If you use any other language than English (stated as: a language I don't speak!) in some of your posts, you won't get merit. That is just racist.
How are people supposed to rate a post they do not understand?
You’re racist against words you do not understand.
Me too.
[...]
In the end, the accusation would not be racist, but there could be a valid accusation of "elitism" [...]
Guilty as charged.
this current system serves the higher ranked members and their fake accounts.
Evidence, please.
It's hard to understand where to get merits. I'm not after with the merits though. Maybe doing efforts to help people make money here in bitcointalk could consider be a merit
I do believe that you’re “not after with
[sic] the merits”, insofar as you are neither interested in making meritorious posts yourself,
nor participating in a forum with high S/N ratio where you could read many meritorious posts by others.
Your post history brims with bounties and useless trash. You are here for the wrong reasons. Don’t expect help with that.
It is hard to understand how can someone read the first post and don't understand after that how to get merit.
Objection. Assumes facts not in evidence...
It's realy hard to understand where to get merits still confused here
It's really hard to understand how you couldn't understand a concept explained million times over and over...and over!
Read the first post,...and moreover, factual assertions contradicted by the evidence.
So I joined a signature campaign and they removed JR. Member bounties. Now I am having a problem on how to be a Member ranked. I just learned that I need 10 merits to have a member rank.
Wow, the merit system is actually working!
IMO, those who found clearly abusing the merit system should be passed onto the inquisition the Red Painters so that they have a good reason not to do it in the future.
Nice try.
Why has the merit list been removed for this thread?
I don't find it ugly or distracting at all...
I think it shows the community this post is worth reading!Thinking aloud: It is also a place for people to attempt gaining improper visibility for themselves. Especially those who marked OP +50 or other absurd amounts. Of course, that is not the only potential motivation; but the possibility must be considered, on the OP of a thread which thus far has >40000 reads and is onto its 158th page of replies.
