Merit is limited and there are already bunches of Merit Abusers, just think about how if Merit become "Unlimited".

Agreed. These Merit Abusers will become rich for sure.

Hi buddy, I recommend Cobalt9317 if you were looking for a Filipino Signature Designer.
Here is his Thread and Portfolio as well https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2837247.0
Price of Signatures depend on the designer and customer's deal. But as far as I know, the minimum price of Signature Designs is 0.005 to 0.003 Bitcoins.

Oops, looks like you missed something. There are also some Signature Campaigns that can be found here Marketplace >> Services

Just one more thing fellow Filipinos, Never do spamming just to earn money

Well, looks like I know the reason why some of your posts has been deleted. I've checked all of your posts and 17/32 of your posts are made in Megathreads. Do you know what Megathread is? It is a thread created long ago and now flooded with spam posts like replies that has been posted hundred times. And it seems like you love posting to these threads and enjoying a spamming party with other spammers.

Well that's the reason why some of your posts are deleted. It is because they are spam posts.
 I'm sorry but I don't believe you. What I've seen to your post history proves that you do...

Improve yourself if you really want your posts to stay and if you also like to rank up

Lock this thread now. Your question is already answered.


And please

I also has a thread with members that awaits your Negative Feedback

To OP,
I hope your account is not an Alt account as well, because I gave you my precious 1 Merit for doing a good job

Case 3: Green Trusted Member

May 8, 2018
Members connected in this illegal activity :
Username: MintDice
                     MintDiceSupport
                     theskillzdatklls

In this case, there is a "Merit trading" happened, and guess what? it seems like there is someone green trusted member involved behind this two account.

Proof: Merit Summary
1.

3.
Additional evidences/proofs will be posted in conclusion.

Conclusion :
As we can see in "Proof: Merit Summary" number 1. MitDice sent 10 Merits to MintDiceSupport which is a jr. Member before and already ranked up to Member because of the 10 Merits received, and is obviously an alt account.
Just check out this post.

Is this post really is Meritous of 10 Merits? I guess it isn't because it is just a one liner post and doesn't contain any Meritous information. Of course, MintDice just sent it to rank up his alt account. Which is WRONG.

This proves that there is only 1 owner of this two account. Wait, oh there's more! Lets reveal everything. Let's proceed.

Besides from this Merit Abuse from these two account. There is another account which is involved in this illegal activity and is connected to these two accounts.


This is what I found in my investigation. You can also see it here
While checking up the Merit history of these two accounts. I found out this account theskillzdatklls who is also part of this illegal activity. And guess what? This member is a Green Trusted Member.

Back to January 28, 2018, He sent 20 Merits to MintDice to this post that doesn't really deserve a worth of 20 Merits.

And a possible reason why MintDice ranked up to Member.

Well, it doesn't end up here. Back in February 26,2018 (What the? It's our monthsary day) theskillzdatklls sent another 20 Merits (Hero Members really are rich in sMerits and some are just using it for illegal   ) to this post by MintDice

https://i.imgur.com/gBe9s2m.jpg
Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2702628.msg27687178#msg27687178

And like the other posts, it doesn't deserve 20 Merits.

And based on my observations, I can't really tell but, it is possible that theskillzdatklls is the owner of MintDice and MintDiceSupport and is only created to support Mintdice.com. How do I know? Check this picture.

https://i.imgur.com/gwT6bCG.jpg

As we can see, theskillzdatklls has a link to Mintdice.com and seems like supporting it as well. Then it is possible that theskillzdatklls is the owner of MintDice and MintDiceSupport. The only reason is because
1. Those three accounts are connected to mintdice.com
2. theskillzdatklls transferred 40 Merits to MintDice and what's the reason? Well, Because it is his alt account. This proves everything


Well, like other cases. What happened here is "Merit Abuse" and these accounts should receive a punishment

This activity is 100% GUILTY
Complains from these three members/accounts (With one owner)  are open

Still no update 

Of course it's important, but as you can see, we can't control people who make spam posts. Even there is a Merit System to reduce spam posts, it seems like shitposters still doing the same thing, and that is "Spamming in the Forum".
They can spam because they are satisfied to their ranks and I think some Members can earn money already from their ranks that's why they don't care about creating good posts to receive Merits. But time will pass and they will realised that they should rank up too and they will be force to write quality posts. 

And as you can also see, there are lot of members who already ranked up because of creating good quality posts, it only means that Merit System is working fine to those people who creates good posts and also working fine from preventing spammers to rank up.
Actually it's, "1000s".

Just keep them doing the same thing. Although Merit system has been implemented intending to eliminate spam posts, people who post shitpost and spam posts will not really decrease. Actually there is something you should know about the real purpose of Merit System.

Merit System intentionally is not implemented to eliminate spam post and spam posters, it is implemented to keep those shitposters to stay at the ranks forever. They will only rank up if they make good quality posts but if not, it's their choice to suffer at their present rank forever while watching other members moving up the ranking. We all know that spam posts will never decrease, this system prevents those members (shitposters) from ranking up if they don't really deserve it

Well, looks like MintDice and MintDiceSupport is not the only person behind this illegal Merit tramsaction or should I call "Merit Abuse".

I conducted some investigation and here is what I found.
This account theskillzdatklls is the real owner of this two alt account (MintDice and MintDiceSupport) and he/she just sent 20 + 20 (40) Merits to MintDiceSupport



Here is the proof that theskillzdatklls is the owner of these two alt account.


