Urgent need to you read first page on this thread and everyone comments in this post.

[Alexmagn84]

I understand the new merit system. Thank you theymos sir . So now I increase my post and comments system. And I will get more and more merit.

Dear old-timers of the forum, please explain, but what about those who are not of such a high rank as you, just learn, begins to understand the topic of crypto-currency, for example I can't imagine how I can fill 90 likes from 90 people ... This isn't impossible, for those who thoroughly studied the market, bitcoin and others, of course it's easy, but this is not true in relation to beginners and people of low rank. Remember yourself, was it easy for you to start? Now it's a hundred times harder. About 70% on the forum new accounts, which in this way you will not allow to develop. I mean about these accounts, which really try and are constantly on the forum. Why doesn't the rank increase for the amount of time spent? I would have long been not a member

P.S: Sorry for my english, if something is not right written

It is not that hard to achieve. For instance, I myself got about 23 points after the merit system ( in a week or so). Good thing is that I still keep getting merit points on old posts as more members notice it. Provided I keep making such posts, I am sure that I will reach the next level in 3-4 months. I agree with you that it is now harder than it used to be in past but consider it as a sacrifice we all have to make this forum a  better place.

There does seem to be something that is not right written, but I cannot put my finger on it, exactly.

Wow, condescending and non-constructive.

Not really surprised.

All part of the rising tide of Crypto I guess. Genuinely think it will work in the long run, just wish I'd got started earlier

Could be a ball or a strike, perhaps, but maybe we should check with PoolMinor to see what s/he/it thinks?   

Oh.  o.k.   Thank you PoolMinor.  That was helpful.


NOT.   

[TheQuin]

all this shows is prove you're nothing but a cheap loyalist to a defunct and currently dysfunctional system that may end up dwelling in past glory (like your rank will soon become)  if it continues to be blinded with this false sense of power and pride in achievements in cryptospace.

I think you'll find it was Bcash that forked off before the technological advancements so they could dwell in the past.



Imagine where we would be if sticking a slightly bigger engine in a Model T had been the only advancement in motor vehicles over the last 100 years.

Don't let your legendaey rank in cryptoville make you feel like a king in the real world...

FWIW I'm a Sr. Member not a "legendaey" but rank doesn't concern me. From what I can make out so far 99.9% of the people complaining are here for the wrong reasons.

How to get more merit

[TheQuin]

How to get more merit

By learning to read a thread before posting in it. Always start at the OP. Also the ? character is useful when deployed at the end of a question.

[mjacer]

do i have to do my own post just to earn merit? or even if replying to a thread can earn merit?

[RomertL]

Does merit affects the ranks ? How can i earn merit? Im confused

Yes, it does. Now it is not enough just to write messages and wait few weeks to high your rank. You need to post high quality messages to increase your merit score.

[shailkumari]

do i have to do my own post just to earn merit? or even if replying to a thread can earn merit?

You can get merit for both- your own threads and for replies made on threads of other members. Make sure, you make to the point, relevant and constructive reply.

[shailkumari]

How to get more merit

You have to make quality posts for that. You can check this page to know about posts getting more merits recently: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=merit;stats. Also make sure that you use proper grammar otherwise it might irritate some members here. For instance, this post should have been like:

How to get more merits ? instead of How to get more merit.

WARNING: DO NOT BEG FOR MERIT.

Another observation is that posters sometimes have to expressively asked for merits if they like their post. So all in all, a new posting behavior has emerged.

That is called begging for merit, a matter FOR SHAME.  It is now my active policy that posts begging for merit are reported to moderators for deletion, and users who make those posts are tagged with negative trust, like so:

Were it feasible, I would also have merit-beggars locked in the stocks and subjected to public humiliation whilst being pelted with rotten vegetables—then exiled from this forum forever.

WARNING: DO NOT BEG FOR MERIT.

I understand the new merit system. Thank you theymos sir . So now I increase my post and comments system. And I will get more and more merit.

No, you won’t—evidently.

How to get more merit

Be somebody other than you.  You will not get more merit—evidently.

do i have to do my own post just to earn merit? or even if replying to a thread can earn merit?

I hope that nobody answers your question.  Not only did you not read the original post on this thread:  You also somehow failed to observe which posts and which types of posts receive merit; and that is a rather obvious thing which could only be missed either by a bot operator who doesn’t actually read the forum, or by an utter imbecile.  You are evidently the type who will not get merit anyway, so you have no reason to be instructed about it.

This merit is the new requirement to rank up right,
This would mean that it would be really hard to rank up nowadays because most of the forum users are just saving their Smerit,
Some of don't even give some Smerit even if the post or the answer to the topic is a quality post or a helpful answer .
We often ignore it and just continue to do what we are doing.

I think a video should be made and put up on YouTube fr this so as to easily help btt members grasp this information more easily. Cos right now it seems quite complicated

If 107 pages of content with replies from experienced members can't help you understand the merit system, I doubt a YouTube video will make any difference.
