It should take a hard effort now to increase the rank level. Because now using merit system and not easy to get it. But I will try to continue to be able to raise rank by obtaining merit. Because now the activity is not too decisive in the rank increase
Yes but its too hard to earn merit for newbie. creating original content is very difficult job. And someone review it and give us merit is also luck factor. AGREED

I'm so upset. I was almost reaching Member rank. Now I have to get more 90 merit points. Perhaps, this method should have a kind of sortness to be implemented, wich lead those who are closer to reach new ranks to have more merit points at beginning. However, it's gone! Hope this get the forum a better place. Let's get some merit points.

having to wait 6 minutes between posts is also a pain in the ass
That is just to control Spam, And it will remain until you are brand new and New so don't worry it will be fine the longer you go

Isn't he talking about the sMerit given to merit sources? The source sMerit will come back in 30 days after its spending date. If you sent 5 source sMerit on 18 March, you should receive 5 source sMerit again on 18 April. So if you spent it daily during the previous month then you'll receive it every day in the next month. So, how about member which not become merit source? Are they only receive sMerit by getting merit from other?

HI, you should write in all threads. There is no trick with right thread. You can get merit both for useful info, or for the post that merit owner counts as good. You can even get merit for a joke.

HI, you should write in all threads. There is no trick with right thread. You can get merit both for useful info, or for the post that merit owner counts as good. You can even get merit for a joke. Mostly those mega threads are not noticeable by smerit source members here in the forum, try to look at in the service section there some thread there giving a chance to have smerit those newbie accounts or here in meta sections just do post that helpful to the forum. Or just reporting other members here that violated the rules of the forum. Joel_Jantsen giving smerit if you have reported those abusers in this forum, look at this https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2971165.0

also you need merit points that can be earned by helping others or creating interesting topics.
That's how it should work but in reality it doesn't... at least for now while the merit-system is relatively new. [...] I don't really care about merit but writing those guides was time-consuming and the return was 1 merit... Whatever... Hopefully there were still some people reading it at least. i gave you a merit on one of your guides. yeah it can be a drag when you put time and effort into a guide or post on a very specific subject that may not attract a large number of readers, and thus get overlooked by readers that have merits to send. but as merit sources that tend to hang in particular forums are added hopefully this should even out over time as smerits are spread out to people in those sections of the forum. then again hopefully people dont just try to write only "merit worthy" posts and then eagerly await for merits roll in. not every great post will receive merit. as of this point ive seen lots of posts i think are worthy of merits that have not had any. for me "merit worthy" is a constantly evolving target: kinda depends on how helpful to my particular interests it was, how many smerits i have at the time, my mood, rank of the poster, how much effort i think the poster made, phase of the moon, etc. standards vary wildly, so trying to constantly write to a particular standard hoping to get merits is gonna be a rough ride.

This is an enlightening information regarding the usefulness of the merit system. This will really make Bitcointalk the top reliable source for cryptocurrency information and knowledge. This is a free platform so it is better this way to remove and filter out scammers who wants to profit by creating multiple accounts and selling to people who are desperate and lazy.

New accounts don't have any merit/Smerit so multiple accounts is not possible, but I am pretty sure they will find some way to cheat the system.

New accounts don't have any merit/Smerit so multiple accounts is not possible, but I am pretty sure they will find some way to cheat the system. All they can do is buy some merit points from members who are selling them. Such deals might be happening outside the forum and mods will not be able to catch all those deals. However, this will automatically decrease with time. After few months, the default merits of all the members will be spent and thus they will not be able to sell their merit points. Then we will see merit coming from merit sources mainly and it is not possible to bribe merit sources to give merit points for money as they are established members.

Moderators can not know where they make their deals, but all evidence will be shown up in their merit histories. What do you think if low quality, one line threads received so many merits (10, 20, or 50 merit points)? It is really easy to find. Moderators will have solution for such merit abused cases. Don't worry, keep doing what you should and have to do to rank up (keep writing high-qualitied posts).

Really? I never got one sMerit back ... or will this happen 30 days after I've sent ALL of my sMerit? I thought we don't ever get sMerit back automatically.

I was referring to the merit sources. If you're not a merit source you won't get your sMerit back. Certain users are designated as "merit sources". They can create new merit out of nothing, up to a limited number per month (which differs per source).

It's a lie. To earn merit points you have to do anything, that merit sources likes. As we know, usual users (especially newbies) are not merit sources, so, doing anything which helping them is absolutely pointless. My impression is that most of high rank users don't check frequently the altcoins sections nor local boards. [...]
But most of new users likes these sections and they don't need anything else on this forum. As i mentioned earlier, merit system is unfair to new users and stupid.

Are you saying that merit sources would only send merits for something that directly affects them? Doesn't make any sense.

But most of new users likes these sections and they don't need anything else on this forum. As i mentioned earlier, merit system is unfair to new users and stupid. If these users don't need anything else and just want to hang out in the alt sections they can still do that without merits. Nobody is getting banned for not having merits. But I have a feeling that they do need something else... am I right?

I was wondering if my 1 merit stock forever. When my activity become 60 and my merit is only well I will not rank up. I've been having some constructive post but I didn't receive any merit that's now I am bored to have a qualified post for merit because even it is useful there's no merit that been given to me. Tengo una duda: Un usuario relativamente nuevo, cuantos post puede hacer en un día?
You should speak in english language so that anyone will understand. Only local board allow you to speak with your languange.
