Thanks for mentioning my post and acknowledging the fact that I am updating the post, now I know that at least one person read all the updates . I really appreciate that.
. I really appreciate that. Ah always keep that going man, I’d love to just have to visit your thread with the good updates and info rather than see 25 threads with all these little updates.
Thought I dropped merit on ya before for it, but I fixed it!

Again, thanks man.
for Bold part : that's the reason I am keep updating the OP, otherwise valuable news-info gets lost all the time. for next time will reserve space for good argument and valuable post from other users too. In fact every OP should do this IMHO and more importantly without any bias so that genuine reader can directly jump into right part of discussion, where actual discussion taking place.

Yes, a merit source that hangs out in politics & society would be great. I see a lot of great posts there go un merited. I'm surprised BADecker doesn't get more merit, a lot of people think he is kind of nuts but he puts a lot of effort into his posts.
I think this member would be a valuable contributor as a merit source as they are otherwise.
Yes, please appoint squatz1, one of the few non-nutjob residents in P&S. It's a weird board, seems tangential to "Bitcoin forum", but there is a lot of good discussion in it - probably better than most boards outside of the technical/mining ones.
Thanks Suchmoon, it really does mean a lot! I try, hehe!

Hey there guys,
Some of you may be asking why I’m applying to be a merit source. I’m applying to be a merit source as I feel as if I’ve been an established member of many sections on this board -- in particular the Politics and Society section -- and I feel as if I’d be able to reward those who make great posts and are unrewarded as of current.
I do feel that the P&S section is lacking some merit love when it comes to our quality posts, as we’ve seen a large number of amazing discussions occur on the section without much merit being awarded.
In my view, there are many other sections on the board that get a lot more love when it comes to merit, and I know that I’d be the right person to encourage discussion on the board and within our section.
I think that in the P&S section there is a clear issue with merit sources having a political bias and if the merit source will be impartial in providing merit to those based on the
I’m going to stop selling myself through words, and just show you the type of threads that I would be meriting.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.50746477 - This amazing post by Theymos, breaking down the entire Mueller report (which is in the range of 450 or so pages) is broken down in a great way. I recommend anyone to read this.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.50753362 - Suchmoon responding to my post in a clear and concise manner, providing for a great discussion on our section that promotes a back and forth in ideas. I want to stress that I don’t agree with him politically, I still do (and must as a merit source) recognize someone's good points.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.50753643 - Flying Hellfish - Yet again I want to stress that while I may not agree with his opinion, I do recognize his points and I think that his points towards the American Healthcare system is fair to see.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.50654509 - QuickSeller breaking down news relating to NK’s newest tactical missile testing. Helps you understand the relationship between China and North Korea.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.49979444 - BADecker sharing some charts and such, and even though this is a thread which has been around for years now -- I think these charts are things that people must see. I’d like to see this entire thread restarted to ensure that people talk about this with new information (on a fresh new area)
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11106086 - Mike Christ - Even though this is a thread from long ago, and is politically motivated, I do still think that it does an excellent analysis of politicians as a whole and does require some love. (I do know this doesn't fit the couple months ago requirement, though I am going to provide this one as me showing what threads I think is correct -- I'll add another thread below to show a current post that fits this same criterion)
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.50744225 - cestmoi - While this entire thread is filled with hate, I do think that Cestmoi does an outstanding job in breaking down why hatred towards Islams and Muslims isn’t fair. I’m not going to comment on the merit of his argument as a whole, as I don’t think that should be apart of the job as a merit source -- I think we should recognize good arguments and provide them rewards for such.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.50702409 - JSRAW - Breaking on a new story should not only be rewarded because it is new but continuing to update people on when further information is being added SHOULD BE rewarded.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.50729667 - raymondspeaks - While this thread is filled with a lack of 'eh' posting, I think Raymond does a good job of taking a good amount of time to really think about the subject at hand. As you can see this took some time and some thinking to write. I like it, and we should reward those that are new for this sort of work.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.50175248 - poptok1 - This point regarding those that commit mass shootings is amazing, and should be known by all and rewarded. Those that have commit mass shootings are made famous, and this shouldn’t be the case.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.50301743 - QuickSeller - Great post breaking down some information on the Mueller report, I think this should be posted (alongside Theymos' breakdown) in an entire new thread so we can ensure people see all of this analysis instead of it being buried. - This is my 11th post, as this is recent while one of my other posts isn't recent.
