🈸Lucius Merit Source Application🈸

[Pmalek]

You have been here only 9 years. I think it's too early for you! Give it some more time until you gather the needed experience.
Having said that, yes, you should definitely get a promotion and become a merit source. Several quality forum users are waiting for a "Yes" from theymos, and you are one of them.

Good luck with the application!

Let me bump the topic and give others chance to support the application.

Thanks for the bump - although it is possible that some have not seen the topic yet, I would conclude that the majority of those who wanted to show their support have already done so. I honestly thought that the support would be greater, but when you are not a member of any "gang", then you shouldn't expect too much.

This [the bold text] interested me to check your feedback page and I was not surprised that why your feedback page has suffered [no DT positing feedback for nothing]. I think I have been seeing you from a long time, long years with a good technical knowledge. You need to learn to lick **** hole LOL

Jokes apart, you don't need a gang to be accountable. Theymos have his data and he is the wisest man to make a good decision.

but when you are not a member of any "gang", then you shouldn't expect too much.

And that is another good reason why you should be chosen.

You always seemed to be a polite, reasonable, ethical and respectful individual who share your own convictions based on what you truly believe without disrespecting others. To not belong any groups means you are authentic and led your own path successfully!

Be proud of yourself for that! Cheers!

Yes, I am one of those who is only now seeing your application, and I am supporting it. Hopefully, you will join us soon. I must inform you that theymos do not care about any specific gangs or any gang at all; I was given that role despite not belonging to any gang; I am simply an old sheriff.

 I noticed you did not specify which board you want to be a merit source for; it is critical that you do so so that theymos has less work to do. Additionally, you must PM theymos and keep sending reminder.

[Lucius]

Let me support you for the second time.

It wasn't necessary, but thanks again

Maybe then I should have waited for the tenth anniversary - but on the other hand, maybe it's better if I publicly expressed my wish now, so maybe I'll get a "gift" for my tenth birthday

That was more of a joke than a serious statement, I was actually referring to this - and as far as I can see, I haven't been able to join any gangs (so far)

And that is another good reason why you should be chosen.

Thank you for your support and kind words

I didn't specify a single board, because as you can see from the post history, I'm active throughout the forum (except Altcoins boards). As for the PM, it doesn't seem like a good idea to me because I'm sure the admin noticed this topic and everything else would just be unnecessary pressure.

Okay, basically you're applying for a general merit source - Good luck to that.. theymos is not going to respond here but your chances of receiving a reply in PM is higher. ( Wherever works for you). GL.

The easiest and least time-consuming way to distribute merits is to do it while reading and writing in the boards/threads which are already of interest to you. Doing it that way, is better than browsing the forum for the sole purpose of finding merit-worthy posts. Besides, theymos doesn't always have specific local boards in mind when he makes his selection for new merit sources.

Since I didn't specify a single board in particular, I thought it was obvious that I was interested in the forum in general. Admin can always easily see it from my merit history, like anyone else who is interested in it. I honestly don't know what I would achieve by sending a PM, in fact I think that something like that would be counterproductive, because I have no doubts at all that I have not been noticed.

Thanks for your support once again

We really really needs unbiased merits giver like you though they are in most times seen in high rank members (reputable members) though they give vital information and contribute meaningfully which need merits to encourage them. But also come down to encourage others everyone needs you too. And as Mr. Igebotz as said, the way I also looked at it, PM is another approach that can fast track the application. So I will also want you to try it. There are numerous applications for merit source and the smart applicants made extra communicational efforts to the admin for extra review of the request. That is my thinking. I also support you very firm.

I don't see how a pm to Theymos is going to speed up things here, and it will most likely be ignored because it is unnecessary. Do you have any information or knowledge about merit source applicants that were accepted because they sent a message to the admin? Theymos has surely seen this thread and he knows the reputation of this user, so i am sure he will consider this application when next he wants to make new merit sources.

[SickDayIn]

Whilst coming from me, a member with not much merit or post count, I support you for your application. One thing I've noticed on the forum over the last few months is that it's very difficult to obtain merit. This is okay, as it drives high quality posts that are productive. However, because of the post signature campaigns, there has been a rise of high character but low quality posts in many forum topics. This makes it a lot more difficult for merit sources to, at first glance distinguish a user comments as high quality, and can be skimmed over for potentially receiving merit. At least that has been my experience. I support you in this application for a new merit source.

Yes you were not a merit source not until Theymos made you one (congrats to that), and for any bitcointalker to become a merit source the person need to do more reading than writing so that he could find some post/threads that are worthy of merits.
However, I really support the OP (Lucius) to become a merit source because he is a quality poster, and he's dedicated to the forum and he is also a generous merit giver.

Sending PM after creating my application was the best decision I've ever made. Effective communication is extremely crucial.

Okay, guys, this is a support topic, not a merit discussion thread; just express your support and leave. 

[philipma1957]

I gave op 15 merits as I like his work here on bitcointalk.

Thanks for your support and for filling my sMerit supply

[DYING_S0UL]

I can't say for others, but I personally support your merit-source application. And my reason for that is that you always helped me in one way or another. From answering my questions to clearing confusions and so on. You have friendly behavior without any question. I have been noticing that since my newbie days. One trick (I won't say trick, but...) I learned from you is making quotes smaller. You always do that in your posts.

+1 support by me
Your application probably makes sense, because you earned 5000 merit. I assume that you understood which posts are worth rewarding, so you have a good direction if you would be a merit source. Also, I believe that in the case of consideration for approving you as a merit source, it is enough for the admin to look at your send merit log to make a decision.

[tread93]

I would think that Lucius would be a good judge of character and posts to distribute the merits to deserving sources. I think Lucious is well known for his straight shooter personality on this forum. I would give him a vote.

[NeuroticFish]

I don't know how I've managed to completely miss this topic. And I don't know how comes @Lucius is not merit source yet, given his activity and "age" in the forum.
Of course, he has my vote too.
