Bloody hell, I get the point, I really do. But it won't prevent from shitposting anyway, It will just be a pain in the ass for new users.
It will be pain in the ass of shit-posters as i'm sure new users won't need points as they were not here to earn free money.

Bloody hell, I get the point, I really do. But it won't prevent from shitposting anyway, It will just be a pain in the ass for new users, who are just starting their journey in crypto world. They won't be able to post quality content, as they don't have any knowledge. Being a Jr Member all that time will be just demotivating for young fellows. It'll be way way harder to rank up now. Daamn, I mean it's just too subjective.
Then they don't need to post before they do a whole bunch of reading, do they? 

That's what I did.  I lurked for months before even creating an account, and it was more months before I joined a signature campaign.   

These days we've got whole towns in Asia coming here just for the campaigns, and they are all shitposters and they all sound alike.  So it's too damn bad that these noobs won't rank up.  They shouldn't be able to, and the merit system is near perfect for ensuring that.

 I think that there is not enough merit points. Even though the system could be good.
Everybody wants quality, but we might blew it with low points.

You need to add another image at the end entitled Staff (no pun intended, albeit ...) so to come TOTALLY full-circle (ref.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qVE60zwXx1k) ...

The topical sarcasm of a quip about merit in the merit thread goes right over your head, I see.

just because i came here to "merit" his post (he linked it in russian merit topic).
Also, if you will open your eyes, you will see that i already "hero member". Difference between "hero" and "legendary" in most signature campaigns is too low (but mostly there is no difference at all).
following to this i'm not interested in merit (yeah, i don't want to lie: i like when people "merits" me for my good actions or usefull posts. But i don't care about disputes in Meta section).

I’m not your “bruda”.

Np, bruda. (sorry, could not resist  Cheesy)

My post history is readily available. I think that speaks to the quality of my posting before the merit system existed.

I also merited you for some usefull topics and thoughts. But to be honest: most of your merits you've got in Meta section flaming with spammers and other noobs. (useless occupation).

In sum—methinks you’re projecting yourself with your accusation of projecting.  It’s not the first time I’ve seen such things from you.

 Grin

Let me spell this out for you:  If you post a Communist agitprop picture, then yes, you are Red scum.  
No, you're wrong.
it's not a agitprop picture. For honest, it's very popular (for photoshoping) picture. For creating memes. For example 1 , 2, KITTONS!!!1 and also ponies
His picture just was another meme. Yeah, in your opinion it disgusting meme, cause it against merit. But it still meme.

If someone using propaganda poster for creating some funny picture it doesn't means that he belong to this ideology. Remember how much memes with Hitler we have  Cheesy

Unless, that is, you are someone currently at least age 45+ who was born in the former Soviet Union
Little correct

If some drooling imbecile from the “Che T-shirt” faction of American college brats posted the same picture, then I would roast him to a cinder

Why so? Che is mostly represent fight for freedom than communism. But it's obvious that if you're vietnam/nicaraguan/cuban guerrilla who fights against french for freedom you need some help. If USA and other western countries didn't want to help, then you turned your head to red empire.
So many people respected guerillas and i understand them very good. People loves such person like Che because they respected fight for freedom (i think that americans may understood me pretty well)

I am not complaining about it. Like I said, it is good for more quality posts instead of "nice project" or "I like it".. So only pointing out that it should get more known, so more people understand it, so we can move forward with this system and people can be more rewarded for their quality posts! Smiley

For the sake of fishing for merit points the 'I love this ICO' posts have now become 'I love the merit system' posts. Quite an improvement indeed.  Roll Eyes
For as far I know, this is a forum, used for example: Discussions.. So how can you see my post as phising for merit, where I only state out that it would be nice if the merit system would get more known (Also another post, which you did not quote).. In the end, we are almost all aiming for a higher rank on the forum. As I also never said 'I love the merit system'.  So I don't see the usage of your post as a reaction to me! Other then to up your own activity..

I think that merit system is quite difficult to others but for me merit sytem is quite challenging it make you more challege to post constructive and more high quality post. The harder you work to gain for merits the better to do your very best. That's why i will do my best to gain those merits so that i will rank up to member up to legendary. good luck to all like me who wants to rank up. godbless
GREAT! AIM HIGH!

bruda, pls stop thinking that other people writing something only for merit/money/other incentives. Do not compare others with yourself.

The topical sarcasm of a quip about merit in the merit thread goes right over your head, I see.

