this is evry thing about Merit

What is Merit?

Merit is a new system created in order to reward quality contributions to the forum. Now to rise through ranks you will also need to acquire Merit in addition to Activity.

How do I receive merit?

You are awarded merit by people of the community if they find your post helpful or informative.

How do I send Merit?

There is a +Merit button at the top right of every post. To give merit click on it and follow the instructions.

What is the difference between Merit and sMerit?

There are two types of Merit. You cannot send your merits, just sMerit. For every Merit you receive you will have 0.5 spendable merit to reward posts as you see fit.

Can I ask for merit?

There is no need to do this and this behaviour is usually seen as 'merit begging' which is frowned upon by the community and may lead to you receiving negative feedback. Keep making quality, constructive posts and you will surely be rewarded over time.

Can I sell merit?

Selling merit is disallowed.

Can I give merit to my alt accounts?

No, this is frowned upon and will almost certainly lead to you receiving negative feedback if discovered.

Can I be demerited or lose merit?

No, not currently. Even if your post is removed the merit will still stay.

What is a merit source?

There are a certain number of special Merit sources who receive additional amounts of merit to give away. The list is not publicly available but is know to Staff.

How do I become a merit source?

As per theymos' instructions:

So if I understood well,everytime I want to receive coins I have to generate a new address and not use the previous generated address that has been used for the last transaction I received?
Not necessarily. You can use the same address. But it's recommended to use an address for each transaction since this increases your privacy.

It could be true that nuked accounts contrubute in this way, but nuked "newbie" or whatever rank of accounts who get "nuked' can not amount to over a million "brand news" , i do not believe that mods are so active in banning,or are they ?
I can't say. Whoever, they tend to ban A LOT of users. And there are more Newbies spamming the forum than you probably know.

Here is a post from Loyce where he lists 567 users who need a ban (I assume most are Newbies): https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4720640.msg42653191#msg42653191
Here are more ~600: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4720640.msg42653763#msg42653763
Here are more 2751: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4720640.msg42773062#msg42773062

And there are many many more...
12044  Other / Meta / Re: Lets go deeper in "brand new" and " newbie" statistics on: July 27, 2018, 05:26:08 PM
Maybe the "Never" activity means that they registered their accounts but never logged in.

Also, one of the probable reasons why there are so many Brand New accounts is that when a Newbie gets nuked, all his posts are deleted, so they go back to the Brand New rank.

To be fair, MEW's domain was "taken over" for some users due to the temporary DNS hack. Which means that some users who accessed the MEW domain where accessing a phishing website (even if it was showing as insecure).

The definitive solution is to download MEW's source code[1] and run it locally on your computer.

12046  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: I don't see "Nano" on Ledger Live when adding an account on: July 27, 2018, 02:25:15 AM
Nano isn't supported natively in the Live wallet. You can only install the app on your Ledger device, but not receive/send/manage from the desktop wallet.

You will need to use an external app (e.g: Nanovault).

Is there any way if I sent correct amount in regard to transaction fee?  I'm starting to wonder if the transfer fee made it short of payment.
Get the payment address and search for it in a blockchain explorer.

E.g: https://www.blockchain.com/explorer/address/BITCOIN-ADDRESS-HERE

See which amount arrived at the address.

Do you mean Vcash (XVC)? I'm sorry but if you bought this coin, you sure deserve the loss.

The main dev of the project abandoned the coin some time ago and the coin is practically dead. I don't know why anyone would buy this coin, because it was pretty obvious that the exchanges would start to delist after some time (dead project, low trading volume, etc...).

I guess it isn't allowed.

Incentivizing posting within one or several threads via low effort tasks (e.g. signups or proof of participation for liking, following, subscribing, retweeting, tweeting a single tweet, joining a channel or group, etc.) is not allowed as it falls under the "no altcoin giveaways" rule (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2103687.0):
12051  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum wallet not synchronizing on: July 25, 2018, 11:01:44 PM
I know, I only use this computer for small transactions of less than 100 dollars, I have another laptop with windows 10 for more security.
Then, either use Electrum 3.0 (which AFAIK it's the latest version that supports Vista - still not recommended) or update it to Windows 10.
12052  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum wallet not synchronizing on: July 25, 2018, 10:47:08 PM
windows vista
Well, that's the issue. Vista isn't supported anymore.

Honestly, why are you still that outdated? Microsoft stopped supporting Vista more than 1 year ago. Which means that you will not receive new security updates or get any support for most softwares. You shouldn't be storing Bitcoins in an OS that no longer receives security updates. Just update to Windows 10.

Which OS are you using? (please be specific)
12054  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum wallet not synchronizing on: July 25, 2018, 09:55:24 PM
How to I go about upgrading it and importing my old wallet?
Which OS are you using? Just install the latest version.

- If you are on Windows, just download the latest file on the website[1] and run it.

- If you are on Linux, run the commands mentioned in the website:
Code:
sudo apt-get install python3-setuptools python3-pyqt5 python3-pip
sudo pip3 install https://download.electrum.org/3.2.2/Electrum-3.2.2.tar.gz

P.S: You should always have your seed backed up (even before upgrading Electrum). So if you don't, just do it right now.

12055  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum wallet not synchronizing on: July 25, 2018, 09:40:36 PM
Why are you using an outdated version? Electrum had some major vulnerabilities that have been fixed recently. Besides the synchronizing issues that tend to happen in the 2.x.x versions.

Please upgrade your Electrum wallet to the latest version ASAP: https://electrum.org/#download

12057  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: If someone gives negative feedback for enmity, What is the solution? on: July 25, 2018, 06:34:44 PM
Untrusted feedbacks are useless. Any user can give a untrusted positive/negative feedback, but they will be worthless, so you don't need to care about it.

Whoever, if you receive a truly "illegal" negative trust from a DT2 user (which feedback matters, since they are trusted by default), you can just contact who has him in his DT list so they can take measures.
12058  Other / Meta / Re: @Mods, Deleted post by mistake, can it be recovered? on: July 25, 2018, 05:22:00 PM
Maybe you can find the post in your Drafts?

Everything you wrote in the last 7 days should be there (up to 100 drafts).
12059  Other / Meta / Re: Seeking reporter badge images on: July 25, 2018, 03:41:55 PM
I like BTCforjoe's idea, but for me it is better to add the symbol beside the user name. So it will be like a verified account in other social media, which is good i think.
The whole reporter badge idea has nothing to do with "verifying" an account. This will only help scammers who want to impersonate someone else.

After locking your account, follow the instructions on this thread: Recovering hacked accounts or accounts with lost passwords
