Pros and cons about merit

[brotherwood12]

i just want to share what i've got about Merit system

Pros :
- Merit system reduce spammer and low quality content / post , and make them cant go rankup so they cant get advantage on this forum

Cons :
- Because of the system , the Newbie with low " knowledge " will be hard to make good quality content .
- how good is your post , if noone look at it /people wont give you merit , you will not get it .
- there will be merit sales  for low rank ( this is my opinion )




feel free to share if you have another opinion ,  have a nice day

Agreed.

Cons :
- Because of the system , the Newbie with low " knowledge " will be hard to make good quality content .
- how good is your post , if noone look at it /people wont give you merit , you will not get it .
- there will be merit sales  for low rank ( this is my opinion )

1) That has nothing to do with merit system. Whether it is there or not, someone with no knowledge will never be able to make quality posts.

2) This can happen to some of your posts. But if all your posts are good, you will be recognized. There are members offering review services where you get more exposure.

3) It may occur but eventually the situation will improve especially when those default merit points are spent.

Yes it reduces spammers but it is also good in the fact that people need to work harder and they will feel good when they get rewarded.
Not every newbie is new to crypto. Some people have been in it for some time and have only made a Bitcointalk profile recently.
If you simply post stuff that would be valuable to other people then the merit will come in.
Its best if you just don.t worry about it and carry on normally.