As you can see, they are all connected to the same site which is Mintdice.com so there is no doubt that this is the owner. No one will send 40 Merits to anyone except if the account that will receive Merits is his/her alt account.

Everything is clear as I stated my conclusions and evidence. This three accounts are guilty. What happened here is a "Merit Abuse" and they must receive their punishment.

I will add this to my report.

Hi Sir Yahoo62278, am I still applicable to join you campaign?

There is only one reason why your posts in Politics and Society has been deleted.
It is because there is a new Moderator for Politics and Society section which is Sir. Flying Hellfish and he is taking action to spam posts by deleting them. You know what I mean?

You should have included the profile link of those two accounts and the link of the post. So that Mods can take action if they are really guilty

Since your thread doesn't contain any important information, this will be considered as a spam thread.

Updated.
Case 2: Rank it up... And I agreed.
May 3, 2018
Members connected in this illegal activity :
Username: Stealth8368
                    LST123
                    AM2018
                  
In this case Stealth8368 sent 10 Merits to the posts of two NEWBIES. There's nothing wrong isn't? Well, go check my conclusions.

Proof: Merit Summary

1.
2.
3.
Additional evidences/proofs will be posted in conclusion.

Conclusion :

As what I said earlier, Stealth8368 sent 10 Merits to LST123 and AM2018 which is both Newbies.

This post of LST123 received 10 Merits from Stealth8368 while it doesn't deserve the certain amount of Merits

Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2056317.msg36155617#msg36155617

This is too suspicious. As you can see, this post is a total spam posted in a thread back in July 31,2017 which is already a Megathread with spam posts.
And there's more, LST123 was recently created (May 2,2018) which means this account is a new account and a possible alt account of Stealth8368. It only has 2 posts and guess what? With 10 Merits. Seriously? Even nullius didn't received 10 Merits when he only got 2 posts and I'm pretty sure that there is no person who will send 10 merits to a Newbie with just 2 post Although its posts is constructive or not.
Looks like Stealth8368 is preparing LST123's future to become a Member having no trouble in receiving Merits to rank up.

LST123 obviously is an Alt account of Stealth8368 and what happened is a "Merit Abuse" for sending Merits to his alt account.

Update: For another proof. Stealth8368 and LST123 are both interested and posting in the same thread which means it is possible that the owner of these two accounts is only 1 person.

This activity is 100% GUILTY
Complains from these two members are open
(Stealth8368 will surely find a way just to prove that both account is online simultaneously and can post simultaneously as well. Well, lets see what you got. See you in the accusation)

---

Oops we're not done yet. Aside from the Merit abuse from Stealth8368 and LST123, there is one more possible Merit abuse happened and Stealth8368 is still involved.

In this case, Stealth8368 (again) sent 10 Merits to AM2018 to this post

Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2056317.msg36248592#msg36248592
I can't tell that AM2018 is also an alt account but what happened is still a Merit abuse.

Sir theymos stated that
And as what we can see, AM2018's post is not a High Quality Post and I believe that Stealth8368 Merited it because he only agreed with it,which is still wrong

This activity is 100% GUILTY
Complains from these two members are open

Hmmm, well yeah I think so too.

Not accepted

Based on your Negative Trust ratings. You received a Negative Trust from DarkStar_ because of this


You've run a campaign last August 14, 2017 with a high rate of payments but there is no escrow so it means your campaign is a little suspicious to be a scam. DarkStar_ only wants you to hire escrow thats why he gave you a red trust. He also states that he will remove your Negative Trust once you hired an escrow but the problem is. That campaign was already a long time ago.

You should talk to him

Being alone has nothing to do why you can't receive any Merits. What do you think of me? I already got 40 Merits and do you think that I get it from my friends? Well, its NO. I have no friends to give me Merits and if there are, I will not doing to ask them for Merit.

With just diligence + effort + knowledge. You will be rewarded.

As you can see, you don't need to have friends just to get Merits, in order to get one (or even more), you just need to improve your posts and make it more valuable, make it constructive until it become a "Good Quality Posts". This is where other members will be interested to your posts and your posts will have a higher chance of possibility to be Merited. See? There's no need for friends, you will only end up abusing Merits if you were caught asking/begging Merits to people you knew. You will only receive a reward of Negative trust if you do so.

Come one buddy, It's really hard to earn Merits but with a little hard work, it's not impossible for you to achieve your desired rank. Just like nullius, iasenko athan (I forgot the name) and other Members who ranked up because of making Good Posts.


But I do agree to the part where, Merit really is so unfair.
Sir theymos stated that
but this is usually what happens. People give away their Merits for just something that they agreed.
For example:




(No offense to the owner of the post which is Mr. *******. I just used it as an example)
Can you imagine it? Are these examples really need to be Merited? Wake up guys.
These posts doesn't deserve any Merit but because of some people agreed with it, it received Merits. While there are lot of Good Quality Post out there seeking for Merit but what? They can't even receive one. Unfair isn't?

That's why I agreed that Merit is a little unfair, usually to those members whose posts are always being ignored by other Members.

Hi Sir Joe, I'm planning to join a Signature Campaign since round 7 (round that I joined) has been paused. If I'm accepted, I will be out for the contest and I will remove my Signature. I hope you still consider me to have a position in any place in your contest (assuming that I deserve any place). I will only remove my Signature once I'm accepted in a campaign. But if no campaign accepts me. I will keep wearing it.

Thanks
