Post by: sicnarfkswiss on March 14, 2018, 06:38:26 AM
I just rank up today at 70 activity but still I'm a Junior member because my merits are not enough, so I feel so sad..because honestly I'm having hard time earning it. I don't have much knowledge in bitcoin though I research but not all sink in my mind so its really hard for me to earn merit.. Is there any other way to earn merit except for quality posts? Please excuse my grammar.

I just rank up today at 70 activity but still I'm a Junior member because my merits are not enough, so I feel so depressed.. Do you think this merit thing will get lost in the future of bitcointalk? because honestly I'm having hard time earning it. I don't have much knowledge in bitcoin though I research but not all sink in my mind so its really hard for me to earn merit.. Is there any other way to earn merit except for quality posts? Please excuse my grammar.
Then learn more, I am the same as you. I must be a senior member. But actually if you really make a good post in this forum that help many people I think you will get merits from legendary members who actually don't really need merits anymore.

I understand your opinion however it is the decision of the organizers in this forum to minimize the people entering this forum just to scam. I agree that it is very difficult to acquire the merit system but I think we just have to work on it and we don't have the choice except to follow the rules. There are situation that we are given S'Merits that we could share to somebody that truly deserve for a merit and I hope also that this will be back again.

Agree with you! All we have to do is to follow the rules and regulations being imposed by the organizers because at the end this is for the good of all of us bitcoin users. For now lets just be patient enough in everything we do, we do not know what's their plans ahead so better wait and see and hope for the best thing to happen. What matters is there is still an opportunity for Jr Member, just continue to have quality and constructive post.

I think that you underestimate yourself. You already have 5 merits, it remains to receive another 5 and you will become a member. I should have already become a member too, but I have not yet received enough merits. It pushes me to strive to improve the quality of my posts, write more grammatically and interestingly. Be patient. Everything comes in time to the one who can wait.

All of us started small since from newbies. I can say that be patient. The technique there is to be positive, do research, read a lot and  be motivated that there is a good profit waiting after the hard work.

I do not think it's just you. almost all members find it difficult to get merit. it takes hard work and sharing knowledge in every opportunity. the rest let others who judge, proper or not post we make. most importantly, you always try and keep trying until you really have enough knowledge and quality.

I think the overall impact of the merit system is positive for this forum. For most of us it will take longer to get to upper ranks and will depend on our skills, rather than, just seniority.

Just keep improving and you will get there.

Merit system is new forum rules.I think such as great movement and good thing for future because some people spaming in this forum by make low quality post for growing rank.Yes i agree with you at the moment rank up is more difficult but you can try to make quality post i hope you will be get some merit.

All of us in here now are having time to rank up now. Because of that merit thing. It making hard to please the people around. Some need to ask and beg for their friend to give them. I don't know how long will I stay being full members here because of that merit. I posted a lot in here but still my merit stuck to 100.

Post by: metenjean on March 14, 2018, 08:34:22 AM
We all started from the bottom line, in fact what do you need to rank up for? If you just want to ranked up to gain money or even joining bounties then you need to prove yourself that you're worthy to gain it. The merit system was implemented to insure that there is no trash topic and spamming in this forum so in that case if you really worthed to ranked up then you don't have to worry.

Moreover i think there are lots of topic asking about merit and this kind of topic more like spamming the forum and even more like asking for charity. I don't suprise if this topic make its way into trash can. No offense but if you want more merit then you should consider posting more quality topic or don't post at all if you don't think you capable at the moment. Its just asking people to dislike you more.  ;D ;D

To get a merit just one way: you should learn more about Bitcoin or cryptocurrency and post in this thread posting high quality and usable information for other people. if your posting usable and very interest I think another member in Bitcointalk will give you merit. :)
So Good Luck!!!

  of course there are, you can participate in bounty companies or airdrops, where you can get free promising coins, and then trade them on the exchange, watch the news of them very much in the telegraph ... all relevant and reliable.

