If it was possible, people would've already done it a lot knowing how desperate a lot of users are with concerning to receiving merits.

Exactly  but one funny thing is that you can't  merit yourself if you haven't worked hard to earn any merit,
Hence we must work to earn this merit and I was just curious seeing this option  and I never dared to merit myself and that was why I had to throw the question  to the house.

Partly right — not 100% entirely true because of the earlier bounty campaigners having the free merit airdrops. There are a few Legendary members without a single received merit outside of the airdrop and all they do is just spam bounty campaign threads.

I recently noticed the possibility of clicking  on merit on a post made by myself  and I was curious to know if its possible for one to merit himself?

I haven't  seen any rule kicking  against this and since the feature is there, i want to know if its possible  to merit my post by myself and if anyone else has ever thought of this?

I really enjoy being on the forum and it seems every passing day, I'm learning  something new and please pardon me if my question doesn't seem worth it but I do really want to as there are post I feel are worth meriting but got  no merit.
This experiment would have been so beautiful if you completed it yourself vefore coming here to ask.
Why were you afraid of completing the task you started?
You would have tried sending the merit to yourself and see if it goes through. And if it does you would now open this thread to ask if it is an offense, if it doesn't go through, you would have known that you cannot send merir to yourself and that will be all and there won't be need for this thread.

It doesn't really make sense that you started an experiment and you could not even complete it. Then you came and created a thread for it. Develop that think skin and do things without fears hence you are not cheating the forum. That would be great.

Then it will not serve the purpose of merits you will just merit yourself to rank up

It doesn't have to have a rule, common sense tells us it's not right, I don't think others will think of this idea, you are just one imaginative guy to think this.

You're not alone so many of us do but it will not make us create a funny and useless post like this because we're not getting merits, just keep doing what you love doing and keep on improving, merits will come unexpectedly.

From the word itself (Merit) and we all know that merit is like a gift that another people know that you are worthy to be given then they will give you a reward and here in forum the Reward is Merits. Also to make it fashionable then we are not allowed to send our merits in our own post because the reason of it will abuse. And even not worthy post then we will sent a merit in order to receive a few one and that's crazy I think.
So merits is designed as a give to everyone except to ourselves in order to give dedication and motivation. And to measure the quality of our post.

Basically Merit on this forum is designed to reward users who have made useful and quality contributions to the forum. However, users cannot give sMerit to themselves, but must be given by other users as a form of appreciation for the contribution they have made, because I think it will be funny later if I give sMerit to myself.

In this case, Merit also helps to increase the reputation and ranking of the account in the forum, so that it becomes more known and respected in the forum. In this way, the Merit system not only motivates users to create more useful posts, but also helps create more productive and positive discussions in the forums.

You cannot send merit to yourself that's the rule and they will not let you do this, but if there is a possibility to send merit to yourself, this is going to be unethical, its self-serving and take away the purpose of why merit is created, even giving merit to your alt account will get you negative feedback.
Let others appreciate your work, you only know how good you are if others will give you merit.

It did occur to me several times in the past and I didn't even try clicking on the 'Merit' feature.

I think a line of simple coding would simply disable the Merit on every user's respective posts.

People's assessment of a good post that falls within their standards that allow them to send merits is different. You already understand this.
If you feel that some posts are good and worthy of a merit, you can report them in any of the available threads and so far I've seen some of those threads being very helpful to users who make disinvited entries.

If it is possible to send merits to the user's profile itself, then what will happen is that most of the time users who have sMerit will do it every day.
I understand what you're thinking because I and other friends have had that thought.
Keep your spirits up because soon you will reach the destination of FM to Sr. Member. That seems to be what you are trying to do.
Every once in a while, think about how someone strives to reach a desired stage such as from Hero to Legendary which requires 500 merit.

I'm not sure if this is common sense as there are alot of things that seems common in the forum but I'm sorry to say but you might just end up earning  a red trust.
I think it is whose gonna think that meriting himself is allowed obviously its not right? Plus reading the topic on merits could let you understand how the merit works and youll realize that doing merit on himself wouldnt never be allow here. Thats why I suggested maybe a removal of merit post on someones view page might do the trick.
even if it is allowed in the forum to merit oneself. How can someone feel secure and deserving of his post's merits when he is well aware that merits are issued for excellent posts or comments and that each account's merit history is visible to all forum members to go through at any given time. It will appear as though Mr. A merits himself on this post. Just that one action may prompt others to start keeping an eye on Mr. A's account.

