i have more then 50 posts here, but still got zero merit. I tried my best to write replies that can help other people and also me in acquiring merit but no success. is there any strategy that can help me getting merit Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: Rockstar1 on March 10, 2018, 07:32:58 AM Man, your last 20 posts are 3-liners. I'm not saying you need to write longer, but with the way you write... then you need to write longer.
Most of what you're adding isn't substantial... except for htat post about a CEO. But yeah, either you have to post more substantial things in shorter words... or u just need to post longer posts Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: bitperson on March 10, 2018, 07:46:06 AM i have more then 50 posts here, but still got zero merit. I tried my best to write replies that can help other people and also me in acquiring merit but no success. Merit is awarded for posts that the meritor considers to be of high quality. As merit is somewhat scarce, especially for those of us who aren’t merit sources, you could even say ‘exceptional quality’. That’s why it’s normal for a beginner to not receive much merit. Don’t worry. It would probably be good ‘strategy’ to not excessively chase merit (or activity!) but to read and contribute for learning and for fun.is there any strategy that can help me getting merit Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: bilal_jan321 on March 10, 2018, 07:46:43 AM Man, your last 20 posts are 3-liners.

Only moderators have that right? Bro i am only chasing the merit, since i wont go up to 'member' level if i have atleast 10 merit Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: man22555 on March 10, 2018, 08:55:09 AM The new system just sucks. It all relies on the merit sources and if they "feel" they want to award you.
Merits shall be given after an objective, not subjective rating! As said before, try to post long, substantial posts. You might consider opening a new attracting topic as well. Search for topics that attract high ranked members, since newbies can't merit you. Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: bitperson on March 10, 2018, 09:12:12 AM who has the right here to give merits to members. Only moderators have that right? I’m sorry, but I think you’re going about this all the wrong way. You haven’t even taken the trouble to find out how merits work, even though they are one of the most discussed topics here. How do you propose to contribute to the forum at all, much less create posts worthy of merit, if you don’t have a clue and are unable or unwilling to use the clue server that is right in front of you?Bro i am only chasing the merit, since i wont go up to 'member' level if i have atleast 10 merit In case someone has told you that there is easy money to be made here by just posting random crap: sorry, your information is outdated. Merit changed all that. You won’t make a cent here unless you take the trouble of first learning a lot and then applying that knowledge in a way that other users consider useful enough to merit. Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: Thefrolly on March 10, 2018, 09:13:45 AM Merit isn't something that you get based on your post count. Its something that you will get if someone finds your posts helpful. Just cause you made 50 posts doesn't means that you deserve merit.

Bro i am only chasing the merit, since i wont go up to 'member' level if i have atleast 10 merit Quite a few members have sMerits to award. I've got a load for example. I'm tempted to put you on ignore so that you will never reeceive merit from me, but you've got me in a good mood, so here is some advice. Don't chase merit or rank increases. Bitcoin Talk doesn't need members who appear to be here just to exploit the forum to scratch a bit of extra cash. Instead of banging out posts as quickly as you can, re-read your typing before you hit the post button. Then read the created post and edit it if you see any typing errors. A post that flows comfortably for the reader is more likely to gain merits than one with missing letters and spaces. Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: Chuokie on March 10, 2018, 10:01:18 AM Just imagine a person with 200 posts but they didn't get any merit themselves? Haha that how funny the merit is. One more fact is that merit is not regenerated after months if you gave them you will have a bounce-back point but that's it you won't generate it after you gave that's why people are holding it dearly. No one will just give you their merit out of pity you know,

No one will just give you their merit out of pity you know, I think you misunderstand the merit system. When merit was introduced, I was given 500 merits so that I could keep my hero ranking. I was also given a block of sMerit to award to posters as I see fit. I have been awarded 224 merit points for posting, and this has generated a further 112 sMerit that I am able to award to encourage good posting. I have given out over 150 merit points ( mainly in singles ), and I still have more to award. There is not shortage of merits to be awarded, but there is a shortage of meritable posts. Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: iuhninh on March 10, 2018, 10:26:42 AM The fact is most of your posts in ANN (Altcoins) and one-line or a little longer threads, which not recommended. Threads in Beginners and help child board look longer but not really high quality and useful/ helpful. You should keep contributing with higher quality posts, then merits will come.

