Who are 'friends' in the forum? They are mostly main- and alt-accounts. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) This is not compulsory, one can make friends through the forum as well. There are local bards here and you can find people from your country with similar interests. But with the current situation, my suggestion will be not to send merit to such a fiend here even if he had made an awesome post. Take this advice more seriously if you are a new member here with low rank like member or below.

That was hard to think even me I can't send to my friend a merit because we were afraid that accuse of abusing the merit system. But only those good quality post you may send a merit to your friend. I think that is allowed to send to your friend a merit but not to exchange merit with each other that looks like abusing.

There is no single rules which stated we can not send merits to our friends. We can send merit to whoever has good posts/threads, even our friends. The key is the good posts/threads, if you just giving it out of a friendship, then i believe it will be categorized as a merit abuse, especially when you give a lot of it.

But as we can see, it's rarely to find this accounts that isn't abusing the system. Some are being categorized as alts and these were being proven by some users. Friendship doesn't comply on forbidding the rules of this forum.

There is no clearly rule about this. It's also that nobody can control what people do with their merit. It mean that you can buy or sell merit, but deal outside of BCT. I see many posts with nothing special but merited more than 50 times, by 1 person.
you should not do it, it will endanger your own. kare I have found some accounts who get red trus because it gives merit to people who do not deserve it. should be careful in giving merit

Gifting merits among friend is very bad. This friends who share their merit points among themselves, have little or no quality accrued to their post all they're concerned about is getting merit to rank up. Any such act should be addressed to the admins.

The real problem is circulating sMerits between friends (they are mostly alt-accounts and main accounts) mainly rewarded those sMerits to extremely low-quality threads. It is the problem. If someone, even they are your friends, can create constructive threads, which deserved Merits. It's doesn't matter who send those threads merits. just do whatever they want, but please remember that merit system was launched to stimulate quality of threads in the forum.

Not only to stimulate quality threads but also to determine the connections of merited people for every accounts. In the end, merits will be consumed and the judgement day of these non-merited members will come to an end together withe the cleaning of the forum(together with inactive account,alt accounts and spammers).

Good afternoon everybody, As the topic, is it allowed to send merit to our friend or not?
Before you share your thought, let me go first. In my opinion, i think this is not good to support the merit system because people can send merit each other to their friend without checking wheater they make quality post or not. As the goal of this merit, its made to kill spammers but it such thing continue, merit will be killed back by spammers.
I noticed this when my friend get private message, the message contains people ask him to send merit each other.
I know its hard to get merit but we can get it by making quality post.
i know some members will not agree with this but i hope you can share your thought here.
Note : sorry for my bad english. I am not native english
it depends all from you, not from anybody else ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) if you want to help your friends, it is not means, that you do bad thing

Giving merits is a freedom. Like this is a open forum and suggestions and opinions are listened and understood. May or may not be agreeable. Helpful and informative. Well a user who is a quality poster will surely receive merits. These kind of persons may be qualified as a good source of info and may be able too judge or make comments on others suggestions too. They could give merits to those they think are with quality also. So is farmers are wasting their merits to non-deserving users, they will just end up giving their merits to useless users. Those merits will not go anywhere for sure. Also, it is possible to report them. You do not have to worry about anything. They will be punished.

Giving merits to your friends is not the best. But if only they make quality posts that benefits a lot of people on the platform then that's okay. It should not be given based on frienship terms but to reward those who go the extra mile to help other members on this forum.

Well anyone can send merit,
"I can send merit to my friend if the post is good enough and worthy to be merited."
You can send merit to your friends if it's not questionable. After all there are many people who merit their friends but the post is non-sense. Report those as a merit farmers.
Giving merit to friends is not a big deal, quit that kind mentality. The main thing we must check if the post is worthy enough to give merit.
I hate those guys who accuse people as a merit farmers because the merit is "from" a friend but the post is informative and good. Those people are trash and have a crab mentality.

The fact is, no one judge someone abused merit system if they send sMerits to deserved threads, which are informative, high quality, helpful, in-contexts. This is original purposes (the main one) of merit system, to give merits as rewards to deserved users, and prevent shitposters rank up to higher levels in the forum by simply showing their shits around the forum and get easy money.

The short answer is that when your friend really deserved some merits due to his sound replies or commentaries on several questions in the forum, then there is really nothing wrong giving them some credits.
