I just wanted to make the point that you can't really do a comparison of the numbers that ranked up yet as it takes 8.5 months to get the activity to get from Sr. to Hero we'll have to wait that long to get a fair measure.

To get a true picture, you would also need to include a breakdown for primary areas of interest. We have some members who are only active in certain areas such as technical, legal or speculation/statistics. I think they are valuable members of the community, but they are unlikely to increase rank at the same rate as members with more general interests. We also have the spammers, and alt promoters, and their 'nepotism' will allow them to remove ranking barriers at a faster rate than more worthy members.

Here is a breakdown of sMerit sent during the period going from 24/01/2018 through to 23/03/2018.

....

Note: MeritBefore may no be exactly before, since all dataset are not extracted on exactly the same date.

I don't understand this bit as the system was introduced on 24/1 shouldn't everybody's before number be equal to their rank? So all Sr. Members would have started at 250 etc.

I just wanted to make the point that you can't really do a comparison of the numbers that ranked up yet as it takes 8.5 months to get the activity to get from Sr. to Hero we'll have to wait that long to get a fair measure.

@OP,
Can you extrapolate from your data who or how many ranked up with the merit system?

Yes, i had it on my list of potential other information to derive...but I'm already getting this kind of look from people around me for forgetting them: Angry

I Included a new section at the top with a list of members that ranked up, and at the bottom of the post the names of the users of both Hero and Sr Members thar ranked up, with a reference to Copper Members that performed really well.

In summary:

Ranked-up Users

Backtracking the data, we can see who has ranked-up since the Merit Sytem was set in motion:

   0 Legendary
   4 Hero Members (from Sr. Member)
   18 Sr. Members (from Full Member)
   39 Full Members (from Member, 3 of them from lower ranks)
975 Members (from Jr Members or lower)

This can confirm what I wrote in the past, often high rank people don't even read what low rank people say. (Not everyone, of course!)
At decreasing of the rank for givers the merit for low rank people increase.
At the increasing of the rank for givers the merit for low rank people decrease.

Well, if he extrapolate that data, myself would be accounted to that data Grin

, but i dont know, i didnt ranked up yet, still waiting for my activity, but i have seen a lot of people ranking up since this merit system, some of them that i can remember are iasenko (going to full member from member) and TheQuin (going to hero member from senior member). So, merit rocks !

I've also ranked but I'm statistics fanatic and I asked if it was possible Wink

Where from such information? How many users participated in the calculation?
Poin 13. Merit Sent from Jr. Members. Who they send it to, I'm Jr. member, but I have no sMerits to send. It's is only I or what?

Chart 1 tells you how many users and merit transactions are considered in the Analysis. Look at the totals there. Basically, every user that had either sent or received at least one sMerit since it was put in motion.

You have 10 Merit, so therefore 5 sMerit. The thing is it does not appear on the user profile but you will see it by pressing the +merit link that appears on every post as Talk merit pointed out.

You should have 5, unless you have spent them. Have you clicked on the merit button? It's at the top right of any post.

My guess is that it is a full member account that was purchased after the merit air drop, and all the posts were deleted.

Yes thanks. Makes sense: He has 105 Merit (100 airdrop + 5 received). All posts deleted therefore Brand New rank.

I looked through your post history, and I gave you a couple of merits for your gambling post.

Aww, thanks. And I gave what I said I'd give to OP here.

I wasn't subtly begging for merit with my post in this thread, either. It's just that I've run out of sMerits and keep wanting to give them to people who make threads like this, that are nicely thought through and well-presented, and I just don't have the merits to give. It's not that I'm trying to keep the poor noob (or Member in this case) down--I'm really not able to give out more merit than I have, and that's the bottom line. I have a feeling that there are other people around here who are in the same boat. Can't give what you don't have, right?

Just FYI: That post I made in the gambling thread was more about addiction than gambling, and that's why I made it. I generally don't have a lot to say about real gambling and the mechanics thereof, since I don't partake in that vice--but I'm all too familiar with addiction. That whole thread caught my eye, and there are some crazy degenerate gamblers on bitcointalk who probably need some help in quitting. That'll ruin people and families just as easily as the current fentanyl-laced bags of heroin are doing.

I wonder who the brand new member was who managed to send 6 smerit to a senior member whilst he was still brand new.

Wonder no more.. Here is the answer to your question:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/nemya-1169572
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=merit;u=1169572

It does seem like a glitch though, since the user received only 5 Merit (2,5 sMerit therefore acumulated) in the 120 days prior to giving 6 sMerit away .. beats me.

Early on, in late January and early Febuary I think I gave most of my sMerits to higher-ranked members, though I didn't keep track and I haven't even looked. Lately, I've been trying to give sMerits out to lower-ranked members who really deserve it. The problem is that there are so few posts I see by Newbie-Member ranks that are worth meriting--but I have fairly high standards and only so much sMerit to give.

And dammit, some of the best posts are written by Hero-Legendary ranked members. There's no getting around that, in my opinion. Right now I'm totally out of sMerits, but if and when I get some I'll continue trying to reward the people who need to rank up. I try to avoid meriting Legendary members, but I have no problem sending sMerits to Heros. They need it as well.

Decent analysis, OP. I owe you a merit.

Although the numbers is small, this statistics prove that every rank in this forum got merits from each of ranks. I guess it will be increased in the future when we have more merit sources ( and i cannot wait for it to be happen). For OP, i give you an sMerits because i can not give much this time.

I looked all the way through that post, and I didn't see any tables about awards by Hero members.

Maybe your "this account's" browser can not open the no. 9 table specifically Grin

Point number 9 (9. Merit Sent from Hero Members. Who they send it to) is sMerit given by Hero Members to all other Ranks ..
