dogs are cute.

I don't think it matters anyways. There's no use to merits other than you sharing it to others. I'd honestly just tell you to post where you feel comfortable with, don't worry about merit, you're doing just fine even without it.

As someone who doesn't receive merit alot, it doesn't affect me at all, so just you do you fam.

I think I use some of the threads and posts as an alternative bit of social interaction. Sometimes I spend quite long hours on the computer, and it makes a nice break. ~snip~ Knights Templar, and their subsequent evolution into controlling the EU and the UK amongst other countries. It's quite difficult to introduce that into a social conversation ~snip~

I've made some random topics round here in the past (most on serious and ivory) - I remebmer a few chemistry topics and one on wind speeds.

I'm the same with the TV thing, I don't really unserstand leaving it on in the background but I know a lot of poeple do.

You're better off mading spontaneous topics and just leaving them where they are - even if theyre' not of interest now someone will probably comment something at some point.

There are no rules outside of the mining boards against making topics that are of a similar nation (but aren'tt he same in a material aspect).

Also on the antipharma aspect, I think a lot of drugs are overprescribed or cause other problems. I saw a ted talk on statins a while back that looked interesting but didn't look further into it, also knowing people from a clinical psychology background it seems some conditions are over diagnosed (but I wouldn't want to comment much on that because most are meant to be on medication - it's a slim majority though who get an accurate diagnosis).

Maybe I will just slip in a few Knights Templar and the origins of Unicorns threads on the way.

Do whatever feels right to you, Jet Cash--I always enjoy reading your posts regardless of what they're about.

And yeah, I've slowed down a lot on the merit-earning myself, but I don't care one whit. If there was a rank above Legendary that I could be striving for, then I might be more interested in earning them but there isn't. Nor am I trying to compete with anyone else with respect to merits. In fact, I'd prefer someone give a lower-ranked member some merits instead of me if it came down to a choice between the two.

I for one do agree with a lot of your personal points of view concerning the Covid hype. It's just that I don't see any reason why I would come to the Bitcointalk forum to discuss other stuff except for crypto stuff.

All of that stuff--COVID-19, the upcoming US election, and everything aside from bitcoin or altcoins should be relegated to the Off-Topic and P&S sections. I don't post in Ivory Tower or Serious Discussion, because the crypto discussions there are usually over my head and everything else is non-crypto stuff that I don't care to share my opinions about.

I think I use some of the threads and posts as an alternative bit of social interaction. Sometimes I spend quite long hours on the computer, and it makes a nice break. Often if I visit people, they seem to have the TV on all the time, and it isn't very often that there is anything interesting on there. Then I might get involved in researching things like the Knights Templar, and their subsequent evolution into controlling the EU and the UK amongst other countries. It's quite difficult to introduce that into a social conversation, as most people don't seem to go much further than talking about Trump's hairstyle or similar topics of world shattering importance. They also seem to be more concerned with the colour and decoration of their face masks, rather than their efficacy.

I for one do agree with a lot of your personal points of view concerning the Covid hype. It's just that I don't see any reason why I would come to the Bitcointalk forum to discuss other stuff except for crypto stuff. I see the Serious and Ivory boards also as boards where crypto stuff can be debated with people who at least try to read the whole thread and do not spam or post one-liners. It's why I post my judicial topics in there, otherwise they are spammed to off-topicness within hours. I do not see these boards as "Off-Topic for high leveled members" and I think some of the subjects you post about in Serious and Ivory are imho off-topic. Do not be offended plz, because "off-topic" is in no way synonymous of "low-quality", and I'd never claim for a second that your posts are of low quality. It's just that they are not about crypto directly (but maybe they are indirectly).

Anyway, congratz with your impressive Merit level - and if you're in lack of love with 2000+ Merits, then how do I (and others) have to feel about having "only" 400+ Merit? Cool

. I'm quite sure that you're getting all the love you need. Wink

Let people disagree with you from time to time. You won't be receiving Merits for certain points of view, but at least you'll keep the debating flame burning, and that's what this forum is all about.

I think quite a lot came from my fit to talk and other projects,and I became a bit disenchanted with those. The blogs and forums were getting a lot of spam, and very sporadic support. I wouldn't mind reviving Fit to Talk and the Crypto Coin Tree. The lock downs changed a few things for me, and I decided to move further into off grid living. It is a far healthier life style, but I need to install a couple if solar panels to generate my own electricity. Maybe I could use those to power that ASIC miner that I was given, that is if I can find what I did with it.

Farewell o_e_l_e_o

It is my congratulations for you JetCash!

Data is newest Friday merit data dump (hours ago).

From the weekly merit plot, I see a decrease since (second quarter, maybe) 2019 so I guess you are more actively posting in 2018 that reflects on your earned merits in that year.

Thanks for the kind words, and I did only get 500 merits in the air drop. 1,500 is pretty small beer when compared with the statisticians here.

I'm actually not too keen on John Campbell. I think John Bergman is far more useful when it comes to natural health issues, but he is anti-vax and anti-Pharma, so he gets demoted quite a lot. The Irishman, Ivor Cummins ( the Fat Emperor) interviews some very interesting and unusual medical people.

I didn't even know you were posting specifically about health stuff. But anyway, if you like posting about health stuff and if you actually enjoy researching about it, then why stop? We don't really need merits as Legendary members anyway(though I'll admit receiving merits makes me feel good a bit).

I suspect that most members discredit the personal research that I have done into various health issues.

I may disagree with some of your opinions on health issues but I have also gotten lots of helpful information; for one, I got connected to Dr. John Campbell's YouTube channel through your threads, and it has been a great resource for useful content related to global health situations.
Congrats on your merit achievement. Your contributions would be valuable whichever board you stick to.

Does this mean you're up 1500 merits since the systems introduction?

I'd say that's pretty impressive. I'm normally targeting "curious newbies" and people on the tech boards so I'm probably guilty of not being fair to some legendafies in my merit dispursements.

And meh on the health research stuff. Everyone gets an opinion and to make their own decisions when it comes to their health. Your autonomy rights are protected by law.

What a struggle it has been to get my last 20 merits to get to my 2,000. Well, I guess I didn't really try too hard, as I wasn't posting in the merit earning threads. Merits are a recognition that a poster's opinions are of benefit to the forum, and I suspect that most members discredit the personal research that I have done into various health issues. But then, this is a Bitcoin and crypto forum, so I should really be contributing in those topics. I've just announced that I am going "Bitcoin only" in accepting payments for domain names in a domainers' forum, and I'll let you guys know how that goes.

Now the question is - can I behave myself, and stick to Crypto and economics. Maybe I will just slip in a few Knights Templar and the origins of Unicorns threads on the way.
