All those Hero Member and Legendary Member including @Theymos and DTs should be ashamed of themselves implementing this merit system. The poor guy founder who invent this technology has a very low merit than yours. Ask your self if you deserve the merit than this poor developer. Without him, you are all nothing. If this guy still here right now I doubt if he will approve this because Satoshi is known for solving problems and believes in equality not adding another problem and promotes hierarchy. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=3Satoshi would ashamed if people just making money easily by spamming or shitposting or making FUD or making scam ICO. This is a forum not bitcoin itself, the owner of this forum has the right to make it centralized, and one thing is for sure, just because you joined this forum, Satoshi or this forum doesnt have the obligation to give you money, why would you mad because a forum can not give you money anymore because you can not get merit. Lastly, what equality did you mention? Do you think people getting more money with all of his/her alt account with shitposting and cheating the signature or bounty are fair to people who only use 1 account and never cheat signature or bounty and contribute to forum while getting lesser? Please what equality do you mean? Id rather have a people with experience and proper manner on this forum in a hierarchy power rather than a lot of "equal" people you did mean. If that's the case then maybe @Theymos have to take out Sig Code for good if he wants to address the problem or find other way to address this mess. The question is can Theymos and his minions afford to take out Sig Code for a better and cleaner Forum? One more question can you afford to lose you Sig Campaign and find other source of income? I can afford to lose it, i treat this forum as a forum and not to make money on it, money is the only bonus for me. If people can make money with the right way then why not? Merit kicks in to make sure that high quality people can shine among the others who only do shitpost or even normal things. One thing for sure is, i never whine about merit and i embrace it, i think it is a great feature for the future of this forum. You should not question people who contribute even a little for the forum about making money, they earn the privilege to make money, it is a privilege for high quality and contributor people, not a right for everybody who join this forum. My question for you is, do you deserved to earn money while you didnt do a thing or do it by cheating? Well, come back later with your real account when you want to talk about eliminating all sig system in the forum, i bet you have a high rank account used for makimg money purposes. If you can afford to lose it why not suggest it and say "@ Theymos, maybe we have to take out the sigcode for good, anyway Sig Campaign for me is just a bonus, Im living in a third world country but I can manage my living". By the way your statement is also contradicting, you are here not to make money then suddenly your are talking the right way to make money. Make up your mind, the fish caught in the mouth. In essence, you, karmicpanther, fail and refuse to recognize any kind of value in the merit system that has been created. Furthermore, likely due to your failure and refusal to see value in this new merit system, you are starting from the wrong premise to expect that such new system is completely abandoned in order to implement a new system (which if you had your way seems to be that you merely want to return to the old system)... In other words, you are coming off as both a self-absorbed nincompoop who tries to blame while deflecting issues, which causes you to lack credibility regarding anything that you are suggesting about this subject matter.

1) Self-Custody is a right. There is no such thing as "non-custodial" or "un-hosted." 2) ESG, KYC & AML are attack-vectors on Bitcoin to be avoided or minimized. 3) How much alt (shit)coin diversification is necessary? if you are into Bitcoin, then 0%......if you cannot control your gambling, then perhaps limit your alt(shit)coin exposure to less than 10% of your bitcoin size...Put BTC here: bc1q49wt0ddnj07wzzp6z7affw9ven7fztyhevqu9k

This is a common issue with people dependent on an external website for their earnings. Members who are replying only on the income they get from signature campaigns here for their living are in extreme danger. Just one red trust or ban and all their earnings come to an end in a moment. That is why I always believe in replying sources you have better control on like won websites. There are multiple ways to advertise a website and thus you are safer with that approach.

Merit system should be modified because :
1) We will see a new system. Introducing changes will help to fight against members that got away with current loopholes. We should not allow members to get used to a particular system and they will eventually realize that it is not worth their time to spam.
2) I see very less number of junior members ranking up. This must be discouraging for the new members who had just joined after the merit system. We should increase merits in circulation.

Less than what? You registered after the system was introduced so how could you know? Unless of course, this is one of many accounts you have.