I have been on the forum for two years, and to the rank of Hero was not enough just a couple of days.
And no one has sent Merita to this day.
On the one hand, it's a pity that changes are made without a vote.
But on the other hand you are here and you fell in love with the crypto currency, which is more important))

I am a bit new to Bitcoin, and I have a lot of money, I also spend a lot of time researching Bitcoin but cannot understand because Bitcoin and the market are so vast in knowledge, to get the It is more challenging to work with people who have less experience with me because most of the posts are deleted because of not enough quality.

Don't get worry buddy. It's very easy to get the merits. Just make some quality posts, you automatically get lot of merits from the senior members in this forum. In this forum there are lot of high rank members with huge merits to send to others.If you make quality post,for a single post you will get more merits.

I understand your problem, but here comes in this forums a lot of different things comparing to other forums. I am too not working on merit base system, but check in services section where you get some merit points from others.

Without mincing words, I see we are beginning to see more of spamming this forum with more of merit and no merit discussion. The merit system was for a purpose. It was to especially ensure that some useless, incoherent and destined for the trash bin post don't get anywhere. You only need 5 more to rank up and you are complaining. What about users who have none or need like 100plus and are no doubt making very good and meritable post ? And , yet they don't get to be awarded such.

Please, there are other threads already opened on merit system, kindly use those existing thread to make your contribution next time. Virtually every member rank is feeling what you are complaining about except legendary members that are smiling for now.

My point therefore is, we just do our legitimate due (quality post ) to the forum and allow the mods be the referees.


Title: Re: Feeling sad
Post by: paxaway21 on March 14, 2018, 12:05:51 PM
Not only but all of us.
We also need to make it very difficult in the forum especially with a merit system that we need to analyze to increase our ranks.


Title: Re: Feeling sad
Post by: RYXES on March 14, 2018, 12:21:12 PM
I am hitting nearly 300 posts, but I am happy with Merit system. It makes sense and really does cut down the drivel in this forum.
I do believe that they are hard to achieve and the formula they use does suggest there is only a limited amount which is not the best way.
It needs tweaking but it is a pretty good idea.
Don't feel sad, just work and help.

It's nice to be important but it is more important to be nice.

So this is what the Meta section has become, huh? a "dear diary ♥" kinda section where share their feelings about merits... *sigh*

I also feel very sorry when the price drops.
If you are taking risks, you will not be sorry.
This is the job. You will either make money or you will hurt.

What the hell are you even talking about?

Just hang in there. I know I shouldn't invalidate what you feel, but you don't have to feel sad. Compared to other Jr. Members, you're lucky that you were able to earn half of the merits that is required for you to rank up. You're halfway there, you just have to be more patient and be more persistent. Earning merits is not impossible and this is proven by you receiving some. So rather than being sad, just continue to do your best. There are more merit sources now so sooner or later you would get what you need to rank up, just make sure that you do your part so that you'll desevlrve bearing merits. If you think you need them right away, then maybe you can join some merit giveaways and contests. Good luck!

You just have to post good enriched quality, that is a must. But if you don't get merits on posts which you think deserve merits then you can bring those posts in spotlight by submitting on some threads which reward merit for quality posts. Some of these are-
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3108981.0
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3120360.0
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2827596

There are also some topics which reward you for answering simple bitcoin-related questions-

If you think that you studied hars to earn some merits and still dont get what you want, try to study more harder than before to get your target, and I think expecting merit in return by helping some people and posting high quality content is a wrong move.
In my own opinion even in real life try to do great things and never expect anything in return, just like here just keep on making quality content and help others but dont expect merit in return, dont find merits, let merit finds you. Best of luck bud! :)

I don't agree with your point. Waiting for returns are basic nature of human. It's not strange at all. However, the fact is merits will come later, suddenly (some hours, some days, or some weeks, might be months after the time users published their threads). Therefore, please stop complaining because you will get merits as long as you keep contributing to the forum.

You should spend more time on this forum; there are many threads which has answered the questions asked by the newbies. Go through these threads, it will increase your knowledge and will clear your doubts.

Your focus shouldn't be on earning the merit. Share your thoughts, start participating in constructive discussions and make quality posts. By the time, you will get the merits

Ranking up is a bit like holding Bitcoin you just need to be patient, and eventually will be rewarded.
Don't be sad about it tho, just keep plugging away you will get there in the end.

