Bitcoin Forum

If you believe that you have quality posts for all 20 of your most recent posts then I will review them and if I agree I will give you 14 merit.

---

Sr. Members and below only.

However. if I heavily disagree I will add a neutral feedback to your account indicating that you are a spammer.

You can review my last 20 post.
They are quality or not that I always leave for other to decide.
I still have lot of question and by any mean I am not in any kind of development of bitcoin. (so somebody thinking some technical on my postlike segwit,LN,double spend, mem pools merkle tree than he will be disappointed only)

I hate scam and cautions people to avoid them.

Currently more interested in creating some trading strategy. (Work in progress ,till I get successful one).

Thank you for your step for awarding merits.

Sorry, I thought that I should put the 20 post here.

I'll take you up on this, my good sir.  I'm pretty sure my last 20 posts at least weren't total excrement.  You be the judge.

Haha I'm in the same boat as Pearls. I'm willing to roll the dice on you not finding my posts to be total excrement.

Ha sure thing - I'm pretty sure my last 20 posts weren't completely douche like.

But hey, if you don't like my posts, happy to take feedback as well :)

I guess you can look at my last 20 posts.  I see no reason to post long drawn out essays when sometimes all you need is a simple reply.  I'm straight forward in my posts and get to the point.  My main objective is to stop people from investing in scams and losing money.

I like it, it's like russian roulette but with our own accounts on the line. I'll take you up on the offer, although I'm also fairly happy with the merit I have received thus far  :D

i'm not complaining about receiving no merits, so that rules me out of the running
I'm a basic chicken, so I rule me out of the running.
and I'm not too sure what you would make of this post, so, I rule me out again: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3009430.msg31300563#msg31300563
I have one post that consists of the letter 'r' (for reserved on a post I started).

That said, for no merits, and no neutral trust, can you comment ?

If not, thanks anyway

I'm quite liking the double edge sword of this post, entering the game without paying the fee? On the face of it it is sounds like not wanting to participate for fear of neutral/bad feedback, but if OP reads and enjoys then the merits may flow. I had a read of a few posts and one tickled my fancy and gave me a chuckle (so i guess you got at least 1m out of it).

Kudos.

I am pretty strict
Few times will merit exit
Brings out betterment

I am not satisfied with the quality of all the posts. However, in the same way, I am not dissatisfied with the quality of all the posts either.

You know I can just go into your "Latest posts", right? Given that some of the posts are in Arabic (which I do not understand) and are goods/service thread-related I decided to venture a little bit further. Merited.

While I do think that your account should either be retrieved or that you should be granted your status back, I do not believe that ICO management is meritorious enough.

I'm on the fence here. You haven't been a recently active poster for the past three months. I'll give it some more thought before making a decision. Also, not that this had/has/will have anything to do with post quality judgment, but I really cannot stand the manual newlines that you add. You are trying to format it but it only looks like a Jenga tower.

---

Will get to the rest later. Tired for the day.

Nice initiative :) Seems that some of my recent posts are rather short answers to beginner FAQs, but I’ll take the chance anyway.

Hi act, not to complain but i'd like to have my posts reviewed.

I plan to use the smerit i earn (potentially) and redistribute it among people in my local country section. Just realized that some people over there are also contributing good discussions that are very relevant to our local crypto setting.

Thanks for your opinion.
Try till I Succeed.

How am I going to receive the 14merits, if you already give it to hugeblack???
But if another idea pop up in your head.

P.S I conclude it will be nice to award someone if their post is meritorious therefore I need to earn merit first ;)

Please spend a couple of minutes and take a forensic look at my account. I hope I can passed through your strict rules, if not I will try more and come back later.
Thanks for your time, Sir.

I am not proud of those 20 posts but I think I can test them here if that is worthy of merit or not.

I hope you can spend some time looking at them.





Well. the OP actually said:
The OP will not only give 14 merits to one people but some of the people that he will be agreeing on based on their posts.

Hello? Thanks for doing this. Kindly look at my profile and I hope I win these merit prize.

I request you to review my posts. Please excuse the fact that few of them are "report" posts as they were mandated by some of the bounty programs. Other than that you should be able to find some decent posts. Cheers!

I don't think so. It should be written in English (good format, appropriate vocabulary usage, good grammar). I don't think actmyname know Russian to verify your threads in Russian local boards; if he doesn't know Russian language, you can not ask him to use Google translator to verify your threads' quality.

Another reason is local boards are the most spamming place in the forum as well as altcoins (announcement) local boards.

One more thing, but maybe utmost important one is constructive, high-quality posts which written in English will be more contributive to the forum users. I don't deny the fact that you can still contribute in your local boards. However, English-boards, global boards will have greater impacts on forum users.

Please sir I am good poster...

ha ha ha - mate have some merits to pass on bud, good luck with this..

^ This user is a copy paster. Please don't waste any merit with him.

We have good contributions, and we have good ideas, but language is a barrier, especially when we don't have a local forum in the BCT forum, so "Merit" is a Something very far away @@

Please consider my post history; I seek not merit for my own glory, but to dispense to the worthy minions in that most red-headed stepchild of subforums: altcoins\mining.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1393657;sa=showPosts (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1393657;sa=showPosts)

I think this is my good post:
 :D
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2310694.msg23744718#msg23744718

What did you do, bro? Did you read the OP which states that you have to write good posts and actmyname will check your latest threads to verify its quality. That means you have to post at least 20 threads, not only two.
I have not checked your contains to see whether it is original ideas or copy&paste/plagiarism; but if you did, you should aware that those ones violate forum rules.

Go on then, why not?

Forums need more such people, quality posts are always not be found, different languages can not know whether it is a high quality post.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3003934.msg30890040#msg30890040  My post, detailed classification of digital currencies.

Hello,

I would like to join this contest :) feel free to look at my last 20 posts.

I am amazed at you for wanting to help to get merit, the struggle to get the merit is very heavy, to have to ask to others to see our post. it is amazing, is there any merit given voluntarily without having to ask

you can look at my last 20 post. not all of them are quality post because I'm a bounty hunter but I have made some really quality post.

Sir, feel free to check my recent posts and I hope you like it.

Thank you for this great opportunity to earn merit points. :)

Hello! A steep charity event! Maybe my messages turn out to be good? Check please!)

Mostly I am post on Russian, and I think my last 20 was not bad)
Nevertheless I have a post with the mark 4/9 Merits
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2820358.msg28879028#msg28879028
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2699379.msg28859651#msg28859651

I am not sure about all of my most recent 20 posts, at least a few in there are probably rather short posts as the context wasn't appropriate for a needlessly long and detailed post.  But I don't think I would be considered a spammer, I do try to share what I know or my thoughts on a given topic.  I try to contribute where I can, I think the merit system is a good approach to improving post quality. Of course, I recognize that any adjustment is something that takes time and often generates controversy.

