I'm just tired to see people ranting about the merit system that's all
I guess we won´t see an end to this as long as people try to copy
the success of the users kaar and cho99.
1. kaar received 64 merits for his thread
Merit is the best thing that happend to new users2. cho99 received 51 merits for his thread
How to get free meritPersonally, I think the merit system has another downside that could potentially
become visible in the next few weeks. The opening poster of every thread is much more likely
to receive merits than a high-quality reply that is buried on page 17 of a thread with 23 pages. This
could incentivize people, who mainly post in order to receive merits to create new
threads instead of participating in existing discussions.
Let´s hope that I´m wrong and this is an unfounded worry.
I'm sorry for those people will get offended in this post. I know a lot of you praising the merit system and some of you especially shitposters were critizing the merit system can we please stop creating new threads about the merit system and move on? And if you have questions, rants, and suggestions about the merit system, please post it on merit system thread instead in that way, we can reduce the spam in meta thread that's all.
why people make new posts about merit?
Because it's the easiest way to get merit points (70% of merit points happen in meta section )
I noticed this too, might be true that some newbs have noticed there's a high chance of receiving a lot of merits this way.
There is a disproportional amount of merits being given away here versus other threads
And I wouldn't exactly call all of these constructive.
