Bitcoin Forum

Hello everyone, the majority of users is searching on how to get a huge rate of merit points to rank up.  So they make many threads, posts,  ideas.., but they did not get the required merit points, and unfortunately, there is always a disappointment for the most of them, despite that they gave a great effort.  
But the question is why they did not get the required merit points?
Simply,  they always go to merit points , that's the problem. So they must lure merit points to them. But How?
I will simplify this idea through an example:

When someone falls in love with a girl ( hot and handsome..),  so he always goes to her and gives a great effort to attract their attention. But he failed to achieve his goal. So the only solution to attract  the attention of this girl , it will be by two things :
Be seen ( visible ).
Be despised ( indifferent ).

The same thing for merit  , when someone is active in the forum and post everywhere,  gives his opinions,  helps some users. then he/she will be visible and may attract everyone's attention.( For example: nullius)
In fact, he/she should not searching on merit points and must be indifferent.
Then merit points will go to him easily.
( However, it's very essential that  the quality of  post must be good and acceptable ).

What do you think guys?

Nice strategy.

The only sure way to get merit is being active and contributing smartly to activities in the forum. For example, constructive statement and meaningful ones attracts merits. But to even think of it, merit shouldn't be ones major goal in this forum. One should learn from the forum and not just hunting for merit.

If you are after merit then be strategic. The strategy works fine for you may not work the same for others. However you really need experiment the strategies to find which one is working.

If you are not after merit and only here to hang out with the community then just keep doing that you are doing.  (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2999382.0)Why bother about merit?

My man (woman  ::) ) give me a hug  ;D

:o
You better need a nap  :D

It's never worked with girls for me. Whenever I pretend to be indifferent, they go off with another guy. :)

How can people pretend to be indifferent to merit, when it seems that is the only thing they can talk about.

I would like to buy and sell it if I can.
It is impossible for me to obtain. XD

yes, i think merit is just like a reward for a job well done, that is to say if you have answer the question to the satisfaction of the person that post it or any question in the forum and always on line...... we will try

Posting  everywhere wasn't the right thing to do, it does not the matter but it is all about exactness of the reply to the topic. If we notice "nullius" we see the post accurate and deal base on what is needed to the discussion to make it more meaningful to every reader. Then merit will follow.

It's hard to have merit but I think if we've been merited by someone, we will look for it again. That one merit will fuel us to make quality posts every single time here in the forum.

If you took the trouble to read some of the threads here before posting, then maybe you would realise the consequences of doing that.  Maybe you can't earn any merit bcause you aren't interested in crypto, just the fiat money that you can scrounge out of the crypto forums.

Anyway, I've added you to my merit abusers gallery, and I've put you on ignore.

:D..was that a joke Jet cash? Haha. You make me laugh.
Anyway pretending to be indifferent doesn't make sense actually. It is better to become natural that shows your uniqueness than pretending something and end to nothing.


It is not about being active and making post everywhere you can possibly make a spam comment, it is all about making a quality post.

Nullius is not indifferent but a unique or totally different. Being different naturally than being indifferent is far better indeed. ;)

I think merit should be calculated the same way activities are being calculated. Anyway, thank you for the information

You guys are thinking way too much about the merit points. It's not how it works.
It's either you stick to local boards or practice English language.
If you get that right then maybe you don't have to worry about being constructive.
As long as it's understandable, the only thing you should think about is how would it have any sense.

If you are bothered about not earning more, then you should improve yourself and not just your post by doing long ones. Long posts doesn't mean it's good.

even if you make a good post, which aims to build
but others do not like your post, then you will not get merit. can you give me one example? posts like what you think deserve merit.

I have understood the way to get merit points. The best way is to help users in sought out of issues. This can be something related to our forum activities or something related to mining, trading, etc. If the respective person creating the Op or the person who expect support gets satisfied with the support provided technically surely he'll give merits. Have been trying to get in such a way.

The most important thing is how to use our mind in a good way. So if you make many posts with a perfect  and long quality, but your opinion ( idea) is too bad and the reader did not like it , then you cannot get any merit point.
Furthermore, everyone must improve their behaviours ( especially for those who did not take enough merit points).

Even though I can give such an example that would answer your need of proof, still it will be up to the higher ranks or merit sources if they will be considering it as a constructive one.
Some may give merits or not according to what they have learned from your post or if they happen to think that it's a contribution to the forum.

The problem is, people are looking for a criteria for the constructiveness of a post which is not really needed.
People have different opinions. It's up to them if they will give you merits or not.

