RIP English, have you used google traduction to write this post, i think from what i was able to understand is that you are suggesting that campaign managers should decrease the limit on the weekly posts that participants should make in order to get paid, if that is the case i think you have a point, some campaigns have the limit set to 40 or 50 posts per week which can lead to a lot of spam in the forum.
No, i am write this post using only me and not cheat or using any violations on rules that i respects. I am not accusing you of using traduction or violating the rules or anything, i am just stating that you need to improve you english a bit check and correct the sentance that you write before posting them, because clearly we haven't been able to understand you idea, and if we can't understand it we can't help you with anything. |

The merit system is great and all, it defiently helped with reducing the shitposting and spam threads, but the merit requiremnts to rank up is where the problem lies, in the low ranks it is understandable but at a certain point where you need 250 and 500 merits to rank up it is too much, the sense of progress that poeople had is practiculy gone, the thing that keeps you coming back to post and increase your activity has vanished, at a certain point you feel like you are stuck and have zero motivation because even if you write good quality pots no one is going to take the time and read it because you are nobudy.

there is not a single system out there that is perfect, and the merit system is not going to stop poeple from finding a twist in things to get profit from it, anyone who is abusing the system like selling merits won't get away with it, they will eventually get caught and when they do they will be punished, and i belive that mods have already been able to track down a couple of merit trading circles where a bunch of people trade merits on shit posts.

One alternative solution, or addition can be done to this is to make a merit requirement for some ranks to join a signature campaign (o i believe that many people are here for money, getting money is good, i cant deny it), maybe like making a different payment rates or anything, so it is not an improvement from the admin, but it is an improvement from the community because the impact of merits. I think it is a good addition to the merit system.
I one hundred percent agree with you on this part, just like you said the whole point of the merit system is to stop shitposters and alt accounts farmers, who are doing this to earn more money from signiture campaigns, so setting merit requirments to get into them would solve the whole problem, campaign managers are responsible for keeping the forum clean as much as the moderators, so they should be more restrictive when accepting applications. |

I agree with what AdolfinWolf said, so i will not repeat it. Also, most of good quality posts that you speak of are probably in "shit threads", swarmed by shitposts. That is why they are not seen and sMerited.
What is good quality post... that is relative thing, because opinion of that varies from person to person. Awarding some post with sMerit is personal thing, you can not make people sMerit posts they don't see worthy.
A person with the right skills to write good quality posts should be able to identify a topic that is filled with spammers and shit posts, from a topic that is worth posting in that actually adds somthing to the forum, the whole thing is just like looking for a needle in a haystack, people intressted in awarding merits to the ones who deserve it don't have niether the time or the paitience to look through 5 or 6 pages of shitposts to find that only good one, so if anyone wants to get awarded for his ideas, he should post them in some serious discussions and not in topics about the price of bitcoin. |

ETHEREUM is now rising again at a full speed. while Bitcoin fell 1.500 USD in just less than 48 hours.
What is the reason why Bitcoin fell and why Ethreum is gaining its value again?
i do have some Ethereum and i will keep holding this till it reaches the 1.000 USD again! how about you?
Probably the biggest reason to why ethereum is rising again and bitcoin is just going back and forth, is due to the fact that a lot of icos are just etehreum based coins, so with them coming back these last few days made the ethereum price rise once again, people are awake and the cryptocurrency market is no longer involved around the bitcoin, and the price of the bitcoin is high which means investing in it can be quite difficult but etehreum has a very reasonable price so no wonder people will invest int it. |

