Feeling sad

[De4ted]

If you think that you studied hars to earn some merits and still dont get what you want, try to study more harder than before to get your target, and I think expecting merit in return by helping some people and posting high quality content is a wrong move.
In my own opinion even in real life try to do great things and never expect anything in return, just like here just keep on making quality content and help others but dont expect merit in return, dont find merits, let merit finds you. Best of luck bud!

I don't agree with your point. Waiting for returns are basic nature of human. It's not strange at all. However, the fact is merits will come later, suddenly (some hours, some days, or some weeks, might be months after the time users published their threads). Therefore, please stop complaining because you will get merits as long as you keep contributing to the forum.

haha expecting return by helping others is a shit, so therefore people like you dont help that street peoples who needs more than us? because they will not benefit you in the future and they have nothing to give back to you? come on!

I have been on the forum for two years, and to the rank of Hero was not enough just a couple of days.
And no one has sent Merita to this day.
On the one hand, it's a pity that changes are made without a vote.
But on the other hand you are here and you fell in love with the crypto currency, which is more important))

Hello my friend,

I think you (and all of users in the forum) should focus on the positive effects of merit system on the forum in long-term aspect. Theymos have no choice about this one. The forum covered with tons of shit-posts recently before the launch of merit system. Since the exponential growth of whole crypto market last year (year of 2017), more and more newcomers joined the forum, most of them joined to get free money and made this forum like to shit-show.
I strongly support merit system, despite the fact that I will be harder to ranked up after its launch.

I just rank up today at 70 activity but still I'm a Junior member because my merits are not enough, so I feel so sad..because honestly I'm having hard time earning it. I don't have much knowledge in bitcoin though I research but not all sink in my mind so its really hard for me to earn merit.. Is there any other way to earn merit except for quality posts? Please excuse my grammar.

First of all, do not get disappointed so easily. You have already achieved 5 merit points and thus reached halfway. You are still doing better than a lot of new members who have not got a single merit. Regarding getting merits for ways other than quality posts, you can try making good compilation of threads related to particular topic. Choose a topic which is not covered already.

let alone a newbie like me who may not understand much about what is discussed in this forum, maybe to ride in rank Jr, member still can but to rise in rank member or so need some merit, but I will try to understand this forum and I will try to be able to get merit.

[jmiro1]

I wish someone would give me some merits, I honestly think I deserve some merits. If anyone gave that to me, I would have used it very very wisely. I wish to give my merits to those who haven't earned any. I won't wait for a second to give my merits to others. Hope everyone benefits from this new merit system. And nobody starts to trade it.

You already got 5 merit points and this means that you have completed half the journey towards next rank (member). If you keep posting good quality posts, you will easily achieve the member rank in 1-2 months. You can utilize that time to sharpen your knowledge about bitcoins so that you make better investment decisions.

Regarding, other ways to get merit points, there are some ways but they are not ethical. Some members here are involved in buying / selling of merit points and they are getting recognized now and being punished by senior members.

Im a newbie and still in the process of learning about bitcoin.Even me I am confused how to get rank and merit but I never get sad or depressed about it coz for me I only need time to understand everything.All we need to do is do some research and comply all the said rules and regulations.After that if you learn a lot of things for sure you can make more quality works to get merits and increase your rank.

[mobilazy]

I'm playing a sad song on world's smallest violin for you. This is merit begging, I despise it even more than ass-licking for merits. Or maybe I'm wrong and you just sharing your sad feelings. Nope, still begging merits.

Do not need to feel sad, till now I'm still learnning about this all, yesterday I just know that how to get activity, today i see your post,than i know need to send high quality post can get merit, i think that's good for our forum for long term, so just hurry up, and me too.

Maybe OP shared her/his feelings that stuck on that rank, there's nothing worry man if you stuck at that rank maybe you need to spend more time to learn a lot about on this forum. Just keep in touch those threads that have a chance to have smerit and avoid those mega threads that full of spammers and shitposters. Then, avoid those thread having repeated answers you may not get smerit theirs besides you are the one who made spam.

[Bagani]

I feel the same with you dude. I think its very very hard to get merits. Can people use their time to click our comments and give us merit. Im seeing a jr memver has 100+ activity but 0 merit. Even we tried to give the best we can. Other commenting its easy if you are good in making topic. Hope its true when i got knowledge about crypto and post helpful topics

[gawer33]

if your worrying just look at my profile still I'm just chilling  , hopes this post help lessen your worries. if you want to contribute on a thread pm me I will help you with all my knowledge.

They wouldn't have come up with this thought if there was to be any other way of getting Merits except for quality posting.
So, there is only one other way, and that is to get out of this forum. You either earn Merits or gtfo of here, because if you can't earn Merits, you are stuck in that rank forever, and I know you can't bear that because you are here only to earn a few bucks and not growing your rank means no money, or less money. And I doubt someone not looking for money in this forum cares to be sad just because he hasn't ranked up just yet. What's the hurry for getting promoted if you are just here to learn? But you are not, right? Hell yeah!

Sorry for everything I said if that hurt you. I really don't want to make you sadder, but I gotta be honest, you know.

Merits are always welcome   thus, quoting a post of mine I believe is worthy.

I'm definitely happy with the new system. By close observations, a person can clearly see that the majority of the people on this forum don't even know what a quality post is. Most of them think "more characters = higher post quality", and just because of this false assumption they start making much more longer and way more useless posts to make them look like quality posts, while the quality of a post has nothing to do with its quantity of length.
Merit system can be (if not used with partiality) a permanent full stop for all those accounts created for nothing else but joining Signature Campaigns. And that thus leads to less spam, IMO.

I mentioned on the main thread that a downfall to this sort of system is that people who start the topics are going to get a lot more merits than anyone posting in existing discussion. This will likely lead to people posting new threads which are duplicates from others in attempt to earn more merits.

People creating duplicate or useless threads in order to get Merits would not get any, because that is why this system is implemented. If the duplicate or spam threads start to get Merits then there is no use of the system as there is no restriction for anyone from any rank on creating threads.

I think merit is an unofficial judgement where most of the people gives merit to those well-known campaign managers to make sure that those managers will include them in their next signature campaign . and how about those newbies and junior members who have quality post . are they eligible to rank up?

Hopefully in future the campaigns will require Extra Merit Points (Beside the ones already given for each rank on implementation of the system) to join along with the rank. And if that happens, there will be no use of Meriting well-known signature campaign managers to get into their campaigns if you yourself have none.
About newbies and jr. members with high quality posts; you can already find them having Merits. My profile is an example of that. So yes, we can rank up if we deserve to, and if we don't, we won't.

quite an arrogant post for merit begar. the guy is sad already dont be so mean

You're not the only one. There are tons of user like you feeling that they will be stuck at their current rank because of the merit system but what they don't realize how the system will benefit them in the long run.

My advice for starters, avoid staying at "Bitcoin Discussion". I'm not saying all threads there are all useless but most of it is since it is mostly made out of newbies who have no initiative to do his/her own research first. Then put a lot of effort on researching about interesting topics that you can share or answer some topics in the threads that will be really helpful not only to the OP but for other members as well.

[The Sceptical Chymist]

So by your own admission you have little knowledge about bitcoin and you apologize for your bad grammar--and for some inexplicable reason you're "sad" because you're not at the rank you think you should be at.

Give me a break--and go cry your eyes out in a dark corner somewhere.  Probably in Manila or a suburb thereof.

By your own words it should be obvious that you're the type of person who 1) Is only here for the bounties, and 2) The merit system was designed to induce unrelenting lachrymation in.  So great!  All is good in the world, and the system is working as designed.
