Topic: supply of merit - page 2. (Read 588 times)
The quality of posting is/should be the main factor influencing the generation of sMerits. Merit sources have their awards replaced in 30 days, and every sMerit awarded creates the potential for almost another complete new sMerit. If post quality is low, then awarders will not be giving out as many sMerits, and the merit growth will slow. So, if you want more merits in the system, the answer is simple, increase the number of interesting and useful posts and threads. This will encourage the awarders to be more generous, and it will improve the quality of the boards.
1. What is the total supply of merit
There is not total supply, merit is not crypto 
New smerits (sent-able merit) are generated each month, they are given to merit source ( most active members, must have some quality required). They ( merit source) will give merit to quality posts.

If you want to be a merit source:
1. Be a somewhat established member.
2. Collect TEN posts written in the last couple of months by other people that have not received nearly enough merit for how good they are, and post quotes for them all in a new Meta thread. The point of this is to demonstrate your ability to give out merit usefully.
3. We will take a look at your history and maybe make you a source.

Here is a good dashboard where you can check all kinds of statistics for Merit.

maybe this is a silly question, but I am really curious, I searched the search site not to find an answer, maybe I should ask all the members in the right forum