How about this case? I found this one by chance. 10 acitivities, newbie rank, 100 merits, and there is no merit history. What is this? Anyone can help to make a forensic analysis about the case (I am just kidding) because I am curious about this guy and would like to know what actually happened with the account. Thanks all in advance.
It is probably because the member deleted his past posts. Some members do have weird stats and in addition to deletion of past posts, their might be some other reasons. One is that the member is exceptionally good at expressing his opinion here. They have often more merits than activity which might be hard to digest for normal members like me. Then there are those cheaters getting 50 merit points for a single post.

I was searching this topic for hours ! Even If it'0s not clear how you give somebody a merit - and you have so few to give it away, members are not encouraged to give them away.

We don't need to be encouraged as it is in our interest to reduce spam. So we award Merit to interesting and informative posts and not posts that had no reason to be made. That way only the people making a valuable contribution here will rank up. The fact that fewer Jr. Members are ranking up now is a measure of success. Maybe after you have been here for some time you will understand that.

Members sending merits will not make much difference in the long run. In few months all the default merits will already dry up and then we will will have merits given by merit sources only. These merit sources had been assigned this task by the admin and thus I expect them to do their job with dedication. They are already high ranked members who have proved they loyalty to the forum. I also expect merit sources not to award merits to members who are hoarding their merit points.

Who told you that the merits are few to give away. You need to read the responses in this thread carefully. New merits are being generated very month and they come from merit sources. As these merits are awarded to members, members also keeping getting some Smerits per month and we have the cycle getting repeated. Now whether the merits being generated by merit sources is enough or not, we will see in coming months. Give this merit system some time and let all those abuse cases settle down.

Did you not read the first post in this thread? In addition to activity, everyone now has a merit score, and you need both a certain activity level and a certain merit score in order to reach higher member ranks. The required scores are: Rank | Required activity | Required merit | Brand new | 0 | 0 | Newbie | 1 | 0 | Jr Member | 30 | 0 | Member | 60 | 10 | Full Member | 120 | 100 | Sr. Member | 240 | 250 | Hero Member | 480 | 500 | Legendary | Random in the range 775-1030 | 1000 |
In addition to the required 60 Activity, you now need 10 Merits to rank up from Jr. Member to Member. Qus 2: One thing i am not clear about merit. Senior can send or gift it upon your activity on forum . in my local tread, some times i am trying to clearify my communitie newbies problem . and i know there has many senior and sir member. but they do not properly look after their newbies , . What kind of Rules has for this kind of Sir member or Senior Member ?
Nobody is required to give you merits in order to rank up. You don't automatically get merits just because you post. Go back and read the first post here to learn what merits are and why the merit system was introduced. Based on your post, however, I don't think you're going to be a good fit for these forums, and I don't think you stand a snowball's chance in hell at earning enough merits to rank up, if I'm being honest.

Your contant repeating of long post structures, especially the annoying formatted ones, will cause people to skip over your posts, even if they can find them.

No need to quote many posts... Disabling signatures could be done to shut down shitposting but it will have also a huge impact on the forums future. For the Merit, it could delay ranking for regular users but it will collapse farming accounts; they can cheat, trade merit but this will end soon once they run out of smerit. For satoshi he created Bitcoin and he "disappeared", he doesn't even own his account. I respect the opinion of people sending smerit for the founder account but for me it is a waste of it since it could benefit others to rank up...

Of course, merit system can not reduce spammers to show their shits through their shitty threads. The reason is (as you said) they can still join signature campaign with Junior member rank, for most campaigns which accept the rank, payments for this rank is usually half of payments of Member rank. So, for shit-posters, they don't care about contribution to the forum, no need to rank up to Member rank; because they can earn the same amount of money by using 2 Junior Member accounts and delivering their shits. Personally, launching stricter rules which prohibit Junior members join signature campaigns forever will the solution to eliminate entirely shit-posters, then wipe out spamming threads. No need to quote many posts... Disabling signatures could be done to shut down shitposting but it will have also a huge impact on the forums future.
They will be tagged then banned soon. Don't worry about them. If you find them, you can report them to moderators. Show your evidence up. For the Merit, it could delay ranking for regular users but it will collapse farming accounts; they can cheat, trade merit but this will end soon once they run out of smerit.
Agree! They have their rights to do this! Nevertheless, they should use their sMerits better. For satoshi he created Bitcoin and he "disappeared", he doesn't even own his account. I respect the opinion of people sending smerit for the founder account but for me it is a waste of it since it could benefit others to rank up...