Best regards,
Ben

This is cool and most challenging. You can review my last twenty posts if it's worth the merit giveaway don't hesitate to throw it my way but if it isn't then cool.

No problem if not, actmyname.  But formatting aside, plesse take my writing ability into account, as I'm pretty sure it towers over a lot of the rest of the members who are vying for your merits.  It is true that I've not been as active lately, but being consistently active wasn't one of your criteria. 

Not going to kiss your ass, but I'm glad you got onto the DT list and are fighting merit abusers.  The forum needs more such soldiers.

This is a very good thing to do, sir to limit the number of people who always complain about merit and they said, that they write high quality posts and didn't' got any merit points, Anyways, I hope that my last 20 posts are good enough to get the 14 merit points. I will try my luck here.

I'd like to give it a shot, please feel free to take a look at my recent 20 posts, I hope they are qualified enough to get your 14 merits  ;D

Can you look mine? I wanna join :), Its ok for me if you are not satisfied.

Better than 99% of users on the forum.

---

Mostly fine. None of the multi-line posts were spam, so that's good. Means you aren't padding/filling up your posts with recycled bullshit. Keep it up.

---

You certainly are. However, a lot of the posts do involve common-sense knowledge. It's good that you're trying to prevent scams and educating users though I would personally add a little bit more information to some of the posts i.e. "I don't see this doing much, there are already a lot of other credit lending alreaddy." — other credit lending, such as...?

---

It's good. But holy shit, the paragraph structure makes it sound so run-on in this post: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3033719.msg31216402#msg31216402

---

6/10 shitpost, you should go wackier. ;)

---

---

Two out of the four
That's a fifty percent rate
Pretty good so far

Excluding OP, your comments and users made comment more than one?

But still I guess the show is over  :'(


Thanks for speaking it out loud.  (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3033480.msg31207662#msg31207662)

Hello Sir,

It seems that you forgot my case or my last 20 posts are not qualified enough to be mentioned in your thread. If you really forget it, please check my case when you have freetime, I will highly appreciate your help.

If my last posts are under-qualitied, please let me know, I will try more. Thank you, Sir.

Honestly, I don't it will work or not, but I have no merit. I was try to post something good before. I just think that God pushes me to more be patient. I feel to reach a Hero member is long long way....

What are you talking about, my friend. You could not even compose such a good written-English thread. How do you feel if your poor-quality thread can receive merits? I don't believe it will get them at any odds.
Hence, my recommendation for you is:
1. Improve and sharpen your English skills (writing - of course - to help you publish good written-English threads; and reading to help you are able to understand what others wrote).
2. Don't beg for merits; just read and write to help if you can (when you read a thread, which you understand topic/thread's creators and know how to solve their problems; please write to help them). Sometimes you can get merits from thread/topic's creators or from someone else in the forum.

It's been 2 weeks since I received my last merit, here's the link to my last 20 shitposts (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1237156;sa=showPosts).
Actually, there are more "meritable" posts I made in the Project Development and Technical Discussion boards than in the Altcoin Mining section.
Like: 1 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2981313.msg30676552#msg30676552), 2 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2904157.msg29982146#msg29982146), 3 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2956238.msg30875450#msg30875450), 4 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2905156.msg29905346#msg29905346).

I've been having fun participating in QuestionAuthority's thread where they ask difficult questions and review your post history. This seems like a good idea as well, very strange amount of merit, but I can appreciate the division.   :P

I don't know that all of my posts are high-quality, in fact I have not even looked at my most recent 20 posts before posting here. I am mostly interested in having my posting habits reviewed, because if you think there is something I can improve upon then I'd love to do so. I just try not to be redundant or useless and help out where I can. This will be pretty candid, since I haven't analyzed them myself and it'll just span my last week or so of hanging around.


I don't fall into this category, because I've been earning merit at a reasonable pace in my opinion. Nothing to complain about, it is an interesting addition to the forum. Not sure if this would disqualify me. Either way, appreciate what you're doing here and hope you let me participate. Neutral merit isn't the end of the world one way or another, challenge accepted, or Game on as you said.

You've come a long way since asking me for a loan a few years ago.   ;D

Nothing to loss in dreaming. I'll try my luck here.

Perhaps I give this a shot. I'm not confident, though :D

With regards to the neutral rating thing, can I counter that with this?

You cant since.

Its clear that you are agreeing with OP`s terms and conditions in regard of your post being reviewed. By that being said, no matter what the out come is, you just have to deal with it.

As well as having accepted the T&C in the offer it is also a selective quote. A few lines above the quote it falls under this heading.


It's only a guideline.

Sure... I will try, sir. Thanks for your suggestion. I found some posts with bad grammar, but he've get some merit. So, I still confuse, which one called a good post, content or grammar?

I will try to answer you this from my perspective. In my opinion content is the most important factor. I give merits based primarily on this (not that I have many of them to give). Sometimes it is for really good post I think enhances the overall forum quality or sometimes it could be a short to the point post that answered something I personally wanted to know.

Grammar is also important, but it is not a deal breaker for me if poster has some small grammatical mistakes. Post has to be easily readable and the one I quoted from you is not. The advice you received above is solid one and if you intend to post on English speaking part of the forum plus earn some merit you will have to improve your English skills a bit. I hope that I haven't offended you or come out as smart ass. That was not my intention. English is not my primary language as well. If you have a local sub-forum, maybe you can earn some merit points there.

Please check my profile. I write quality content and quality messages. Bitcoin and crypto are doing research on money, I inform people. I joined the forum recently, I am constantly reading and sharing actively. I write content in Turkish and English.

For example: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2980836.msg30638104#msg30638104

In this topic I give information about the safety of the members. I deserve praise.

I think, You need to be encouraged to produce better quality content. Old members of the Forum should encourage newcomers to produce quality content.

I would like to participate, thank you.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1835217;sa=showPosts
Unfortunately, this is the best way to earn merit right now - participate in someone's "I give away merit" thread. This really is not what merit giveaways are supposed to be about. Many quality content posts just get ignored, because nobody who can give away merit can review them. So thank you for giving us at least this opportunity to get some merit and hope that one day some of the jr members can reach full member status.

Coin management. I have the same line of thinking for those as well.

Can I try, I just want to know if im one here that post trash.

I don't think this is a good idea, but I'am eagerly to get merits because almost 5months here in the forum and my rank still Jr. I guess  I will grab this opportunity. I hope this not a bad idea I came in. Thanks in advance.

I hope you realize that 8 of your posts were on bounty threads posting your twitter stuff, and about 5 were one-liners that don't really contribute out of your last 20.

My bad. Thanks for the effort you made. I guess when you mean twitter is the facebook bounty campaign I joined. I guess I will do my best to make post that can contribute well in the forum. Thanks anyway.

My bad, I'm used to seeing those for twitter. Either way, bounty posts aren't constructive, and I would say none of your others ones stand out. actmyname might have a different stance, but I highly doubt it.

