I don’t usually help altcoin people but I read so many of your posts where you were helping people learn about mining that I feel compelled to help you. I have a soft spot for miners. You know it’s possible to mine bitcoin too. LOL
20 merit awarded.

I’m sorry but I can’t help you. You are clearly nothing but a bounty hunter.

Yes, it’s still active and you qualify. I’ve just been very busy lately and I’m not responding to anyone that can disqualify themselves if they just read the OP. 20 merit awarded.

I’m sorry, you don’t qualify according to the rules of this thread.

I’ll give you the rest because your posts have improved and your more actively engaged in conversations. Keep posting the way you are and you should have no problem ranking up. 10 merit awarded.

I’m not posting this in the OP because no one completely reads that anyway. They always just read the last few pages.

I’m going to be busy with medical issues for the next couple of weeks. I will continue to check this thread at least every other day. I will review all requests but may not respond quickly.

If you are not a Full member, Sr. Member or Hero Member I’m just going to ignore you because I will have limited time.

If I scan through the first 10 or so pages of your post history and see mostly posts in Twitter, Facebook, bounty or signature campaigns I’m just going to ignore you. The same is true if most of your posts are in altcoin pump n dump threads.

Also realize, if you post in this thread you are, by default, asking me to review your post history. If I see that you are a potential scammer, posting under an account purchased shortly after a forum hack or routinely violating any forum rules I will report you to a moderator. Trust me, it’s easier to recognize than you think it is.

Thank you and good luck.

I’m sorry but you, Lunarics and hasbihafis don’t qualify according to the rules of this thread.

I’m sorry but I can’t help you. I don’t speak any French at all and the posts you have in English are all in altcoin threads.

You've definitely never just posted one liners. Your active in signature campaigns and certainly posting for that purpose but they’re valid and engaged posts. English is a second language for you and your consistent posting seems to slowly be improving your vocabulary. I don’t want to discourage you from continuing that activity. I found at least 20 posts that could reasonably have received 1 merit. 20 merit awarded.

It’s not that you’re lacking anything in particular. Half of your posts are in a language I don’t speak and your a bounty hunter. I don’t give merit to anyone using the forum mainly to make money. This forum is mainly for discussion and the free exchange of ideas with making money as a small sidebar, not the other way around.
I’m sorry but I can’t help you.

You seem to be equally a bitcoiner and an altcoin supporter. Your post quality is very good. You are very helpful to newbies and easily have 20 posts that could reasonably have received 1 merit. 20 merit awarded.

I’m sorry, I can’t help you. You say yourself in several posts that the only reason you are on this forum is to make money. That’s the pollution that the merit system is supposed to stop.

Thank you, there are so many people supporting the system and my efforts that there’s at least a reasonable chance it will be successful. There are many other merit sources giving out merit all over the forum. These people will keep the forum members that are deserving moving up in rank.

It’s not that I don’t see the value of other currency designs. I understand Ripple. It’s perfect for banks. It can help banks maintain their superiority in the market and help them keep crushing the little guy at every turn. I understand the desire for a truly anonymous currency. While I wouldn’t use it, many people could achieve a higher level of freedom using one of those coins. I even see the appeal in pump n dump coins. Who wouldn’t want to be the early adopter that gets rich. Litecoin could be perfect for certain low cost applications like buying coffee. When I lived in Europe many years ago I routinely kept several different currencies in my pocket because I lived in a border town and may cross several borders in a day. Asking average people to use two complicated cryptocurrencies for different transaction types is just asking too much.

If we were talking about a new efficient type of light bulb in a world where everyone owns a light bulb it wouldn’t matter how much competition there is because almost everyone in the world is a potential user/customer. Cryptocurrency does not fit into that broad category of usage. There is a very small finite number of people willing to jump through the hoops necessary to use any cryptocurrency. Bitcoin is already established and time tested. It has faults that can be corrected without chucking out the whole system and starting over. Bitcoin is a financial product just like any other financial product. It has lots of competition already without members of this community creating more. As an average guy, I need to decide that I’m going to use Bitcoin instead of PayPal, Amazon Payments, ApplePay, Alipay, Dwolla, Payoneer or any one of dozens more. Once I’ve decided on cryptocurrency, now I have to decide on which one. Do I use Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin Gold, Litecoin and on and on. Why are we, the people that supposedly support cryptocurrency, creating more confusion for the average financial instrument customer? Are we trying to keep cryptocurrency from ever becoming mainstream? It just makes no logical sense to me.

Thank you for the kind words. I hope the merit system succeeds. This forum should be a place where people can discuss and brainstorm about cryptocurrency. I’ve watched some amazing, earth shattering creations slowly develop in the threads of this forum. That place no longer exists. This forum has become nothing more than a day job for get rich quick scammers, advertisers and their lackeys. The merit system might help. Only time will tell.

Why are all of you surprised that Gates would say something like this? Most of Gates wealth and prosperity came from government contracts. That viewpoint supports the US government.

The most heinous murderer in the world is the US Government. They imprison more of their own citizens than any other country in the world, relegating their citizens to a torturous life at the hands of desperate people. They have drone striked women and children without a declaration of war. They are the only country in the world to have used a nuclear bomb on human beings (men, women and children noncombatants).

The USA wants all of your financial transactions transparent so they can more easily steal your money (that’s the financial crime the USA wants to control). Under the umbrella of “civil forfeiture,” officers of the law in the USA confiscate millions of dollars in cash from thousands of innocent individuals every year.

The US Government is the largest terrorist organization in the world (controlling over 3/4 of the world through financial handouts, food handouts, political manipulation, threats, drone strikes, law enforcement actions or direct military involvement).

The largest drug dealer in the world is the US big pharma industry that controls the FDA. Tens of thousands of people every year are addicted to painkillers legally prescribed in the USA.

The largest purchaser and user of guns and bombs in the world is the USA. I’d say, the US Government is a terrorist that kills people 'in a fairly direct way'. 

Bitcoin is just leveling the playing field and it’s pissing off the biggest bully on the block.

Can you really trust someone with the Tardis as an avatar? Dr. Who fans are taking over the world and it kind of scares me. LOL

He’s right though, any activity assigned to receiving merit, other than post quality, opens the system up to being gamed.

You’re a Facebook bounty hunter that started posting in other threads since the merit system was implemented. Sorry, but I can’t help you.

I actually can’t help you because you don’t fit within the guidelines of the thread but you should be able to get merit here. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2970278.0

I was able to find 20 posts that could have received 1 merit. You’re going to need to post a lot more to get the rest of the merit you need to rank up. 20 merit awarded.
