lol shill mate i personally wont lie if i say that yes we want the free coins lmao and yes we need to post +10 posts a week . its obvious that we may join a discussion to
only accomplish our bounty but sometimes we do really post cuz we want to help ppl or to discuss something or to motivate ppl to be better not just cuz we are doing a bounty
knowing that posting in help section wont help in our bounty since it does not count
so good luck with your bounty and mine as well and i hope that they will pay off
After 3 years of operation in bitcoin mining I have accumulated many experiences and knowledge. In my spare time, I usually participate in the new area, hoping to help many people and get the first Merit.
hey there to all the newcomers newbie and jr members i know how hyped we are about gaining merit and ranking up so fast 
lol am hyped as well and supper happy that i got my first merit
lol am hyped as well and supper happy that i got my first merit So why are you so "hyped" to "rank up fast"? Seriously, what's your end game for this?
A lot of new people act like this forum is a game and earning merit is scoring points to reach the next level. Why are so eager to rank up?
. You're a Jr. Member, you've reached the minimum level to participate in a signature campaign (same with the original poster). If this is such a major goal for you - why haven't you joined a campaign?
I did say that signature campaign is my major goal. I said that a lot of newbies come here because of that. And maybe you didn't remark, but I'm practicing a signature campaign.
I'm a studying in school now, so find a job is a big problem in my city especially for students. This forum give me a chance to tern a penny and gain knowledge about the crypto-industry. Is it bad?
And will earning "a penny" really help you pay the bills you have while studying at University (I assume)? The time you spend on here could be spent doing a job that pays you more per hour and you can use that money to pay your bills or buy Bitcoin.
Sorry me, maybe I be bad in english, but whether "school" and "university" are synonymous? Really, man? Did you read my post? I'm high school student, so I haven't any bills. I agree that in normal job I can earn more, and, wow, you can see that I wrote in my post "find a job is a big problem in my city especially for students". So, okay it's not very important. I spend time here, because it interesting for me. I have free time, so why not?
Seeing Jr Members talk about how quickly they want to rank up takes away from any intent they have to honestly learn and contribute to this forum.
Yeah, this is true. But I think, i'm I'm not among them, because I trying to be helpful, by answer for questions, discuss something. As I know, this doesn't affect the forum badly.

Congratulations you get your first merit. You also know how to get merit and you show it on your thread post. Keep doing good things and you will get more. Welcome to Bitcointalk. Good luck!
Some times getting merit is hard to get yo need to push it until you get it probelly you need a very constructive post and very usefull in each treand
Congrats you have your first merit
Congrats you have your first merit
Congratulations on your first merit, I wish you many more in future. Also , make sure that you spend your smerits wisely on quality posts only when they start showing in your profile.
didnt manage to get my first merit yet. but anyway, i did up an infographic to teach fellow newbies here how to get into the blockchain game.
First merit is special , I am yet to get it. I think that as a member gets experienced on this forum, there is more probability for him to get merits. This is because post quality is imporved because of more knowledge.
Of course ... but sometimes because a lot of jr.member members are already using the signature, some senior members seem to stay away from us, even though our post is very good ....
But also many senior members who appreciate our work if it's really original and something new, so all we have to do is keep trying ...

I just reviewed your post history. None of your posts are “very good”. You contribute to a lot of speculative topics that don’t really contribute to the overall betterment of bitcoin or these forums.
Just because you spew a bunch of opinions in clear English doesn’t make the post a good one.
That’s why you’re not receiving merits for your posts. Because you’re spewing the same bullshit as everyone else is within the megathreads that you post in. Nobody will give you merit for those posts, as the types of people that merit others don’t visit topics such as the ones you post in.
“...so all we have to do is keep trying...”
Nope. Please don’t, as you are just contributing to spam. Try to partake in healthier conversations, not just speculative ones that don’t mean anything at the end of the day...
thanks a lot for reviewing my profile and my last post sir, before you reviewing my post, at least no one has reviewing my post, so i was dont kwon what im doing is good or not.
i will try to become better after this,and i will learn much more then yesterday, and if I've tried it later, can you review to my post again? if you can then i will be very happy ...

I agree with these comments. I think, regardless of anybody's newbie status, the important point here is to contribute and not to spam. Here are few guidelines which I hope will be helpful for any newbie (including me):
1) Don't get excited just because Bitcoin Price is up and down!
2) Spend some decent time to understand and learn about blockchain - you don't need to be a developer to understand blockchain technology. It is just the same thing like we had "internet" before.
3) Surely they are too many scammers and spammers out there who are corrupting this forum - always try to be helpful - see how you can add more value to any topic. A kind of fresh perspective view.
4) You are more than welcome to post and add value but as a newbie first, spend some serious good time and see posts from Hero/Legendary members and understand how they are adding value to the forum
To be honest, the list goes on and on.... In a nutshell - if you really want to get promoted with badges - the secret for it just simply forget the race of getting higher badges and always try to add a value rather than increasing your number of posts. You will see everybody within the community will regard you
Hope this helps!

I feel very proud when I get the first merit(I've felt what you feel), but the fact is very difficult to get it again, even when you use all criteria that you share u will never got it, it is because other people don't like / agree with your post.
But because of this I also become more motivated to make something useful and others like it, so let's work hard to achieve what we expect.

dont forget that there are smerit source and they have smerit every certain time + the smerit is useless if u hold it that mean those sources will follow the 3 main criteria
to merit ppl so just keep up the positive work and who know maybe a source will check your profile and like how helpful you are and merit you

It depends on what you posted. Maybe you gave an answer to someones question.

That's cool! My congrats! I have got 2 merits for this moments. I saw topic where guy give merit for writing info about Lightning Network. Lucky me! So, now I going to write a topic about one new thing. I like to write informative topic about something new. As I think it's will be useful for newbies and other people who interested in it. Will see how it do.

Good to hear it is achievable without chasing for it, keeps me motivated as well, I will continue providing the best I can.

Exactly. People shouldn't chase merits, they must simply behave properly and positively contribute to the wellfare of the community.
You got you first merit and you are surprised by it, while others (higher rank than you!) complain and whine about the merit system being unfair and difficult. Keep up the good work and you shall see more merits soon.

Wow, congrats!! I am also trying to help people but still, I don't get any merit. 
Hope in near future I will also get.

I think providing new information or a new way of looking at something is the most important thing you can do. This forum is full of people trying to spam posts and regurgitate information found either on another website or even in the same thread. Even if it's just ASKING A QUESTION you don't know the answer to, your post has the possibility to create a discussion on that topic and adds something to the community that may not already be here. You don't need to know all the answers, you don't need to answer all the questions, you just need to not be a shillbot begging for merit while remaining active.
hey there to all the newcomers newbie and jr members i know how hyped we are about gaining merit and ranking up so fast lol am hyped as well and supper happy that i got my first merit
