1. Create a topic reporting one super obvious phishing site

This is not about report phising site.

They give you merit because you tell others about scam phising site and they think your topic is helpful to avoid scam.

I have a different tough about these steps LOL, you can do this:

Go to WO thread
Makes memes from the current condition of bitcoin.
Post it at WO thread
Profit

Since everyone doesn't really care about the circulation merit on WO Thread, creating memes can be another option if you cant makes a good post/thread to earned merits.

LOL. You're just about as cynical as I am. Members were starting to create their own threads about the anniversary if I'm not mistaken, and they all struck me as merit-grabbing attempts. You kind of have to have been on the forum a while to really be cheerful that it's been around for ten years. I highly doubt Jr. Members care all that much.

I have same feelings and from my raw data in Top-100 merited-artists in the 10th anniversary art contest, I believe there are hundreds of users ranked up within the art contest period, and there are users collected enough merits for their next ranks and only waited for enough activities. Some of them stucked for months/ years since the birthday of merit system, but fastly ranked up with the art contest.

I want to do a topic on "How many Artists collected enough merits to rank up from the Art contest" but I am lack of skills to scrap data. I think data-scraping experts like @LoyceV and @DdmrDdmr can do this.

LoyceV presented data in The future of Bitcointalk: Low Ranking Top Merit earners in the past 30 days. Quickly glance at stats, I saw lots of artists in the list.

No! This is how it should be:

1. Create a super sarcastic topic.
2.
3. Profit.

It will work, see OP.
You've earned it though, because this is what's really happening here in the Beginners' board.
.
There was an alternative method (but this opportunity had ended now):

1. Go to online art template sites
2. Type "Happy 10th Anniversary Bitcointalk"
3. Save and Download.
4. Post it here: 10th anniversary art contest
5. Profit.

Why did you reveal the tips? Roll Eyes

Fucking true with that art contest thread though. It's just a logo-generator spam fest.

Maybe some members got way more merits than were deserved, but I did see some good submissions in that thread that must have taken a bit of work. Anyway, that thread is kind of a one shot deal so I wouldn't worry about it if there were people creating crap just to get merits. I'm absolutely sure that happened, because word spreads when a lot of merits are being given out in a certain spot. It's like heroin users flocking to areas where there's a lot of overdoses because they know the dope is strong. Sad but true.

Do you think the topic belongs to Meta board. If you still think your topic is helpful, you should move it to Beginners & Help.

We're talking about merits. It sure as hell fits better here on the Meta section.

Not always true , Create a topic for that when you have a proof it and it should be in the Scam Accusations

2. Wait for the merits to rake in

Dont expect that you get Merits , sometimes you get not a single one ! Even the post is good in your eyes dosnt mean that others share the same !

Seriously though. I get it, newbies need this information. But we don't need a separate thread for every new phishing site. Just create one sticky thread on the Beginners & Help section concerning phishing sites so we can already be done with it.
