Merit for newbie.

[Jet Cash]

If you think the merit system is unfair to people who don't have English as a first language, why don't you support some of the English improvement initiatives that are available through Bitcoin Talk? It would do you a lot more good than spamming some crappy bounty scam.

I have noticed that mostly the higher members of this forum received more merit even their post,

Blah, blah, blah. How many times have I read this story on meta before? Higher ranked members have been in the business, so to speak, much longer than newbies (with some exceptions). That’s why they know more and earn more merits.

Won’t people get tired of writing these kind of posts at some point?

Basically yes but a lot of them are free merit given, 50 sMerit as "like" funcion from social media. This idea of "like=ton of merit" can be found also at newbie rank. Example? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3262704.msg33995730#msg33995730 43 Smerit.

When you post a useful article with many people, someone will give you merit instead of thank you, I think so. merit will help you increase the rank in bitcointalk. You just have to work hard to post good and useful content or reply to help people then you will have the ability to be merit people.

You guys never had it so good. We had to through Newbie Jail when I joined and we weren't allowed to post on the main part of the forum. It isn't that it isn't Newbie friendly but that most Newbies only come here because they read somewhere they could make money from posting here. The few Newbies that come here because they heard about Bitcoin and were interested in learning more about it and getting involved have no problems at all.

Well, the outlook might be right but not all the time. I have observed the restrictions and new rules implemented by the moderators because of several abusers farming accounts here in this forum to sell accounts. So in order to lessen such things they implemented those rules, rules that are not friendly enough not only for newbies but for each and every one of us.

Incorrect...

check the below out..

To be honest, I'm speechless for your kindness towards people like me (which is non-english speaker).
I have nothing, but thank you so much, bud. Will never forget you and your kindness!

That's a post by a newbie from the 3rd world, the big thing is he took some advice, didn't post for a few weeks and spent that time improving his English, there is a lot of hate towards the shitposters as they caused the forum to go drastically down hill. Now as people join, if they read the stickies, educate themselves and ask relevant questions (not ones that the answer can be found on the same fucking page) then they are welcomed into the community.

The negativity towards merit comes from people who cant do something and don't want to learn, so in other words the lazy, who really gives a fuck what lazy people think?

No, it has actually changed due to merit system. Newbies are warmly welcome, but if they are spammers, the forum has strict rules to make them sad.
Due to merit system and new rank requirements, only constructive users can earn merits and rank up to levels higher than Junior member rank.

Honestly merit is not like a star in the sky rather it is like a moon in the dark night. Once you have it you hit the moon and I can say you are the happiest person in the world for hitting the moon in the dark. Star can fall easily to the ground called black hole while the moon never fall but can be seen on its season. I will not complain about it for I know I can't do anything to stop merit but accept the fact that it will come if I deserve. Actually I'm dreaming for merit and I know that it is like I'm punching on the moon. For now much better to keep quiet and let us play the game of betterness with merit.

Merit system is hindrance for those who want to rank up. What is the true basis of getting merit?

Soon we are going to need a Meric Doctor for those addicted ones.
Merit has increased the mental illness some people used to have in the forum or it just more visible now?

[hoangvuthach]

Everything you need is in the op post of the forum, please read it first.
Do not post content like this, you will not have any merit at all

LOl, are you kidding?  It's rough even more older members!  It's an aggressive, competitive, sometimes mean-spirited forum, and I think that has a lot to do with how much scamming goes on here.  People get stick of having to constantly walk among pickpockets, and it makes them a bit prickly.

For noobs?  Yeah, it takes time to become established and it's hard.  Sometimes it seems as though most newcomers are just out to either scam or to post nonsense.  It's definitely harder on them, but most of them are deserving of whatever hazing they get.  Most, not all.

make a quality post

There's that phrase again.

practice a constructive post

And again.

you should write good quality post

And again.

Well you will need to take the risks though , don't think that merit is a big hindrance , instead of thinking that it is a barrier or a wall to rank up think it as an motivation though.

One of the factors to get a merit is learn , read and be more useful , try to practice a constructive post something like that , be motivated though , think that its just a challenge that you will go through.

[dauwaz]

That is not an obstacle. Merit helps the bitcointalk community grow stronger. In the past, you just posted a lot of posts that you can increase your rankings in bitcointalk but now you need to post better quality posts to help get more people into your community instead of just posting activity spots. increase rankings.

[fuck4ass]

In this forum, getting merit is not an easy thing. Condition you just have to make a quality post, constructive and useful for forums and users. Post quality is not only seen from the length and number of posts. Because the length is not equal to the quality.

[Heroonnone]

It's very hard to earn some merit (for the newbie it's the most difficult), you should write good quality post, useful advice. On my mind if you do not know something very profitable, you do not get merit.

I think your forum name is important as well.

[Bershie]

We should be thankful for the merit system. Its giving us us more time to read and educate our selves before posting. Quality post are skipped because we are aiming to get more higher profit in just a short time without respecting the rules of this furom.

Aim away from failures and success is continueous.

Don't you think, now you are spamming meta section by posting these posts.

Here is another thread you posted. Just stopped doing this.

I think it's not a hindrance if you know what you are doing , the true meaning of merit to build or to mold you / us to a better poster , to be help each and everyone of us. It shows us to read and to learn , here's a link read this though .
