Merit & new rank requirements

[MagicSmoker]

...

(Merit me if you want now... pay it forward.)

I scrolled through your entire post history to see if any of them deserved merit and, unsurprisingly, all but 6 posts were bounty submissions, and 3 of those posts were exact duplicates asking if you would get more credit if you posted more.

So, you're basically the exact kind of person the forum is trying to weed out with merit.

This is great idea to make this forum net and clean...
Little hard for those who noob in English Language & Crypto world like me.
But it also encourage new people to learn more and more. and i can say new people.. " Never Stop Learning "

Merit. MERIT. Merit.
This one challenges me as a member of this forum site.
With positive mindset... merit will be at hand sooner.
"If there's a WILL, there's a WAY."
KUDOS Bitcointalk!

Please do not do this anymore in this forum, in any board. This could make you harder to earn merits as some (big number) high ranked members do not like this kind of merit begging attitude and they will ignore your account. This is a warning for everyone here.

[ilcapitano]

Honestly, please tell me which positive mindset have you had about merit system.

With positive mindset... merit will be at hand sooner.

Which are your main willingness in the forum?

"If there's a WILL, there's a WAY."

As athanz said in previous thread, using such stupid approach will put you under high risks of being put into Ignore list of strict, constructive users in the forum. Mainly because such a thread is very annoying.

Furthermore, spending several seconds to look at your post history, it is totaly shit-show, nothing more.
I don't think you have shown your positive mindset to adapt to merit system and new rank requirements of the forum.

Merit system is a great idea, but what if people get lazy and dont want to assign merits.. after all if you cant demerit, why give out merits which later on can not be taken away even if you became more of a nuisance?   Are senior members required to assign merits?

Merit source is not some permanent post that once elected , you will have the privilege for years. If they do not assign merits or are inactive, their posts may be transferred to other active senior members. I will never doubt the intentions of admin of this forum though lack of time might be a problem for him while handling this.

I do not understand a bit, explain to me! For example, I have the rank of Member(have 10merit) and I want to  1Merit, but I can not do it, because I do not have to sMerit. How can I be in that case, where do I get it?

I'm having a bit of trouble understanding what you are asking, but maybe I somehow understand, I hope the answer lies in what follows:
In the beginning, sMerit (the one that you send to others) was distributed to users depending on their rank and activity, there also are merit sources who receive sMerit regularly, and finally, for each 2 Merits that are added to your Merit (received from others) you get 1 sMerit (to send).
For now, you have 1 Merit, to become a Member you need 10, let's assume you get them (users give them to you by clicking on +Merit on your posts), you will also get 5 sMerits that you can send to other users.

Thanks for the detailed explanation! I understand it. If I am for example MEMBER and I gave out my 5 sMerit, then I will not have more Merit until I get 2 merit from someone, right?

[athanz88]

You will not have sMerit, not merit. For second question, yes, you will not have sMerit until someone decided to give you a total of 2 merits thus making you have 1 sMerits.

Merit will not decreased, only sMerit is decreased after you send some to other members.

Yes, thanks for the answer! Then I have another question. The forum administration does not distribute at certain times to participants with higher ranks of merit so that they share with those who deserve them?

No there is no distribution for every high ranks/merit users. However, there is some selected users called sources (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=merit;stats=sources), their number for the moment is 79, who generate 17750 sMerit every month and distribute it to other users.

I’m new here and I don’t know the old system, so I have to arrange with the new Merit System. Maybe it’s a positive aspect, that I don’t know the old one, we’ll see. I’ve signed up some weeks ago, at first I’ve only read here, to get an overview about this forum.
I think it’s very important to inform yourself first and avoid beginner's mistakes so it’s possible to save money by reading first, how things are working and after confirming this you can start. By doing this you will save yourself a lot of trouble.

About the Merit System: I’ve read a lot about it and at first I thougt, I came in here the wrong moment. But after reading more about it I don’t think so, because it’s necessary to divide shitposters from quality posters, so the quality of posts will rise and spammers will have no chance of farming accounts to scam others.

So yes, it is more difficult now, to rank up, but if you do your homework and write good posts the merit will come itself. Don’t force it, that won’t work. Share your opinion in a friendly way, try to help others and avoid ennoying one-liners, then you’ll be able to get your Merit step by step.

This Merit System is still new and maybe it is necessary to be modified slightly, like creating more sMerits, because the circulating sMerits are decreasing since start in January, or it will take a time to get more Merit-Sources, but the basics of the new system are succeded.

I’ll take my chance to write some good posts and share my experience about what I found out so far in an article very soon. There I’m planning to present my idea and some advice how you can write quality posts – even if you are a Newbie like me at the time when I write this.

Hi guys, do you plan to change things about the current system ? because i think there is a lot of things to change to keep this good idea alive.

Let's present which changes that you think necessary, my friend.
Please give us more details to discuss. Merit system should be adjusted somehow, hence you can show us your ideas as detailed as possible.

[caytienbct]

that mean so hard to be full member account. 

Stop this, please.
You will never be ranked up to Member rank if you keep such negative approach.
Your thread contributed nothing to the topic, which will let you down (not receive merit point at any odds).

Please respect the words of everyone. Any dissenting opinion can be a useful contribution to building a good forum.

Are you seriously asking someone to respect your shitpost?

[TheQuin]

with you that infomation are old or dont neccessary , but that are neccessary for me, i just said what i think. And you dont like that, okay fun, i was delete. i just know i will never call other peoples post are ***post.

That's also a shitpost because it doesn't make any sense in English. Please stick to your local board until you have improved enough to write a coherent sentence.

I'm all new here. How is ACTIVITY calculated?

1 post 1 activity, maximum you can get 1 activity a day and the total acrivity is updated every two weeks, in Wednesday. Read the first message in this thread, now there merits as well involved in the equation.
