So sad, it's seem merit source that help out in this thread no longer have any interest or have decided to go cold. after going through previous page of the thread it's seem active users that help out like @the cryptovator, yahoo62278, Ratimov and other merit source have abandoned the thread if not there are loads of applications that need merit and some of these folks are actually good posters too.
This thread was created not only for merit sources, but it's for everyone who have spendable Merit. Also there's no rules for x user must spend out all of his sMerit or kind of like that, if someone feel they didn't deserve, so...
Who's Ratimov? I never heard this username.
you forget to mention one user that also like to spread his sMerit, he's
Symmetrick although he claimed already dead, RIP.
