I totally disagree with the OP. Why?
Bunches of replies don't mean that threads or topics under construction are constructive, and high qualitied.
If such a foolish rule implemented, it might cause automatic bumps from bots, account farmers, and massive shits how's to get merits. It might definitely distort the original purposes of merit system.
I believe @Theymos and most of forum members will disagree with your proposal.



Merit system and new rank requirements related to the system have made a real evolution for the forum.
Your proposal might lead to de-evolutionary movements, and give spammers perfect opportunity to rank up.  Huh

1. If your new message has written 20 pages of reviews and answers - 5 merits.

According to your fabulous idea this great well written post full of enlightenment should receive 5 merits as it has more than 30 pages of replies!
 
Everyone's standard of living is different。Are you satisfied with your current living standard?

With more than 670 replies, this post worth 5 merits for sure!

This past few months i dont know why but its hard for me to get sleep Sad any suggestion or opinion that would help me to got better sleep at night . Huh my regular sleep 4-5am Sad

With more than 100 pages of replies this poster should receive 20 merits which was names as Do you smoke weed!!

At least it's no longer seen as a criminal hard drug in many western countries and it go forward every day with legalizing and new informations.
So do you smoke weed? How long and how much?
How do you think your consume is taking a part in your daily life?


BTW As the last quoted post suggests Do you smoke weed and then post these?

I am little bit confused how I answer your question. Just I want to say this is the most garbage idea ever I have seen. You are use unnecessary color on your post.

I have a suggestion I'd like to discuss:

It's was necessary to use red color ? About your idea , it's clearly indicate for spaming. There is no change to get merit from forum system. Only way to get merit from user. So if you make this kind of garbage post, who will merited you ? Nobody I guess. You are talking about make spammy forum. But reality is merit system was implement to prevent spam. Let's see what say theymos:

I'm hoping that this system will increase post quality by:
 - Forcing people to post high-quality stuff in order to rank up. If you just post garbage, you will never get even 1 merit point, and you will therefore never be able to put links in your signature, etc.

Look like you are much angry with merit system. But I believe merit system working fine. If your idea implement than people's will start buy reply. Already many marketplace you will find offer, like fiverr. I was post about that. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/spammer-selling-comment-reply-through-fiverr-spamming-on-ann-thread-4651326
So better forget it and lock your thread to avoid further spam. I can see you are a spam yourself. Just your this post quality indicates how is your  other post quality. I never need to read your profile & I put you my ignore list.

Avoid other new idea, just try to make some quality post & try to help forum by some helpful post.

You are not helping the forum to change to a better one. You are likely tolerating the number of users who had gone into shitposting. You are just promoting on how to make tons of shitpost rather than having a few posts with quality.  Huh
Exactly.
In my opinion threads like this prove that the merit system is working fine as it is. One or two tweaks (at least 1 merit to receive Jr. Member rank e.g.) would be nice, though.

1. If your new message has written 20 pages of reviews and answers - 5 merits.
2. If Your topic received 30 pages of feedback and answers - 5 more merits.
3. If your topic received 50 pages of feedback and answers - 10 more merits.

Well, further in the same spirit. I understand that the offer is fabulous but I think it will also help from the influx of stupid questions.
But then there is the view that topics should not be posted in all sections because section altcoins every second will achieve the rank of member for 2 weeks.

There will be 2 scenario if we apply this (or maybe more),
1. Lets say "User A" create a topic and want to earn merit, so he create a lot of account and reply on his own thread to earn merit.
2. He can try to start bounty and pay user to reply his thread. So, he can earn merit.

I maybe wrong, but from what i see from thread that have a lot pages, some of them are reply the same answer again and again (well, not all thread) and some of user probably doing copy-paste or plagiarism. So, this is not good idea, sorry.

Totally agree.
I am curious about the title of the thread: "Improve the quality of new topics"
OP, do you think that the quality of a thread can even be measurable by the number of answers received?
Because one of the biggest problems in the forum is precisely the quantity > quality.

Really? A merit system for incentivizing your thread on being a megathread? I don't think so you are technically promoting more spam to happen in the forum. With your proposed "improvements" if I want to earn merits the easy way then I would resort on creating topics with general questions like "Is Bitcoin the new Gold?", "Why Banks are Scared of Bitcoin?", "Is Bitcoin the Future of Currency?", or "Is Bitcoin Illegal?" topic questions like this can generate me a lot of merits in no time especially when this topics are posted in the Bitcoin Discussion section as they can easily be answered by a lot of people and all of them will have a generic or similar answer. Just remember the basics, merits are earned by creating high quality post not by receiving tons of replies from the thread you created, quantity does not mean quality.

This will help improve and reduce the amount of garbage in new topics.
And it will increase the amount of garbage reply or comment in that thread.

1. If your new message has written 20 pages of reviews and answers - 5 merits.
2. If Your topic received 30 pages of feedback and answers - 5 more merits.
3. If your topic received 50 pages of feedback and answers - 10 more merits.

Now the forum changed the system of raising the rank of the user and we all want to spam on the forum was smaller.
The merit system isn't the problem.  The problem is incoherent sentences like the above.  If you're wondering why you haven't earned any merits yet, this is the reason.  There are so many members here and so many posts (mostly garbage), and if what you write doesn't stand out from the rest of the shit, nobody is going to merit your posts--and certainly if someone with sMerits to give can't understand what the hell you wrote, forget about it.

The system is working just fine.  I don't support your suggestion, OP.  It would be very much open to abuse by armies of alt accounts, and believe me, shitposting account farmers would exploit anything they could.
