Merits

[Pain Packer]

Just curious, what is this "merits" is all about? I just saw it when reading some post on the forum. And I thought all of us have this. Does anyone what "merit" represent? I have a 100 merits.

yes, this is the look and rules of the new forum, because this rule is new, so the forum gives a same merit policy for all members, member gets 10, full members gets 100, senior gets 250, hero 500, and legendary 1000.
it is certain that the merit determines the quality of our posts, and merit also helps us to rank up.
so there is no spamer, and from now on we are required to provide solution comments instead of creating problems.

You have 100 Merits because of your current rank. You have also spendable Merits, separately. Spendable Merits (sMerits) are for giving them out to others, who create quality posts. At the beginning you have less sMerits (half or less) then your current Merits.
If you check the above quoted post from exus https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2818350.msg28908116#msg28908116 which contains infographic of the Merit system, you can see that members of the forum found the post useful and gave some of their spendable Merits to exus.
Giving out spendable Merits doesn't decrease your Merits at all.

If you create useful posts people will hopefully start giving you Merits and this can also increase your spendable Merits (each received Merit increases your spendable merits by 0,5 sMerit).

Hi. Thank you for providing us the link and also informing us about bitcoin. I hope merits can also help us or can be used to earn extra money. Hehehe.

This feature is also great because there are so many new accounts and bounties demands a lot of post activity so Merit is a great improvment for those who are posting quality stuff.

purpose or feature is very interesting, its positive maybe we should really rack my brain to post quality writing, but for those of us who are just learning about this must be very heavy. the purpose we play this to earn money is now difficult. but keep the spirit to keep learning.