Waiting would not do anything unless you participate on hot topics that high ranker's are discussing. Its better to participate with them rather than waiting for the big apple(merit) to fall.
For the newbies, kindly read more rather than complaining about merits.

This forum is not a place to earn money only high ranking member can earn money here that probably what you are trying to say here.

I don't think this forum is for knowledge seeking and sharing only as angrily opposed by so many high ranking member here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3122415.msg32285831#msg32285831) you probably have that kind of ideal in your mind but its not what this forum administrator stands for.

Yeah, why does he need to rank up anyways? To earn money from signatures, I'm sure. Nothing wrong with that, I mean I have one myself but people shouldn't expect ''free'' money. If you want to rank up to earn more money from signature campaigns then you should work harder. People that only post to earn money should treat posting like a job, read more english, read about bitcoin or cryptos in general or be helpful to other people and you will eventually rank up.

You have been got 5 merit, how do you get it? Let's try make a good post. and we will get more merit. with the passage of time, if we really learn and more know this bitcointalk about, I think we will find a gap how to get merit. We just need to be more careful in following every material we read. Let's learn together I also want to get to the next level soon.

I'm feeling the same. Im not the one to judge my posts/comments but sometimes I was the pioneer in some news and got no merit from it. That's sad. In Economics section I'm kinda active and even with contributions around macroeconomics I still got no merit.


Title: Re: Feeling sad
Post by: Baoo on March 15, 2018, 04:57:41 PM
Simply, you should believe in yourself, learn more about Bitcoin and other fields , improve your behaviour ( quality of post..), and then you will get what you need to rank up. As well, I see that you need  only 5 merit's to become a Member. So you can do it easily and just trust in yourself.

You must also stop complaining, and believe me, if  you will still think and imagine  that getting merit points is difficult or impossible and you will continue giving some excuses, then  you will not get  what you need of points and just  think positively and work hard.

Hello my friend,

I think you (and all of users in the forum) should focus on the positive effects of merit system on the forum in long-term aspect. Theymos have no choice about this one. The forum covered with tons of shit-posts recently before the launch of merit system. Since the exponential growth of whole crypto market last year (year of 2017), more and more newcomers joined the forum, most of them joined to get free money and made this forum like to shit-show.
I strongly support merit system, despite the fact that I will be harder to ranked up after its launch.

First of all, do not get disappointed so easily. You have already achieved 5 merit points and thus reached halfway. You are still doing better than a lot of new members who have not got a single merit. Regarding getting merits for ways other than quality posts, you can try making good compilation of threads related to particular topic. Choose a topic which is not covered already.

I just rank up today at 70 activity but still I'm a Junior member because my merits are not enough, so I feel so sad..because honestly I'm having hard time earning it. I don't have much knowledge in bitcoin though I research but not all sink in my mind so its really hard for me to earn merit.. Is there any other way to earn merit except for quality posts? Please excuse my grammar.
let alone a newbie like me who may not understand much about what is discussed in this forum, maybe to ride in rank Jr, member still can but to rise in rank member or so need some merit, but I will try to understand this forum and I will try to be able to get merit.

I wish someone would give me some merits, I honestly think I deserve some merits. If anyone gave that to me, I would have used it very very wisely. I wish to give my merits to those who haven't earned any. I won't wait for a second to give my merits to others. Hope everyone benefits from this new merit system. And nobody starts to trade it.

You already got 5 merit points and this means that you have completed half the journey towards next rank (member). If you keep posting good quality posts, you will easily achieve the member rank in 1-2 months. You can utilize that time to sharpen your knowledge about bitcoins so that you make better investment decisions.

Regarding, other ways to get merit points, there are some ways but they are not ethical. Some members here are involved in buying / selling of merit points and they are getting recognized now and being punished by senior members.

Im a newbie and still in the process of learning about bitcoin.Even me I am confused how to get rank and merit but I never get sad or depressed about it coz for me I only need time to understand everything.All we need to do is do some research and comply all the said rules and regulations.After that if you learn a lot of things for sure you can make more quality works to get merits and increase your rank.

