It's not about quality only, you posted something about any coin i read that and it earned me 100x, then that post is helpful, that post is quality for me, I don't know what do you mean by high-quality post,
In general it means constructive/contributes to the conversation/has sense
but there are many posts that need to be merited but no one does, but if anyone says, if you like it merits us then its consider as begging, because without mentioning this no one care also,
When situations like that occurs, you should be striving to improve your post not attaching a reminder to "merit me if this helped you" (or something similar) in your post.
in fact, many people dont know how merit work and how to give.
Sorry but I'm not buying that.
There's a noticeable amount of the word "merit" here which should lead them to research/ask about it.
If they're blind and they didn't notice it, they eventually will once they realized they're not ranking up
The last scenario is they don't care about it.
its like pay me if you like our service do you consider this begging
Pay us if our product worked for you is that begging.
Many services ask for feedback after giving you service its like, " please rate us what u think about our service" that is not begging
Merit us if you like our post
You don't really have to explicitly say it for it to count as begging as there are many ways to do it (implicit/explicit).
You need to learn the difference between begging and requesting, You have either posted this with a motive to insult that guy or someone in past have done same thing with you and you are following the same path.
LOL. Where did you get that?
And this category is for Service Discussion, and I merit him for the service he is providing. i hope you will not mind this and understand what i mean to say.i can't change your mind i can only explain the difference and for me it's not begging.
They way you are defending op + emphasizing that you merited him for a good reason is hmmmm.....
This has become a little off-topic, If you want to discuss this further, you can go open a thread on Meta
