Merit Giveaway

[LogitechMouse]

I need merits quite a lot.

I'm trying to be able to post images of a product we are launching. but I cannot do it as my rank is too low. 

Our product aims to put a blockchain computer in every home.  crypto adoption by the masses is being held back by my lack of merit on bitcointalk.  mass adoption is at stake here and I cannot post an image.

If I'm not mistaken, Jr. Member can post images already (correct me if I'm wrong) so you need only 1 and not "a lot".
Well, I'm assuming that this post is both a begging post and at the same time an advertising post since you are advertising your "project". Try to post one constructive post so you can get 1 merit then you can post images already.

lol!!! okay i will answer questions and criticisms since you are a "NEWBIE"

Well, this guys earned more merits in his 35 post history than some of legendary members with 3000 posts (like this guys:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=436371 - 5000+ posts - 4 merits. Active today
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=891131 - 2700+ posts - 4 merits. Active today
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=658163 - 2000+ posts - 1 merit. Active yesterday
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=410589 - 4200+ posts - 3 merits. Active yesterday

I whould not treat him like average newbie. Perhaps he is (or will be) more valuable BTT member that those above.

Yes! I've checked his post history he is deserving to rank up meriting him now.

I see you pushed him through the line. Great to see that i could help you and him

Threads like this should be outlawed in this forum, doesn't send a good message and it's beginning to look more like abuse. If you have Merits to give, nothing stops you from giving them quietly to the deserving posts.

Don't be so harsh. No one is an expert in any field and every board has its small society. If he is not technical he would not be able to reward quality posters from technical boards (such as Bitcoin Technical Support). If he does not speak French he would not merit quality poster from French local board etc.

Thank you for these warm words. I felt really appreciated

...person who wants to rank up especially hero members who are short in merits to become legendary...

I think OP did all he can to make his opening post as short as possible but still, some members are not able to read it before posting.

OP clearly said that he wants to help: especially hero members who are short in merits to become legendary.

Please don't spam this thread there are/where enough merit giveaways for newbies and beginners, just look for them in proper sections.

Its good that people will get merit through this thread but i have another point of view on the merit giveaways threads.

It is the responsibility of the person to keep on distributing the merits while being on the forum. If he like any post, he should give merit to it (provided he has the smerit). Now by creating such threads, you shift your responsibility and ask people to show your posts and then you make selections on which to merit and which to not. It makes you look superior as you have some precious items and you are distributing it.

Secondly it sometimes give a wrong impression that merit is so difficult to get that first you have to post constructive and no one will give you merit and now you come on these threads and indirectly beg " Please see the my post, i'll deserve merit on it. please give me merit".

OP have rights to use his/her sendable merits in the way (s)he wanted. If (s)he send smerits to good posts and good posters, there is nothing wrong here. my friend. You can not blame that you (or others) make good posts (for instance 100 good posts, and no one see or send merits to one of your 100 good posts). There are probabilities for your good posts to be found by others (due to garbage posts burried good posts), but there are always probability to get merits if you constantly make good posts. 10/100 good posts found by others, and some of them will get merits. I think it is fair.

There are merit contests, people have free rights to join contest, and try their luck. Importantly, luck only comes to good posters.
If in merit give-away contests, you or others can not win a single merit, from OPs, or from threads' readers, it is your/ their faults (mainly come from average post quality does not good enough to satisfy OPs' or readers' qualification)

I am not strictly against these merit giveaways threads and this forum recognizes  the efforts of the people who are willing to send the smerits.
Also most giveaway are for Jr. Members and Members and high ranks are mostly ignored. I hope OP will distribute all the merits to the deserving hero members.
Also it will be good if he could update in the OP how many smerit already send and how many left.

Not getting the whole gist but I understand this is a giveaway with main focus on Hero members above. Well it's been a while since I applied for giveways so let me give it a try. Mostly after the smerits as I hate been out of smerits, just spent my last earned smerits early hours of today.