Not possible.

I was not in this forum when the merit system got introduced, but with common logic, I think I have come to understand that self-meriting doesn't complete the merit cycle system because merit is supposed to go from one member to another as long as they have quality posts.

Probably a lot of people have tried it and have seen that it's not possible, so they don't bother asking or coming up with some stupid suggestion for the feature to be allowed. I have seen that my posts has the merit icon beside it, but I don't bother to even click it because, in a normal sense, I think it is not right to self-merit myself while there are some members' posts I need to appreciate with my Smerit.

You don't need to worry about this; some posts don't get merited as soon as possible; it can take some months or weeks, but if any member finds your comments meritorious or helpful to them, you will receive merit on the comments.

Has anyone suggested to theymos to remove the merit text on yourself when viewing a post.
~snip~

It is possible that this question was asked at the beginning when the merit system was added to the forum, but considering that this option cannot be abused, it does not make much sense for it to be on the admin's priority list. There are probably some other things that confuse some members of the forum, but we hope that it will all be much better one day when we have a new forum.



Exactly  but one funny thing is that you can't  merit yourself if you haven't worked hard to earn any merit,
Hence we must work to earn this merit and I was just curious seeing this option  and I never dared to merit myself and that was why I had to throw the question  to the house.

The expression "work" in the context of the forum is not something we want to read because it implies that someone is here only to earn something, and not for what the forum exists for, discussions and exchange of opinions. Some "work" a lot, and yet the results are missing, so the key is still in something else, and everyone has to discover that for themselves.

If not now I saw the thread,I don't even know maybe I have notice that selfmerit button but if possible I think i noticed it,believe me I may have try that to see the result.and if possible someone can merit itself many members could have merited their selves, with this rate at which many  members are desperate to earn merit.

In normal senses, if post are to be judge by other forum members to be merited for the quality.that should be clear to everyone that it is not possible to send merit to ourself because we can't judge ourself post accurately. So op it is not possible to merit our post.

Will not work you can click the merit button but you can't actually send merit to yourself, and it would not make sense to merit yourself. If you are the one that is going to judge your post quality that's not going to be fair.

When receiving merits you also receive half of it that you can send to other members, so that could be a big problem as well if it's allowed since most of the members can easily abuse that not to mention sending merit can be abuse as well, since some members might have multiple accounts here in the forum.

You see the option however you cannot send merit to yourself. Instead of writing this post, and overthinking, maybe you should have just tried clicking it once.
How come you are a full member and not aware of this? Mind-boggling.

What will be the use of merit if you can send it to yourself lol.
Lol
I've always thought of meriting myself but in the long run I never dared to try meriting myself because I didn't want to fail any law ignorantly.


But this is common sense already when you read everything about merit topic.

"You cannot send merit to yourself"

This is the prompt you get if you try to merit yourself. Whilst the option is there, it's impossible to send merit to your own profile.
Thank you so much for this answer and I love people who sincerely  try to help answer people rather than assume and what is the need of me asking  the question here if I knew what to do?
Thank you mate for your kind response.


Lol, obviously creating this post just to catch a cruise, even as a newbie I know very well that it's not possible to selfmerit your post.

For real?
I Never created this post to catch any fun or cruise what so ever.
I was curious and wanted to know it's possibility and I wasn't ready to put  my account to any sort of risk especially  not for merits.

In the past, when I first got to know the merit system, I even thought about this. But I quickly realized that sending sMerit to myself was clearly not going to work. because in the end the sMerit award is sent to us because the sender really feels our post is useful and deserves to be given Merit. And those who generally provide judgment about our posts (writers) are other people (readers). And of course this Merit system, in addition to increasing Rank, also has the goal of increasing our motivation to further improve the quality of posts so that they are more useful for every reader. So that the Merit system is also like a determinant of our eligibility to rise to a higher rank.

Fortunately this is something that anyone would immediately know that people would try to exploit — so of course it wouldn't be made possible by Theymos(or whoever the dev is).

No self-meriting is not possible here in the forum. If it was, so many users would have been abusing it and that would also defeat the reason why the merit system was introduced in the first place.