I’m not your “bruda”.  As for your insinuation that I write for “merit/money/other incentives”, let’s see:

My post history is readily available.  It reflects that when I was a Newbie and the merit system did not exist, I posted the same way—insulted idiots the same way—did most everything the same way, but for occasional fumbling due to being a forum newbie.  If you suggest I’m writing for merit, go read one of my earliest posts as a Newbie:  My debut in Development & Technical Discussion, three days after I started actively posting.  People actually remembered some of my early posts, such that I got a total of +17 for old Newbie/Jr. posts during four days of complete inactivity from 25–29 January.  I think that speaks to the quality of my posting before the merit system existed.

That said, I do enjoy being shown appreciation, and knowing that people find my posts valuable.  The merits and moreover, the intentions of those who award them give me a smile for a job well done.  That’s really the positive purpose of the system.

As for money, my PGP key fingerprints are paying me handsomely for my signature.  The payola isn’t not as good as shilling for sarcasm; but the sarcasm sig ad campaign only accepts Sr. Member rank and higher.  I have already given an “I’ll think about it” to another plum offer for my signature.  But since I’m still thinking about it, and perhaps will be for a very long time, I really don’t see how that could motivate me to write posts.

As for “other incentives”—what?  Pursuit of a pretty girl?  Why yes, I write for that “incentive” sometimes—and I get what I want.

In sum—methinks you’re projecting yourself with your accusation of projecting.  It’s not the first time I’ve seen such things from you.

I saw funny picture. Then i saw your post full of butthurt without any reason for it. (with stupid conclusions like "you posted commie picture - you're the commie"). And i advised you to stop. Without any mercenary minds.

Let me spell this out for you:  If you post a Communist agitprop picture, then yes, you are Red scum.  Unless, that is, you are someone currently at least age 35–40+ who was born in the former Soviet Union or other formerly Communist-ruled places.  In that case, you may simply be riffing some familiar cultural thing you grew up with, without any political intentions.  Wherefore my apology to Lunarics, when he explained that this was indeed the case.  By available evidence, I misfired on that one.  You may have observed that I rarely apologize to anybody—only when I get something wrong, which is almost never.

If some drooling imbecile from the “Che T-shirt” faction of American college brats posted the same picture, then I would roast him to a cinder.  Commie.  A person’s subjective cultural context can be determinative, in some limited ways not to be over-expanded as academic sociologists tend to do.  (Commies.)

And i don't care about your discussion, because i replied only for specific post.

So...  You don’t care that I’d already recanted what I said to Lunarics, for reason of my recognizing that I’d mismeasured him.  In other words, you are searching for an excuse to flame me because you hate my guts.  ok, np

You're too much discussing with spammers and others i think. You know, if you live with a dogs, you become a dog soon.
I think you understand what i mean.

ok



Bloody hell, I get the point, I really do. But it won't prevent from shitposting anyway, It will just be a pain in the ass for new users, who are just starting their journey in crypto world. They won't be able to post quality content, as they don't have any knowledge. Being a Jr Member all that time will be just demotivating for young fellows. It'll be way way harder to rank up now. Daamn, I mean it's just too subjective.

^^^ Example of a post by someone who will be a Jr. Member for a very long time—perhaps forever.

No, the merit system didn’t stop you from “shitposting anyway” right here.

Relax! You must be calm. Its just a part of bloody journey for us as a lower rank. Just be more greatful to fight the situations. Its normal for achieving goals to become a successful one. You need to straggle, to fight the tentacles of hardship, just  to aim to the top. After all, if you become a successful, the ILLUSTRATION SHOWS, what will happens. Just be at the bests as what you can do! Good luck!

If you finish reading the discussion between Lunarics and myself before you reply, you may have a cookie.  Not merit, though.  The merit you get for a good post.

I did not want to offend anyone, I want to show that you need to work hard to reach the top in any job! To whom to stop himself to decide

Seriously?  Your graphic depicts a Newbie dead from exhaustion, next to a crowd of Jr. Members who struggle to who hold up all the other ranks above them.  Two Jr. Members to the side hold a Red Flag of the Communist type, with dark, revolutionary looks on their faces.  The “subscription” notice at the top says, “Foremost Exponent of Revolutionary Industrial Unionism”.  You posted 100% Commie scum agitprop, definitely against the merit system.

Calm down. This picture looking very funny. It's some kind of "Oxymoron" at my view.  Cheesy
Also, this picture represents very good attitude to the subject from different ranks (butthurting jr.members for example). Also, most newbies (mostly for those who came here for easy money) looks like on the picture (i think  Grin )

If you finish reading the discussion between Lunarics and myself before you reply, you may have a cookie.  Not merit, though.  The merit you get for a good post.

Like all this people here longing for your merit, keep it to yourself, make "I am the highest rank here I can insult everyone here" rank and put it to yourself, parade it all over bitcointalk
