Bitcoin Forum

Hi everybody
I'm a new member of this forum (3 months), I find that many people in this forum need "Merit" to do signature campaigns rather than having a forum with quality posts (less posts spam).Try to help newcomers to this forum, create quality articles, create help articles like posting images on forums, creating forum posts, tips for your friends on the forum. v... v. Do not think much about merit, you will find things easier (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=39.0)
This is also a spam post. But it makes me feel relieved to say what I think about merit, I know only some people like that.
Sorry for my English not good

This is like the thousandth post we have had where someone mentioned something similar. I wonder if people are intentionally posting these in an attempt to gain merit, as when merit first launched, I recall these type of posts getting a few merits.

Join this community to improve your English language.  (http://fittotalk.com/english-talk/index.php) We don't care about signature campaign having a more merit because over all sig camp is not a forum problem.

Yep, everything you wrote in this post has been said before, and this thread should be trashcanned.  I'm putting you on ignore, and I'd advise everyone here who has a brain in their skull to do likewise.  This is nothing more than a long-winded merit-begging thread, and it's obvious.

Most signature campaigners are total spammers and don't deserve any merit at all.  And when I say "most", I absolutely mean it.  Those altcoin campaigns will take pretty much anybody with fingers that can tap out 30 posts/week, and you don't see that many people who have a good grasp of English (or cryptocurrency) applying to them.  They shouldn't be given merit out of some misplaced sense of pity.  What they should get is a permaban, but I know that's not going to happen.

It does make me smile when they get caught with alt accounts in the same campaign.  The resulting redness of their trust page puts a gleam in my eye.

Thank you I will join it

So the first thing that comes to your mind while on this forum is that signature campaigns? Dont you ever think of what the idea of making forum is in the first place? Its about disucssion and answering questions and doubts of fellow members who are unified by some topic - in this case it was bitcoin. (till signature campaigns came into existence). Pretty soon it changed over to hunting down merits and now its English language skills.

LMAO if you come to this forum trying to learn English better just so you can spam your signature then you need to get a life or leave this forum.

Then why did you post it? ::)

Being Passive eh?

We must already have a negative merit to lead like (Trust) type -10 fu**merit from you write off 1 merit, if you wrote a bad post or copy post... or you bot

Yup, you need certain number of posts and merits to be able to rank up and join on signature campaign. This merit system was launched to prevent spamming and to improve the quality of posts that we users are posting. Don't be bothered with this merit system. Do your best and try to improve the quality of topics that you are posting. There are some users out there who were only new on this forum, and started from scratch but were able to get merit and ranked up. You can also be like them. Read a lot and always be updated so you can contribute new knowledge to the bitcoin community.

You know what that question is already ask before but if you want a good answer you can ask it again... It is not bad to ask a question if you know it can help you to understand a lots about merit... And also if you needed that information atleast you are honest to yourself you neede it and you are still seeking for a best answer...  But enough for that...  Your question is about the merit system... If you want a further information just scan it and read it patiently... There are a lots of related info about merit and also for me merit is not really needed in participating signature bounty campaign as long as you are qualified enough and you do a regular quality post... You can join in campaign....

The thing is most of the people who have recently joined this forum don't deserve to rank up.  They don't know what's going on in crypto, they're not even really supporting a project with passion anymore (yes even the sh*t coins) unlike the days of old where you can see witty banter, drama, and some action in the altcoin section everyday.

Now there's just mindless, forced, droney, I don't know what you call it really...  Basically the posts are done mostly by dumb people tbh.  Sorry for being blunt about it but that's how I see it.

The trolls and sock puppets of before were waaay better.  And ironically they even gave the forum some flavor.

This platform is primarily for bitcoin knowledge sharing, after that, it is a forum for another type promotional campaign.
So keep posting your knowledge about the bitcoin and also read the other quality post to enhance their knowledge.
After that, you can know, what type of post will get the merit.

here is the link to know what type of post got recently merit:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=merit;stats=recent

After seeing it, you will get,  what type of post you should write for getting the merit.

You may open up any query related to forum doubt on this section mate. Please do not worry for that. I see your still in Junior member rank so expecting to participate in the BTC payable signature campaign you need to have member rank atleast to part of that.

Then Merit has been introduced to reduce shit quality posts and stop more number of spam thread. Even today I see that moderators deleting the spam threads I guess. If you want to see the better example for it. You may go to mining section, there mprep delete the generic queries on mining related queries there.
For campaigning merits is part of the preference but along with that managers use to check your show posts page and confirm you are making valid posts or just throwing the answers.

There's no denying that all you mention is true, this is not the first time seeing a post that is all about merit system. Seeing same post is a bit annoying because the topic is already mentioned and discussed in previous post created in this forum. I think his motive here is getting a merit. Don't ask for merit work for it and merit will chase you sooner or later.