---

Unrelated, but I gave 7 merits to a few people in this thread who I thought were deserving.

Does this mean I failed? I'll admit my sentences can get a little wordy at times when I can't quite find the right words. That's something I'm working on, not only in terms of posting on the forum but also in day to day life.

Hi, I want to try my luck here as well.
Sadly, "luck" is the word that best describes most merit give away threads  :D
One should write at least 10 bitcoin-like whitepapers as posts in order to receive merit to become a member.
Seriously, it's not really fair to those who are newcomers, I read some threads where people have noticed that members with old accounts just create new ones and send them merit to promote to member. I really wish 1 merit was enough to become a member for those of us who do not have old alt accounts. 

Its not about "luck" its about how well you write your response to a certain question/post. All post that have substance in it and is not repetitive get merits to the eyes of the ones reading it.

---

Nope, just be straight to the point (response should not be like an essay).

---

If you notice some, then try to investigate it. If your investigation came to a conclusion that the accounts are connected then you can get merits. To more about the details go here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2971165.msg30704605#msg30704605).

Man dont even try me im still new, i got neg trust for merits... if you would look through my posts though and tell me what I could do to better myself

please do try to judge my last 20 posts.  thank you for this opportunity.

I hope my posts add some value to the community. Do review mine and let me know how i can improve.

Hello! Good day! Kindly visit my recent post. Please try to judge my last 20 post. The merit system is good to us. They make the new BTT users to be constructive and to get the minimize the shit posters.
Try my luck!

If you can be bothered, have look at mine.

Mostly, helping people who are new to mining and new help tweaking their rigs and OS and settings.

Cheers!

sorry master ...
I am a beginner and may not have many quality submissions .. but I have 1 that I think is pretty good ,,, please check
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3018293.0

A quick check of your post history shows nothing but bounty submissions!?! This is exactly the kind of thing that the merit system is trying to reduce!

Thanks for your advice sir. It's a good something for me. Yea, I have to learn much anything about bitcoin and altcoin to improve my skill, and my English also. Honestly, I'm really appreciate two-ways communication, like we do right now, in thread of bitcointalk. Because I found many people just drop some posts then go away.

Hi all,

I try to, as much as possible, avoid the dumb, repetitive posts that really contribute nothing to the discourse here.  In so doing, I run across posts that I feel deserve merit but I don't have any to give, so I've begun to bookmark them to revisit and merit when I can.

One potential idea that might be considered by those that decide (theymos) on such things, a little down the road after the merit system has matured some, is to consider giving some amount of "bonus" sMerits to accounts at the time that they level up (excluding the levels with 0 merit requirements).  For example, if achieving Full Member level gives a person, idk say 10 sMerits, it could help to improve sMerit distribution.  This "bonus" should not accrue to an accounts Merits, only their sMerit count.

Best regards,
Ben

Hey man, I went ahead and merited one of your posts from the 20 you wanted OP to review. I felt bad, it was a good thread you started... no merits. So there's one.

If you can be bothered you will see them I'm a good samaritan and I like to help everyone with their mining.

Cheers!

This is what we need for newbies, a helpful thread that exists even only just for a moment. Thanks for your kind and generous offer mate, I added your post to mine for the people in my local board will also see this. Very glad to have the like of you here in our forum.

This is nice to be one of the supporters of giving such a merit of the others and giving them a task, exciting? Yes I am also motivated of posting quality but I don't think it will satified all the readers, as you can see many people or users here are different taste to see such a post that completely be merited. Someday maybe next year I will be one of this supporters of merit platform or campaign giving free merit with decent and equal.

Risking the neutral feedback, I'd appreciate if you can take time to review my posts and get some pointers from someone older in this forum. Although some of it are in our local forums which may turn you off. I'm a newbie on cryptocurrency and newer here in Bitcointalk. Please don't read my first posts as those are due to my newbieness.  :'(

This is a good way to get some constructive criticism. I'm trying to do the same /in a way/ with the newcomers.

I applaud your step to help us get merit points to grow. If more Legendary members do this, the complaints will greatly reduce. Now I am sure of someone to review my posts.

This is a really good initiative :)
I will risk it, maybe the previous 20 are not my best but if il end up getting input on how to improve instead of merit that is a win for me aswell :)

Hi Mr. Actmyname. Please have a review to my posts and please give me a feedback if I'm still not worth of having Merits. I always put my best effort in my posts that's why I'm confident, and hoping that I will receive Merits from you :) . But I'm still risking.

By the way.
Thank you Sir.

Locked for review. I'll bump the thread later after I finish compiling the results. There's a lot to go through and I do check for the context in the thread. After all, you can't just go posting the same thing that's been said ;)

Most are good. Some are not.

---

Surprisingly good quality.

---

No. I do not condone any of those "good project" posts.

---

That's a lot of report posts. About half of the posts are okay, and half are not.

---

That's page 1.

---

You have a lot of bounty posts there so I'm only considering the ~5 posts that are actual responses. They aren't good.

---

Good quality all around, save a few posts.

---

Not really relevant what you think, especially since that post is months old. And your recent post quality isn't that great.

---

:/

---

Can't accept the one-liners.

---

Most are good. Some are in long threads and thus the quality becomes diluted.

---

I disagree.

---

I do not.

---

No. They're not.

---

I can't do anything if I don't understand the language.

---

Ben.

---

Cool.

---

They are not.

---

They are not.

---

Thus ends page 2.

Wait, did my posts really get disqualified just because they're in long threads? I understand that this is your giveaway and these are your rules.

It's just that, I honestly was led to believe that the only quality that mattered was my post, and not the overall thread they're in. I don't think that's fair that if a post gets buried in a long thread, it loses quality.. but okay.

Thank you for taking the time to review my posts.

Game on! Some of my previous 20 posts are in local boards (Philippines) and maybe 2-3 in bounties. You can disregard those if you want.

I think that your account should be taken or that you should be given your status back, I do not believe that ICO management is meritorious enough.

Context matters. I don't see the point of adding to a discussion that already has 50+ replies because 99% of the time the content in your reply will have been made already and you will be effectively adding nothing to a meaningless discussion. Is that understandable?

The reviews are at my discretion. And just because I don't say something doesn't mean it isn't factored in during the reviews.

Ok! Let's do this!! https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1017737;sa=showPosts ... I hope I make it.

Hi,

I have 42 activity points and soon i will need 10 merit points to move to Member rank.
I participate in bounties and dont consider myself to be a spammer (and certainly not a scammer Grin)
I participate in translation bounties which of course take time to do properly but I cant really have any influence on whether people will give me merit points or not.

 If you think I deserve some merit for them well thats just great 

If you dont think I should get any merit I will accept that as well. In that case maybe I can try and find some information that you didnt know.
Let me know what you think.

