Any body can get merit from Brand New to Legendary to Administrators.... only requirement is "quality post".
I don't agree with your post that only requirement is quality post . I didn't seen any newbie who have got any marit though some of them have posted quality posts.I feel it's just like some of the higher rank members are hiding behind the fairytale of Quality Post thing. If any newbie can't get single merit does that mean they can't post anything good at all? Instead of Quality Post thing why everyone can say ,the bitter truth of "newbies couldn't get merited" unless they rank up as a junior member or above.That's fine for me, because as a newbie we should learn and contribute to the forum before gets any merit just like other higher rank members who have done tremendous contributions to the forum by sharing their knowledge. Btw following post also got a merit

I wonder who the first one to 15 million merits will be Wink

I like this change a lot. Hopefully we'll see an increase in post quality.
P.S - only just quated for highlighting my point, not for criticising by any means Smiley

Perhaps you are getting caught up in the weeds a bit, vphasitha?

When I joined the forum in early 2014, I came here because I wanted to learn about bitcoin, and I was passionate about the topic.

Ranking up was a bit of a side benefit, but really was not part of my consciousness.

Seems that if you are posting about your passion, and helping out others, as you learn yourself, then your post will likely cause other members to want to merit you.... merits are somewhat subjective because somehow you have to cause individuals to want to merit your posts, whether it is because of quality or humor or that you helped them or maybe they just begin to like you after reading several of your posts.  Frequently, I merit posts that I don't really like, but instead, over a period of time, I have begun to appreciate the contributions of the member over time (so in that regard, a merit might be received that is not merely about that one particular post that receives the merit).

To be honest I was a bit disappointed when I at last got my activity level high enough to be a member but then they had just added this merit system so now it will take more time to at least become a member. How can I actually get more merit? I just think Jr. members or newbies who post in the threads will just be ignored. Who would listen to Low rank anyways.

i dont think, what guys, want to give a some Merit if they can`t easyly his pick up
With such broken-English, you will never earn more than 10 legally merits.
Yeah, you will certainly not rank up to Full Member.
It will never happen, and should not happen.

The fact is you joined the forum in 13rd of February, about one month after the launch day of merit system. Therefore, I don't see you have reasons to complain about the system. In my opinion, only old users who unfortunately stucked at their ranks due to effects of merit system and new rank requirements, particularly someone who need only 1, 2 or several more days to ranked up with activity count
So, why did you dissapointed, fella?  Roll Eyes
To be honest I was a bit disappointed when I at last got my activity level high enough to be a member but then they had just added this merit system so now it will take more time to at least become a member.

What you should do is keep posting such your last thread, then over time, you will get answers by yourself.

Only deserved threads will earn merits. Please remember this important point.

Bonus:
There are abundant available topics on merit system. You should find them by yourself.
For my current topics, you can visit there to get them:
   
tbct_mt2's Guideline on some forum functions, English texbooks

Those topics are not directly related to merit system, but apply those knowledge, skills, tips can help you to be more constructive in the forum.
After that, What must be, must be!

I feel hard problems with this system but it think it is very helpful to anti the actions, actions not exist on forum
Firstly, your thread was written with broken-, fake-English, so it makes non-sense.
Secondly, if you felt 'hard problems' with merit system, you should simply leave the forum and find other places which don't have systems as merit system in the forum.
Please stop it and spend your time to learn English if you want to stay in the forum.

You have 3 (shit)posts to your name; how in the world is the merit system giving you "hard problems"?

Till you can comment in the altcoins sections and newbies like you can post their application there, you should be thankful.

Please stop talking non-sense. Lots of merit beggars wrote like this.
I like this new system, as I prefer quality over quantity.

English broken at some extent. Next time, you should compose your threads with better writen-English.

It just seems like there are no merits in my local thread yet  Undecided I guess there aren't a lot of high ranking members there that are regular
There they would be extra useful as those posts generally don't count for signature campaigns even if they are high quality.

The fact is merit-deserved threads will earn merits whatever threads published.
Quote
This way there would be some reward for posting high quality posts in local threads.

What are your main purposes to be a merit source in your local thread, honestly?
Another point is that local boards are amongst the most abused places in the forum, including account sellings, merit exchanges, etc.

I am not sure if I would be eligible to be a "source" of merit points that I can bring to my local thread as I have only been here for few months and I don't want to be greedy.

So what i understand "alts" are ok... as long as your are not breaking any "rules".

- Can participate in the same bounty with alts [No]
...
- Can wear same signature when in "signature campaign"  [Yes?]

A signature campaign results in a payment/bounty, so per your first point, it shouldn't be okay. Also, generally signature campaigns managers specify that enrolling with more than one account isn't allowed.

I thought that it is strictly prohibited. Of I guess it is maybe ok until someone reports you to moderator and you get banned for this?

It's not. Here is a thread with known alts: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/user-generated-known-alts-of-anyone-1702409. You can see that a lot of users have known alts that neither have negative trust nor have been banned.

For the 1st time we have 0 transaction of 50 sMerit. Also we are going slowly to my prediction of 3.5k sMerit/week


Are we going to see February levels, soon? Or are we in a bear merit market ? Grin Grin Grin
Can't stop looking at that graph and thinking of the price Grin

I'm wondering about a thing, as I'm not the tech guy that is familiar with this stuff.
Since a lot of tracking is focused on the merit people get, shouldn't we look just for a moment at those that don't get any? One thing I'm curios about and I really didn't know who to ask about, can we have also a top of users active since the merit system that haven't received a single merit, ordered by the number of posts?
The hall of shame spam bounty.

And another, most users speak about increasing merit sources, incentivizing users to spend merit in order to raise the numbers of circulation merit but...are there really 5000 or 10 000 posts that deserve merit created a month?
This is starting to sound like fiat problems, what if we produce and throw around too much?

Hi guys, I have heard that in future there can be bans of people who doesn't have merit at all, I have 100, but I did not earn it, it was given me because I was Full member at the time, If I do not earn merit at all, will there be any sanctions applied to my profile? Or it is just a rumor?

I gave you 1 merit point this is my alt account
