There are many newbie's and jr. member's account asking for merits where in fact according to buddhism Merit (Sanskrit: puṇya, Pali: puñña) is a concept considered fundamental to Buddhist ethics. It is a beneficial and protective force which accumulates as a result of good deeds, acts, or thoughts. (

I thought yesterday when somebody made a thread asking for a "Test" on signing up to qualify their educational skills on blockchain information to be the reason for a little bit of merit was the nail in the coffin. But this guy seems to be way ahead of that.
Bringing religion into the Merit system. That was the last thing necessary to post here.
It is clearly stated that giving merits is only after doing a good deeds, acts, or thoughts but are these words shrink on their minds to those individual who hold newbie and jr.member's account? They are just asking merit without doing good deeds or act?
That is subjective. Some merit sources may even consider simple posts to be merit-able even if they are not posting some "good deed or act". Again merits are supposed to be awarded to post that are having quality and not posts about "good deads".
That is why i do believe that working hard is the key to receive merit and not just by asking it, begging and crying for it over and over again. These higher ranks are doing their best especially those who rank in legendary. They are doing their best. Kudos to them.
Agreed asking for merits = begging for merits = tagworthy by DT.
But what exactly do you mean by comment on "Legendary"? Why kudos to them can you please explain? They have got the highest rank and wont bother to rank up at all. So why kudos to them?
