Topic: Save your nice merit records here - LAST UPDATE: 13/04/2024 - page 62. (Read 38624 times)

This was really quick. I did not expect it this fast.

I was more interested to see the stat for Hero and Legendary users and as I expected it's not many. Out of many its only 17 (8+9) which gives a clear indication that this is a very hard ratio to chase.

True indeed but at the same time it's funny if they really be interested to chase it even if this needs deleting some of the posts. It's exciting period for lower rank members.

Gazeta, you current numbers -
Merit: 2513
Posts: 2518

Clearly the number of posts suppressed the merits for now. Are you up to make an interesting topic/posts for us to give you some more merits? 😉

I tried hard to bring valuable contributions to the forum, but it was not enough. So then I activated a special perk, named Merits Cycling Club


Thank you!

Thank you, BitcoinGirl.Club!


What you say is true, this is also why I am so happy for catching this once in a lifetime opportunity!  


I was curious about this for a long while now. Fortunately, we have DdmrDdmr here which, with his (non?) human powers presented the statistics

Interesting... they are not many but, somehow, I thought they are even less. Regarding the ranks distribution, it's normal: the higher the rank gets, the harder is to have more merits than posts.

I’ll keep it brief …

I make it 2003 forum members as of last Friday, considering those that have more earned merits than posts (I disregarded airdropped Merits):
List ordered by rank and then by Received Merits - Posts
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1a4mmOKjFXDfsrOBP3HJRDFMYt_KcEpHeW21x73kcGF4/edit?usp=sharing

Note that, the lower we go down the list, the more cases of users that have not logged-in for quite a while, and likely some of the top lower ranks have deleted a bunch of their posts (thus figuring high within their rank).

You are still moving strong https://prnt.sc/6wWOWAmJ2Puc (I am not sure if prnt.sc will keep the data forever)

Anyway, it's amazing! But I do not think it's really possible to chase posts vs merit. Activity vs merit is fine but racing against posts is not possible all the time. I could be wrong but it will be interesting to see some stats which will give a number of the users who have more merit than their corresponding post numbers. It will even be more interesting if we can see it group by the ranks we have. I wonder if users like LoyceV and DdmrDdmr already have this stat or not.

For you it might be the next milestone but there are some more pending records on your account as mentioned by @joker_jouse and in the meanwhile you will be helping many more members to save some nice record here in this thread.So hope your 5555 merit record is soon as you are 295 merits away from it and it won't take long for you to reach there.

So you have unlocked some super powers where you have more merits then posts and activity way less than both of them? At this time of writing you have 2513 merits and 2512 posts but it would have been great if they were equal so it would really be great if you somehow managed to get 2526 (based on 14 activity you will get next distribution cycle)

But still congratulations to you man and making your way on the forum over these years.

Well it's worth noting I'll be keeping an eye on him to pick it up. 
It won't take long for @Pharmacist to reach 5555 which will be beautiful to catch.

mk4 is the record I saved just now. 3000 has been reached.

If I am allowed, I'd like to post here a screenshot (actually two screenshots) to remember the moment when I managed to have more merits than posts. This is, probably, a once in a lifetime moment, especially when the posts number becomes huge (let's say more than 1000). I don't know if I'll manage to keep this ratio in the future but, at least, I have my record saved here

I don't know who is the biggest merit source at the moment, but it looks like you had an upgrade from the initial Merit source status you used to be. Suchmoon seems to have toned down a bit from initial status. It will be interesting to see who will hit the 10K mark first after the "mighty bot" LoyceV 

Thanks.  If I wanted to rack up merits fast, I would stick to the technical forum; I am sometimes unpopular in the Wall Observer.  (And I abandoned this account for almost three weeks in May; it did not take 39 days of active posting to reach 222 merits.)

I prefer to stop using forum accounts when their rank gets too high.  Boring.  An account is ruined if it accidentally reaches Legendary rank, IMO.

I like the 222 number.  Wanted to record it.  Otherwise, I don’t much care about forum merits.  OTOH, I treasure the +50 merits that I received from an OG account for saying I think that the altcoin bounties section should be deleted, and paid signatures should be banned.  That shocked me, in a pleasant way; I want to print it out and hang it on my wall!  It means much to me, even though I’ve been friends with some CMs in the past.

