Essentially merits help you to rank up in the forum and to allow to forum to encourage users to make quality posts. You may be better off thinking about them as similar to an upvofe but there's a limited supply that users can give out. For every 2 merits you receive you'll get one merit you can send. There are also merit sources who get airdropped amendable merits. Title: Re: What is merit and why do some people have up to thousands?

A reward for hard work as per quality content creation or post that helps you grow in rank in this forum. Just like every reward, it is earned and not beg for! But then, for everyone you gain, it lives you with a part of it to send out. I see you've got one, keep up the good work. Title: Re: What is merit and why do some people have up to thousands?

Next time you are surprised by something about the forum, use the search option, you will find it at the top, type the word (Merit, Trust,..etc) and you will have a lot of discussions about it.You can also use Google to restrict the search for this forum using site:bitcointalk.org merit.

Post by: DdmrDdmr on August 12, 2020, 08:33:13 PM <…> The links provided on this thread are a good read on what you need to grasp concerning merits (and sMerits).Concerning the profiles you see with thousands of Merits, they have probably spent lots of time on the forum since the Merit System kicked-in, and created some kind of content through their multiple posts that was considered decent enough by others. You can look through the official Merit Stats (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=merit;stats) for a simple view on the most merited profiles and such. Bear in mind that when the Merit System kicked-in, on the 25/01/2018, profiles were airdropped an initial quantity of Merits, equivalent to the number of Merits required for the rank of each person at the time (0 Jr. Member – none required at that point in time - , 10 Member, 100 Full Member , ... , 1k merits for Legendary members). Some Heroes were awarded 1k Merits exceptionally. Note that the typical rookie misconception is that a profile with many Merits should have plenty "Merits to award" to others. After all, you see a large number of merits on their profile summary, so they must have plenty to hand out. That is not so. Remember (after reading through the referenced links in the prior posts) that Merits and sMerits are related but are not the same. A profile with 1k Merits on his profile could have no sMerits (left) to award. The Merit counter does not decrease (unless you are really naughty) – it’s the sMerit counter that decreases after you send sMerits to someone. i.e. - User A has 10 Merits and 2 sMerits. User B has 0 Merits and 0 sMerits. - User A sends 1 sMerit to User B. User A will now have 10 Merits and 1 sMerit left. User B will have 1 Merit and no sMerits to award (he has 0,5 virtual sMerits, but only integer figures are sendable). - User A sends 1 sMerit (again) to User B: User A will now have 10 Merits and 0 sMerit left. User B will have 2 Merits and 1 sMerits to award to others when he pleases. Title: Re: What is merit and why do some people have up to thousands?

Don't consider it as a reward since it's subjective. OP just needs to follow the forum rules, be polite to others, and post freely constructively without pressure or doing harm to others or to the whole forum itself. I just hope OP will read the links given to him. He is a bounty hunter based on his post history and in most of the cases, these people usually missed some updates about what's happening in the forum.

Title: Re: What is merit and why do some people have up to thousands? Post by: Assface16678 on August 13, 2020, 03:35:30 AM Merits are just a reflection of the number of a contribution right here on the forum it's a helpful threads contribution, not a monetary contribution that member has a lot of number of merits are some of them are the eldest right here because they are here for a long time and they shared a lot of information and helpful threads so the merits are the rewards
I don't want to get harsh but right most of the content of OP is all about bounty report if you still do this you cannot get any merit again because this only gives to the people who deserve and give a lot of time to share their information.

I remember when my profile are all consist of those reports. It took me a while to realize the forum greatness. I think its too early to judge bounty and airdrop hunters cause I see myself with them before. Some could actually changed but Im not expecting all of them would realize that.

Probably your inquiries are now been answered to be fact that some users are already given a helpful link which discuss about merits.For simple explanation, the amount of merits you have gained are the amount of times how you been useful in the forum. You could simply gain these merit through making a significant topic or discussion that could help other members. This merits can be also considered as regulation for ranking system the forum.

Post by: Maus0728 on August 13, 2020, 06:52:30 AM It's always fun for me to see these people who got lots of merits and tend to race between each other. It simply tells that they are one of the most active people that is helping and educating people in multiple ways or maybe just participating on a natural or high quality discussions in which they share information that may benefit a lot of people.

Help anyone in the forum who asks for help. 4. Bursting scam. What does it and how does it come? Merit is the recognition of your good work. Why is merit needed in the forum? 1. To rank up your profile. 2. To gain trust in the forum. The merit score of your profile will tell us how good the poster you are, how faithful you are. how does it come? When you make a post that deserves merit, the high rank members of the forum will give you merit. And for every two merits you earn, you can give one merit to others. However, if you send merit, the merit of your profile will not decrease. You can spend more and more time in the forum and gradually you will understand everything.

Concerning the quote above, it's not something you can deduce instantly by the merits the profile has. You have to consider that at the time when merits was introduced in January 2018, merits were airdropped to users only on their activity then, not quality (bear in mind that, some of those users have not earned any after that). Accounts also change hands sometimes; users farm accounts to high ranks to sell them to others who may/may not be quality posters. That being said, other than this, merit score can be used to come to your conclusion above 99% out of 100.Title: Re: What is merit and why do some people have up to thousands?

Problem is, to do so I have to disregard everything you wrote in the Alt board, included the POS>POW nonsense.