Merit is created for anti-shitposter not for trading and how does it go now? It currently benefit for most of high rank member in bitcointalk forum.
Later on, new members, beside spend a lot of time, have to spend their own money to buy sMerit to reach a higher rank. What a failed system.
Example: if you was in bitcointalk forum a few years ago, you posted a lot of under-quality posts and you earned Legendary Rank, so it is unfair with new people joining this forum now.
Sr, Hero Member, and Legendary start planing on selling their sMerit score and their account with a ton of money.
Actually no, the merit system is specifically made for the new users, because if you haven't notice shitposter and alt farmers have a lot of accounts that are full member or lower because it takes them more time to reach the other ranks, and the system does not benefit the poeple who joind a long time agao, if you are posting under-quality posts and have reached Legendary rank, than you probably can get away with it, but in case you haven't read the ranking requirements, Sr, Members and Hero Memebers have to get a lot of merits in order to rank up.
Currently, another problem is occurred. Merit system has been questioned a lots. Group of people, they will cheat by giving their own team member, partner, friends their Merit score, even their posts are spam posts. How are bitcointalk dev gonna control that?
Good luck with your Merit score and congratulation to those who reached Sr, Hero Member, Legendary rank one more time
People selling or exchanging merits can easily be identified, thats what the merit history is for, if a memeber gets a lot of merits for a shitposts poeple can see that, if he gets merited for a good post than good for him there is no harm in it, but the point is people who are abusing the system sooner or later will get caught. |

By the way this forum is created for discuss about bitcoin but most of the merits are only given to the META section which is only dicsuss about thr forum,so bitcoin discussion doesn't desevrves merits?
The bitcoin disscussion section is basicly a play ground for shitposters, all the topics are spammed by poeple who are trying to post just for signature campaigns, so there are hardly any good posts that actually add something that has been not mentioned yet, and even if there are some good posts the merit sources, or people with merits to give don't actually have the time or the patience to go through 5 or 6 pages of bad posts to find the one that actually is good quality and deserves to be merited. |

For example: Whenever you walk into a store, ask if they accept BTC or cryptocurrency etc. ? Even if you know they don't. It primes the cashier or manager to better acknowledge the next customer who asks a question like this and also starts a conversation or beginning to something new.
What would be your idea?
The problem with bitcoin is not advertisment, everyone and thier dogs knows about bitcoin by now, because of its high value and everyone is trying to get a peace of the cake, the real probelm with bitcoin is scalibality, once the network starts experincing high trafic, the transactions starts becoming more and more slower, which than leads to higher and higher miner fees, and that is why bitcoin in my opinion will never become a major payment method that is used by all people, if that is what we want than more and more developpments need to be made so we can avoid high traffic and slower transactions. |

Recently my friend's bitcointalk account got hacked and unfortunatly for him he was not able to recover it, the hacker was able to change the email and password without being stopped due to the fact that bitcointalk system only sends you a notification mail to let you know that your informations were already changed, and the only way you can recover your account is by having a signed message which people only know about when it's too late, or by pming one of the administrators who have a busy schedule and probably won't reply to you even if you have a proof of ownership of the account.
What i'm suggesting here is to add another layer of security, so that when you want to change the email or the password, a verification mail would be sent to the current email and the owner would have the option to accept it or not and also know if he is being hacked.
I think this actually might be helpfull because, new people don't know about signed messages until its too late and they got their accounts stolne, having a good or a bad password is not the issue, anyone is vulnerable to get hacked, and there is nothing worst than losing your account that you spend a lot of time on it. |

Yes congratulations to those who bought yesterday at 6k. Today they already made 8k USD. I told everyone. Whales spread FUDS to make bitcoin go down. Next stop 10k in 2 days. 20k by March. Hope many people did not sell or fear of FUD
Well of course, bitcoin was bound to sooner or later, it is just a matter of time and how paitient you are and how many hits you can take before sell, the recent drop was probably the best oppurtunity for new comers to invest thier money into bitcoin, now it is just a matter of accumulating profit, as the news about the cryptocurrency market slowly recovering is affecting investments so we will soon see the bitcoin rise again. |

i am very new to trading and would like to learn how to trade
...not sure where to start ... any suggestions would be very helpful ...
whats the best way to get the knowledge in this field ?
thank you
The first thing that you should know about cryptocurency is that it is an unstable and you could lose all of your investments in the process, so before getting started with trading you should read some guides and watch videaos to learn the bascis bfroe jumping straight to busniess, i would suggest that you start trading more of the simpler and more well know coins like etehreum and bitcoin as they tend to be more forgiving if you mess up, as for the trading platform i recommend poloniex as it is more user friendly and easy to use. |
