Topic: Merit Giveaways Here! - page 3. (Read 2086 times)

It's quite interesting to see this as my first thread after joining this forum. We all know how most of the forums work, no spamming, no low-quality post etc. Let's hope I'll find a section in this forum that I can fit.

I recently became a self made full members in a little bit more than 6 months of active participation on the Forum.
I posted a thread about my adventure so far, hopefully can be useful to other trying to rank up. I put some advice there, even if not so well written and organised as those by Cabalism13.

Hope it helps!

Thanks a lot for putting all this together. I joined today and had a real hard time understanding how ranks and merit work. You post was extremely helpful.

Will try my best to become "junior member" and get the merit needed. Doesn't sound too hard.

Have a great day, and thanks again.

99% of the time, yes. Old threads in Bitcoin Discussion, Altcoin Discussion, Economics, etc deserve to be left alone - when they are necrobumped, they are almost always necrobumped with some nonsense one line spam that serves no purpose other than to attract other spammers to the dead topic. However, in boards like Technical Support, when looking for help with a problem it is often better to find an old thread with the same or similar problem and run through that thread first. If you still need help, then necrobumping that thread can be beneficial, as it prevents other users from having to rehash all the same ideas/solutions again.

Bumping some threads could be very helpful if it contains useful information that other members could have missed, especially if it didn't get much attention when posted.
There are couple of old threads where the discussion is still very relevant and informative. Such threads has a lot newbies can learn from.

Also, I would tone down the name calling, your point can be well communicated without the need to reference accounts, especially is controversial contexts.

The kids got some brains, he realised that reading a bit, learning what goes on here, reading some more & reading the rules pays off many multiples more than being a Pajeet bounty hunting fuck. i'll support and help any newbies who show some genuine interest in becoming a  part of this community, anyone who is just here for a quick buck can fuck off and go on ignore, I am cool either way.

This is something for the newbies here who are actually looking to invest, I bought bitcoin all the way up and back down numerous times from $30 all the way up to $18K and all the way back down again to buying 2 weeks ago @ $4K ish - Dollar cost average, it is the most sensible way to invest in this highly volatile market, don't get greedy Just buy what you can afford to forget about, be it weekly or monthly.

Seen and read this whole thread on our local board, I guess this is a Déjà Vu to reread it again but in a different discourse.

That's @cabalism for you, the likes of a rags to riches story here in forum.

#i-KMJS na yan!, or;

If they cant take 3 minutes to read an informative post then I am afraid they should fuck off. It ain't hard, read this info, digest this info, then action as advised.

Nice guide. Would be better if it was a little  more short because you know newbie will not go through the whole text for sure. They will be kinda "TL;DR".

I would adjust point number 8. I agree that only posting one line replies is a fairly solid sign of being a bounty spammer, but there are some instances where a brief one line reply is all that is needed. Longer posts are interesting to read not because they are longer per se, but because they contain more or complex information. Making your replies needlessly longer by padding them out with waffling or repeating the same nonsense is boring to read and will likely get your post reported. Be long enough to cover the point, but short enough to be interesting.

I'm also a bit skeptical with your general "aim for merit" advice. While I absolutely agree new users shouldn't be "aiming for bounties", I also don't think they should be aiming for merit. They should be aiming to learn, discuss and contribute, and by doing so constructively, some merit will likely come their way. Merit should be a by-product, not a goal, in my opinion.

Nice guide, though.

Just hoping you aren't an alt account like the cross users above as accused by hilariousetc  Just joking. No doubt the above account have contributed positively especially S_Therapist that's why they get rewarded with merits and ranked up.  Congrats on your ranking up too.  I notice you participating in jet cash's My 25 sMerit offer for a single post contest fastened your ranking up process.

No offends but your post contradict you title "simple" remove the simple. if I was to give a simple tip I'll make it simple, maybe something like post right, post with quality, avoid quote spamming and in addition have a good posting history simple.  The tips is just too long mate.