There are lots of subcultures on here and some of them are made up of nothing but accounts that were senior before the merit system arrived. Many never step outside their groups so you have people who started off with large amounts of merits they were airdropped batting that merit back and forth between each other. A lot of the stuff they merit each other for is in jokes or one liners, or simply agreeing with the point of view that's fashionable among them, that would never be merited outside that club.

It takes a hardship before you can acquire it like average posters like me. Anyway, I am okay with my current rank and does not wanted to rank up to higher ranks. I can get to use of it and happy that I am earning cents with the campaign I join.
Still if given a chance to rank up then yes sure why not. I can't just get enough merits like those quality posters did here in the forum.

A lot of the weirdest and most interesting stuff by far happens in the altcoin section. It's wading through the noise and hysteria that makes it an unbearable experience. That's one section that could really use a Reddit-style thread upvoting system to find the good content. But if you're committed to ranking up your account you need to limit the energy you put into it. It's a shame there isn't more possibility of reward in there for the good posts.

Post by: Cadaver20 on August 14, 2020, 06:21:08 PM I just got only 1 merit I don't know what it means and I see some profile with thousands of merits. What does it and how does it come? You joined this forum more than a year ago. But you do not know, what is merit? This is because you have spent most of the time in the forum in bounty section. You didn't spend much time outside the bounty section so you don't know what merit means. Merit is an indicator of a good quality post. This means that if you see some merit in a thread or a post, then you must understand that the post or thread must be of good quality. If you post good quality post then you will definitely earn merit. Now let's talk a little bit about what is sMerit (sendable merit). sMerit is the merit that you can send to others. If you get 1 merit, then your sMerit will be 0.5 which means half of the merit you will get will be added to your sMerit. However, you cannot send a fraction of 0.5, 1.5 such merit to others. You can only send the full number of merits (1, 2, 5 etc) to others. To see your Merit and sMerit Balance, visit.. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=merit.

And if you'll take time to read those links of threads posted before me, then you'll surely understand what it means. Just think of it as "likes" or "reacts" you get when posting something, like in social media. Though there are some things that merit-senders are looking for in a post before they give them one. Like the quality or relevance of the content. Giving merits is totally upon their discretion.
Some people have thousands because they were already in a high rank when the merit system began, then they continue to post good quality and relevant contents that other members find merit-worthy so they continue to gain merits.

Post by: ShowOff on August 17, 2020, 07:30:34 PM As you can see in the previous reply, this merit can be interpreted as a motivator for yourself to be able to post something of quality. The merit system was put in place because the admin had discovered that tens of ton of junk and worthless post kept flowing around here non-stop.
Thats why this system support anyone who post quality good. This system can limit spam poster from rank-up and will not prevent anyone from rank-up if they can make a good contribution to the forum. When you care about forum then other user will care about you. Useful writing has the potential to gain more merit for author recognition, and established Legendary member can generate more merit because they have better knowledge and experience than others. You can also do what they do if you want, hone your skill and knowledge and start now. You are granted merit from other members when creating content or a useful response to topics, and this merit helps you develop your account in the forum and when you are granted that reputation you can give other people half of this merit, for example if you get two, you can give one In my opinion this has been explained hundredsl of time by other, its just that beginner dont want to know because of their habit of rarely reading sticky thread.Title: Re: What is merit and why do some people have up to thousands?

But chill, don't stress yourself out (unless you're now hungry for csmpaigns) ;D. Don't get intimidated or jealous if you only got 2 and others have thoudands of merit. It doesn't justify that you're not productive here, the fact that you are slowly getting one by one already means a lot. I know that there's nothing wrong of developing your account here but seeking for self-improvement should be on the top of your priorities. Just continue learning and good luck!Title: Re: What is merit and why do some people have up to thousands? Post by: Kong Hey Pakboy on August 20, 2020, 10:07:22 AM Merits are being given to members here in this forum who deserve it if they are making useful quality posts or posts helpful to other members. Merits are also the way to make you rank up, that is why other members here are cheating that they are exchanging merits with their alt accounts to earn merits, and it is obviously against the rules in this forum that you could get banned.
Title: Re: What is merit and why do some people have up to thousands? Post by: Mpamaegbu on August 21, 2020, 04:10:21 AM I wanted to add you some merit but unfortunately looking at your post history. it's only full of bounty reports which add zero value to the forum. It's obvious that what pulled him to the forum was bounty hunting. You never can tell what conditions the OP is in to elk a living. However, I think it would be prejudice to judge them harshly by slamming the spam/shit poster appellation on them. Too early for that. A lot of us here started out as shitposters, BTW. We never can tell, the OP may be a rough diamond waiting to be fine tuned so to say.Title: Re: What is merit and why do some people have up to thousands? Post by: famososMuertos on August 21, 2020, 07:39:01 AM I just got only 1 merit I don't know what it means and I see some profile with thousands of merits. What does it and how does it come? It only takes one post for everything to happen. (1) The post where you receive it is a clear demonstration of the previous paragraph. ________ One wonders how it takes more than a year to ask that question. Zero merit, I never bothered / warned / Investigate / Merit 1, yes. _________ (1) Users who are a source of merit have their exception to this premise. Title: Re: What is merit and why do some people have up to thousands? Post by: smhr on August 23, 2020, 05:36:59 AM As I'm a brand new right now I have gained some knowledge about merits through this thread, thanks to the OP
I have to think about giving quality to my posts as suggested here |