I tried my best to write replies that can help other people and also me in acquiring merit but no success. is there any strategy that can help me getting merit It is not about the number of posts, but about the quality of your posts. Increase the quality to the point where someone with merit feels it adds real value and I am sure you will have some merit to show in no time. It is not easy, but certainly worth the effort. Give it a shot. Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: aervin11 on March 10, 2018, 03:04:43 PM It's not about the quantity but the quality of your posts. Even when you ask all the HERO/LEGENDARY Members here, they would just tell you that post like Nullius. When you can't post like him, better leave bitcointalk. I mean we can all get merits if we just put an effort like thinking and getting a PhD. WE ALL CAN POST WELL and get merit. PhD, I will get you for merits, I promise ;D
Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: HabBear on March 10, 2018, 03:05:11 PM i have more then 50 posts here, but still got zero merit. Stop thinking about the numbers. Merit isn't earned through numbers, it's earned through content.I tried my best to write replies that can help other people and also me in acquiring merit but no success. I've looked at your posts, if that's your best then your best isn't good enough...yet. Two to three sentence answers won't earn you merit. You need to actually write some constructive thoughts, not just a simple answer to an easy questions. Push the discussion forward by introducing new thoughts or perspectives. Dis there any strategy that can help me getting merit There are lots of strategies, here are a few:
Good luck to you, keep asking questions.

I am sure that you will not get any merit. No one give you merits for shit-show. That's the fact in the forum after launch of merit system.Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: mohieddine on March 10, 2018, 04:08:14 PM do not worry Share useful topics and do not forget to mention their source Help the beginner Do not look at points of merit Because the points are not related to the number of posts I wish you success ;) ;D Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: yuzuki.dtn on March 11, 2018, 10:36:55 AM hello

No one will just give you their merit out of pity you know, That would be because quantity is irrelevant. It's quality that you want. People don't get incentives for holding their sMerits either, but they don't get anything for spending them as well, so there are people who don't bother. One thing's for sure though, this has definitely quashed account farming and spam, which was the intention in the first place. I agree that it kind of sucks for newbies because of how arbitrary it is though, with every single person having different opinions on handing out their sMerits. theymos has already expressed willingness in revamping the system if need be, though, so we'll see how it goes.

Today you have to write really good posts so you deserve a "Brexit". but the forum is because we exchange information and learn here about crypto. If you want to make a lot of money you have to work like many other people in real life

I tried my best to write replies that can help other people and also me in acquiring merit but no success. is there any strategy that can help me getting merit I think, its sync on me now, how merit affect user ranking and self motivation. Its been harder now to rank up, but in exchange of good quality post.I think you're in the right track, just a little patience. And maybe we need posting to help, not just post to gain merit. Simple but I guess its worth the effort. Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: Johnny Lgz on March 11, 2018, 07:30:27 PM Just go join bounty and do some tasks!! Earn from it, don't think too much on having merit it will not give you coins either.
Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: Velkro on March 11, 2018, 07:36:46 PM Merit isn't something that you get based on your post count. Its something that you will get if someone finds your posts helpful. Just cause you made 50 posts doesn't means that you deserve merit. Not only will someone find it helpful, but besides that, will also think about awarding you with something he could have little knowledge of :P. That is biggest problem here.Many people are grateful for help, but dont award merit to posts that helped them. Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: Geljames28 on March 13, 2018, 07:38:21 AM Having a merit does not depend on how many post's do you have, but it depends on the quality of our post. Our post must be high quality, informative, helpful and not to short. Just keep on trying and wait.
Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: Zlatangu on March 13, 2018, 10:48:49 AM Merit is like sex bro, if you think to much about it ,you wont get none.
Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: Ribbon1461 on March 13, 2018, 12:45:32 PM I think Merit only can be earned if our post are useful to others and can helps others.