This is actually not the first time I’ve heard the idea of testing people’s self-confidence with a merit/trust gambling thread.  But the version I heard before had a losing proposition of negative trust feedback.  Not a neutral tag.

actmyname, I will take your wager—but only on double-down terms:  Twice whatever you give others, if you think my last 20 posts are overall meritorious—or a red tag from you, if you don’t.

Why?

I am against the whole concept of merit faucets.  Straight from the early days of the merit system (while my merit score was still in double-digits), I argued that merit should only be earned organically.  The system will work optimally if merit is awarded only in the ordinary course of writing and reading—the production, consumption, and trade of thoughts.

A faucet offering +1 might be relatively benign; but if somebody stands to gain a whopping +14, that person should take a serious risk on his self-confidence.  A formally neutral tag is not a sufficient risk of loss, regardless of its comment.  Think you’re good?  Prepare to be richly rewarded, if you’re right—or shot at dawn, if you’re wrong.

Now, here is what I wrote as to this suggestion before:


I do need to take back the part about not asking for merit “on any terms whatsoever”, insofar as since then, I have hit a merit faucet—once.  It’s run by one of the wittiest men on the forum; and I did it not from any need for the offered +1 to “rank up”, but rather, to fulfill a sentimental wish that merit be awarded to a post dear to my heart:


I have also recently gained much more merit than that (+15) by winning a contest.  The contest is for a good cause (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3055616.0):  Encouraging post quality through a sportsmanlike competetion, and building a healthy culture against signature spam.  Only the top three contestants each week can get anything at all.  It also awards some modest monetary prizes, which are a considerable motivation to me:  It’s a chance to be paid something for not wearing a paid signature.  I think that’s distinguishable from a faucet, where everybody can “win” (at least till the faucet runs dry).

Now, I ask to hit a faucet again—but with a counteroffer to the terms offered.  I do this to prove a point, to wit:

This is how a merit faucet should be run, and this is how a wager ought be done:  If my last 20 posts are judged by you to be overall the work of a meritorious member of this forum, then please give +14 to the OP in my “😈😈😈 PGP 256% AIRDROP BOUNTY SIGNATURE SPAM CAMPAIGN! Old-school CRYPTO 😈😈😈 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3107429.0)”, an +14 to the very first post by my new role account (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3116545.msg32202843#msg32202843).  If not, then red-tag me to hell as a “spammer” with a serious case of the “Dunning-Kruger effect”.⁰  Both of me.

Double trouble.  Let me make a real bet!  Ante up.

0. The term is put in scare quotes, so as to not let Dunning and Kruger enjoy the cognitive bias of overestimating their own achievement.  The phenomenon of self-overestimation has been known to students of human experience ever since man first turned a philosophical eye on his fellow men.

Kindly view my 20 last posts. I don't have any posts in bounties. View it, if it is deserve to be merited. Thank you.

I ask you to review my post. apologize if there are some posting report because it is mandate of some gift program. but, hopefully there are some posts worth to be given merit

I will reject your wager for a few reasons.

First and foremost, my terms are strict in that if someone has even one low-quality post in the twenty that come before posting on this thread, they will not get the merit. Period.

Moreover, this makes your wager pointless because users should not be rated based on a singular (or a few posts) that do not have sufficient quality. Most people I know that are known for their posts will sometimes shitpost.

The negative feedback would thus have no weight, lest we create an equivalence to it with scummy activity. And in that regard, it's not really a good association to have.

---

It feels like the only way to get a wager that you might think is impactful is with betting something monetary or sentimental, like your name. Though in the former case, it would have to go to a charity or some third-party member because you will have bias otherwise.


Also just as a final note, you have a lot of merit anyway. I don't think that double the reward should be spent on you ;)

However, if you want to confine to the original terms that I have, then we can see.

I agree with you.

Nullius was on Meta trying to increase merit requirements for ranks. He said he was an exceptional poster who gets at least 1+ merit per day. He says he made it to Hero in 1 month.

But it seems that he's only been doing so by actively participating in these merit giveaways/contests.

I'm not one to judge or anything. But I feel like he's being a little deceptive in his Meta thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3114287.20). It sounds like he's purporting that he's naturally gaining merit points from quality posts, which I'm sure he does... it's just that he's trying to also purport that people can get 1+ merit per day and make it to Hero in 1 month simply by posting naturally and gaining merits from organic threads.

But it seems as though a significant reason why he has so many merits is because he participates in these merit giveaways/contests. In fact, you can see just how much he relies on these merit giveaways/contests by his attempt to draw 28 merit from you rather than just 14. And I especially like the tactic he tried to employ to intimidate you into giving him the merit (which I, begrudgingly, wish I had included in my own entrance into your contest): He was going to shame you for not inspecting his posts correctly if you didn't give him the 28 merit. I believe you did the right thing by rejecting his proposal.

If merits are so easily attained organically, then why would he have to resort to such? Again, I think that's fine... but I believe he should've disclosed that in his Meta thread rather than leading readers to believe otherwise.

I'm now really questioning the ease at which one may attain merits from simply posting contributory posts. But, I believe I also see it as a great challenge.

Hey man, you are most welcome to go through my posts. Thanks for your time.

I am willing to put myself on the line and test my last twenty posts that stand before this one to see if they are all of merit-quality. Even if they are not, I would be grateful for some feedback so I can improve from here on out. Thank you for what you are doing, actmyname.

Hi act, you can review my post history. And I am very willing to here any comment from you to improve myself. Thanks.

For starters please don't quote entire walls of text, edit out the part that is needed. It's irritating as hell when you need to scroll down walls and walls of text to see a 1-2 liner post referring to someone one point in the 20 odd paragraphs of text that you quoted. Secondly there's intense dislike in people for the megathreads because

• They are generally promoting spam, generating tons and tons of useless posts pretty much exclusively for the bounties.
• The questions are largely answered to be realistic. We don't need to have 200 pages to know that "Bitcoin makes us rich and can help us make money"

So a lot of users who actually care don't bother reading or commenting in those threads.

---

hmmmmm intensifies

---

As much as I may or may not agree with Nullius' proposal to raise the merit ranking, most of his merit in fact didn't come from giveaways (though some may have I guess. One of his most merited posts (which contributed to around 10-12% of his total current merit) was a post about his Vanity generator for example.

rank Є [Jr, Sr] ^ rank ≤ Sr
I don't see any contradiction ;)

Just point out that the union of the sets would add in newbies while the intersection would but again was all in humour ;)

I got your point. But the thing is, I don't expect many newbies (i.e. between two and four weeks of activity) to have [in ascending order of difficulty]:
a) a desire for merit immediately
b) high post quality
c) 20 high-quality posts
d) 20 consecutive high-quality posts

I appreciate the initiative and the time put into this.  :)

I usually post in the altcoin sections, mainly altcoin mining.

Please take a look at my recent posts and let me know what you think.

please check, I'm sure from the beginning of my post is pretty good, never out of the topic. But no one gives me merit,
please check.

