Well, I think those users who are always arguing about the merit system are the ones who are not competent enough to try give quality to this forum. Or they don't really care about the forum. They are only concerned about earning and they find it hard to earn a bit higher rates in this forum.
Though I am also having a hard time on the merit system, I am loving it at the moment. As a concerned user of this forum, the system runs smoothly and mods already caught lots of farm and alts.
It extends the forums life.
Topic: Earning merits/smerit (Read 529 times)
Earning merits are quite difficult but its for the forums sake to avoid low quality post. Spamming is the number 1 problem in this forum but now, the merit system is implemented the shit posters are lessen. So lets just report them so that they will be elimanated or get banned.
Also, from this thread, we can say that farmed account users are now having a hard time ranking up all their accounts at once. Also we can see their connections to each other since they are giving merits to each other. Merit is doing pretty well not only on shitposters or spams but also in these matter, not only doing well, it is doing great.
People will find their ways to overcome something but they are doing it in the wrong way. Still, if they figure something out to abuse the system; there will be always someone that will find them doing it wrong and the mods giving the right punishment for their wrongdoings. Let's not focus on these people that want to earn their merit and climb to the top abusing the system, it is not our job though we can help, let's focus more on making and creating good posts that will earn our well-deserved merits.
I think the merit system is useful, it's like when you give a slap on a race horse LOL makes the horse raced to run faster and faster. But if there are parties who use merit for personal gain (abuse, trade) of course it will make many growled. So before there are many more parties that cons about merit better moderator immediately block the accounts that do abuse against the merit.

merits difficult to obtain, many new people complain, the forum allows newcomers to increase the online duration such as 1 month to 1 merit, so that you can reduce the black market
No, it won't happen surely because it will go inversely with original purpose of merit system when Theymos (admin) launched it.Allocating / rewarding merit points based on online duration is stupid idea. More online time doesn't mean those users are contributive ones. They are likely spend more time in the forum to spam their shitty posts, and again quantity will dominant quality.
Good members can still spend less amount of time, but can be much more constructive than spammers. It's the fact.
Conclusion, Theymos will never allocate merit points based on online duration of forum users. Never!

Only shitpostes and "don't care about forum" people hates our new system. This is the only thing that can stop members here doing shitpost and one-liner while earning huge money in altc. Do you think about that? You're just thinking only yourself and don't care about the forum.
If you can't earn merits while you are posting more and more, the merit system is not the problem, you. That's why you are hating the system that has many advantage to our forum. Then if this is the case, you are not allowed to hate it just for not receiving merits, hate the quality of your post.

Unfortunately a forum cannot function or change its rules based on what you hate or love about it. It is not right to just think of our own benefits and neglecting the spam going on this forum. One thing that most of the new people do not realize that if this forum does not take strict actions against spam, it will become useless. There will be hundreds of useless posts repeating the same advice and all the good posts will be lost in that crowd. Will any advertiser like to advertise on such a forum ?

Less evolved primates do tend to resent the system, as they keep randomly hitting those keys with letters on them that they don't understand, and then they all sit around the dinner table as a family of 28, wondering why they're not ranking up.
Classy.
- How they can stop them?
- What sanction for them?
- What sanction for them?
You've got your answers on how to police them from the links you provided. People will keep reporting them once discovered and if it's found out that they're farming or trading merit between themselves then their accounts will be ruined with negative feedback. Most people will figure it's not worth the risk but for those who do try it and get caught all the accounts that are involved will likely be ruined from ever joining a campaign so hopefully most will just accept that and learn to earn merit the natural way rather than take the gamble.
Thank you for the good message us, like you I was hoping that it gives lessons to many users and to those people who's trying or attempting to cheat. Please don't do a thing that makes ruin to your life.

Bitcointalk is supposed to be the path out of poverty, isn't it?
Didn't their friend tell them they could make bank on bitcointalk just by answering simple questions with some pre-written answers?
Fuck me, I'm tired of this foolishness.
As advise to many users stop making fooled all people inside this sites because even how secretly they do cheating their smell are always spreading. They can't hide it for long period of time, because people in this site are not stupid like what they are thinking.

it's still another barrier to account farmers and discourages spamming, there's no reason to do away with it, it just doesn't work as effectively as people thought it would, from what i've been able to glean off here in the past few hours. Who likes Merit?

Is it possible to do auto ban to users sending merits to accounts under the same IP? If this is possible, it will greatly reduce merits exchange and abuse using alt accounts
along with theymos's stance on alt accounts, i dont think this will ever be a thing (especially since a lot of users might share ip addresses if they are using the same vpn server / tor node), although it would prove to be effective given that the point i put in the parentheses there was a nonfactor.
