I've read so many threads and posts about merit, and I've come to realise that the real problem with the merit system is that it rewards meritorious posters. Post count is just a simple count of the number of posts made, regardless of content or benefit to forum members. Activity is a limiter to control the rewards for over-active posters. Trust is a comment on trading morality, and the honesty of a member. Merit is a reflection of the mental ability of the poster, and his willingness to follow community guidelines on posting. If you don't have the ability or intelligence to construct useful posts, then of course you will see merit as discriminating against you. The sensible member will endeavour to develop his abilities to take advantage of the verdant pastures that surround the cesspit.
It isn't too difficult to improve your posting skills. The first task is to read the rules, and to read the thread before you post in it. The second task is to ensure that your post can be understood by your readers. This means you should check for typing errors and misspellings before you hit post. If English isn't your first language, then try to ensure that your sentence structure follows the rules of English, and isn't just a word translation of your local language.
Well said. I have seen too that maximum Jr. Members are expecting merit. It's ok they can expect if they make good post. But when I see they just want upgrade their rank only for signature camping, then I feel really bad myself. Even though I am still Jr. Member, I have not joined yet any bounty. Because I had joined bitcointalk for learn about cryptocurrency and I am still learning.
On the other hand English is most important for this forum to get merit. Because this is the most popular forum about cryptocurrency.
