Topic: How do I get merits on a post. - page 3. (Read 487 times)

You don't need a merit OP, this is your second post on this forum and you are already asking for merits, that's not cool, use your time to learn something on the forum, I will like to know why you come on this forum, I wonder why merit earning seem like your first priority right now, if you want to earn merit you have to keep engaging in some good conversations on the forum and if your contribution is solid enough you will earn a merit or some merits.

I can give one link instead of you - [Merit] Share your best posts/threads with Fillippone to be merit assessed

Of course, it's not free and he will have to work hard for Fillippone to appreciate he's posts, but at least there is a chance to get merit.

There is nothing wrong with entering contests like carving a pie or baking pumpkins, or even a drawing contest. The main thing is that the beginner is active and has an incentive to receive merit. After all, it is the merits that will push him to action, which, perhaps, will result in good posts and the birth of a future famous forum user. Would well-known bitcointalks' members appear if they did nothing and only whined that there was no way to get merit? OP understands what he needs to progress, and therefore, has a chance to achieve what he wants. If will be active.

Here is something similar where he can participate with drawing skills, and also earn extra money if have a talent for creating avatars - Whirlwind.money | Avatar Contest | Create avatars and win BTC | Ends May 7th!

OP, if you're observant after reading a number of threads, your merit fishing may be successful. There are several threads on the forum where merit is given away almost "for free", I won't give you links, but I know users who are very cunning in this matter; they literally live and guard such threads.
Examples include baking a pie, carving a pumpkin, creating drawings, discussing SBF-Ross Ulbricht, and answering quizzes, although the latter is more difficult.
Another thing is if you hunt for merit, but you are not a diligent reader, and then the creator of good posts, all your merits will not be worth anything, since your desire to earn extra money (and this is exactly what you obviously want) will become a pipe dream.
Make a choice.

This is a must once a newbie enter here in forum. Newbie must know about the forum before doing anything. And the best of these are



I have a doubt for this like what I said above this Op make me think deeper because his/her first post is all about merits which is a real newbie don't do the same. Maybe he /she is in around for a couple of months or a year but know he created an account and then making this topic.

You don't walk into a world-famous company and ask how to become a General Manager, get a company vehicle, and a six-figure salary.
You are at the beginning of your journey. You are at the bottom of the pyramid. If this is, in fact, your first journey here. Your focus should be on learning how the forum works and what it is that we do here. We discuss and share knowledge about Bitcoin, how to use it, where, how, and why. Once you reach a point where you can take part in such discussions, understand them, and share your own experiences, that's when your merit count will start increasing.   

What do you know about Bitcoin?
Do you own any?
Do you play to buy/earn some?
How do you know about merits (as a new user), and what are you going to use them for?

This comment makes a lot of sense to me, because being useful to other is the only way to get merits here in the forum since merits is not a commodity that is sold in the market place you must have to work to earn otherwise forget about it so long as the forum members did not fine your contributions useful it may be hard to get rewarded with merits.
But once you are useful and share quality information the ops will be good to go, with time the rewards for those contributions will start rolling in.

Op good day and welcome to bitcointalk.org,
No further a do I would say that this topic is already been taken and also already been solved Op no offense but you must use the search button first before you make a topic. Yes, you don't know yet about the forum, but as far as I analyzed your topic it seems that you already know this forum before you created an account because the first topic you made is about merit and most real newbies don't ask that question cause most of a real newbie asks for advice what they gonna do since they are already here in the forum. But anyways about your question about how you get merits then one thing I can say is to stop asking about merit, and focus on your contributions then achievements will follow soon including merits. Since you claimed that you are a newbie here then you must read   rules and regulations here in the forum to avoid any mistakes and lead to a ban. There's a does and don't here in the forum you must be aware for that too. Anyways when you have enough time you can make a research about the topic you want to know and if you can not find then you are freely to ask.

You earn merits base on the quality of what you post on the forum, anyone can decide to merit you or not base on how convinced or being touched they feels about what you have posted, you're not meant to beg for it or solicite for it, we have merit sources available on the forum saddled with the responsibility to do that, if i may advise you, learn to give out first before receiving, learn and have quality things to deliver, merits will come in later, but for now being a newbie, i think you need less to be concerned about merits than what to give or contribute.

Good day pal, to earn merit make sure your quality of your chat is in detailed, make sure that you're going to reply is old post because you can be called as spammer, make sure that your reply in quote is connected to the topic whether your reply is long or short, contribute in this forum and lastly be who you are.

Welcome to this forum and I hope you can help some newbie someday and learn here .

OP, with this being your first thread as a newbie, it's a bit wired, but well, it's easy to see merit on member's profile, I guess, merit is easy to get but doesn't come easily with this kind of thread. This is your first topic, if you want to earn merit, you must be productive in terms of helpful posts and replies to other members in the forum. Learning never ends, even in these forums where knowledge is not determined by the rank of members. Although there are also a lot of high-ranking memebers that are very knowledgeable about technology, Bitcoin technology, economics, politics, and other important stuff, perhaps if you are able to post with quality and any memeber or merit source finds your post helpful to them or other memebers in the forum, you can receive merit.

At this point, OP, merit should not be your priority; this thread is far beyond mere curiosity; it seems like you have other hidden intentions. But what ever, well, every one here was once a newbie, with a few having gabs as their thread. As a newbie, I suggest you should be asking questions like, "How can I find my way around the forum?" Start by reading those thread suggestions from @tranthidung.

You can also report some good merit worthy post to merit  source for you to receive merit but before then, you need to have quality post before you apply.