Hello, my contributions are actually exclusively in the German Subforum.
I don't know if it is possible to check the contributions but I would be very happy about it.... my activity is soon ready for the next status... but unfortunately not the merits  :(

greets,
mole

Hi sir you can review my posts for me to qualify for the 14 merits.

Good sir,

I don't have any incredible data and my posts are not about rocket science, ba I still want to be judged. And maybe, just maybe you would find out that they deserve some merit. 

I never complained about merit system but i think it needs some improvments and it will come in the up coming month,   :) and i would like to know your opinion about my latest posts and of course iam open to any opinions that will help improve my quality posts and thanks in advance

Good idea - please have a look at my post record, mainly in the politics & society and beginners & help sections.

Okay check my last 20 posts.. Some of them are threads i started. Some of them are reply. In every thread and reply i really tried to give something meaningful and useful.
I be here nearly 3 months now and it is very hard to rank up.. If you think i have done something good please help me to be a member..

Thank you very for this thread and i found it suddenly today.. Actually it is great.. Keep up the good work..  :)

I wonder if majority numbers of people from this forum thinks like this.
Top words sir.

Where'd you get so much Merit?

I don't mind to get reviewed.

hey please review my post tutorial about making ethreum smart contract : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3127562.msg32342094#msg32342094 thanks,

Hello, this is the link of my account; https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1273930;sa=showPosts

 I think my posts have enough quality to gain merit. Hoping you consider to review my posts, Thanks in advance!

I'm ready to hear your sentence. Pardoned or punished? I hope the Russian language will not be a problem for you)
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1179451;sa=summary

I want to review my post by one of the trusted member in this forum like you @actmyname, i am not expecting to be merit but i just want to know what should i need to improve in my posting. Hoping you will have a time to review and give some advise thanks in advance.

Hello actymyname,

first of all thank you for helping the community and the members to growth with your idea.
This is a list of my posts https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1135678;sa=showPosts

I hope you think I deserve the merits you wanna give us. The posts are posted in the Italian section, more are very long, someone is short but noone of them are spam. :)

Thank you again.

I had a much "better 20" a few days ago but the thread was closed. so putting a foot in through the door this time. Hope I can complete the double-ton.
Thank you for doing this.

Hello, I would like to join this challenge. Please consider my history post.
Thank you

this is very good and for people who want something more valuable, I may not be able to give 20 post that help, but here I will try to learn, because I am new to this bitcointalk

It sounds scary at the same time exciting knowing that if he agrees with our post he'll give us merits. But if not, it might be a big problem though 😂 I'll just shut my mouth up and eat popcorn 😂

This is my latest post, and I am proud to say that this is a quality post and I deserve merit. Please consider my post. Thank you very much, you can check out my recent 20 post and I have no intention of spamming. wish you have a good day.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3142942.msg32493093#msg32493093

Thank you for merit, actmyname.

I am now looking to pay it forward and will look at some of the people that posted here.

Best regards,
Ben

I write posts on various topics on the crypto world, I try to select an understandable content and disclose interesting topics for beginners:

1.https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3117374.0

2.https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3079798.0

I hope I have up to twenty quality posts you can review. Thanks for the opportunity you're giving to we newbies

I take part in Joe’s Merit challenge as I have always tried to give thoughtful and helpful responses (full disclosure). I think my last 20+ post minus one joke post all have been well thought out and would subject myself to your review. I’ll take the gamble if I meet the criteria for being reviewed. Thanks for reviewing some of these posters who may go unnoticed otherwise.

Link to the challenge for reference
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3055616.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3055616.0)

I hope merits distribution campaign is still going on. If so, i would like to participate too. I request you to take a look to my posts and evaluate. Hope you accept local boards messages too. Keep going what u r doing, Thank you

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=658687;sa=showPosts

Deal! Even if my posts are not too long they have sense regarding on the topic.

Hello,

Actmyname said very detailed in the OP that he will consider the last 20 threads of candidates before making his decison whether each candidate will get 14 merits or not. You don't have to post links to your best threads here.
There you go:

Game on - Review my 40 posts and double your Bonus !!!!

Locked for review. I do these things in chunks when I have the time to review as it takes a long time.

Thread is now unlocked! All users up until now have been reviewed. Unfortunately, writing comments for each one is too difficult so I've stuck to only leaving neutral feedback.

If you've gotten merit, then good!
If you have a neutral feedback, then try to improve your post quality by avoiding the things that I've stated in the feedback comments.
If nothing happened, then look at which posts of yours are not high-quality.

Im too nervous to do this but I still want to try.
Please read the OP, thanks.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1807652;sa=showPosts

Wow thats too fast, but anyway ill try to improve more. Thank you :)
Can I know what is the qualification? Is it because I have some 1 line on my first page?

I'll give it a go. Regardless of how it turns out thanks for offering the service.

Also if you run out of smerit I'd be willing to send some out.

When I am about to start a topic, I make sure to check the forum if it is new or already in the forum.
However, my ideas are already in this forum, that is why I have no post or topic just some reply to a certain topic and help new users where to get ideas.  

It's good that there are people like you and  i respect you, that you waste your time,but how you will read the messages  not English, I have for example bad with English, but I began to try as best I can ..I would like to play with you, but I do not know the criteria,maybe you like only eng messages and without the bounty~ I would be glad if you would clarified this for me thx for your work!
Many of the legends even do not pay attention to new users, because they will not benefit from this and I think the essence of messages in the constructive, and not in the water in large quantities and bad english does not allow me to develop a thought,but I'm learning little by little! ...

Good sir, please review my posts. I can guarantee you that I’m posting ideas to benefit our community. I’ts worth the read and hopefull for you, worth the merit. Hopefully there’s more enough for me. Have a great day.

A good chance to get big amount of Merit without cheating :)). Why don't people try to join this? There are a lot of people complain about Merit system but they don't dare to try this one cause they afraid of being tagged :))

Thank you for giving a good chance for everyone ;). Pls check my 20 recent posts ;D

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1086526;sa=showPosts

Kindly review my post sir. I posted some opinion regarding the possibility of incorporating bitcoin as salary of professionals/laborers.

It is great to see users like you, who care about giving merits, ultimately using it as it should be, so I want to join this game aswell! I tried to make posts and replies with quality - I hope I can get some so wanted merit this way!

Good day sir, please take a look at my last 20 post and try to evaluate if i have passed your criteria. I am a little bit nervous but i have to gamble because i think this is my chance to gain merit and also to know if my post are quality enough to the eye of the veterans in this forum like you. I knew i am still raw on cryptocurrency but i am doing my best to be able to contribute on this forum.

I didn't mind merit when I'm posted my last 20 posts. Talk for a good quality post don't talk for merit. Let your good quality post talk for merit. :D

Hello. Take a look at my posts. please ignore the ones in Portuguese. Thank you

I would wants get your merits  ;D

Thanks Sir/Ma'am actmyname, I've realised that I really do have so many errors in my posts back there. But I'm now improving my posts, actually sometimes, I really can't avoid having mistakes when posting.

