Topic: The huge amount of motivation MERIT give newbies - page 2. (Read 436 times)

and all the articles i copied and posted are sensible ones,and not all my post are copied and post just like this one you are commenting on now if you want to state out all my previous posts.as a newbie that i am in this forum am hear to learn and how do i learn is by your advice and direction.
I have no problem with your comments but with due respect the condemning word(shitposter) directed to me cause i posted about motivating newbies in the forum is totally absorb.

I said everything in my post. What do you call that you work hard? That you copy articles from the internet and post them here? Do you know that all users can use other sites besides this forum? Why bring here what can be read online?
You have to be unique in how you try to attract attention every day; but unfortunately, it's just it just copy-paste and further discussions off-topic.
And yes, I haven't called you a shit poster yet, but by the number of deleted posts and the way the moderators agree, you are this.

There can be some genuine members also who want to rank up but most of the percentage is for those who have been introduced to the forum as some earning source through campaigns which is why they are eager to rank up fast and earn merits overlooking the facts that it would also need quality posts so better focus on enhancing your knowledge for it.In the past B&H section was flooded with such merits earning and how to rank up threads and all of them have the same opinions.So don't know how they are coming up with such things when the main aim of forum is having healthy and knowledgeable discussions among members.

When the effort of a newbie is appreciated or found reasonable by any high-ranking member, they award merit to it. Regarding what you think and your question, newbies' efforts are always appreciated and encouraged with merit, but if you are not getting the merits, that's a clear notice to you that you are not putting in enough effort. So try hard and put more effort into your topics and comments. Create helpful topics with a good idea, give reasons why the idea is good to emulate, and give the disadvantages and advantages of it, and you may likely get merit; ask a very reasonable or genuine question, and you might get merits too. If you look very closely, you will see there are some newbies who already have above-average 5 or 10 merit. They obviously started with some good posts, and even before they started, it was not merit that motivated them; they first of all motivated themselves and created some good topics, which earned them merit.

So, motivate yourself and do quality work; don't wait for merit to motivate you, or else you might not get any merit any time soon.


LOL, don't take is personal, @Lovesmayfamilis is only scolding you, perhaps you can take it as a challenge upon your self to make a little push up on your post quality. He (@LMF) have not practically called you a shit poster yet, but I think your post is convincing him to conceive the thought to do so.

Cheers 🥂, Dr.Bitcoin_Strange👺👺

You receives merits not as a motivation for you to keep posting or doing well, which means if you don't receive merits you may drop down your performances, merits given where base on the indept of taughts from what you post on the receiving end from a member, which he thinks from his own point of view, your post deserves to be merited.


We have a large number of newbies posting each day and you can't expect all of them to be receiving merits at the same time, they quality of what they all post differs from each other, the taughts in their post also varies, that's why merit is not moderated, you work to earn it by the quality of what you do and also the reasons we have merits source, who merit quality posts generously, there are threads you could also apply for merit review if you think you post well but not noticed, there you stand a chance to be accepted as well or not base on their rules.

i beg your pardon mr am not a shitposter and am not pleading for you to give me merit,i know what i must to earn merit,as you can see the topic i posted is a significant one,as an expert that you are you should give advice to  newbies not using condemning words on me thanks.

How you regularly spam boards with posts not written by you but by copying articles and providing a short source from which the information was taken personally encourages me to rate you a "shitposter" that copies and pastes without adding anything new.
As long as you search the Internet and one site for articles without inserting any thoughts from yourself into your posts, you will have to expect merit for a very long time.
Admit it: how many deleted posts have you had since registration?

The natural beginner will come to the forum to learn and get answers. To rise or get merit points is not important if you want to learn, but the quality of your posts will increase and you will be keen on answering more than merits.
I see that what is happening now is the same influences on YouTube or Facebook, instead of creating good content to make profits from ads, they focus on what people want in order to get more likes, and after a while you will notice that the channel or page started with conflicting content and people began to stop following it.

Therefore, focus on learning and developing yourself, and merits will not be an incentive for you, because they will not mean much in return for the profit you get.

The desire for learning comes from receiving positive comments from forum users when you ask questions or participate in discussions. The forum is a learning platform, and when you deploy yourself to learning and making contributions here in the forum, you will be inspired by the knowledge you obtain.

Yes, merit is a motivator, but it should not be your primary goal right now. If you make merit hunting your primary goal, you will end up with fewer merits, but if you study and contribute to the forum, you will earn enough merits because merits are a reward for quality forum posting and contributions.