Those who say it’s “hard to earn merits” need to stop focusing on the merit number, and start caring about doing something meritable.  The problem is analogous to incels who try to search for the secret of attracting women.  If you need an Internet guide on how to become more manipulative so that you can get laid, then you are a loser; you rightly deserve to be a desperate lifelong virgin.  If you are worried about your forum merits, then you deserve no merits; you will struggle for every merit.  If you are desirable and self-confident, then the rest follows naturally.

Care about Bitcoin, learn about Bitcoin, build your Bitcoin skills—live, eat, and breathe Bitcoin.  Be passionate about Bitcoin.  Soon, you will be swimming in merits—and you will not care, because you will be too busy caring about Bitcoin.

Take it easy!!!

Before that, you'll still have the 5555. 
And the 6000 will also be beautiful to look at! 

I just noticed your post, as I hadn't visited this thread in some time.  So you're the club leader now?  Damn, yo.  You deserve all the merits you've earned, but you've set such a high bar for anybody looking to dethrone the merit king.  Compared to you my merit count is shit!

I'll be back if and when my merit count hits 6666.  Might be a year or two, but that's my next milestone.

Edit:

Thank you both, I appreciate it.  I try to do my best as a merit source.  It's not a paid position, but I believe in the system as a mechanism to curb shitposting and account farming and I believe it's helped significantly since 2018.  Helping worthy members (like both of you) to rank up is rewarding to me, and the gestures of gratitude are just a bonus. 

But yeah, it'll be quite some time before I hit 10,000 merits.  The merit system has been around for over 4 years now if I've got my math right, and I'm just over halfway there.  That's OK, though.  I wouldn't mind if I never received another merit, ever.

Congratulations to you mate for achieving 222 merits within one month and a few days for another user here in forum that's a big amount of merits to earn within a few days but you surpassed and easily reach. Looking at your merit history it's seems that you will be the part of WO threads an gain many merits there. Once again congratulations on your milestone and good luck for your journey keep it up.

Congratulations to you on achieving this merit record and being junior member with registering on the forum just 39 days and having 222 merits is really appreciable and motivational for others.I am happy to see members like you growing fast on the forum and example for others who say it's hard to earn merits.

Just 14 merits left for senior member but you lag lot of activity for the same and if this pace continues you will see yourself on the list of fast growing members on the forum.

555 is a good number there
In my area a number like this is analogous to good energy and is also known as an angel number which has a positive meaning as it is preparing you for some big changes, which you may soon undergo. Hopefully this number will be lucky and make you better at doing something big mate.

222 merits archived with 333...333.3:

I took a screenshot... eh, haste/hassle, may edit this later to add screenshot.

On a related note, I made what was originally post #617777 in the Wall Observer.  Deletion of some earlier post moved it to #617776; tadamichi now has WO #617777 for his kindly well-wishes (archived).  (I hope that this post does not incite a slew of deletions from WO to try to grab that number.)

My lucky #617777 can be seen here:

Here is the (not-so-)lucky post, made when BTC was breaking $24k on the way down:

P.S., JayJuanGee, if I always had such lucky numbers, perhaps I would consider becoming a gambler.

I don't know if he kept it or not but with a record 7800 it's pretty good to keep as well.
8000 merit at least for Ratimov does not take long maybe shorter time.

Two merit notes from my ChipMixer participant have saved the screenshots.
nc50lc 3333 merits the same number even this is hard to catch.
OmegaStarScream 3900 merit is a good record too next 4000 to look at.

I think he missed the mark of 7777 merits to save his record here but there is one more recent merit record of flash @Ratimov that I want to save here :



Congratulations to him for marking another merit milestone of 7800 merits on the forum within short span of time with his effective contributions on the forum and now his 8k merit club is not too far and you will see it.

I also keep the same 2500 merit @odolvlobo record as the OP's.
Another one of the staff of @gmaxwell 6200 merit the record that I caught just now.

Next, @Ratimov, who will reach 7777 is the Jackpot number which is more than one.

First of all congratulations to the thread creator @bullrun2020 with 2500 merits on his profile and now he also have another record saved here so his next mark is now locked for another mark.

Also good to have our flash @Ratimov back with another cool merit record for one of the known member on the forum.Hope you keep this pace man.

Also one more merit record by me and one merit source giving out constantly on the economic board of the forum is @paxmao with 1414 same doublers merit record on his profile



Good to see many records being share on this thread and it's going the way it supposed to be.

This is what the bear market feels like. 

Unfortunately, I was not able to screenshot my 2500 merit milestone either.
