Thank you for the regular updates

Yes it should be logical merit decreasing every week, sMerit should always be less than the previous months merit sent because

Each 1 merit sent will produce -> 0.5 sMerit (like this week its 4544 merits awared, so total sMerits generated are = 2272 )

Only thing which can increase the Merits for next week will be Merit Source, now to calculate the merits for next week's formula will be like

Next week's maximum merits = (Last week given Merits /2 ) + Merit Source's merits

So in summary reason of this decrease:
- Merit sources did not increase for last few weeks
- Not all sMerit distributed which were generated from last week's merits

As theymos hinted Merit Sources will increase gradually.

Also if merits are in abundance and every next post starts getting merit, you will loose the beauty of Merit System. It should be less and should be given to well deserving posts only.

Here we go! weekly update. Merit is decreasing again (probably for decay?)

11/03/2018   17/03/2018      7278
18/03/2018   24/03/2018      7378
25/03/2018   31/03/2018      5883
01/04/2018   07/04/2018      7525
08/04/2018   14/04/2018      5778
15/04/2018   21/04/2018      4761
22/04/2018   28/04/2018      4544

Side note. Cause the file is uploaded on the middle of the week and I do the spreadsheet on the end of the week, weeks results cutted in 2 but overall data must be the same with other people here. Always used this way to calculate it, so the % is based on my data. (overall must be the same with other users data, only few 0.0x % difference)

So far 22.6 k sMerit on April. (Keep in mind missing 3-4 days)
Some sources must be afk or they do not want spend all of it, or maybe they can't find constructive posts! (imho) Cause if we considering some sMerit rewarded from airdop and some other sMerit rewarded from normal users, the number must be bigger (sources generate around 18k montly).

So I noticed it says unused Merit can be decayed at some point in the future - What's the point of this?

Unused sMerit (sendable Merit). I think it's supposed to incentive rewarding others with merit and punish those that hoard their sMerit.
The merit system works only if people actively use it, else everyone is stuck at their current rank.

Quote from: BlackRock on January 24, 2018, 06:07:09 PM

I wish there would have been some sort of option of giving dislike (-ve merit) to the spam/LQ posts and if any post receives certain -ve merits/dislikes,it should be automatically deleted /hidden

Given the concerns about abuse even with only positive merit, I dont know if I would support that.
There's a whole other level to possible abuse vectors when adding negative merit as well, that can decrease somebodies rank.

I agree , the negative merit can be use for vengeance propuse , or simply to put down people from a rival coin. In the long run , people with the better post will standout .

Merits is a new system implemented by bitcointalk forums. The effect of this merit occurs on the rank jr member to member. A person who occupies the rank jr member must have ten merit to go up to the next rank that is member.

The effect of merit system concerns every rank.

BTW, bot-like answers detected even in his previous posts.
Why are you reformulating sentences in most of your topics?

So what do I do to get merit? And can go up to the next rank that is Member?

This is a forum where Bitcoin and crypto enthusiasts come to meet and discuss relevant issues. Merit is given out to people when someone with sMerit to spend finds a post useful or interesting. You are here to earn from bounties so nobody is going to find your posts useful or interesting.

So the only answer to your question is to forget all about bounties and ICOs and start getting interested in Bitcoin and Crypto.

Of course it is important what goals and tasks the forum. But there are people who learn a lot and in detail the various ICO and have experience in this field. And their knowledge and skills may also need to be evaluated, but a different scale of values and merits. separated from the existing merits. I for example was interested in communicating to know how many projects the person was a sponsor and helped them to promote their ideas in kryptomere and a separate branch of the merits of the investors. Could give the opportunity in a separate area to speak to people with a different mindset and have their grades, which also had its value.

From Jr member rank to Member rank besides need activity, also need merit as much as 10. Merit is difficult to get, can someone help me up rank Member?

I was going to say that you are the only person who can help you rank up. Then I looked at your post history and came to the conclusion that you are beyond help. Bounty threads and one-liners to bump ICO ANN threads is all you know. The Merit system was put in place to stop you ranking up and it is working.

I doing new post every day but anybody don't me any merit. It's really dificult to get first merit.

When you have the ability to fuck up two fairly short, easy-to-write sentences like this, you better get used to not getting any merits. Doubtless you're only on bitcointalk to spam for bounties, and that means you're never going to gain any sympathy by complaining about the rules.

merit system is not fare

You're still not getting the reason why you think the merit system isn't "fare". It's because you're an incompetent shitposter who has no business posting in any English-language forum. As I mentioned before, you couldn't even get the grammar in your username correct.

That is the purpose of merit system, people to work and do quality post. You know the system, you just need to apply it.

Try to increase your post's quality, not your post counts. In this merit era, if you have an excellent post, even it is only a few, it will give you a lot of merit.

It's also difficult to get like 5 or 12 merit. Dont worry. Everything has its time.

It is difficult indeed, but it is not an impossible task.

For you guys, try to learn some great member's post like nullius, DdmrDdmr, zentdex, me Grin

, and other great members, by looking into their meritted posts.

I don't think it is necessary to make infographics on merit system and its mechanism.
For lazy users, who don't want to spend their a couple of minutes to read the ANN topic created by the forum admin, Theymos, they will probably don't care about how merit system works.
Therefore, such infographics is still irrelevant for their objectives.
For those users who readily to learn and have already spent their time to read the ANN, the infographics and the same ones are irrelevant for them, too. All essentials stuffs presented in the Theymos's ANN.

Anyway, thanks for your time to make your infographics.

Hello guys i am new here and i don't have any merit to give to someone? how does this work where to get merits.

Merit is like giving someone thumbs-up (e.g when you like a friends post on facebook)

As explained above the merit system was introduced to help prevent the posting of irrelevant and spam posts. You need this merit to progress to the next rank. Some merit are spendable that's you can reward others for quality post with it, while others are not. When you don't use those spendable merit it disappears.
Click on merit to see how many spendable merits you have.

Before you needed just activities to move to the next rank but now you need merits too and this will help reduce the rate of irrelevant (spam and scam) posts so their posts gets rewarded with merit.

In simple sentence when you merit someone for his post is like you're liking the post.

Kindly read the post again slowly and you will understand better