 Being active here in the forum is nice but posting everywhere? I think that would be very hard because not all of the members here (even me) are as smart as nullius, though that's a great strategy to become popular here in the forum and earn merits easily.

For now, I still prefer to continue posting in the discussions that I am well familiar while I don't have enough knowledge on the others. Pushing one's self posting in unfamiliar threads might end to shitposting so for me this is not advisable.
Then what is the sense of building the merit system if it works the same way like activities do? (This seems that they're now the same right?) Please express your ideas clearer. :)

One sure way of getting merits is  being active and contributing to activities smartly in this forum. Constructive statements and meaningful ones attract merits. Merits shouldn't be the main goal on this forum and not just hunting for it.

Commitment to the forum is the bottom-line to attract merit points.Participant
must also learn to function within the tenets and rules guiding the forum.
You must meaningfully contribute ideas, suggestions, facts and information that
must support the growth of the forum.Must ensure that irrelevance to topic sentence
is completely avoided while focusing on the discussing on the premise of the subject
matter informatively, narratively, descriptively and educationally.Support issues should be
helpful to solving the challenge posed to the forum.

a good thing to get merit, there are things that need to be applied in the posts include :
1. for points merit can from Language or words posts positive,
2. all form words and writing in the posts can example for person many,
3. from Language that polite,outhoritative,and wise and corresponding with question and many p that applied.

Maybe? because look, it is not like nullius is not searching for merits but his post quality attracts the merits that is why as you could see when you visits his profile there are already 525 merits(last time I checked it) though he is still a copper member, which is pretty awesome, what is my point? nullius is making his post so good because he knew that if that is how he post his opinions then anybody who would appreciate his post quality would give him merit.

In my opinion, a good way to earn merit points is to post well, if we post with good and good words, and useful to others, it is very easy to get excess points.

we always try how to get the merit points.It is a very attractive and also helpful to us.If we give a proper knowledge or a good idea about any topic, we can get or earn merit points.So we always try to give our best opinions,ideas,thoughts etc.

argue it is very suitable what agan tell, merit problem is preferred in the post in the Forum is not just a way of speaking should be judged also from the problem someone gives advice that answer in the answer is certain, post must have a touch of love in love post time, this is a tragedy about Merit, Merit is like a woman's dream of many guys. Do not get bored we talk and see it.

Wow,  2 users above are so alike! Same activity and merits counts, participating in the same bounty campaign, has same local time. Siblings?  ;D

Sorry for off-topic. I think a good way is to bash anyone who against merit and call him shitposter and whiner.  Then give him a trivial advice to work hard and write quality posts.

The conclusion of your whole post is to stay active and post widely across the forum by participating in discussions or starting new ones in order to get merits, but one more thing is to avoid spam, your post should contribute in threads.

But what i believe is you can earn more merits if you post naturally by contributing in threads you understand, instead of roaming around the forum in different sections without having core knowledge of the particular board or section.

it is not easy to be seen by the people who gives merit to the deserving post.
you really need to be known first. you need to post consecutive Quality psot
 so you can earn easy merit.

That is why new members should spend more time reading here as they might not be having knowledge about any section. Best section to start with is meta if you had been active on other forums in the past. Go through the forum rules and common problems that members here face related to their account. Then reply to queries being asked by new memembers in meta and get rewarded.


I checked the whole thread to find them and they do look suspicious. I think the campaign manager may be able to find if they are alt accounts based on the writing style.

I think the only way to get merits are contributing in this forum and spreading useful information to the other users. Commenting senseful posts in the forum.

Yes, the focus should be on giving the information being asked here. Instead of posting the weekly limit or certain number of word accounts, you should address the problem being asked by the OP. If one sentence is sufficient , there is no need to make a lengthy answer. I know that a lot of readers will get impressed with long lists and all but the merit sources wil surely not fall for such tactics in my opinion.

I like this strategy about being seen and indifferent. And, I always use it if I want to make a girl fall for me. It sometimes succeeds, and sometimes it does not because "gold diggers". But anyway, when you relate this to getting merit points, I find it pretty applicable because you cannot get merit points if you are not active on this forum and you cannot also get them if you beg for them. Always be indifferent.

Dude if your answer is enough to explain the query which is must need assistance means easily you can get the merits for that with the meaningful explanation dude. So you need to concentrate that kind of section which can need the assistance like Meta, Technical support, Mining Support and pools child board bro.
First you need to equiped in all the field whatever you need to assist for it.

