Updating merit data of local session since I became meirt source:



And here are the top merit senders of our local board:



Special note for sabotag3x, who was the former merit source of our local session, and had to leave the forum for a couple of months. He is now back. It was hard to outpace him

And also here congrats for becoming an Merit source .
You deserved it and also here nice to see new Merit Sources .

Yeah spread them out and let the Merit circly on the Forum.

And i hope to see some other new Merit sources too

I hope you will spend them wisely and keep contributing as you do

welcome!!!!!!

I received a Pm from theymos. I am now a merit source =D

Thanks everyone for the support!

I got so many smerits 
will do my best to spend them all!!!

bumping my thread for visualization.

I am still second top merit giver in Portuguese board, behind our only merit source. I have very few sMerits left.

I used https://public.tableau.com/profile/ddmrddmr#!/vizhome/BitcointalkMeritDashboard/GlobalSummary made by DdmrDddmr and made this images

We can clearly see a downtrend in Merit received in Portuguese Local, but not in other locals

Got this data from Portuguese, Spanish, Italian, Philippines and Arabic






I believe those images shows that merit is just gone in local Portuguese board. People were airdropped, then they received 4, gave 2, then received 2, gave 1, and poof, gone.


Sabotag3x alone cannot do much there. I cannot do much as well.
According to the same source, Sabotag3x is the top merit giver with 527 merit. Followed by me (203) and Loganota 146 and Paredao 145.

Even Darkstar_, who just passed by one day, is a top merit giver lol



Just for comparative purposes, Spanish board (which has fewer posts than Portuguese local)
Paxmao 1833
DdmrDdmr  569
seoincorporation 133

There's a signature campaign running since 08/aug.. 10 posts/week, 9 members, for sure it helped.


There's a lot of good technical content that deserve more merits

eg
1

2

3

4

5

6

From an objective point of view, the numbers state a potentially contradictory situation on the Portuguese Local Board:

a) On the one hand, the number of Net created posts seem to be picking-up over the past few months (excluding Altcoins for this exercise). Since January 2019, the number of posts has more than doubled, and even tripled during August 2019. Specifically, the Brazilian child board, and the Main board have picked-up a lot of traction over the past few months.

b) On the other hand, the number of merits distributed on the local board is "stable". That is, since January 2019, the number per month is on average 91,5, with it’s ups and downs, but it does not follow the volume of created posts in that same timeframe. Note that September is Partial with data as of last Friday.

Number on Net created posts (see https://public.tableau.com/shared/Q7FJSFDYR?:display_count=yes&:origin=viz_share_link):
  

Number of awarded sMerits (https://public.tableau.com/shared/3885JQQZJ?:display_count=yes&:origin=viz_share_link):
 

Now of course I cannot myself add much subjectivity as to the quality/interest of the posts themselves (that is for locals to point out), or why the surge of the number of posts, but the above could be a pointer that it may be in need of a review.

Disclaimer: Net post are the number of posts created – deleted- moved. Since I cannot disassociate the three concepts, I cannot tell whether a specific set of months have had a heavy contribution to the number due to moderation, lowering the total post count for a given month by means of moderation and not a decrease in organic posting.

Bumping again after some time.

I still think Portuguese board lacks merit sources.
There are many locals such as Indonesian, Russian, Germany, etc where users are able to obtain enough merits just by posting in local boards.

That's not the case of the Portuguese board, where only like 5-10 individuals were able to rank up after the introduction of the merit system

bitmover, he think you abuse trust system because of your negative trust rating which is result of this thread. If we would interpret the rules literally, then such negative rating should not be given just because we think someone is not trustworthy.

Far away from defending or attacking someone in this case, after all trust feedback is not moderated by anyone - it completely depends on the will of the individual.

This reply demonstrates you are clearly too low functioning to be a merit source.

You have abused red trust on our account. Show us where we scammed or tried to scam any person out of money? next you claim we "attacked" your with no provocation. That is observable foolish and demonstrates you are clearly too stupid to be entrusted with giving out merit.

If you use a persons own account (that has not scammed anyone or tried to scam anyone out of money ever or been in a scenario where they could of scammed a person out of money) and say you believe their account (and others) should be glowing red as a danger warning to other members as high risk of scamming. You are a fucking imbecile as we correctly pointed out.  Just because you do not like that valid criticism being related to you in those terms, does not mean we are untrustworthy. It actually means we are being direct and to the point (very trustworthy). We are helping you realize you are clearly incorrect, whilst defending ourselves against your attack.

You have demonstrated that you are emotional and will use board metrics for your own political ends.

Instead of trying to debate your side of the argument you just ran crying to red trust with some mental gymnastics that said: I can't argue or debate and prove my point is optimal. So will with no accountability (because others have abused this account before) I will reach for red trust as a political tool. You did not refute or debunk our point. You can not.

No sorry , no imbeciles or those that leave frivolous red trust and then even boast about the abuse ON thread.

If you have no talent or skill to win a debate through reason and logic then you have use as a merit source that should be using reason and logic to discern which posts provide REAL VALUE with regard reaching the optimal opinion or solution.

Playing dumb or in your case being dumb are not the credentials best suited to the merit source position.



NEXT PLEASE !!! No more idiots throwing merit tantrums and merit parties to their pals. Let's reign in merit to the posts that add value in terms of reaching the optimal outcome. Reaching for the systems of control in an attempt to validate or invalidate your own or other persons arguments is the biggest flaw the board still has.

I abuse the trust system? My trust is 0-0-0 
Please tell me where and how I am abusing the trust system. Show me how am I getting any benefit from this abuse.

Show my merit abuse please.

This person is not fit for being a merit source. We hope theymos will never allow persons that are low functioning and abuse the trust system like this fool bitmover an opportunity to abuse the merit system like he abuses the trust system.

Strike his application like any other person that knowingly abuses any system of control.

The guy is a complete imbecile. How can such a moronic fool be expected to discern a posts of value from one of complete garbage like his own.

I see that your application for the source of merit, as well as my application, will soon be 1 year )))

I support your merit source application! Good luck!

New bump!!
To give new life to Brazilian community

I @cryptopreneurBrainboss endorse @bitmover. I believe he's worth/deserve to be a merit source. Theymos when appointing new merit source bitmover should be consider he's application (quoted posts)  are merit worthy and his application has been active for over 7months now still he didn't give up hope. He should be given a chance to assist the other merit sources highlight quality post through meriting them.

I recognize bitmover as an established member of the community and I support him to become a merit source. I hope this helps you good luck!

Bump after some months.

One merit source was added to Portuguese board, but it's not enough in my opinion.

Other boards like the Russian and Indonesian have highly merited users, but Portuguese board does not. Nobody is able to rank up just posting in the Portuguese board.
