Merits as requirement.

[hilariousetc]

Good Day to everyone.
I would like to know if it is a must to add merit count requirements when participating into a campaign, I mean is it better to hire applicants with merits or by basing on their quality post? I have seen yahoo62278 start to come up with the idea of accepting applicants with merits for high payments  but also accepted applicants without merits since the merit feature is fresh.

For clarification, do managers have to hire applicants with merits in a must or not?

Please do correct me if I'm wrong or if I have said something unnecessary.
Thanks for the consideration.

Managers can put whatever restrictions they want on users to join their campaign. I think post history/quality is more important than merits, but I'm all for anything that restricts lazy spammers from getting onto campaigns, but merely having merits shouldn't be the definitive factor on who can join especially if their posts aren't as good as somebody else who has less merits. Sadly, it won't really matter though because there are always going to be dozens of crapcoin campaigns run by people who don't care at all and will accept anyone regardless of quality.

Based on this idiotic thread, I think that I should increase the merit requirement for Full Member and above by another 1-2 hundred. Stop opening threads and asking reasonably stupid questions, such as this one:

Nice merit farm you've created over here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2827352.0. I can't believe how many users fell for that.

Wholy shit. What a shitty topic which received 22 Merits totally (only counting the OP of the topic). The guy is smart, but not smart enough as he/she imagined.
Over time, spammers and merit farms will be destroyed entirely by merit system.
After farming accounts, now we have merit farms, merit trades, which should be taken into consideration.

Merits will not become what trust has.

Trust is given freely and costs the user nothing.

sMerits are not free - everyone has a limit on how much they can send.  They will eventually run out.

Only the sources can continue to send sMerit as they see fit - and those will be identified and flagged by members if they abuse it, which should lead to Theymos removing them as a source.

Well, i think if some manager apply merit as their requirement for someone to apply, it is a good thing, since merit indicates that person is worthy of good posts. And looking from the trend, i guess it will happen often in the future, and the requirement will be a lot higher than what we have now.
But it is all up to the manager of the project to decide, without or with merit, now all people in this forum will likely only make not-spammy posts.

Maybe that's the good idea, but it's too early to imposed that merit system to signature campaign some of those members did not have merit received from the high rank members here. Well, they are right, respect of what is the decisions of sir yahoo's rule in his campaign and i think he was right to reduced some spammer from signature campaign members.
Hopefully some CM's are giving chance for this merit system  to the participants it's too early to imposed that, but their decisions was highly respected on us.