When a newbie asks a reasonable and educative question, they receive merit for it; similarly, when they post a quality post, higher-ranked members have nothing to do with their smerits other than sending them out to the post that was found worthy of being merited; thus, regardless of your rank, if your post is worthy, you will undoubtedly be merited.

Yeah, I remember I immediately noticed this avatar thing when I came here. Avatar is something very common among online platforms. I immediately wanted to wear one, too, but I couldn't find it in the settings. I later on realized it can only be worn by higher ranks.

Aside from those who are placing bids in the collectibles section, I don't think it is common among brand new users to make one post after another in just a matter of minutes. As far as PM limits is concerned, nobody probably came here to send PM to different users except those who came here to do business.

Earning merit for low rank account is easier than higher rank especially legendary because there's no point to give them merit except their post are really high quality. There are many threads to help low rank account to get merit as long as you post a high quality post. If you don't get any merit, then you should know what's the reason behind it.

Although you're correct, but the main reason it's not that, those newbie looking a way to earn merit fast and then join a signature campaign.

Sometimes it is just them searching stuff on google and finding the answers on this forum and ending up signing up here. The reason why they seek merits can also be because of the limits that are placed on a brand new account like having to wait 6 minutes (?) to post again, limits on who they can send PM to or how many, not having avatar, etc.

Either that, or the OP has other accounts on the already forum. He may also be part of a farm. The thing is, threads like this are not uncommon from people with great ideas about merit who haven't earned a single merit yet. And they seem to know that creating a thread especially in this section talking about merit can bring them benefits in the form of merits. The OP hasn't gotten it yet but let's wait a bit because it won't be uncommon for him to get some.

I wonder how newbies found out about this forum. Are many of them long-time lurkers before they finally signed up? It seems many of them arrived here with ideas on merit and ranking up already.

I used to read of newbies coming to the forum because somebody recommended them a place where Bitcoin is the main discussion and where knowledge could be gained.

If I remember it right, I got into this forum because of Primedice. That was during the earliest days of my Bitcoin encounter. There was no merit back then, but when I got here I never even thought of ranks. It was this curiosity that actually brought me here. Lately, I noticed that merit seems to be a topic among newbies already. I wonder how it becomes a motivation to somebody who has just arrived.

Merits are given out subjectively and aren't dependent on whether or not you are a newbie or legendary.  In some parts of the forum they are more a popularity contest than reward for good posts.

Merit givers hardly ever go looking for quality posts in the various campaigns etc.  Just be yourself and make quality posts.

This is why there are some merit sources that are offering post reviews for different users that for them is deserved to get merited for their high quality posts.
I don't think that these merit sources that are offering post reviews has a minimum rank required, so as long as you're posts are of with high quality (and not bounty reports), even you're a newbie you can still apply to them.

I often see some merit sources circling around different sections like Bitcoin Discussion, and they are distributing merits there. Those newbie ranked members in the past aren't newbies right now because for sure they ranked up already. Those who are ranked newbies as of this moment are either the ones who just registered a few days or a few weeks ago, or they are simply newbies who are posting bounty reports from their bounty campaigns.

More merit = more motivation? Hmmmmm I don't think that's always the case because even low ranked members can still contribute in their own ways. I'm pretty sure that these high ranked members that you are saying see those low ranked members out there, and they know which are contributing or not, and if they see that they're contributing, they will give merits to them.

The sole purpose of the forum is to acquire knowledge about bitcoin and possibly spread little knowledge they also have. The ranking is just a way to distinguish members on how well they most have contributed and also to gain the benefits from most of the incentives like the signature campaigns on the forum. Other than that the rank doesn’t measure or quantity your knowledge.

As regards your question it is not that senior members or even merit source are not acknowledging the work of newbies but most of the created threads by newbies this days are just recycling of previous posts and merit is meant to be shared to a post you found worthy or learn a new thing from.
Newbies can get merits from their contribution to the forum by answering questions or even ask relevant questions and not necessarily creating threads daily.

Currently getting merit is even easier currently if you are actually a quality poster, because they’re high ranking members that have threads you can submits posts or threads that you feel are worthy of merit to. And if they find it worthy it will be merited

As a newbie in this forum,the first thing in your mind in this forum is to learn and comprehend the rules and regulations of this forum.on the other hand still need to work very hard to implement significant thread and contributions to the forum.
 Going through all this process in learning and adapting to the policy of the forum,you(newbie) still have high expect ions to contribute immensely in the forum which also need motivation from the high ranking in the forum.
The more merit you got the more motivation you start generating which make you to strive more and more with your progress in the forum.

My question is are the high ranking acknowledging when a newbie is trying to deliver daily and how hard is it for them to reward such newbie with merit?