To Get More Attention Of The Newbies I Tend To Set A Bait

I originally made this thread on our local board, but it seems that I need to share this here as well, For the reason there are so many newbies and juniors here from any where.
I guess, some of you might already know this things, maybe some of you doesn't and maybe some of you doesn't care at all

For me, I can say that these thing are really effective for the reason I already have this account as proof. I started as a newbie with 0 Merits, just like the others, S_Therapist, r1s2g3, mdayonliner and so on. And as you can see I'm already one of the Senior Member League and only a bit more to the Hero League.

The majority of members are only here for the bounties, money, coins, etc. And only few of these members really care on knowing about the technology behind crypto. That's why, this is all I can say for those with Money Faces, If you don't bother communicating in this community well you can't even gain the profit that you want. But if you still want some changes then you should consider taking my advice.

-Merit was introduced as a barrier for shitposters and spammers to prevent them from bringing an endless loads of non sense here on the community, so if you don't want to be considered like them, you might want to do these things:

1. As early as possible, Stop joining the never ending Social Media Campaigns. Actually if you'll think about it carefully what you gain on these campaigns isnt that much compared to the salary that you can earn on the reality. Or just consider only joining on Signature Campaigns.But take note if you're going to do some campaigns make sure that you're activities isnt full of non sense, because Big Names are quite right this is a forum no a business are or profit giver.

2. Avoid the SMT (Spam Mega Threads), as you can see most of you are posting in this sections with crappy replies, all of it are just scraps. This is such a waste of effort, you've already see a thread with 5-10 pages of answers and yet you want to post again another answer? That's absurd.

Create an activity where anybody can notice it, not on the flooded SMT, then you'll whine just because no one has given you Merits for your works.

3. Actually its ok to post on Sections that has been flooded by spammers just follow TIP NO. 2.

4. Expand your Knowledge, if you're face is like a money then you must do what I'm currently saying, Rank Up, Aim High. If you're not good in english then its alright but the question is, are you okay with just that? AIM HIGH.

5. We have a very reliable friend and that isGOOGLE, he is very friendly, he can even provide you videos, translations, and other services that you need on creating or constructing paragraphs.

6. If you're just into Bounties and doesn't even care about what you earn, then why Don't let Merit break your life once again, Gain Merits.

7. Actually Merits should only be rewarded to quality posts but as the facts says it can be given if someone agrees on or likes your posts. (But not frequent.)

8. Avoid creating so much Single or Double Liner posts, As much as possible have have it some more contents for the viewers be interested on what you're saying, but if it cant be avoided make a brief statement that has some special contents.

9. Learn to use punctuation marks.?! () ',.

10. Dont let it be your habit on making such replies like "I agree","Nice" etc., Like what I've said, expand your knowledge.

11. Eavesdrop what I mean is always be updated for you to Learn something new.

12. If you're being treated like shit, let them be. Just learn something from them. Even if this makes you crazy laugh at it, accept it willingly.you have to adjust yourself.

13. If you have seen anything share it, Just to let the others keep updated. Take Note: It's always very important to write a neat well-organised and well-spaced post if you are to share a lot of information with the community.

14. Grab the oppotunity if there are some challenges around the forumin that sense you build up yourselves.

15. Dont Bump on The Old Topics. However, in boards like Technical Support, when looking for help with a problem it is often better to find an old thread with the same or similar problem and run through that thread first. If you still need help, then necrobumping that thread can be beneficial, as it prevents other users from having to rehash all the same ideas/solutions again.

And if Red Trust gets you, just make a simple and nice conversation with whom has given you the Red Trust Some DTs offers a second chance, but dont Include the Leader of The Cult Lauda. If he/she has given you one better to not be pissed.

Avoid the cult of the pussies. Dont let them get you or else you'll be like cryptohunter

Last But Not The Least, AIM for Merits not the bounties, why? with the helps of this you can rank up, if this happens you can be known as a good citizen of bitcointalk. If you build up some reputation more chances of winnings more higher rates on campaigns to come.

PS. Because of my achievement I have so many sMerits to spend. And some offers me that they will help me on distributing this things.Merit Sources are willing to help. So its better to Help yourselves.
We're not selfish on giving Merits, its just that we have our own criterias on giving these Merits to several users.

No Offense But These Are Facts.
