Activity, Merit, Politeness, fMerit, Imagination, Virtue, Coins, Karma, Posts !!

[suvo05]

Posts and Activity was the only requirement for rank up-gradation. And few months ago Merit was introduced as a requirement. Now today I am surprised to see lot of stuff under my stats

There's any link pertain to this?

I literally laughed out loud when I saw that "fMerit" word. Yeah newbies are gonna say "Fuck Merit" and that gives you fMerit point - did you people know that?

fMerits = [total sMerits + number of times you said "Fuck you merit system" ]*Your current rank 

April fools to everyone out here reading this and thinking "whats wrong with me profile??"

In this case, finding out that this is just an April Fool's joke is a disappointment.

Hope you said a joke otherwise theymos got highest f* Merit then "fMerit: 449"   and I who never used that word also got some nice number  

[Wind_FURY]

I guess it is part of an April Fool's joke as there are no buttons to click to add those "FMerits", "Politeness", "Imagination" and the rest unlike the Merit system. I got to say that the joke got me as I was scrolling through some threads and I noticed a lot of new stuff under Activity and Merit, first thing I did was to visit the "Meta" section and find out there are no official announcement about the system. Also I take a quick look at my profile page and there was nothing new. I was shook at first but its all good now. Nicely done

[Mr.Spider703]

great joke theymos
have long tried to understand what it is and where I have so many bonuses

[Oasisman]

Oh my god took me about a minute to just stare at the new stats and rank requirements and was immidiately rush in meta section. Just forgot what day today, actually I was too busy about the easter sunday activity celebration lol.

[vintages]

Guys, I am beginning to think it wasn't the usally April fool day game because I saw some of Theymos reply to a post. He is serious about this.
Here, he confirmed it is real;

It actually is a real stat (counting instances of "thanks" etc. in posts). But he has a lot of posts.

Here he explained what the virtues are;

The seven virtues are chastity, temperence, charity, diligence, patience, kindness, and humility. Any true Bitcoiner will fully exemplify all seven virtues, of course.

And here, he explained how the imaginations, politeness coins are calculated;

Politeness, Imagination, and Coins were calculated based on all of your past posts, but they don't update real-time. fMerit, Virtue, and Karma do update roughly every 20 minutes. But only Staff, Donators, or VIPs will find themselves able to adjust their Virtue that quickly.

He is serious about this but most people aren't taking him serious because of the day he implemented it.

I was astonished also to see some "marks" under my name, and thinking it's April fool today only to find out it's true, and it's real, the next thing to do now is how does some of them works ...

[Opurum]

I see these new set of stats on my profile right now and that brought me to this thread. Can someone properly explain fMerits, karma and immagination, and how they count, please.

[murgorx]

Okay, it that April Fool's joke or is it something legit? I really hope that ranks won't be dependable only on Merit in terms of further progress. Is there an admin thread, where this is a bit more in-depth explained or ?

[CntryBoy]

I suppose we will all find out on April 2nd if it is a joke, if all the new ones disappear.... 

It is definitely interesting to speculate some of the meanings and calculations, either way!

[shaman11]

[BTCforJoe]

The real joke here is that these stats are, in fact, real.

[brotherwood12]

if you want to be polite , use sir and please , and then your polite point will higher and higher
just get bit shock after seeing someone profile with bunch of number on their profile

[Tallos]

I logged in and was afraid, what does it mean. Nice joke, 1st april I forgot . ¨
But Merit is also good joke and could be removed after 1st April, haha

[hase0278]

I'M SO CONFUSED WHETHER THIS IS A JOKE OR NOT

You will surely get enlightened tomorrow or some day within this week like what CntryBoy said. If this system is still here after a while, we will know that theymos is serious about it. I admit that I got freaked out when I have first logged in today and am surprised to see a lot of numbers on everybody's stats but thinking about what day it is today, it probably must be an april fools joke only.
