1 merit for you, and there you go: Inspirational stories from self-made promoted users
Very good job op.
I see you are already in a nice payment BTC campaign.
Let me ask you. Do you still do bounties? Do you think are they worth?
I never joined a bounty, never tried. But I heard some of them pay very well.

Nice job OP
One more thing you can do is to merit those who are in need, if you have a few spandable merits...
It's really not easy to rank up, because of the merit system, you have already experienced it, so help the others who deserve it to rank up too...
Keep up the good work and aim for the next rank

Sometimes when I think on the merit system what I feel is Theymos really did a very awesome work by introducing merit system. It is like a cycle once one gets a merit and after sometime he/she gets upgraded to Jr.Member you get some privileges. These privilege of having a signature. The appreciation(merit) from the community for sharing something valuable encourages you to get more merits. More merits leads to rank up and more privileges.
And as all of us know getting merits is equal to getting knowledge. This community emotional motivates individuals to educate themselves more and more. This is my I said it was a awesome work done by Theymos. There may be many more on Bitcointalk who started reading because of merits.
I do remember the day when I got my first merit.

Probably took you longer than it should, but hey, at least you ended up learning your lesson in the end. Good job.
What most complainers don't realize is that if you're actually really interested in this technology and invested a reasonable amount of time to study, you don't even need to try so hard to earn merits. If you know enough to contribute to conversations and to help out some of the newbs with their questions, then the merits should come naturally.

This is not the first and I believe not the last one a forum member gives their story of ranking up.
Well, it is certainly possible to do it, just take some hard work and time if you're really serious about it. Some will need more time, some will rank up fast, but that's what merit is made for. It pushes you to produce a better post if you want to rank up, which means it will take some time if you never do something like that. But it's certainly possible.

Well done, OP. From now on, you will be able to entertain with your avatar, but it seems that you got stucked temporarily with your campaign, that requires wearing avatar as prerequisite. Just kidding, I understood your feeling now. Being able to wear avatar is a big fun in the forum (at least, I think so). It makes user a little different each other. With self-made users like you, avatars show your quality and your contribution in the forum. It is not a coincidence from which you have gone a far journey, so far. You actually put decent efforts to get that right.
At the beginning of the merit system, I thought I will be stucked with the member rank. But later, I started to contribute to the community, mostly I tried to prevent scam and alert people, about the shitcoins around and started to get merit.
Now I think within next two months, I will achieve the rank as well.
It's possible to achieve any rank if you spend time reading, learning. Anyway, that's a great motove towards my full member rank.

A short story of how an airdrop hunter, bounty hunter, spammer, and shitposter turned into a better forum (full senior hero) member.
I only created this account before to join all airdrops I can see then, after a while, I became a bounty hunter. All things were good for me back then until the new (ranking) system was introduced. I was airdropped 10 merits and it really took me a while before I got used to the new system.
Why it took me a while?
What changes I made?
My suggestion to newbies and fellow hunters:
You can do the same thing as I did. You can continue to become a bounty hunter and still contribute to the forum. Do not be discouraged by the notion that hunters are spammers, use it as a fuel to improve instead.
Thank you to all who have contributed directly or indirectly to this achievement.

Why it took me a while?
- Post and run - I only posted here to meet weekly quota. This is the usual attitude of bounty hunters.
- Complain - When the merit system was introduced, I also complained about the difficulty of getting merit just like most bounty hunters.
What changes I made?
- Became a reader - I started reading many posts in forum, not just in sections where I usually post. Everyday, I learn something new which helps me improve my posts. You may not believe it but after months of being in the forum, I don't even know who Theymos was before. I thought he was some twitter influencer or something.
- Took advantage of the merit system - Instead of complaining, I realized I won't go anywhere if I just complain about it. Before I comment, I try to check first if my reply will be helpful. I also tried to engage in discussions rather than just leaving one comment

In addition to the suggestions I said in the OP, help build or improve your local board. Don't hesitate to ask some questions especially on topics you want more clarity. Respond to topics with the aim of learning or imparting new knowledge.
Some may argue that being active in local board does not guarantee that you will get merits and I completely agree. Some doesn't even have an active merit source but with consistent efforts to build or improve your board, I believe you'll get rewarded eventually.

My another suggestion to all newbie/beginner/lower rank members who are still struggling is to Set A Goal.
I was once asked the same question when I ranked up to full member and I still remember that up to this day.
Please take advantage also of the forum features and tools made by community members to help you in discussions.

Now, what is your next goal? If you do not have a goal you will remain at that level for a long time.
He's right. Everyone should take that as a challenge.Please take advantage also of the forum features and tools made by community members to help you in discussions.
