Demerits the need of the hour:
Pre and Post this system in place shit posts existed, people post a different title type something else in thread, one words, completely off topic and so on. It's annoying that these threads always are resurfacing, as we the elite members feel the need to tell them it's a shit post, and like the heard mentality many repeat it.
I feel with demerits in place, all one will need to do is leave a demerit on the post and that's it, like the heard mentality I referred above people will skip the topic. These useless topics shall die a quick death, and people will realise that posting shit on this forum is dangerous.
I am not in favor of demerits because:
1) It will result in more clashes between the members.
2) There might be situations like a member giving demerit to another member just to make sure he is not able to participate in a bounty or so.
3) When a member gets demerit from another member, he may return the favor.
4) Finally, it is already hard for members to rank up. Especially for higher rank members, demerits will make it almost impossible.
I am also not in favor in demerits because we that have a Member rank is so really hard to rank up because you need a 100 merits, and now you want a demerit? so what if i get a demerit? So my rank will go down and get a Jr. Member rank again? that is so sick man, I don't agree with that demerit!
