Goodnight, o_e_l_e_o 🌹
During my reading of different post's and i noticed that what we call a merit, And was unable to understand what's the meaning of merit until i read from here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.61426768 so theirs something that motivated me to drafts this, and it's because of this person " DdmrDdmr " it suggestion make me to know that to earn merit will motivate some to change it content and make it posting narrative unique.
That's means to earn a merit someone supposed to follow this principles

Despite that I'm new and i haven't earn merit, but i believe with research and time i will earn merit, i will be happiest person the day i will earn a merit.

You are lucky that your trap caught 5 merits, or do I say you are smart. I already know that to earn merit in this forum is not difficult for people that knows how to do it. Without doubt you are experienced on how to earn merits and I wish you speedy growth in the forum.
But the sole aim should not be merits and to rank up, maybe you could use your newbie status to learn more things.

Thinking critically and reading a lot about crypto and forum rules is one of the soft skills needed to improve posting on this forum. so that later when you make posts on each topic it's easier because you already understand a little of the contents of that topic.

So I think critical thinking is the main thing in making the discussion in this forum interesting and systematic so that those who read it will benefit. Don't focus on merit, because merit will come by itself.

I don't know maybe it's me that's not getting your point straight or the collocation of your grammars here but every merit you received must have complied to this posting etiquettes https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitcointalk-posting-etiquette-5184741 and receiving merit is at will, if you're hunting for merits obviously you may not get because you're not giving the expected result to qualify for receiving it, post quality is judge by the recipient we feels he got touched and imformed by what you have posted and this does not need to be a whole full page, with merit or not people will make good post with a desiring content while some will not.

To an extwnt you're very much correct in addition to the criteria put down by the link of the thread in your comment.  But I'll like to remind you that there are certain posts that do got merit's (in rare cases) out of the discretion of the reader and not because it posseses all the quality you or another person might feel that such post must posses to earn merit.

In other words, what am saying is that, some times readers discretion plays a role in meriting a post.  Don't you think so?

OP, as far as I can see, you only recently joined this forum, wrote only 9 posts and already received your first two merits.
That's a much better start than most newbies on this forum have so it looks like you've successfully applied your own rules about thinking before you write  Grin
However, I would still advise you not to think too much about the merits, but about how you can contribute to this forum and its members.
Everything else, including the merits, will come naturally, based on your investment and contribution on this forum.
Welcome to the forum!
you are right,the forum just needs constant and regular readers that are ready to read and learn from other people's posts in other for them to understand the things they've not understood since they started.I think the forum is a place where we learn about Bitcoin,and study the market through people's contributions and comments on other people's posts.
And for merits,this is what it seems to be a little difficult for now,everybody needs merit to rank up.Just make quality posts and your name will be known in the forum.

These are part of the principles for earning merits, but there's more to them.

A good technical question can also earn you merit because it demonstrates that you have gone deep and learned before posing the question in order to clear your doubts and possibly gain more understanding from experienced forum users.

Furthermore, providing the correct answer or a perfect solution to a problem or question can earn you merits because the main purpose of this forum is to provide all basic guides related to bitcoin as well as solutions to any Bitcoin-related questions.

Just don't write anything related to what you've learned so far. Especially with regard to merit, because almost everyone is aware of it, and you have only recently discovered and begun writing about it. Not a good sign at all, and to be honest, some people will interpret it negatively. But, if someone asks about it, you can share your experience. People are motivated to write good posts by merit. However, you should not post in order to gain merit. Simply contribute to the forum, and the forum will return the favor.
Since i created this topic i haven't calm down and read your comment, but today i took time to read your response in some threads and i find out that theirs alot of meanings in your comment. And as you said many people will misunderstood what i said and that's the truth, my guidelines will be taken by the people that their comments is meaningful. At least your words is a words of advice.

OP, the forum is not a rocket science. Just read the rules and join into discussion whenever you wanted to. It shouldn't be too hard to learn the "usual" stuffs around here since it is pretty much a common knowledge to many people. I had encountered some users that are trying to overcomplicate things and had no idea what to tell them tbh.

Welcome to the forum regardless.

I noticed that one of the things that will make somebody to learn perfectly in the forum is for you to observe the forum with much time, because without observation and a research you won't understand the system of here, and if someone have a guidance the person will master the process of this place very fast, but one thing that is major is to pay attention and learn and also make your own inquiring about new development that people may like.

pay attention to each user and how they perceive things well and make their own questions about new developments that others might like. If you can do that, then you will be one step ahead of most of the newbies here. You can also provide various responses with constructive answers and suggestions, which will be a plus for you. But that's not all, you still have a lot to do. You can even provide a description along with supporting data for the topic you are discussing.

Despite that I'm new and i haven't earn merit, but i believe with research and time i will earn merit, i will be happiest person the day i will earn a merit.

So Op how do you feel now that you've earned some merits? Like I said earlier at first the merits titillates you but as time goes on you won't feel anything again even when. You receive up to 10 merits in a single transaction. Op you can confirm it yourself when you get your 35th merit.  Wink

I can't respond to what i dont know, and how to respond to, since i joined bitcointalk i always study the forum,
[~SNIP~]
this is the first time I'm using quote to respond to someone.

