Now OgNasty is rated first in this TOP-200. Cool

Many hours of reading newbie posts trying to find legitimate posters. It’s a (mostly) thankless job, but I’m glad to help new users feel appreciated and improve their bitcointalk experience.

Actually, that's very true. Hard to find really quality posts from newbies.
Need to spend time reading different sections just to find one.
I for one, didn't ask to be a merit source but I'm also grateful to be a part of it.
One way to give back to the forum is to have this "thankless" job.
We learn a lot about crypto, in all of its facets, as well as improving the forum.

I am also glad that a trusted member like you here in the community still finds time to hunt merit worthy post hidden by big piles of dump. I know that you have other things to do in the forum but I am surprised that you are in the top 20 merit senders of all time, it shows that you are also contributing in the forum in other ways and it is really helping a lot of newbies who have received merits from you, as from what I see it is one of their motivators on their attempts on creating good quality post

My post on the first page has been updated again. I also published monthly statistics for September 2018.

The new 317 newbies have become Jr. Members this week. In my opinion, FinFx looks suspicious.

I'm glad you're updating it, because I like this thread.  What I'd like even better is if I was higher on the list, but it's been so damn difficult to find newbies worth meriting--or even a lot of members of ranks below Sr. Member.

I'm glad to know that my thread is useful. Smiley

re:I'm banned please help me (04/10/2018)
re:Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion (02/02/2018)

There are likely more that are now Jr. Members, but I only checked those that are still Newbies.

I see in my full TOP that LFC_Bitcoin supported 1 newbie. He is not shown in this TOP-200.

Maybe I need to stop being prejudiced against them & start looking a little deeper into Newbie’s posts & find some worthy of Meriting.
Sounds like a good idea.  The problem is that most of the time when you look at the average Newbie's post history, it's full of garbage posts with nothing even close to being merit-worthy. 

I try my best not to be prejudiced against low-ranked members, but it's hard because I've come to expect most of them to be typical bounty spammers, which is true in most cases.  But I have no problem whatsoever giving merits to Newbies, Jr. Members, or anyone else as long as the post is well-written and interesting.

On the other hand, when I see a post made by a newbie in Meta that has anything to do with merits or suggestions about improving the forum, I instantly assume they're just trying to earn merit.  That particular prejudice is justified, IMO.

And that's why I require earned* Merit on top of rank if I get to run a signature campaign.

*I check if it's earned or traded.

I agree with you. There are so many high ranked members who didn't earn any merit. In my opinion, this is abnormal if a user has not made a useful post worthy of giving merits for 9 months.

The next logical step to take would be to only allow Sr. Members and above to participate in signature campaigns
I've seen a few members with lower ranks that I'd instantly accept into a campaign. What you're suggesting would also restrict the (few) good users, and I don't think theymos will do that.
I think it's safe to say almost all low ranking users who earned 35 Merit make much better posts than Sr. Members and up who barely earned any Merit. And that's why I require earned* Merit on top of rank if I get to run a signature campaign.

We'll see how this all works out.  Theymos is slow to make changes, and he's being prudent by being that way.
At least there's a 1 Merit (or Copper Member) minimum now to join a signature campaign. It's a start Smiley

Yep.  The next logical step to take would be to only allow Sr. Members and above to participate in signature campaigns, and there have already been some campaigns by reputable managers who've started doing this already.  Jr. Members would still be allowed to spam social media for their bounties, but that wouldn't add to the spam on bitcointalk--or at least it'd be contained in the altcoin bounty section where it belongs.

There is a lot of love for quality new members. It's the spambies that are the ones that the rules are intended to control. I suspect a lot of the 150-200 are spambies promoted by their alts and sponsors. I think the good news is that the new rules highlight these members and their puppet masters. If there are too many, then the next stage will have to be sig removal for juniors.

The site needs quality posts because it is really needed for a better advertising of products and or projects. And so many are just spamming and giving off merits to their alts just to rank it up. I think this system could probably go up in time where juniors will really be stripped off of their signature. And certainly this will help clean the system of newbies and juniors who are not really making good post. I think it will be good to see higher ranking forum member's posts in the site so that they can act as a good example.

Nay. To keep making the forum stricter is a good idea. The system of the forum already handled that. It takes a lot to become a member. The ad already appropriated rewards to users depending on their ranks. That’s enough. If you want more rewards you do more.

I think that was a good decision for some high ranking member to show compassion to those who really deserve to acquire even for 1 merit. <…>
Compassion should not be part of the equation. Merit is not awarded on a compassion basis, but rather on the post’s content and, increasingly so (and even more now days), the poster’s posting history track. The main problem may reside in finding those to merit, and not being put-off in the process by those other posts that make your eyes sour. That is probably the main challenge of the non-merited with decent posts on their back: being spotted among all the large amount of non-contributive posts.

I think that was a good decision for some high ranking member to show compassion to those who really deserve to acquire even for 1 merit. Though, the rules are rules and we need to follow it as this has it's purpose that could change and improve the forum to be more free from spammers. I believe that by continuing the effort in contributing good informative post could harvest a merit reward unexpectedly. Just keep in doing what you believe in, for there will be time for you to be rewarded with your hardwork.
