2 weeks after

[zikabra]

I noticed something which is very strange for this forum.

People are talking to each other!
People are alive! They are not bots!

Not all tbh. But I see improvement. At least when we are discussing about merit, meta was so lonely forum area.

Whole merit deal is good and positive, people should talk to each others, but at the same time it is very sad that someone had to point that.

We've turned Meta round, now it is At'em.

Nice to see people talking to each other but if they talked on something more meaningful, it would have better. These " One week after merit system", "2 weeks after" and so on are funny.

It's almost as funny as seeing an account that only signed up today being dismissive of the changes that have occurred on this forum in the last couple of weeks.

If they talked then we wouldn't have merit. I don't see which part of my topic is funny.

My first choice was "merit wars : theymos strikes back"

That would have been a good choice. I wouldn't waste much time arguing with kapustin, looking at the way he's rattled out 4 anti merit system posts in his first 3 hours here I would guess it's a disgruntled account farmer.

I'm waiting for "28 days after" topics

I cannot  compare what is now with what was before, because I was member of the forum just for some days prior to the implementation of merit points.
However, just by looking at the meta forum, I see that lots and lots of people make topics here in hope of getting some points.
Plenty of them are exactly about merit points (praising or hating the system) ... erm not plenty ... almost all of them.
Then there are the report topics: reports for merit trading, reports for copy/paste, reports for anything. Were they here before?
If not, then they are again a form of hunting merit points by hunting people. But maybe I am wrong about this.

Obviously the ones about merit farming were not here before. The threads about copy paste plagiarism and those in reputation about cheating campaigns with alt accounts certainly were. They are done by people who want to clean up the forum and as there was no merit system then you can't really accuse them of that motivation.

Not sure about 28 days but in 2 months, you will see major changes to this new system for sure. This prediction is based on the recent comments made by the admin on this forum.

but I guess that might kill the Beginners section. newbies can't reward elders with merit so that would be no point for lot of guys to hang out there. they gotta do somethin with it

Maybe the bots are becoming more sentiment. There no way in the world there are humans on bitcointalk. It where bitcoins talk to each other, right.

it was a joke related to the movie with the same name (28 days later)

[guschin]

it was a joke related to the movie with the same name (28 days later)

How is the movie if I may ask? Judging by the name it looks like  a suspense movie.

Regarding members talking to each other about merit system, it is good to seem interacting. Bots are now operating on some other forum I guess.

Older members were helping newbies before merit I don't see reason why would they stop now. This is forum. It is meant for help and discussion. You are talking like forum will stop working

[celtic99]

Now we have newbies posting lengthy rambling posts just to earn merit.  Then we have older pseudo intellectuals posting lengthy posts to earn merit which are still just shitposts.

A longer post doesn't mean its better , short, sweet, and to the point is better.

“Elders” reward people who answer questions and help others.  At least, it is so in Development & Technical Discussion; I have not been in Beginners & Help.  In Dev & Tech, I have been awarded much merit by experts (including the mod) who themselves certainly did not need the answers I gave, but evidently appreciated that I was providing correct answers which helped others.  I would expect Beginners & Help to work similarly on this particular point.

Please make it so. Then for next week, "merit wars: return of satoshi" ooooooohhh stoked

28 Days Later, and the sequel, 28 Weeks Later, are both excellent "fast-type" zombie movies.  I like movies that show how society will eventually break down.

Someone said 28 days, I was thinking of the Sandra bullock movie, not the zombie one lol.

Please fix your grammar.  Future tense is incorrect here, as is your usage of the adverb “eventually”.
