It is more difficult to get merit here. Of course, if enough is enough, it is still possible.
Seriously writing a post, or seriously answering other people's questions, there are opportunities.

Hello, I am a beginner, I tried to invest in crypto for the first time a few days ago, now I am learning everything about crypto and forums.
I can learn a lot here, and people look very friendly and helpful. But there are a lot of rules here. What Merit is. why do I need it, what does it mean?
What is merit source? Do you have unlimited merit? I want to know how to get your reward?
Don't get me wrong, I am not begging, I know that begging is not allowed here. I just want to know clearly what I should do in the future, thank you.
Just keep doing what you are doing. You already have received 10 merits from different sources / topics,so you are doing something right. There is no real magic thing in how to receive magic.

Merits are not necessary given only to long expansive novel like posts.  They can be given to posts that are short and funny.  Just enjoy the forum and post when you have something to contribute.  Don’t let the lack of merits bother you.  I’m one is the prime examples.  Lol.  Cheers!

Giving merit is a discretion to the one who gave willingly to a post even if it means like a garbage posts. You can get it if you have made soke.strong connections with those higher ranks that has lots of merits to give. They can probably help you in that matter.

However, most of the time merits are given by the merit source to a post which takes time to make and has put some.efforts in the post. You can check threads that are getting couple of merits in the meta section.

Ok, I admit I was curious as to who you were talking about, and encountered 66 potential cases (narrowed down scope to September 2018 onwards), although I got a feeling you are talking about some post or other on the Wall Observer thread.

The candidates I found were:

There are all sorts of cases on the list of recent 20 sMerit TXs, but all in all, the number is not large on the whole, so looking at it from the big picture, there are not many 20 sMerit TXs that qualify as merit abuse.

...

You should bear in mind that the merit system is not regulated. And users can give as much merits as they wish to a post they deem worthy. Except it can be proven that there is a trade or boost of personal accounts, nothing can be done by the mods.

This is so as not to scare ither members from giving out merits, which does not in any way favour them. And it can lead to hoard of merits.
Also you should freely link the profile, other members might be able to scrutinize it.

Value are not measured in the length of the reply. I can ask a question like this, "Where can I see the average price of Bitcoin" and someone can only post a link to a site that gives me that solution and I could feel that it added value to the conversation. The person could have replied with a small list of sites and I would have awarded him with merit for his contribution.

Some people are seriously confused when it comes to constructive posting and they think people should be given merit if they are posting a "Wall of text" and that rarely happens.  Roll Eyes

People will give merit because it helps them personally, not necessarily one that is helpful for all. You can try posting something useful on an ann thread of a particular coin, then a supporter might send you a merit

Sorry if I said anything wrong

First of all, I do not understand a thing. That is why many people are getting merits even after creating small unhelpful post or thread and many people are not able to achieve any merit even by creating a lot of useful topic? Why is this all happening? So, did any others big rank members helping them? For example, you can visit my profile. I have posted several articles for the benefit of others. But I do not see much view in my posts. But if someone posts a bounty or airdrop, then there is no lack of view. Is there no value of free knowledge? I don't care about myself. There are many brothers in this forum who have not got any merits even by creating a good article. Is not their work disrespecting them? And another important aspect is noticeable. That is, if a legendary or hero member gives a reply with one or two line, then he gets merits. Does low level members feel bad for this? This is not just about me, it is the disappointment of all members of the lower level.

You can punish me if I've said something wrong and I will not feel bad about it. Because I'm not afraid to tell the truth.

IS it true? How can one don't post any useful topic and still receive merit? It is unfair.

There is something else besides the good posts.
If you build yourself a reputation of helpful person, sometimes you get merit for posts that are not so helpful but people can easily recognize you.
The difficulty for the newbies is to build up a positive reputation. Often those who are after the merit fail,because all their posts are to hunt merit and it's easy to get exposed as a merit hunter and their reputation is over.

So try to be a genuine user, don't chase the merit nor ranking, build yourself a positive reputation then the community will accept you.

Really, it is not that difficult to simply create decent enough content to get 1 merit.


It s not difficult at all, and one merit should not be a Target for a member as they are liable to return to spamming after achieving that and being able to wear signatures.
It should rather be seen as a detteremt to spam the forum, bearing in mind that more restrictions could be implemented (although Theymos has expressed that he doesn't plan for n making the forum unfavourable for newbies)

Correct me if i am wrong but i am thinking whether they can buy merit by money?
Being it not a meritorious way of getting merit, some people do take this path. There are likely quite a lot of scams related to this too, and if you get caught openly, your account (and the seller’s) could end-up being red-tagged at some point, with all that this entails. Really, it is not that difficult to simply create decent enough content to get 1 merit.

IS it true? How can one don't post any useful topic and still receive merit? It is unfair.
More likely than not, merited posts will kind of deserve it, but merit is subjective, and as such, diverse in criteria and not immune from abuse to some extent. It’s better to take a look at the norm, and not the exceptions, in order to get a grasp at the sort of posts that are merited around.

That is (unfortunately) almost a certainty... Undecided

I dare say, that given the "value" that merit seems to hold for a lot of people since the requirements were added... there are more than likely folks looking to make easy $$$ from it... and folks desperate enough to pay. A simple Google search would confirm as much.

I believe that the term 'useful' is relative and changes from person to person. If something is useful for me then it doesn't mean that it should be useful to you too. I agree that it will take time to inculcate the habit of giving merits but that doesn't mean everyone should contribute considering that thing in mind. I believe that if my contribution is helping even a single person then it is a good day for me and gives me a feeling of satisfaction. Everyone has his own views regarding merits but one should never stop sharing his knowledge in the best possible way.
Yes, you're right. the term " useful" depend on the definition of each person, you may find it is useless but for other, it has the usage. Who knows? I believe that they have their own reason when they do that.