 Yes i think need more merit because if you have more merit you earn more stakes or tokens for signatures campaign..so i will work hard  here in bitcointalk to get merit...

Yeah, how's that working out for you?

You're a total shitposter, as evidence by the repetitive, zero-thought post above.  If you think anyone is going to give you merit for that shit, you need to dunk your face in some ice water and wake up.  Not gonna happen.

Really?  You have to practice it here?  Guaranteed if you weren't getting paid to be here, you'd have no interest in either learning English or in crypto.  Also, your post has nothing to do with this thread.

your rigth sir. i actualy relate what you say's about. its good to be think onther topic and no one similar of this furom thats why every member can learn about new things.

What? You know that your post is a spam yet you still post it? What is wrong with people nowadays? You can at least talk about your rant in the offcial topic about merit made by theymos, yet you made new topic for it. Next level of spam?

As long as they have a to post no matter it is spam or shitpost just to increase their current post, that's what mostly newbie rank I have seen on the forum. They keep trolling and make shitpost thread, that is more work to moderator just to delete their spam post everywhere in the forum.
For sure I know what is the purpose why OP is here in meta section hoping just to have..... ;D

Yes they are doing this with the purpose of getting merits.
I've seen in early days of the merit system this strategy(Talking about merits to get merits) was very successful in  earning merits.

Now people are trying more creative methods like being a good adviser(Like this thread).  ;)

Those times are long gone man. Go away

 Not all signature campaign  need merit ,  some bounty accept newbie and jr member .. but if you want more stakes you should active in forum or work hard for the merit ..

Yeah and you are a confirmed classical shitposter who does not care about the level of shiposts that occur in this forum and is only interested in ranking up their account.

How do you work hard for merits? I have heard people work hard for money work hard for a job but hard for a merit? Does it include pulling the legs of some "specific people" or being an asslicker? - please enlighten me. (On the contrary no need to because I am sure you will never reply to this thread)

coming from someone who has poor English and no merits. I wouldn't recommend taking the advice he gives..

I'm really amazed at the amount of Whining that Merits has generated. I don't think you need to worry about signature Campains with the audition you gave with your post it'll be years till you're selected actually kidding you won't lol.

However in reference to your point Merits is the new standard by which a applicant is judged *assuming* that higher merits will mean he posts constructive and quality posts, also Merits is not only the sole criteria for being selected, which threads you post also makes a difference. Say for e.g. You have tons of merits but yours posts are restricted to local board you'll never get selected.

I see various says that merits are only for the people with good english. I do not think this forum grammer session. But after some people comes with the grammer advice and saying they cannot survive without good english here.
I have worked in some International customer care center but people Australia, US and UK not having proper sense of english as well since they are native speaker but newbie and people from various countries giving some decent english but why they cannot survive mate.
If you are good at the blockchain and domain knowledge you can assist with your post. Nothing else needed. Merits has been shared to you if any other like your post nothing else.

Being good in English does not always mean that the post is going to be merited. Again writing a post in bad English may make the merit sources look away in search of other posts to merit. Merit was never intended to be the English-lesson pressure on members. We have the local boards and local merit sources for that.

It is not a matter of survival here. You can "survive" here with bad English and zero merits.

Like is not equal to Merit. This is not faceache, twatter or instahater (which are the modern online cancer)

Old members here have been helping newcomers in this forum but posting topic like these have been repetitive that it doesn't look good to other members because it is  spamming the forum. There are already many helpful informative Topics and Tips in making good posts created for beginners here and all they have to do is explore the forum instead of posting like this. Isn't exploring the first thing you should do when you are in a new place or you want to be spoon fed by the old members?

Merits are made to encourage people in creating quality and helpful posts because no matter what you post if it is considered spam then it will always be deleted as soon as the moderators see them. Receiving merits then is like a reward because you made a post that deserves it and it is now a requirement in ranking up aside from activity count though we cannot expect that we will receive merits for every posts we make whether or not it has quality.

We cannot stop people if they want to join campaigns because this is another feature of the forum but I believe many of them are getting kicked out of the campaign probably because most of their posts are not qualifying or they are just spamming the topics.

Admittance is the first step towards getting remedy/solution. Since you know you lag in this language, I suggest you google English Language texts - make it a must to search out "Common Mistakes in English Language" or English Without Tears" these are good reads for beginners.

Back to the merit palaver, it isn't true that all signature campaigns make merit a condition for enrolment. Just a few campaigns do. Besides that, it should be a good feeling for you making a conceited effort to be constructive in your posts.

This post mentioned about merit again?. This is completely waste of time as there is already provided in bounty campains that if your rank is higher you would receive more stakes and admin post already a thread on rank requirements. This topic will be good if it is all about sharing information and tips on creating good quality or constructive post that will surely help newcomers and less experienced members.
