OP, you signed up only yesterday, made few posts and you're already complaining about Merit system. Are you really new here? You said that you don't need high rank, then why you're concerned about getting Merit? You can continue posting by being Newbie or Jr. Member without getting a lot of Merit. It's true that it's not easy to get Merit if you're not ecxeptional user, but I think it's fine - you need to put some more efforts if you want to get higher rank benefits, what's wrong with that? We want to improve quality of this forum and Merit is a motivation for users to improve quality of their content. The chances are small whichever way you look at it, i have since starting this thread gone through a large volume of merited users and 99% of them are not posting anything special or greatly assisting the forum they are merely just posting in the correct place that users that have a lot of merit to give frequent.
Heavily disagree. Can you give us any proof of some posts that aren't "anything special" that are given merit? I think he is right in this case. If you have famous name or great reputation here, it's easier to get Merit even if you make some average posts. I don't want examples, but I see this trend. But I don't think it's something wrong.

Japan GP was really boring and I regret that I wake up so early to watch it. Hamilton won race easily and his advantage against Vettel is huge already. I think it will be not very interesting to watch upcoming few races when we already know who will become champion. I only don't understand why Verstappen didn't got penalty after collision with Vettel. He closed doors and didn't left enough place for Vettel, IMO he had to get time penalty.
I'm surprised you woke up to see the race, despite it being clear Vettel won't be able to catch up and Hamilton is now the champion, even though he'll be a given the trophy later. In my personal opinion Vettel had seemed to give up from last few races, as the huge lead Hamilton has over him definitely messed up with his mind. I'm not seeing the next few races in full, will watch it in parts as the champion is already decided. Probably I will watch these few last races in this season, no matter that fight for champion title ended. And yeah, seems that Vettel give up already. I read comments of Vettel and Arrivabene and they are really pesimistic about Frerarri recent results.

Escrows are middle man and trusted partner in ICOs. When investors look in a campaign for invest they look into Escrow.Its like a central bank of a country that private bank deposit a fixed amount of money as if that private bank fall, clients can get a lam sum amount against their holding from that deposit. When an ICO launch some amount are stored to a third party(Escrow) that if that ICO fails investors can get lam sum amount form Escrow.
OP aren't asking how escrow are used in ICO's, please read his post more carefully. Users above explained about escrows pretty well. Just one thing to add. If buyer aren't using Bitcointalk, it's likely that he wont agree to use escrow agents from this forum because he don't know anything about them and he can't trust in people who he see for the first time. User above said well - reputations means almost nothing outside this forum.

Deportivo Alaves 1-0 Real Madrid
No Ronaldo No Party
That’s two losses in a week for the Champions of Europe, they’re on the decline.
3 losses and draw with Atletico in 4 recent games, 0 goals scored. It's best proof how they need replacement for Ronaldo. They must buy something on winter transfer window, but until they they may loose too much. Today it's interesting game between Valencia and Barca. Valencia struggling in La Liga so far, but I think they can surprise us. And it's strange to see that Alaves have same number of points as Real Madrid. Sevilla and Atletico just 1 point behind them and they still didn't played in this round.

I thought to have done disastrously wrong in today games, but I see I have done 5.5 points so far and only two persons did better than me while many others did the same score. I am 11th and I have an 8.5 points difference with 1st place. It is really tight with this CLOSE 1.5 score of SUPERBRU.
Well/ I got only 3 points in total from 7 games and I'm still not worst in this round. There are quite many unexpected results in this round and there aren't not many users who managed to predict correct outcomes. I hate MU and Mou, but this time I'm happy that they made a comeback and bring me 1.5 point for this game ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) . And I'm wondering why there are so many players who didn't made predictions in this round???

Giving 50 Merits to ANN topic isn't a best way to spend Merits, but I don't know can we call it as Merit abuse. Users are free to choose how they want to spend their Merit. IMO, it's better to give Merits to ANN threads than send to alt accounts or sell on black market. Maybe you can show us ANN about which you're talking about?
I'll respectfully disagree, it should be reported and even though merits cannot be removed, there should be exceptional situations where it should be possible to remove the merits when it's an obvious mistake or/and abuse. Some folks here post very quality stuff and struggle to get 50 merits in total. To be honest I already started a thread about this before and was told that little can be done. I understand your point, but unfortunately, Merit system isn't moderated, same like trust system. And it's really difficult to prove Merit abuse, this is why there not many users are red tagged by DT members. Yeah, it's not fair that some users just buying Merits to rank up and they aren't punished for that, while other users are working hard to get Merit in legit way. I see that you're making really good posts, but you got too litle number of Merits.

Yes maybe it is true, but i also think that i deserve second chance especially because it was done accidentaly ,don't you think?
Accidentaly? Do you want to say that you advertised scam ICO accidentaly? Yeah, great excuse. Ok, I can understand that maybe you didn't noticed that big red warning among all these bounty reports. But it's your responsibilty to make research about project before starting to advertise them to be sure that project is legit.

1. It was possible few years ago. But then Bitcoin price was much lower and faucets were monetized by Google Adsense. Well, now it's still possible, but only theorically - you need to have thousands of active referrals. 2. I also would like to hear names of such generous faucets. But it doesn't exist unfortunately. You can try these games, but don't expect big earnings, it's just for fun ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Copy and pasting.
Oh, what a surprise... OP, and now you just wasted your 0.00208333 BTC to buy Copper Membership. Once your account get permanent ban, you're banned as a person and you can't continue posting on Bitcointalk while using alternative accounts. You keep posting same thing in all meta topics! And bashing the people who got banned. You should get banned too. ? P.s : 0.00208333 is nothing i purchased to increase my limits to be able to post here & pm admin Where do you see me posting same things in all Meta topics. And I think it's not something wrong to bash banned users. You've been here long enough to know rules of Bitcointalk. How you didn't knew that plagiaris isn't tolerated here. And why I'm also should be banned? Could you elaborate?

Hello, The article you have shared presents news about Pervesk, not about SpectroCoin. Yeah, but in article it's written that Pervesk and Spectrocoin companies have close connections, CEO of both companies are same? You wanna say that both companies aren't related to each other?

In first week I was close to get wooden spoon. This week I'm just 1 point behind yellow cap. Big contrasts, lol ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) . From P19, to P12, not bad week for me. I had only 2 exact scores, but got 1 or 1.5 point from most of games.

I would prefer if they focus on adding native support for the already existent coins on the Ledger Live dashboard (so we don't have to use a third-party wallet) instead of adding as many shitcoins as possible. But ok, maybe they just want to say they are the hardware wallet with the largest number of coins in the market.
Like, Banano? Are you serious?
Indeed. So far number of supported currencies on Ledger Live app is very limited. It causes inonvenience for users and they are forced to search for alternatives I'm not sure that there was big demand from users to add these coins. There are some coins which more worth to add. For example, many people are literally attacking Ledger to add Cardano finally.

Barca finally recovered after few bad games in La Liga and beat Tottenham 2:4. Messi was great again and Rakitic goal was stunning. But considering that Spurs played without many important players like Vertonghen, Alli, Dembele, Eriksen, they didn't played that bad, they had some moments to score when result was 2:3. I'm really disappointed about Liverpool performance - 0 (!) shots on target. Napoli controlled this game and it was only matter of time when they will score. And I also wasted 2 hours of my life while watching Lokomotiv - Schalke game, it was extremely boring, and IMO Schalke didn't deserved to win.
