I'm not against your idea, but IMO, it's not needed. I prefer when merit is rewarded in natural way - when merit source or just random member see good post and simply reward it with merit. Most of these merit giveaway threads tend to ass licking and posts made just to try getting merit. Also, as mentioned above, with AI being hottest thing in 2023 many members can try writting posts with it when they try to get merit.
Sorry if my comparison may be not appropriate for some members, but merit giveway threads reminds me giving treats for dogs whn they have donesomething good. I'm not saying that these threads is bad thing, it's simply not something what I prefer.

Ferrari win is best thing wha could happened for Le Mans. After so many years of Toyota dominance it's becoming boring, only question was which Toyota car will win that year. From what I read that after strict budget caps were introduced in F1, Ferrari had lot of available money and engineers and decided to go to Le Man and develop car which can win there
Amazing race, after 24 hours both leaders finished in same lap and on last Ferrari pit stop  hearts of their fans probably almost stopped. And really surprised to see Cadillace finished 3rd and 4th.

I'm not talking about removing feedbacks left by inactive members, most of it remain to be legit and valid. But there is some cases feedbacks become wrong. Let's say user receive negative trust for not returning loan. And after some time user who left him feedback dies or simply become inactive. User repays loan, but he still can't get rid of red trust. Offcourse, it would be wrong to remove all feedbacks left by inactive member or remove him from DT because all other his feebacks remains legit. For now such issue doesn't happens often, but eventually it will become more frequent.
Sometimes DT members leave negative feedbacks when they have personal war against certain member or giving relatiory feedback, but that's not one of these cases. It's not that OP didn't deserved all feedbacks he got.

So, can you suggest alternatives to current trust system? Ok, even if red trust from inactive members would be removed, your account still would be full of negative feedbacks. You want to say that all these feedbacks aren't valid? OK, I'm not going deep into it and argue about it.
I only can see problem in some cases with feedbacks from inactive DT members, but I don't think that your case is one of these.

I also thought that he retired after Granada, but when I saw him entering pitch after substitution against Alaves. He is 38 years old, so yeah, close to 40.
Maybe it don't fits that much for Soldado, but Joaquin example shows that even at such age player still can be useful, playing in strong team.

I think that this message is given mainly because that priority is given to new posts. When there is lot of spam reported it's normal thing that mods are dealing with newest posts first. But if you will report old post, mods will handle report too and they will delete it if it will be needed.

Watched this game and it was really boring. Both teams left everything for 2nd leg. 0:0 probably is better result for Levante, as 2nd leg will be played in Valencia. Really want to see return of Levante, they used to play quite attractive football and always were difficult for big teams. Also, would be nice to see Roberto Soldado last dance in La Liga, offcourse he can't be 90 minutes player anymore, but can be usedul for 20-30 minutes.

When you posted so many links, I already expected that it will be something serious. But again, I got disappointed. From all links, there is maybe 2 photos or videos which MIGHT show arrival to the dam. Rest is cheap propaganda shit, which proves nothing. If Ukraine really systematically bombed dam, there would be much more noise
I see that you catched this interview from WP and using it as strong evidence. Even if it's true what was told it, it contradicts to your acussations. You're talking about systematical attacks on dam, but in article they're talking about one test hit.

While Russians are still ejaculating on videos about few destroyed or damaged Leopard and Bradley's, it looks that Ukraine made some progress in Zaporizhia and Donbas directions, liberating several small villages

But it's difficult to expect fast and easy progress like we saw in Kharkiv counteroffensive. Mainly because Russia had prepared strong fortifications and several defense lines. But things doesn't goes that bad as it may looked few days ago. Though, we must understand that this operation will cost Ukraine lot of human power and equipment. But increased number of videos and photos of destroyed Russian military equipment from front line give positive meotions.
EDIT Makarivka is also under control of Ukraine now

It wouldf be interesting to see some links showing these arrivals to dam. Maybe I don't follow Russian telegram channels enough and maybe I missed it, but I don't remember such complaints from Russian side
Still, destroying such dam with HIMARS, Storm Shadow or any other equipment that Ukraine have sounds unrealistic. If we talk about destroying it from outside, maybe FAB aviation bomn would be enough to blow it

Damn, Harkorede simply destroyed me in 1st round. It really hurts. Now I can't wait for 2nd round questions and try to get up from the bottom
BTW, do we have full schedule with our opponents for whole season?