Yes! your example is good but you should  understand that everyone going through a post knows what he she is looking for while accessing or  reading a posts. All l am trying to say is that, there could be individual deference in judgment. However, good post are not hidden and can be confirmed by many persons as a quality post.

That's true, posting useful information and help others it will be a good thing that will awarded by merit points. I am thinking also if anyone continues to post great contents and to be more involved in this forum, he will be more seen and got more intentions by other members, then he can got a good amount of merit as he will be known as long as he write great posts.

One of the good way to earn merits is going to visit this topic
Titan's guide to getting merits (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3182178.0)
Instead of begging for merits with unnecessary threads, users should spend more time to search for useful topics, like of TMAN, read them. Keep doing this day by day with deep efforts, merits will come, higher ranks will come.

this is not Titan' guide...it is TMAN'S guide to getting merit.

Well i dont agree with the indifferent things. I like to be myself, and if you want to get merit then it would be better if you become the better version of yourself, each day. The indifferent things will be work on how you deliver your post to get merit, like making an infographic, statistic, facts, humour, sarcasm, etc, that is how you make yourself indifferent. The other thing you can consider as strategy to get merit is the timing on posting. You got to know when is the best time when people are giving merits, it helps to increase your chance to get merit/

Don't waste your time to earn merit because merit is for old members only. It is unfair for all members here.

Interesting point of view. The most valuable and meaningful thing I appreciate about you is that you wrote the post, so the post. 500 words or 2000 characters. I'm tired of reading topics in other branches in which the author was afraid to press the keyboard to text as the normal text was. All right, so, In General, the idea is good, but how you get the Merits, that's the question!!! they are now reluctant to give, they sell 1 Merit 10-20$/

As everyone noticed, the only way to get a decent amount of merits is to write the article. Useful one of course. Unfortunately, it has to be about merits or the forum so you can post it in Meta. If you post under Altcoin or Bitcoin discussion, it will disappear after an hour or two from the top page. If you post a great article but not related to Meta, you'd be forced to move it to Altcoin or Bitcoin discussion, where nobody will see it.

I'm planning to write one once I figure out how to get raw data from this forum. People who knew it not willing to share their knowledge and I can guess why.

The author is well written. I believe that the who seeks to obtain merit for participation in bounty companies. Only writes on the subject, helps others, does not violate the rules of the forum will be successful!

Best way to obtain merit is to forget about merit.

Merit is unimportant unless you place some value on rank.

Write about something that you are really passionate about and have spent a lot of time researching.

People like reading things that they don't know or that saves them time searching for.

The best posters on here are either knowledgeable, skilled writers or have written some iconic article that people keep reading.

Do things because they are the right thing to do - not because you get rewarded for them.

Indeed, but the fact is people who are in this forum are mostly posting because they are after of signature campaigns rewards or wages. It would be tough to post something if you aren't in a way of getting it because you are really after to something. But this is really a good idea. In addition, is that they do need to change their ideas about having merit while they are in campaign or else they would get a little or worst they would get nothing.

The only sure way to get merit is being active and contributing smartly to activities in the forum.

Yes maybe merits are good tools to increase your level and with higher level you can achieve more with bounties and stuff, but I think the whole point should not be getting merits and increasing your level, where in the same time you can learn more than everything with the elements that are available here, so know how to find them read them and learn from them

I'm very new to this community and would like to know more about the technology behind cryptocurrency, but it seems I will going to have a hard time ranking up, but I'm going to treat it as a challenge more than a task, I respect the management decision to place merit as one of the requirements to rank, it's a sure way for newbies that they are not going to spam this forum.

There is no "sure" way for anything. Merit is awarded for posts that are worth reading knowledgeable and informative. If you are posting here in order to get attention of some merit source then you can be sure that your posts will be ignored.


Correct, Merit is not a "tool" to rank up. It is a system for awarding posts and thus bringing some recognition to the posters in between the flood of shitposts - a post that might be worth reading in the entire noise spectrum.

You can also gather knowledge from reading the threads - but dont get too caught up in the shill posted ANN threads.

Oh newbies are doing everything they can in order to squeeze merit from people from outright begging to direct threatening. Dont worry they are all being exterminated as we speak.

I just edit the page with Chrome Developer tools, it's an e-penis thing

I am a new way to help you earn merit in the simplest way?, someone can support me

The better approach to earn merits is keep reading silently, and only composing, publishing threads when it's necessary to contribute to discussions.