Exactly, but it also depends on the meritor if they feel that they will give you one. So don't just beg for merits, you must have patience and work hard for it.Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: cryptocurrencybazaar on March 13, 2018, 01:18:16 PM hi For merit, you need to write the best informative posts. Just copy pasting articles or providing small replies won't help. You need to write detailed responses and hope that it will be noticed by someone who has Merits to give and find your post merit-worthy ;Di have more then 50 posts here, but still got zero merit. I tried my best to write replies that can help other people and also me in acquiring merit but no success. is there any strategy that can help me getting merit Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: Jet Cash on March 13, 2018, 03:11:51 PM Our post must be high quality, informative, helpful and not to short. Posts should be informative and not overly verbose. Make your point and justify it, but don't be repetitive. I've put more people on ignore for long arsed posts, than I have for posts that are too short. In fact I can't think of one that went on ignore for brevity. If you go on ignore, then you won't get any merit from me ever. Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: adamrich27 on March 13, 2018, 03:35:44 PM I am also a newbie here... But merit is not a concern for me...But if you are looking to get merit then you should look into the posts of the users with high merits here.... try to learn how to post replies to other posts.... How these meritorious people post replies to posts.... :) :)
Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: 1993jochico on March 13, 2018, 04:04:41 PM This is the reality, you can post quality content and helpful but in the other side you still dont get merits. This is why I always suggest that always make your post useful and helpful to others but never expect anything in return. I wrote it in this thread. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3058025.0
Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: Crypto_proxy on March 13, 2018, 04:21:34 PM As the name implies MERIT - The quality of being particularly good or worthy, especially so as to deserve praise or reward.
its not based on the number of post but the value(quality) you bring to people and the forum just try to add value(quality) to your post and make that your goal and in no time things would flow themselves; you would start getting Merit for the value you bring. Regards. Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: Hollister on March 17, 2018, 11:50:00 AM I saw users who write consistent quality posts with many good insights and got 1 freaking merit after 100 posts. And that is just one example. Users in the forum seem not to be actively using merits they have, everyone seems stuck.
Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: boyptc on March 17, 2018, 12:14:55 PM hi Most of your posts are into ANN thread which makes you have the low chance of getting merit.i have more then 50 posts here, but still got zero merit. I tried my best to write replies that can help other people and also me in acquiring merit but no success. Keep on trying mate, don't give up.is there any strategy that can help me getting merit Create a thread that is something new and informative.Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: Stedsm on March 17, 2018, 01:23:33 PM hi i have more then 50 posts here, but still got zero merit. I tried my best to write replies that can help other people and also me in acquiring merit but no success. is there any strategy that can help me getting merit - One-liner posts - Repititive posts saying almost the same thing - Repeating (most of) your own replies everywhere (in different threads) There's no strategy TBH. Merits are results of the hardwork people do to gain them. Don't think of merits just as a way to gain higher ranks here as that mindset will get you nothing but despair. Do it without any expectations and do it wisely. Try to put in more efforts and one day, you will achieve what you deserve. The only strategy to get merits is to keep working on yourself instead of blaming others. Before thinking negative about why others didn't give, think what you're doing wrong that's not getting you there. Try Meta (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=24.0)section of the forum to understand what you can do to get them (the place where people possibly get the most amount of merits for their honorific contribution), as well there are many good services already there that provide merits for better posts. But then, you need to change your way of posting. Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: xxlouisxx on March 17, 2018, 01:33:13 PM Your posts aren't quality or too short. I think it isn't useful to others and can helps others.
Good luck! Title: Re: more then 50 posts but still zero merit Post by: DziugasB on March 18, 2018, 03:37:36 AM You have to provide original content in order to get merit. And more educational than 3 liners.
