Length != Quality

Sometimes the ability to convey a point concisely is far more important than an essay that fails to deliver any meaning. Merit is in the eye of the beholder, I'm sure the sources will each have a slightly different interpretation as to what that is. In my eyes making a positive contribution to the forum and Bitcoin community is equally important as technical knowledge.

That is not a good idea in my opinion. Basically i agree on why did theymos didn't add the demerit function. We have a report to moderator option that we could use if we ever saw someone trying to post a garbage. Deleting someones post is basically the job of the mods. Allowing users to delete posts without due process will be so unethical tho. Will you allow someone to discredit your post without having a due process? Obviously not

I do like this new system of ranking up. It will certainly help in stopping spam, and maybe even alt accounts. Although some people might go more aggressive and make multiple accounts to cross merit their posts and rank up. Other thing that is sure to happen is BCT members creating telegram groups to cross merit each other. This system is pretty much like Steemit, and will certainly be abused. Higher ranks means more money and so money grabbers will surely unite! I merit you, you merit me. That's what gonna happen.

Clearly higher ranked members have got a huge relief here. They won't have to go through the struggling period!!

As for me, I will be meriting good posts made by lower ranked members so that they can also climb the ranks. The only issue is that "high-quality post" is a very subjective topic. What is a high quality post? Is it a post with lots of expertise and 100% correct English/local language (in local board)? Is it a post with 1000+ words? Is it a post made by a member with all green trust? If these things make up for a high quality post then I guess most members will never rank up, which might be very disappointing for many members as most of them (including me) are not crypto experts, but crypto enthusiasts.

So overall, I think the intention behind merit system is very good, but it will now create a new class of Bitcointalk members, known as merit farmers! No system is perfect and I hope the benefits of this system outweigh its drawbacks.

I like this new ranking requirement.  It helps cleans up the forum.  I think many people will be stuck at Full Member rank permanently due to this change.

why should a person give away 20 €. maybe the tokens in the park are worth $ 20. but they can also be worth $ 0.01. people read it and think they have a super airdrop here. and later they do not even get that airdrop token because the Dev ran away

May i know what mean by 100BV to receive entire bounty? any example of this? i'm afraid to miss out.

Anyone heard about cryptoxchanger airdrop?

We've moved to Stellar. We need an estimated 1 month to finish all and to initiate the coin sale and XPR distribution.

if you hold Ethereum based PRN You will receive an equivalent of XPR soon - make sure you have 100 BV to get the entire Bounty.
Please keep your ERC20 token - even not part of the official PR.network, it is still an important part of our legacy.

Just to confirm! We work hard Token exchange is ready! The token factory is on the way!

Yesterday we could see demos of the Apps for Android and IOS. Both look amazing and will bring PR.network to the next level.
There will be plenty of update coming now. We have a lot of copywriting that awaits publication.

Was only airdrops for me. But it is hard to say they were pure airdrops as you always have to do something (tweet, join telegram, etc...). But only once compared to a social bounty campaign.

So where do I find further info on the giveaway? Maybe I am blind but I didn’t see anything neither on their website nor on Twitter.

i used lending platform to purchase pos tokens cause in ether delta i paid 2 dollars for something named "bad jump" (smirk)
withdraw of pos token from platform was completed in 14 hours

Less and less people notice postoken. Postoken needs a Signature Bounty Campaign,like deeponion, Semux and so on.

Ref links aren't allowed but everyone keeps posting them because I think they probably don't care and just want to get refs before the links get removed.  You guys are just spammers making the forum messy, stop it.