I think we had similar questions in past and it was said that only cards on the pitch is counted. It's same thing like when you bet on card under/over markets.

I will blame you that I don't have wife .

As expected, Twente won game at home and goes to Conference league. But it wasn't that easy and their win was just 1:0, despite dominance on pitch. After all, they most deserved this spot as from all playoff teams, they ended in highest place in regular season.
After Van Nistelrooy left, Bosz looks like not bad replacement. And if I haven't missed anything, Ajax is still looking for new manager.

Yeah, text size in my reply field is same like in topic title, but it used to be bigger and I haven't changed anything in settings.

Thanks for your suggestions and inputs, guys. I looked at accesibility settings and I see that text size is at 100%, so, it's not related with my browser settings.Now I tried to check how it looks on Firefox and it's same little text..
So, I guess that I will have to zoom in a bit more. Reset settings is an option, but don't really want to do that, as all my logins and preferences will be gone.

Man City wins Champions league for the first time and finally Pep Guardiola wins it not as manager of Barcelona. I think that score 1:0 shows went not exactly in the way as City planned, Inter was really good and didn't looked like underdogs.
That Lukaku moment, unbeleavable how he didn't scored, but it's nothing new for him. But it's important to mention how good was Ederson today, he was one of key players that let City to win.
3 Italian teams reached European finals this year and in the end - all of them lost.

I added screenshot to OP to show how text looks like. As I said, everything was fine, text size was big enough to read it easy. And I haven't changed any settings, so, no idea why it's changed. Now tried to find how to change it in settings, but didn't found.

In recent days something happened to my Chrome browser on Android - text size on reply field become such small that I have zoom in to be able to read. Few days ago everything was fine and text size was normal. Did anyone faced similar issue and how to fix it?

About tickets, I think that tickets to CL finals still cost cheaper than NBA finals. And always huge number of tickets to the final are given for free to sponsors, all national federations of UEFA members and various celebrities. So, even if you have money, it's still very difficult to get tickets.
Back to the finals, I don't expect that Inter will make upset, but I hope that it will be interesting final. Interesting to see what bets on this game did you made, I still haven't decided on what markets put my money on.

Well, I think that now top players is quite well known. I think many heard about Ballon D'or winner Alexia Putellas, one of best US player Alex Morgan or Allisha Lehmann (mainly because of her Instagram.
I followed Champions league a bit and teams were playing in full huge stadiums like Camp Nou, Emirates or Stamford Bridge, not some training grounds like in past. Women football done big steps forward in recent years. Last week Champions league final was played and Barcelona won it by making comeback from 0:2 to 3:2 against Wolfsburg. But still, there was some moments and goals that you can see only in women football.

In 2019 World Cup 24 teams played, now we have 32, what is too much IMO. So far it's way too early to talk about 48 teams, there isn't so many teams in world now who can play good level football. And I also don't like decision to increase number of teams in men World Cup.

I was looking for this thread After all, it's probably biggest football event this summer. Comparing with last championship, number of participants was increased from 24 to 32. I'm not sure that's good move because level of women football isn't such good everywhere around thw world. I'm afraid that it will some big results in group stage like 10:0
I hope that someone finally will end USA dominace - 3rd World Cup in a row would be too much.


It looks that you don't follow women football at all. Argentina isn't powerhouse here, their chances to win  is same like Zambia, Vietnam or Haiti, rated at odds @501. If Argentina will get out from group somehow, it would be almost like miracle.

Mid 90s. My gneration is probably last one who had real childhood. Only good memories from these times. I'm not against technologies and development, but you should use it in right way. Facebook or games on smartphone isn't worst thing. I think that Tik Tok with all stupid videos is worst thing and it makes real damage to brain.

I'm not familiar with Bitcoin Magazine giveaway, so I don't really know why they're doing it. I guess that such giveaway help them to get quite signficant traffic and level of abuse so far didn't reached such level thatthey can't afford to pay anymore. But usually such good things come to the end sooner or later, it can't last forever. So, you can milk cow as it still gives something.