I'm playing a sad song on world's smallest violin for you. This is merit begging, I despise it even more than ass-licking for merits. Or maybe I'm wrong and you just sharing your sad feelings. Nope, still begging merits.

Maybe OP shared her/his feelings that stuck on that rank, there's nothing worry man if you stuck at that rank maybe you need to spend more time to learn a lot about on this forum. Just keep in touch those threads that have a chance to have smerit and avoid those mega threads that full of spammers and shitposters. Then, avoid those thread having repeated answers you may not get smerit theirs besides you are the one who made spam.

I feel the same with you dude. I think its very very hard to get merits. Can people use their time to click our comments and give us merit. Im seeing a jr memver has 100+ activity but 0 merit. Even we tried to give the best we can. Other commenting its easy if you are good in making topic. Hope its true when i got knowledge about crypto and post helpful topics

They wouldn't have come up with this thought if there was to be any other way of getting Merits except for quality posting.
So, there is only one other way, and that is to get out of this forum. You either earn Merits or gtfo of here, because if you can't earn Merits, you are stuck in that rank forever, and I know you can't bear that because you are here only to earn a few bucks and not growing your rank means no money, or less money. And I doubt someone not looking for money in this forum cares to be sad just because he hasn't ranked up just yet. What's the hurry for getting promoted if you are just here to learn? But you are not, right? Hell yeah!

Sorry for everything I said if that hurt you. I really don't want to make you sadder, but I gotta be honest, you know.

Merits are always welcome  ;D thus, quoting a post of mine I believe is worthy.

I'm definitely happy with the new system. By close observations, a person can clearly see that the majority of the people on this forum don't even know what a quality post is. Most of them think "more characters = higher post quality", and just because of this false assumption they start making much more longer and way more useless posts to make them look like quality posts, while the quality of a post has nothing to do with its quantity of length.
Merit system can be (if not used with partiality) a permanent full stop for all those accounts created for nothing else but joining Signature Campaigns. And that thus leads to less spam, IMO.

I mentioned on the main thread that a downfall to this sort of system is that people who start the topics are going to get a lot more merits than anyone posting in existing discussion. This will likely lead to people posting new threads which are duplicates from others in attempt to earn more merits.

People creating duplicate or useless threads in order to get Merits would not get any, because that is why this system is implemented. If the duplicate or spam threads start to get Merits then there is no use of the system as there is no restriction for anyone from any rank on creating threads.

I think merit is an unofficial judgement where most of the people gives merit to those well-known campaign managers to make sure that those managers will include them in their next signature campaign . and how about those newbies and junior members who have quality post . are they eligible to rank up?

Hopefully in future the campaigns will require Extra Merit Points (Beside the ones already given for each rank on implementation of the system) to join along with the rank. And if that happens, there will be no use of Meriting well-known signature campaign managers to get into their campaigns if you yourself have none.
About newbies and jr. members with high quality posts; you can already find them having Merits. My profile is an example of that. So yes, we can rank up if we deserve to, and if we don't, we won't.

quite an arrogant post for merit begar. the guy is sad already dont be so mean

You're not the only one. There are tons of user like you feeling that they will be stuck at their current rank because of the merit system but what they don't realize how the system will benefit them in the long run.

My advice for starters, avoid staying at "Bitcoin Discussion". I'm not saying all threads there are all useless but most of it is since it is mostly made out of newbies who have no initiative to do his/her own research first. Then put a lot of effort on researching about interesting topics that you can share or answer some topics in the threads that will be really helpful not only to the OP but for other members as well.

So by your own admission you have little knowledge about bitcoin and you apologize for your bad grammar--and for some inexplicable reason you're "sad" because you're not at the rank you think you should be at.

Give me a break--and go cry your eyes out in a dark corner somewhere.  Probably in Manila or a suburb thereof.

By your own words it should be obvious that you're the type of person who 1) Is only here for the bounties, and 2) The merit system was designed to induce unrelenting lachrymation in.  So great!  All is good in the world, and the system is working as designed.