But I'm still doing the very best that I can. By the way, thanks for spending some of your time just to review my posts :) Its my pleasure. I hope someday, I'll be able to receive merits from you as a Good Quality Poster.

Once again, thanks
~Silent26

please review my post and i highly appreciate your comment if ever you find it not a quality post, i love to take it to improve my self here in the forum. thank you

Hi Buddy, I'm sorry for interfering but, all I saw to your post history are "shitposts" (please no offend), I'm sure that actmyname will also say the same thing. I really feel sorry for your signature campaign for accepting you. It seems like your just posting for your signature-ad campaign to get paid.
Spam posts can easily be notice by;
1. One to Two liner posts.
2. Wrong grammars.
3. Totally Irrelevant to the topic.
4. Doesn't even know how to use "I" (example in, Hi "I "am Silent26).
5. Doesn't even know how use CAPITAL LETTERS in the beginning of the post or after a Period (.).
6. Don't even know how to use" Past tense " with" ed" in the end of the word.

These are some of my basis to recognise spam posts.
Try to improve your posts buddy. Actually, I'm also been given an award of title "spammer", but I assure you that my posts are more constructive than yours :)

Hello please review my post thank you this is awesome thread. I hope I got merit points.

Good day sir. i think i have some post. plesea. you can see and check. I'm still trying to write high quality content to serve the bitcointalk community. If anything goes wrong please forgive me. thanks sir!!!

can i get merit pls check me  ;D

Try checking mine, these I think might be a quality post. If you dont think so, I'm just going to ask some tips to improve my posts. Thanks and God bless.

I would like to try. Can you please check mine? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1377168;sa=showPosts

I can't believe all the garbage posters who've posted here.  I don't care if actmyname does it or not, but I'm leaving neutral feedbacks on the shitposters, and it's too bad they can't be negatives.  

Great reason for entering them into a contest to win merit.

Why would anyone spend time to give you free advice when you can find the answer to this anywhere in Meta.  Maybe actmyname is feeling generous--I can't speak for him, and I'm done writing in this thread.

actually, I don't believe all my post because I'm bad in English but I will try if you don't like it I will try to improve my post and come back. thanks for the chance you giving to all members trying to have merit and rank up.

I did not know that there were people who gave merit like that. in truth, what you just said is true, in the last pos they filled with pure shitposters,   ::)

i have so much words to say but i won't write much

first of all i entered this contest never thought that actmyname will a neutral feedback indicating that I am a spammer the rule was saying that if (heavily) disagree with someone anyone i didn't know he will heavily disagree with me

second, I only say my opinion in these posts if you don't like it i don't care cryptocurrency is a free space and I say my opinion on what i see in the market and talking with people who knows the market also

and leaving negative feedback ?!! don't you think its a bit much? theymos himself said that's not what negative fb is for
i didn't scam anyone, i didn't try to sell my account

and last and not least you lost my respect even though I don't know you, but I guess you aren't a good guy I will check your previous posts and check if you have some like mine or not and leave a neutral feedback even though I guess I have the right to leave it negative because you insulted me but I don't think its a good reason because you were disagreeing with a bad way
I just left the signature and I don't really care

When you have few posts out of the twenty that are bad, then I will ignore them and leave you alone. Meaning: no merit, no neutral feedback.

But the thing with me doing these reviews in chunks is that I am also exposed to the content that you post after the reviews (though I only skim through them before going to the relevant pages). If there is enough reason to leave a neutral feedback then I will. And it's not like I can't remove these after you show an increase (hopefully a great one) in post quality.

Hi Actmyname,

I don't speak very well English. But in French section nobody have any merit to give other people.
Some legendary have merit in stock but don't give it. They just make post to campaign signature or don't want spent time to make this.

Same you give me 14 merit the problem will not resolve.
We don't have no moderator, no Source merit.  :-\
I like the merit system. It's stop the farmer account, but it's stop good people.

With my level of English I can't made nothing to help French section.
Thx to read my message.

I think you skipped me? Or maybe i just was inbetween, not deserving neutral trust and at the same time not worthy of merit.
Just felt a little like a forgotten sheep in the flock  :D :P

As I stated, because I ran through a number of pages at once in a chunk, users that were deserving of neither merit nor feedback were simply ignored. It triples or perhaps quadruples the amount of time to write feedback for every user and when I'm doing them in large chunks like that I simply can't be bothered.

The bulk of it would probably go along the lines of, "mostly good but some posts were in pointless threads/were one-liners/were unnecessary"

Oh sorry, i thought i read everything here before posting that comment but obviously missed out that part.
I can see why you would want to keep it to a minimum with so many users posts to go through :)

I dont have 20 post yet but Ill try my best when I hit 20 post so that I can contest for this merits. Thanks

Can you check out some of my posts? Tks sir
I do not know if my posts are of sufficient quality. Give me your comment

Joining, please review mine. I'm still new to cypto environment and slowly learning  ;D

Kindly check mine https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile.

Thanks,

Dear author, I would like to push my luck. Please check my posts.

I think I created the article and posted 20 posts, you can see this link.
Thank you !
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3158942.0

Hi sir
Please check my last 20 posts
Good luck

I'll give this a shot. Think I've made some decent posts, whether they're worth any merit is another question altogether. Thanks.

Thank you sir for your consideration to us,

Before all the things, I Don't say that merit system are not good but the for me I hope everyone follow the right way of gaining merits. I think there was a member here do not follow the rules to earn merit. I also wondering is merits are for self desire or what? I don't think so if what Is the real bases fo  earning merits? Sometimes they said a quality poster are the qualification to merits. But I'm just laughing when I saw post that is just a simple as they are. Post without just any effort are granted with merit and for the post with a greatly consternations are nothing to be granted. We hope this things will not be tolerated because lower members are also sacrificing.

I made this post not for merits but to awaken everybody.


Thank you verymuch  :)

Hello! Good day! I don't have much post but I would like to see this "post" because even me I could not believe that concern why this post is merited. The comment was all about concern in Merit also.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3172906.msg32905492#msg32905492

Hope you understand about this.

Hello !


Although my post are very simple, but I am so proud to tell that my post are genuine. Even I'm not good in English too all of my post are from my own knowledge and way of understanding. I should try my best to earn merit not to be unfair like others.

I hope you have a time to read my post again. Thank you.

Hello.
I also try to help everyone and answer as much as possible concretely and qualitatively. Activity is good, but there is no merit:(
I will try.

Hello you can review my last 20 post.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1196171;sa=showPosts

I want to gamble on this because I am sure that my posts are high-quality. Please review my last 20 posts but if you want I would say you can check 40 of them.

Sir, I will be grateful if you can review my post although I don't expect to be merited for bounty reports but others should be worth looking at.
Thanks.

