As much as it seems that your intentions are good and that you are trying to help others, continuing with such topics may end up on the ignore list for many. When you want to help others, you do not say, “I am a good person, I help others.” And if the spirits are not enough for you, then apply to become a merit source.
Trying to get into the good book of others by showing your good intention and willingness to help others, or how you intend to help other in public will surely leads to abuse of that good will intention and the merits by merits hunters.

Said, there is no point in coming out openly to declares your merits scarcity rather it more acceptable to contribute your quarter to forum discussions that will help other forum member that way, tou earn some merits and you can help from there silently without needing to make a public announcement about that, because doing otherwise as a none merits source could become the sure and fastest way to end in some members ignore list because members of the forum are highly skeptical in dealing with issues of pronounced or proclaimed trust good will and intention promises, rather we respect good actions, steps and approach to things and also just as you @tread93 is not a merits source, it will be hard to be able to render that level of merits help you desire to others, unless you become a merits source some days, but for now, that desired will suffer a lot of frustration unless he makes an application to become a merits source in the future that way he can be as generous like
You may be okay and it's the holidays.
So be generous with the merits given to you.
Happy birthdays man, and enjoy the season, indeed the ops have some interesting posts to read through, sure he will get enough merits to keep circulating, if he continues to be of positive vibes to discussions in here, it the season of love and gifting anyways and we all in the mood of sharing, but doing so with the right frame of mind in other not to mess things up.
