intention; I meant what I wrote, but I do thank you for the merits nevertheless. As I mentioned, more merit received=more sMerits I can send when Theymos doesn't replenish my source sMerits.