Interesting, I just want to know the quality standard of a post from your view. I feel my last 20 post is not deserved for merit, but at least I have some motivation to get feedback later of my next 20 posts from you.

I do not have the right to ask for merit whenever i post, but with the little knowledge i have, i always feel like contributing to every post that catches my interest. I cannot say that my last twenty posts deserve to me awarded with merit, but i try as much as possible to add values and to encourage those that might seem worried in their daily tasks. You can in your benevolence review my posts and if there is any adjustment and improvement to be made i will.
Thanks.

I posted too many constructive post in defferent forum but i can' t get merit to any other user's in this forum even if i posted a quality posts but its okay when the time come i will get merited to people who can see my constructive post that's why i keep on posting in defferent forum.

Hello , thank you for the chance given :)

I want to participate in your program .

I have 107 posts and received only 1 merit . Agree some of my post are not good enough to get merit .

Thank you one more time .

I would appreciate it if you could take a look over my post history. :)

Hello, thank you for the opportunity, some of my posts, have bounties littered in, but most of my responses are lengthy with a lot of thought.  Most of my posts come from the "Trading" forum since I feel this is my area of expertise.  Feel free to look through mine if you feel inclined, but since I have a few bounties littered around, here are a few highlights.

Thank you so much for looking, I really appreciate it, and sorry if the bounty mixed in posts disqualify my entry, wasn't really sure how to approach this.

I have no clue how you have enough merit to continue this thread, but I appreciate you getting around to my request and throwing some merit my way. If you don't mind me asking, are you far behind on the reviews, do you do them in a strange order or have you looped back around to my request just recently?

I honestly was not expecting to receive merit as a result of this thread, but now that I have I just wanted to pop in for a few questions and to say thanks. 14 merit still seems like the strangest amount, but you won't catch me complaining :) Out of 10 pages of people requesting review, I am honored that I have been one of very few members to have been bestowed such an honor. I appreciate that your criteria are clearly stringent and you are not interested in simply throwing your merit around nonsensically.

I hope your offer it's still valid!!! I'm pretty sure that my last 20 posts are not garbage.

I rarely post, because what I know is usually read on the forum.
I usually only comment on other people's posts, and this is my category

If you don't mind , i wanna say one thing ...2 merit can inspire me (& all jr.Member ) more then now .and honestly say i am in this forum because i like it. But i (and all junior)  also need little bit inspiration ..

You earned it, because all the people vying for his merit on the last page or two have been total shitposters (in my opinion).  I can't believe some of these people actually think their posts deserve merit.  Most of them deserve the neutral "shitposter" tag.

But this is not my thread and I respect actmyname's decisions.  It's his merit to give, but it drives me batty to see all of these one-line posts that people think are competition-worthy.

And this:
<sigh>

I know u want english posts but I must try my chance :(

here : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1458618

7 sMerits if I win this, then I guess I'll give this a try :) I'm already out and need sMerits for some posts ;)

Here's my link, don't hesitate to make a review and leave some comments, I will gladly appreciate if you can give me some word of advice if I didn't qualify you specifications for posting...

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3291167.msg34338167#msg34338167
help me, please !
Thank you !

I want to gamble on this. Please look at my last 20 posts and tell me the truth about my content. I did my best to write quality answers and to be helpful to other members.

I just wonder if someone rejected here before can join again.

I want to try to join again if I can, and if my post is worthy enough can you please remove that bad neutral trust? but if it still not tell me and I will try harder to improve again.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1807652;sa=showPosts

Being multilingual might play against me here, since I post in both English and Spanish throughout the forum, so it is rare for me to get a straight shot of 20 posts in a row in just the former language.

Out of my history of posts, the ones I favour most are those based on statistics, finding them often the base to proof or counterproof points being stated, or simply to throw some light on questions formulated throughout the forum.

Anyway, willing to get your feedback on them if the game is still on.

Man that merit system really destroyed my potential to grow in bitcointalk.

I was really close on getting to the next rank and be elligible for 100 merits, now I am 90% more far away with a more difficult system...

how is that fair?

I did them in chunks. One prior reply on page 7? (or 8) noted that I was caught up until then. That was the day that I ran through about 5 pages of requests.

A lot of posts were checked. Not many users were given merit. And there was a large number of users who got a neutral feedback.

Just like before, I'm going to do these in chunks. Kind of like a signature campaign, in a way.

May I also ask, on what page are you now? are you done reviewing? I'm looking forward for your judgement into my profile. Thanks.

Another thing, is there anyone here whom you ignored and then they turned out to be like a quality poster? or are there any participants here you put on ignore and didn't take a quite look onto their profiles? I'm just thinking if you're also like the others,like Jet Cash (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=698159) and The Pharmacist (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=487418) that ignores some people for eternity. People like them doesn't make any exemption, if you're on their list then so be it no more taking back.

Don't worry. The merit's not going anywhere; I just haven't had time to review posts yet. (Maybe it would also do well to try managing a campaign if I get the opportunity, hah)

Anyone who is ignored has good posts. Their posts just weren't consistently good across all of the 20. I did initially write comments but they seemed pretty redundant and so I stopped.

I have less than 10 users on my ignore list. None of them are in this thread. I don't like ignoring people because if they have something to say, it's a pain in the ass to look.

No need to attack others. We all have different tolerance levels. I'm just ~~way~~ more tolerant. Not to say I won't reprimand people who post with poor quality.

I'm a rarely post, I do not have 20 posts. If you want to look at this is my list :

I'll take my chances here. I just passed, the minimum necessary to become Sr Member. But I'm pretty far from the necessary merits. I do not know if what I have written is so good that it's worth a lot of merit, probably because I use the forum as a place for discussions and did not create any tutorials.

Hello, you can view this post
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2538716.msg34168264#msg34168264
or to look at soybeans there are a couple of interesting ones

I kindly request you to review my posts sir. i only have 21 post

Pls message me personally I wanna talk a little more about it please Thank you

Game on! Some of my previous 20 posts are in local boards (Philippines) and maybe 2-3 in bounties. You can disregard those if you want

Bro actmyname, i beg to review my post! there are no campaign reports and I am the real newbie. hopefully there is no dirt in my post.
I only have 20 posts that some of its parts are posting in the local thread.

If you're Filipino, you apparently speak English very well.  I give you props for that, though I currently have no merit to give.  Maybe actmyname will find something interesting in your post history to merit.  Almost makes me not give up hope for the Philippines.  Tell me you're not an ex-pat living there.

Also:  actmyname, with this post I am done cocking up your thread here.  Sorry about that.

Figures.  Guess I've been right all along.

Actually, he's posting on the Indonesian board and the English posts like that one are copy-pastes from earlier in the thread.


I already hit report to moderator on that one.

I know this is an old thread, but seems like it's still getting some activity.

Please check out my last 20 and see if I can finally bump up to member.  Some people don't take Jr. Members seriously, but the same may be true for members.  Either way, let me know what you think.