I guess this might be useful to you and it might also help reduce your search stress to a bear minimum. Beginners & Help Encyclopedia I don't think there's any need for me to start explaining what the link holds Op just click on it and take your take to go through most of them it's definitely going to be useful for you.

On another advise, don't be discouraged if the post you expect to be merited is not getting such merit because merit giving I think is subjective, someone may like your post but the other person is not. Keep focusing on learning.
Actually if you make a quality post with the hope of getting merit, you have to be patient to get longer merit because not everyone is active in the same thread, but don't expect to get merit from one quality post but always improve the quality for each new post, the more many quality posts in your account history will have a high chance of getting merit.

- hello doctor who box
I can't respond to what i dont know, and how to respond to, since i joined bitcointalk i always study the forum, when you look at my file you will notice i always online. So i took my time to research of the forum and constantly reading of different thread, and if i don't observe this forum i won't have being known how to create topics. It's just last night i noticed exactly how to respond with quote column, so don't blame me because when you are at my stage you make out time to study.

This place is just new to me and I can't know everything within short time, i will continue to read across and learn somethings that I'm not familiar with. It took me time to know that quote is another function someone can use to respond to question until i clicked on it and notice it's functions. Cross check my post's, this is the first time I'm using quote to respond to someone.
Don't make a new thread on topics that is unnecessary, you can use the search button to search for your quarry. You are inspired by X and get motivated by Y don't make any new thread for that. Read and reply to other members threads, and implement your knowledge on other threads. Don't announce everything, if everyone starts announcing everything they have learned from the forum, the forum will be flooded with new topics.

Quote
so don't blame me because when you are at my stage you make out time to study.
User @Getmon is not blaming you, he is just telling you start interacting with the topics you already have and not to create new topics.

By the way, congratulations on your first merit.

Thinking before writing
Of course everyone will think before writing, the results of the post start from the mind and then apply it in writing that is easy to read and the layout of the language is easy to understand. The forum strictly prohibits plagiarism, for this reason you must write from your own thoughts.
These point do not guarantee you will get merit.

Reading before posting
Of course you have to read the contents of the thread or other user's post that you want to quote so that it stays in line with the discussion. Without reading beforehand it will make your post lead to Off topic.
After reading then the contents of a mediocre post, how will someone give merit to a low quality post.

Making something different from others
Well, this makes it easier for you to get merit, different posts from other users must have recipes that other forum members can benefit from. Quality posts are not measured by the length of the posts you make, answering other users' questions are also considered quality posts and have the potential to earn merit.

It's good that your observant and what you've said isn't far from the truth as these would aid you in arranging your write up to have some sort of pattern or sequencing to it and better appreciated by the public.
Though, your likely not going to be at your best if you don't find a way to be put yourself in your write up. You've got be enthusiastic about what your writing about and not force it.
Some users end up forcing a topic of discussion on themselves and be looking out for context to put words to make it appealing or make a complete sense and most times, it doesn't come out nice.

When the passion or instinct that pushes you to go putting you thoughts down isn't there, give it a break.

It seems that you have started to learn, the bitcointalk forum is the right forum for you, you can learn a lot. The more often you do it, the more you will understand how to use the forum properly. You don't need to rush to learn everything, do it gradually until you really understand and make a good contribution to this forum. You don't need to ask for merit, what you need to do is how can you present a useful topic and review several topics with good responses and provide solutions to current problems. You have to develop it, then you will become a member that is needed in this forum.

This person has just created their fourth topic. Thus, there are only five posts in total under his or her name but four of them are all about creating topics. Are you not planning to respond to those four topics you came up with? Or do you intend to continue regularly spamming topics?

You certainly draw inspiration from DdmrDdmr, but you should also examine and imitate his methods of achievement and follow his lead. That individual is an excellent bitcointalk member with excellent topics and figures presented.

@OP, Like you said, you got motivated by DdmrDdmr's comment on that thread, and like he said, "the thought of merit may also strengthen you towards drafting a quality post." But do not be deceived; there are lots of opinions in this forum, and there are also different criteria that members of this forum look at before awarding merit. The way DdmrDdmr thinks of your post and award merit may not be the same way others do. So should you make a post that may seem of quality to you and you are wondering why you've got no merit, just know that every member has their own criteria for merit awards, and it also depends on the board on which you create your topic. Threads like Altcoins discussion and off-topic, which are always full of spam posts is not often visited by most members that award merit,

Be also careful; as @DdmrDdmr said, "if you are too focused to earn merit, it may lead you to plagiarizing." Just keep your enthusiasm going; no shitposting. To me, this thread was not necessary. You got motivated? express it in your comments and topics.

The best thing that make people make good post is completely research, this is the A-Z of it. I have tried to advise newbies from just jumping to make post they don’t know about.

You shouldn’t think you get merit from every post you make no, you get it from who your post or reply passes to us. A self research post has lots of benefits for the community and even the poster.
