No no no... C'mon man, I already said that it was a joke. It didn't happen. The original post by theymos is here. Look at the merits. They are the same. I just edited the text in my browser.

Why would you expect reading comprehension from merit beggars... you can see it's only RANK on their mind, fuck post content.

and that is why there are threads that exist just to give merit to unmerited quality posts to give other members a chance to receive merit for the quality post they made that had been ignored.
But those threads are rarely used by the members because not much merit sources are active there or they have different standards while giving merits to a post. FIrst of all we have to start giving merits than expecting merits sources to do that or else there won't be any circulation of merits. Cheesy

Hello...

I have a question which concerned to merit? I came to notice that we have lots of newbies who are trying very hard to get merits here on this BITCOINTALK forum. With lots great topics that contributes and also supports to put this forum in a great shape in future. I believe legendary is the final rank on this forum Right?

Now what is the difference for a legendary to MERIT another legendary who is already a legendary RANKER on this forum, same goes to other SAME Rankers on the forum.

This alone I believe makes few low rank members in the forum ask this questions in their thoughts.

Please your REASONS for this welcomed...

Why does a legendary member need merit?

Reasons for not getting merits includes:
•Low quality content - Do more research on what you post on the forum, the more information you acquire the more your post quality improves
•Posting in Spam mega threads - avoid threads which contain repetitive answers which are made just to increase post count
•Board preference - some boards receive more merit than others, mostly due to spam which drives smerit holders away and also makes it difficult to find quality post.

Does NOT include;
•Legendary members getting merited

Accounts don't need merits, it's given to quality posts which are merit worthy, regardless of the rank of the user. This should be a non-issue as legendary accounts getting merits does not in any way reduce the merits available for lower ranks, there are sources who have their smerits replenished regularly and users with unused smerits who are willing to spend them; meaning merits are always available for users who contribute constructively to discussions.

Thank you.

So, legendary members do not need merits. It appears that merit was implemented to prevent poor quality accounts ranking up.
IOW to ensure members can only rank up their accounts if other members perceive their posts to provide some kind of value " good post"

So, if you have ranked up to legendary there is no need for merit.

You can also look this picture, it's clear @theymos ( one of legendary member ) didn't want to get merit



This picture is the most crazy one I saw, theymos was even against the merits but instead they all turned it to some sort of fun. I believe it was due to the anniversary celebration which there was no means to appreciate him rather than sending those Merits which he never wanted.

Who a legendary member say that? Can you give the example of legendary member ask about merit?

You should read all user post in a thread before start to post, many member have answer it about this

"Merit are not given from a ranks of a user, but merit are given from a quality post"

The whole pupose of Merit system is to reward user who have been able to help a member of the community. It was implemented to remove quantity posting  and increase quality posting.

There have been instances where some members have tried to manipulate the Merit system but, they were banned for life from this forum. So, avoid such tactics as it will only hurt you.

It is hard to get those Merits but it becomes easy if you create quality thread and help others.

If a very rich person comes and helps you fix your car, it's your duty to pay him irrespective of his net worth. So when giving out merits, merit senders should look at the quality of the post and not how much merit that person already has. When someone's already legendary, it also plays a big psychological role to see their posts with more focus than it would be for newbies but this psychological bias should be kept away when judging a post to see if it deserves merit or not Smiley

No surprise why Merit Sources are always "dry" before their quota refresh Grin

Some merit fonts claim they have to shower some users with dozens or even scores of merits is because they can't find worthy posts (and then will hand out barelly one or two to others in the same instance).  If these merit fonts can't find worthy posts, then my advice to them would be that they don't disproportionately gift merits to the few posts they do merit.

Quote
Sending Merits to theymos should be a ban-able offence.

It should also be that if you are a merit font then you are excluded from receiving merits, or, receive no more than one per day per UID while you are in that role.

Oh, I should clarify: that's a joke. I edited the text in my browser to make it say that. The other 2 pictures were also jokes.

Yes, for now Legendary is the final rank but that doesn't mean they don't deserve or need any merits as there is a petition for the next rank already, something like Lambo !

I see, most of the merit sources probably complaining about not getting HQ posts from newbies around here to merit, which I would agree with in some cases.

I wonder same at times, it's much like real world economy where rich gets richer and poor stays poorer.
Best and accurate sentence so far. +1, which left me with a solo merit to keep the +merit box open!
I will not say that 100% of merit sources or other members are doing this but since the merit system was implemented there was so many trafficking starting from the guys sending +50 merit to their alts, friends between them for stupid comments...
Actually what I notice is the probability to be merited increase with how famous you are in the first place then how substantial your post is. For example if theymos makes a post about a new forum feature, he may receive for it a total of +50 merit, while if any other staff member announced it, he may receive less than 30. Same applies for other members. No?

This is exactly what am driving at, I have come across such accounts on bitcointalk here where it has not even up to 20 activities but has already gotten up full member rank at a Go... My opinion here is theymos should try to rebrand Bitcointalk with few changes.

Because they think that there will be a new rank in the future so they are working for it and getting enough merits in reserve to get rankup when it will get implemented by admin. Cheesy

Merit is not moderated and anyone can merit any post, so there is no strict guidelines as well so merits are awarded for the quality post which maybe helpful for the others.So no matter who is creating good post will get merits.

Rank is not the basis why a user will merit to whoever they want to sent it to. The purpose is to send merit to those who post constructively or helpful post that is not plagiarized or no preferences.. Some forum users posted on threads or created a thread themselves but the content they posted is not theirs or simply copy paste that's why it needs some time to do some research if the post is a copy paste or own content. I'm sure you know that some people only copy paste and some share some information on other sites with link included where they found it.

Congratulations, you have just discovered the "Matthew effect". But just like almost other people, you also commited it. My post was just 2 posts below libert19's post, mentioning the effect. You missed it because I'm just Jr. member ranked, right?