I wouldn't mind your review of my last 20 posts. Even thought some of them obviously less informative than others, I still consider most of them of at least a decent quality.

I'm looking forward to get a member status after being here for almost 6 years. That said, I was mostly reading and mostly not logged on to avoid any tracking (good old paranoia days), so no hard feeling whatsoever.

You'll get merit when you create useful posts or when someone likes your post.

This is unlikely to happen when you post the following:

Because that post does not add anything to the discussion.

I plan on doing another chunk of post review soon.

Thanks you so much , i will do my best the get merits i will make a good post ...

Hi good day,  I just passing by the meta section to see new discussions about our forum and I've seen this. I think i'm a little. It late but I'll try to participate.
I didn't say that all my posts are qualified but please review it. You can also look at threads I've opened because mostly I shared my knowledge when opening a thread.

Thank you so much for your time and dedication.

I am willing to take any penalties if my posts really do not help people and forums

i will try make post that is useful for all people. because i want to share for the sake of people who need it. i am glad you humble

Uhh... what? Your posts seem to be set in a roundabout way. In my opinion, they're large and clunky.

---

And posting in spam megathreads will never be good. You cannot add to a lack of discussion.

One last thing: 1) The topic is "Will the price be stable?" and you are writing in response to the "discussion" in the very last part of your post.

2) That's a wall of text.

As the bard had once written, "brevity is the soul of wit"

Hello sir, what you can say about my posts? Just looking to get some feedback to work better ..
Thanks in advance

I tried to improve lately, hoping the bests.

I will participate to get merit. Hopefully, my post is good and has more value to get merit. I will try here.

Ahh, I must have missed that prior reply in the sea of responses you are bringing in with this thread. I would assume that doing them in chunks would be your best option, because attempting to do them as they pop-up would seem unreasonable and I can't think of any other way to do it. Maybe it was a silly question to ask. I wear your 14-merits as a badge of honor, knowing how many people are attempting to capitalize on your challenge and seeing them turned away by the masses. I can't imagine reading through all of these posts that are required for you to maintain this challenge. I'm wondering, if you come across a post in a user's history that doesn't qualify them for the merits do you immediately stop at that post and move on to another user or do you continue to read the rest of their recent 20-posts?

Anyways, you seem to be a good judge on the quality of posts and those that are deserving of merit, so thanks again for the opportunity and good luck to others that are interested an participating. Keep chunkin' away!

Actmyname have you reviewed my posts and I was rejected or my review is still pending?

I follow this thread but is hard to say how far you are with reviews. Maybe you can add sometimes that you are at this date or this post and add post number of last reviewed one. Like this, it will be easy to follow and understand how far you are and who is not awarded.

Thanks for this opportunity.

As I've said before, I was going to do another chunk of review soon. I have and will always post whenever I do them. You'll just have to wait patiently.

That being said, you have not been reviewed yet. In fact, all users after March have currently pending reviews.

Thank you for raising everyone's game!  It is nice to see that this forum has a way to weed out unnecessary clutter.  You may certainly review my posts, that would be much appreciated.  However, I would be very interested to know if there are topics you would like to see addressed.  I consider myself a critical thinker and a decent writer.  If I can add value to that topic, I would like to give it a shot!

I find this game interesting for people like me and new bike. I would like to receive two merit for the posts that I have shared that helped people especially new ones. I want you to view my 10 most recent articles to evaluate them. If yes I would like to ask you 1 merit instead of 14 merit, thanks actmyname  ;D

It really doesn't seem like that difficult of a concept to grasp, so I'm unsure what the confusion is. If you are reading through the thread and keeping up with actmyname's posts then you will clearly see up to what point they have been able to review the posts of users. There are multiple ways to keep track of which users have been reviewed, but the easiest way would seem to simply read the most recent 2-3 replies and see exactly what the OP has said.

I can understand why users are "impatient", but they have to understand that they are not being helpful to their own case by acting this way. There is no rush to receive merit, and if you are in that kind of rush then you are not the type of user deserving of merit, anyways. It's quite impressive that you go through multiple pages and multiple weeks of submission within one-sitting. This is something I will tip my hat to.

I have emboldened the most important part of your post, since there will surely be another dozen users asking questions revolving around the same information.

Honest feedback and review required.

Just dropping my name in again. Take your time; not that you need me to tell you that. The service is appreciated.

Sorry I did not register to do a candidate, I'm just wondering to send a long list with 20 posts I think may be longer for each comment.

Please review mine, and criticize if you think there's something wrong so I can improve my posts. Thank you!

I can and I will wait patiently, this is no problem at all. I have read all answers from OP but still couldn't figure out how far he was with this reviews. That said, I will wait for my review and keep coming back for updates from Actmyname.

If you don't mind spend a few minutes and investigate my record. I trust I can went through your strict standards, if not I will attempt progressively and return later.

A debt of gratitude is in order for your opportunity Sir.

Greetings Sir.
      My grammar might not be good like others. You'll be the judge.

Thanks

Well, it's my great pleasure to have my threads/ posts to be taken into your consideration. By the way, I don't know for sure whether I can get merits from you or not, your thread has helped me to pursue useful posts/ threads in the time to come. And that's enough
Thank you  

This takes a lot of time, since a lot of members a taking a risk here to get Merits and to be reviewed for some reason that can help them improve their posting styles. So it's better to rest easy mate. This is not an easy task for actmyname himself, he already offered this free of charge service so no need to rush him.

You can watch this topic and also click on the notify for you to be updated in this thread.

SIR, if time permit,then look to my account.my all bounty campaign will end shortly within a month.In future I will not join any more,if possible then ignore the post related to bounty campaign

No merit for this user due to plagiarism. Just in case, someone bump here to check. See summary (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3345897.msg35564087#msg35564087)
Banned:

Not sure if i can apply since all my post are releted to translations jobs, doesn't matter how good the layout is(i usually translate images too),
i never receive a single merit  :o

This is my last 20 posts. I ask you to review. Hopefully there is no junk post. But, can a local post be reviewed? That is your right.
Bitcointalk: fuck4ass (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=2014747;sa=showPosts)

Hey actmyname! Im eager to be a full member, but have not received merit really for most of my helpful posts.

I wish that you have some time to review my posts. Would really appreciate it.

honestly speaking I love this new merit system, it has indeed helped motivate users on how to make quality posts. my manners, I almost forgot I have some merit to give away, I will be looking out closely for a quality post.

Please don't ask me for merits to avoid a story that touches.

Is this still up?

If so, you can review my history. I made a few good posts recently , in English. I write some in portuguese too, my local board...

What is the purpose of this ? but i dont want to rank up without any good reason,i am not interested to these shit spammy signatures because i am more in to trading,but i would like to experience what is the feeling of having a high rank account is that a privilege or what? based on my reading high ranks are often getting more biased,political sided in this forum

Would that be okay for the newbies here?

Locking for review. Don't know when I'll be done, but I will post an update once I am.
