Today is the first day I read about this merit system, and I feel bit ashamed. Many members have roughly 1:1 ratio, and some even has 1:2, but mine is 61:0, that says my writing has been so poor. When I read at many places that the merit system is to distinguish shit posters from real members, I felt so bad.
I registered here around 3~4 months back, and never participated a bounty campaign (as a trial, I'm trying one now, but even that I don't expect to receive bounty because I didn't follow the full process, but did it to understand how to do it, e.g., putting a signature etc.). First I came here (bitcointalk) to study various issues and understand about the crypto projects, but when I saw we need to have some posts to get to higher ranks, I posted some simple answers (while reading about the projects, news, etc.), never scams though, but probably some of them would already have been answered as sometimes I answered in around 10+, 20+ pages.
I read all the comments here in 4 pages, and decided myself I'll never write just because I want a post as an activity, but when I feel my answer would be worth to someone. .
I also feel some of my answers would have been good (maybe not many people interested reading them around 10th+, 20th+ pages) Having said all of these, I still cannot figure out what would be a "quality" answer to earn a merit, so can someone who already earned merits show me a example where they received a merit (i.e., both the question, and your own answer), then I can probably understand how a quality answer should be constructed.
If there is a way I can go back and delete my answers (activity), I would do. I really feel bit shamed to incline towards shit posters. Anyway, this is a good lesson, and you will see only good answers from me now onwards. Please share your own experience me to judge how to make quality answers.
Topic: How to earn merits easily ? - page 6. (Read 1856 times)
There is no easy way to earn merit . All those saying post quality post ( yes that can earn you merit) but ask your self if you are even making sense, will they give you merit for free ? It is impossible to get free merit from somebody ,something that is valuable, just like Ether or Ripple. So focus on writing quality post and stay as member rank forever.
We should not focus on getting merits, rather focus on what's this forum require us to do, and that is to give valuable inputs to topics that really matters, because merit is just a bonus for our post that provides good idea to readers. Make quality post and you will receive the merit you deserve.
As I understand, there's no such thing gets easily on here, we must work for it,merit system is one way of hazing the beginners either we stay or quit because of this difficulties. but referring the advise of the legendary, we just post a quality idea and avoid posting nonsense to acquire that merit.

There is no best way. There is only one way and that way is improve the quality of you post. Quality does not mean volume but value added to the point under discussion. with new bct update to become a full member need 100 merits and i still have only 10 merits. What is the best way to earn merits
Make sure the post you created have a good quality, I mean when you create a thread or comment on a thread it should provide clear information and understandable. So the people who don't know the latest information or who don't know the world of cryptocurrency can understand it easily and clearly.

You have 10 merit points by default and you gained 4 merit points to make a total of 14 merit points. Just review the 4 posts of yours which got merit and try to post in the same way as you did for that 4 posts. It may take a lot of time but eventually it will give you 100 merit points.
The problem is that people will not be motivated to give smerits to good quality posts because they rather choose to keep them as commodity. Would you give your last merits, when you need badly to receive some in return?
This system would work better imo if when you gave merits, you received a bit back, lets say 0.5 or 0.1 out of 1 merit given away.
I don't think you understand the Merit system, merits are not a commodity. I have sMerit to give away, and there is no advantage to me to keep them. It doesn't affect my merit total either way. Giving merit in the expectation that you will receive merit in return is against the rules, and can earn you negative trust, or being added to my merit abusers gallery.
If you receive two merits, then you are deemed to be a worthy member of Bitcoin Talk, and you are given an sMerit, you can award this to a poster that you consider to be contributing to the Bitcoin Talk community. Please don't abuse this privilege,

Its very simple,post some good quality posts then it will earn you some merits. 
That is the only way you can get or earn merit.If you are getting the merits in some other ways means you are abusing the system and you will get tagged by DT.

Edit. It can be called a commodity, in a context, because has value. I would have made it this way: not linked to forum rank. Imo, smerit should be like a thank you, have no trace, no criteria, no stain and no self gratification and especially no pride.
Either way. Who cares? Let's see how the changes bring positive thoughts around.
The best way to earn merits is to ignore merits. Just be a useful contributing member of the forum.
As I posted elsewhere - Merits are like cats, it you chase them they will run away from you, if you ignore them, but behave in a generally friendly fashion, they will come to you.

This is really sad but true. Pursuing a merit can be a very stressful thing. Better ignore this merits and try to contribute as much as possible. Can help at least 1 person in this forum is better than making shit-post.

This merits system is easy to identify a scam users. So you should post clearly and quality of exact need is the best way to increase your post. Because someone like your post they give merits. But it is not simple get so try to activate in this forum else you don't get merits. with new bct update to become a full member need 100 merits and i still have only 10 merits.

The merit system is made if you are qualified to rank up and to avoid those shit poster, account buyer, scam and etc. When the forum updated many users are disagree because the rank up will become to hard for now. But it is made to improve the forum that we need to work hard.

When I first saw the new update on bTC regarding merits, i just told myself to go on with wjat i do. But when a friend of mine rold me that i needed 10 merits to be a member, I was alrmed, really alarmed. So i ask a member of the forum on tips how to get merits and read forums regarding merits. That, i needed to make quality posts so i can be awarded with some merits. Just a thought, what if i thought i posted a quality one but the moderators doesn't count it as one?? I guess i just needed to continue my posts and response hoping that i made one quality post. ● ⚫ GIFcoin.io ⚫ ●

The simplest thing you can do is make content that people are actually interested in and it worth someone rewarding you for your efforts. This kind of thread won't earn you anything in most situations (unless someone wants to be a contrarian for my post here), if you're making a giant database and keeping it uploaded with information people actually want to see then you can be rewarded for your efforts. This goes for the various loan/scam list threads that people make, among other things. There's a lot you can actually do, it just comes down to quality. A thread OP with a quality piece of information or something people agree with will likely receive merits, and likely a number of them, since a lot of people will see it.TL;DR Make good content and start good threads with stuff people actually want to know.
Everyone already explained so many things that how you can earn merit. I am saying what I thought about how you can get merit. Don't think about merit, just do quality post, constructive post and do research before posting... Means what are you going to post in the forum think about it that if it's contributing in forum or not... If it's not contributing in the forum means your post is a shitpost and it's useless... And if your post is contributing in forum and its on topic then you are good... People automatically give you merit for your contributions...
In the one statement I can say
the more you learn the more your post quality will constructive
And the more your post quality the more you get merit

To earn merit you should try harder to construct a quality one. I suggest tht you find a thread where someone is asking a question then give your most helpful answer, it would also count if you were the first one to answer the query. If the person finds your answer helpful then merit is sure to be given to you.
Actually even after making such quality posts many are still not getting merit, it is because they post in a thread that has lot's of replies or a topic that is not important to waste time in reading. The best way to earn merits is by choosing a good topic, something that you think people will be interested to read, of course having a good quality post is really important, another is don't reply to a thread that has hundreds of post, you are just wasting your effort on that.
