Yep

‘There is no point in hoarding sMerit; keeping it yourself does not benefit you, and we reserve the right to decay unused sMerit in the future’.

This list might be useful for someone looking for a burn merit user.

I guess each of them has a story.
Some probably are here for one thing and one thing only (a specific thread or section, managing campaigns, mining...).
Exemples: Sylon is a BM, he probably received a few merits from ass kissers (or not) but doesn't feel like he owes anything to anyone (why would he ?).
goatpig got his last merits in the Armory thread. I guess he has a link to it and doesn't really care about the rest of the forum.
Oh and yes Roach is just an asshole, probably the alt of another asshole.

OP, Are you sure about romanornr ? It seems like he's sent a few merits already.

Well this is just damn, fucking disrespectful not making an effort to look around for posts deemed Merit worthy after being given Merit yourself.

I checked the first user on your list, and he has sent Merit recently.

I'd like to make full list now

realr0ach is currently a silver bug (he prefers silver over gold) who thinks cryptocurrency as a whole is a bunch of crap. Lately, he hangs out in the WO thread. I doubt that he will ever give out any merit to anyone. You'd have better luck getting a merit out of Proudhon.

It's probably this reason.  Personally I would advise you to not do anything in the way of contacting them, because it's their business what they want to do (or not do) with their sMerits.  Members aren't required to send anyone merits if they don't want to, and I know of at least 2 members off the top of my head who just don't participate in the system (gameristo and TheButterZone).  I would assume they're aware of the system but they probably just choose not to use it.

Since seeing Coin-1 thread about [TOP-200] Members who have a lot of earned sMerits I was interested to make a list of those members from that list who are active on the forum but have not sent a single merit to anyone.
I took into consideration members who have logged in and posted with their accounts since 1st November 2018. The list could have been longer since there were many members who have used their accounts in the months before November but I wanted it to be no longer than 3 months. There were also several members who are red tagged and I didn't take those into consideration either.

I checked every single account to make sure when the member was last active and his lasts posts. I then compared all the user accounts with bpip to make sure that none of them have been banned.

Based on all that here is the list of Top 200 Active Members who have earned most Merits but have sent 0 sMerits to other users. The list is based on the data provided by Coin-1 in the above mentioned thread.



Now to the 2nd part.
I am curious as to why these members have not sent a single merit to other users since the introduction of the merit system. They are active on the forum, reading and posting and have received 1000s of merits.

I can think of a couple of reasons:
1. They dont care about receiving/sending Merits at all and dont want to be part of it.
2. They dont understand how the Merit system works, thinking every time they send a merit, their count will decrease by one.
3. They cant find/dont think there is anything worth meriting.
4. They are afraid of sending Merits since there are many abuses and dont want to get on someone's radar.
  
And the list can go on for ever... I was even thinking of PMing the users from the list, but dont know what the official policy is about that. I am not a member of the administration and maybe it could be seen as PM spamming/harassing so I am not going to do that for now.
