First you have to receive merits, and then you can give merits. For every 2 merits received, you can give 1 merit.
You're explaining what could be read in the OP to someone who's post has now been deleted by a Mod.
I just clicked Ignore so I don't waste my time reading his posts again.
make quality posts to be able to receive merit. To do this, try to get involved in the themes of the topics, share information you have, and raise questions that you find useful for yourself and others.

We want to be minimally useful, and then we end up falling for these things.
Those who are shitposters will always be shitposters, no matter what advice we give them. There may be some who change, but when they create the account with that objective, they hardly change. Unfortunately, some of these accounts, even though they are alts of recognized and helpful members of our community, still want to have this "second life" here on the forum.
