If you have to ask those things, I don't think you're very likely to earn Merit. But since you're not a total spammer, I'll bite. My answer is: "it depends" Tongue
The number of replies isn't very relevant (exception: spam megathreads), it depends on the quality of the posts.

If you want to earn Merit, create something useful that doesn't exist on the forum yet. Have a look at the Top-merited recent topics, read them (all of them!) and figure out why they are Merited.

You seem to post primarily in Speculation and Trading Discussion, and I'm not sure if those sections have a lot of merit sources looking at posts there.  In addition, there are a lot of shitposts there so if you make a good post it's likely that it's going to get buried under a mountain of idiotic shitposts within minutes--so your good post won't get seen, much less read or merited. 

It's been suggested many times here that posting in spammy sections lowers your chances of getting merited.  That's absolutely true.  A lot of the people who complain about not getting merits make most of their posts in Altcoin Discussion, Bitcoin Discussion, or Economics.  That's where the spammers go so their plagiarism and shitposts don't attract attention. 

Be careful about trying to get merits by posting in Meta.  A lot of the senior members are well aware that relative noobs are starting to post in this section, trying to earn merits.  Your thread here is basically another "how do I earn merits" thread, which really is not appreciated.  If you haven't figured out yet that you have to make interesting posts, there's not much anyone can do to help you.

...on topics that have 1-3 replies or topics that 6-10+ replies?...
I am gonna tell you the SECRET now but before I do that, I would like you to promise that you will not share this secret with anyone else except the visitors on this topic.

In addition to 1-3 and 6-10+, reply the topics which have exactly 0 and  4-5 replies too  Smiley

I've decided to take leveling up from Jr. memebr to member more seriously.

I want to know: Do I have a more likely chance of getting merit by posting on topics that have 1-3 replies or topics that 6-10+ replies? If some replies have already been merited, do I have a greater chance of getting merit by responding to that topic or not?

I know there aren't rules and these are generalizations, but any tips/tricks would be helpful. Just trying to maximize my efforts like everyone else.
