@steve57
Your first post is a question. You are asking the community for help and advice about crypto.
Sorry but I didn't find anything in your posts worth meriting.
@Snowflower11
You will get the 1st Merit.
I have decided to lower the Activity requirement to 30+.
I added an update to the Rules: ONLY Newbies who have not received a single Merit will be considered.
This thread is now open again, 3 Merits remaining for 3 Newbies who comply with the rules.

Yeah I understand, hopefully if you lower it for next round I will qualify as I am about to hit 28 activity 
You got it wrong. You dont qualify for this. You have 2 merits and as soon as you reach 30 Activity level you will be promoted to Jr. Member. Therefore, you can have 2 Merits or 200 merits but you still need the required Activity level as well!Any newbie with 1+ merit only needs to reach the activity level 30 and he will become a J.Member.
I am going to update the Rules a bit adding that ONLY Newbies with 0 Merits qualify for this campaign.
I am locking the thread now and I will go through the applications that the users posted and make an update soon!
I would have loved to have applied 
Yes, like Fenya96 said, you wouldn't qualify since you are a Jr. Member in the making. As soon as you have the needed amount of Activity you will be upgraded.Yeah I understand, hopefully if you lower it for next round I will qualify as I am about to hit 28 activity
I'd be interested if I can participate?
Nope you can't,do well to read the whole original post,the OP would only consider sending merits to newbies who have merit worthy post and over 50 activities,you have neither of the above but creating a thread just to show you want to merit individuals can be seen in a negative way as well
In what way exactly,the only wrong use of merit is if it's sold or bought,and neither of the above is happening in here as we all can see4. No merit begging, merit requesting, proposing to buy/trade merits in any way. NO PMs, if you send me a PM proposing any of this I will not consider your application, your post/pm will be made public and reported to Mods.
You could have kept your intentions at heart and just work towards it without creating a thread as to that regards obviously there are some good post that requires merit but creating a thread just to show you want to merit individuals can be seen in a negative way as well
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion or judgment of situations and most definitely, OP doesn't have answer to anyone about this regardless of their opinion on the thread. There are lot newbie posts that are merit-worthy but in most cases are not seen by those who could have given it merit or sometimes seen by higher ranked members who probably have a very high standard of what a merit-worthy post is. However, it is only a of matter time, any user with quality posts will eventually get merits without having to try too hard.Still, In my opinion this is a welcomed idea and I think If so many higher ranked could have a thread like this and somewhat limit it to a specific no of required activities/account age in order to prevent farmers, then newbies wouldn't have to worry much about getting their first merit.

I will consider lowering the activity requirement in the next round if i dont give out the set merits but for this round it will stay at 50+since the lower rank users aren't interest in writing quality posts, the higher rank user who aren't receiving much merits should be considered.
I understand your concern. I took a look at your merit history and saw that many trustworthy and good members have given you merits which means that you are doing a good job otherwise some of them wouldn't have merited you. Just keep it up and more merits will certainly come your way.hello sir please give me one merit...
RULE 44. No merit begging.
Dont beg for merits! I will still take a look at your posts but dont beg for them.
Finally, I saw a very dedicated member with newbie. First, I want to thank your enthusiasm:

hello sir please give me one merit, because my account is very long, i created account on 2011
Merit has nothing to do with account age, but since you've mentioned it: can you prove you were an early adopter, and didn't just hack/buy this old account in 2017?Quote
i dont know how to get the merit. thanks sir
Showing posts in a local language isn't going to help you. And since you're drawing attention to yourself, maybe you can explain why your first post is made in bad Dutch.

And they have no interest in writing quality also. My earlier thread did not got any legit response.
since the lower rank users aren't interest in writing quality posts, the higher rank user who aren't receiving much merits should be considered. The decline in merit circulation & awarding of merits to average posters is affecting some of us. Not everyone can be a good merit analyzer like DdmrDdmr or scam buster like Coolcryptovator or be very unique at replies like LoyceV some of us are just average and should be given some chances to receive merits via the campaigns targeted at lower rank users who aren't corresponding.
Maybe my requirement for the activity level of 50+ is the problem
That's exactly the problem,and it's not because there is a lack of newbies with that activity rank and up, but because from my findings on the forum,most newbies(80%)with 50+ post/activity and no merits are more often than not shitposting one liners,thats just the honest truth and probably the reason why they've not been merited even once despite their lengthy stay in here.A genuine newbie hits/could hit at least 2 to 3 merits in his or her 1st activity period
I doubt most of the meritless 50+ activity noobs would love to take up this giveaway for quality stuff,maybe a change of rules would do
Sorry for posting here as you expect replies from Newbies only. But I'm surprised that there are 0 replies on this topic 5 hours since you started it. And then people complaining that's difficult to get Merits, there is discrimination against Newbies and etc. Now they have great chance to get easy Merit, but seems that nobody whant to get it. Why? Maybe these people who are usually complaining don't have any quality posts to show...

I think that you are not eligible for this "merit giveaway", becouse you would already be a Jr. Member if you had the required activity points (30). Every two weeks you can earn 14 activity points, so just a little bit more time and you will be upgraded to Jr. Member. As far as I see, with your posting history you are on the right way to earn even more merits and to get to higher ranks, so just keep contributing to the forum where you can.

Yeah well that is probably because the Activity requirement is 50+. There will be many more Newbies with a lower Activity like myself that would love to apply for this but 50+ is quite high. I would imagine by the time someones Activity gets to that number, most would have gained enough merit to rank up already. Not sure though, just my opinion. I would have loved to have applied
Maybe my requirement for the activity level of 50+ is the problem. But I intentionally used a higher activity level requirement to try and award Newbies who have been here for some time and maybe have had their posts overlooked in the past.
Why don't you make it the joining date or something then instead of Activity requirement? I'm not sure, just a suggestion
. I'm sure there are plenty of Newbies here that meet your criteria and just haven't came across your post yet.
It's best you advice them to continue contributing positively to the forum definitely they won't be overlooked we has credible merit sources around and also members do give away merit once in a while.
Let's not make merit an obsession but make it something that can be achieved with hard work and patience

I have decided to open this thread in order to help ONLY Newbie and Jr. Members and give them a chance to rank up.
The reason why I am doing this only for Newbie and Jr. Members is that sometimes their posts can be overlooked and they might have a hard time getting those needed merits even though they try hard to make a quality contribution. This doesn't mean this is a merit giveaway thread because it is not. You will have to show me your posts that you think deserve to be merited, I will take a look at the suggested posts and other posts from your profile and decide whether to give you a merit or not.
Read the rules, make sure you understand them! This will be a self-moderated thread, I will remove any off-topic posts or applications from members that dont comply with the rules. I will put aside X Merits that will be given to X different Newbie/Jr. Member accounts - 1 Merit per Account ONLY.
This thread will stay open for 2 days. After that I will lock it and go over the applications.
