It's no good looking on the beginner's or discussion boards. They are all about bounty and air drops and social networking stuff. I'd like to award members that are interested in Bitcoin and reputable crypto currencies, but I've almost given up trying to find them.

I've found discussions in the technical boards to be quite interesting, and surely of a better quality than most boards.. Maybe take a look there? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=6.0https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=4.0But, you're right. finding "NEW" members in these boards is still quite hard.

I have the same problem. I need to get rid of sMerit. I'll send you 20 merits to track Cody Ceci down for civil proceedings. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

I visit the tech boards, legal and serious discussion, and a few others if I feel in the mood. The meritable posts seem to be by seniors though. I feel that I ought to help junior or new members, but they are either on ignore, or they are hiding from me. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I have been known to visit Meta as well.

The newbies that are here to learn won't care about merits, the newbies who want to rank up quick for the bounty moniez will.. I've tried to help newbies but only end up meriting senior members.

hello sir, i think that merit should spread around all members, many members working hard to rank up but no merit receiving even though good and helpful posts. i have many excellent posts with large information and would be grateful sir if you consider would give me some merit. i only like reputable currenices like marinecoin and bitcoincashgolddarkprivatediamond. i am new by the way.
Seriously though: Certainly when I was brand new, I didn't feel like I had the knowledge or confidence to contribute in the technical boards, and so a lot of my early posts (and early merits) were in either Bitcoin or Altcoin Discussion. When I read/comment on those boards now, I sort by newest threads first (add ;sort=first_post;desc to the end of the url). The first few replies after a topic has started is where you are most likely to find original thoughts and not just endless repeats, and you can tell pretty quickly whether an actual discussion is forming or whether the threads is turning in to another shitposting megathread. Don't know if that's any help to you? YMMV.

Hey - we aren't playing, this is serious. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I used to enjoy looking around, as I found some interesting threads that I probably wouldn'y have opened had I not been distributing largesse. Recently it seem to be more annoying than interesting. I thought the merit system had improved things, but there seems to be a new influx of members who don't care. I start to wonder if it is a load of bots who don't have aspirations above Junior.

I start to wonder if it is a load of bots who don't have aspirations above Junior. I must admit going through some of the sections is sort of like wading through the local sewers. I think the beginners section has always been a little iffy in quality as your going to get basic questions there all the time, but with the recent ICO hype there's more users over there wanting to know about ICOs than Bitcoin. Serious discussion seems to be working as intended. Some good topics popping up and some thoughtful replies. Technical support and Development and technical discussion has always been a good place for insightful replies too. If you are looking to reward newbies specifically though your going to need to go and wade through the cesspool.

It seems a shame, as we should be encouraging the good new members.
Serious discussion is getting some low level stuff fromjuniors now as well.

Agreed. I think the word is out that you can get merits underground so people aren't worrying about it. Theymos should decrease the max merit sent per person per month to 10 from 50. :/

Theymos should decrease the max merit sent per person per month to 10 from 50. :/ Precisely, and that mostly happened on local board section. They can hide them because only two moderators have and can't easily be caught. I think is just enough for a post giving smerit at least 1 to 2 per post, if more than that or more 10 smerit give that is already suspicious that they abusing merit system and having underground sabotage. I've just had this brilliant idea - why don't we have a board for beginners. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Edited: I am agreed on this.

Well I think people, whether new or old, if interested in the real purpose of the forum and understands its basic reason of existence won't just stay in one or more than one chosen boards or sections, but they will be visiting most of the sections to find out what new things are posted in that day. So looking for such people in only a few sections or boards won't do good IMO, but you should be visiting most of the sections to find what you are looking for.

I think it's interesting that TMAN's thread about him having loads of sMerit is dropping on the beginner's board. A couple of weeks ago, they would have been all over it. now it seems as if they don't care.

Maybe consider a trip through the BTC mining threads. There are lots of new members there. Many of them don't even know about merit, or the general crappiness of spam campaigning. They are miners. They are here to learn and share knowledge, not make money off the forum. I've seen plenty of great useful posts on Wallets, exchange, coding, investment, tech tips etc.
Though I've personally merited some, my well runs dry, and since most senior members there don't care about merit, it gets wasted on their pal's one liner reply they agree with. It's a shame really. I've even posted, what I think is meritable, and go unnoticed, sometimes. There are many members there, like myself, that will go years without ranking up, and in all honesty, I just want to have the rank, and coins, my signature space is donated to helping the community.

I don't know how they seem to not care at all? Maybe they have accepted that they won't rank up anymore? Or maybe they just don't care since they can still earn some cents with their ranks?

I wouldn't put it pass them that they don't even know it exists and just want to know where they can earn their money and how. I don't look at the newbies section very often but, it's clear that most of the posts there aren't about Bitcoin at all rather they are about airdrops and ICOs. Plus, these types of ICOs and bounties don't require you to be a certain rank and they encourage spam around the forum. So even if they know about merit they probably don't care as long as they can spam and get their tokens...

Yep this is correct, some of the most hard core posters are here just to gain/exchange knowledge on their particular subject. Their speculation is in the hardware and sometimes more then small farms so knowing what raises hash rates is really a big deal. Most of the threads I read are alt coin farming but sometimes I read on the bitcoin mining though its been years since I've been able to do this myself sadly. I always thought the network was best when most widely distributed but I guess it couldnt stay that way :/ Some miners do guides and are very helpful to others and deserve more merit and attention then they get but most of the posters there seem to be lower ranks with little merit circulating, so it seems.

At the moment, I've got the alt boards on ignore. This is because almost all of the alt seem to be scams in my opinion. I do need to look at some in the future though, as I want to collect my coins from the Bitcoin forks. I'm also interested in Steem and Wix, but don't really have time to take them on as major new interests. I've always had a hankering to try mining, but I think it's too late for me to mine Bitcoin. I'm tempted to try mining some alt using a Raspberry Pi and solar power. This is really just for the interest, and I understand that it is unlikely to show much profit, if any. Once again, it's time constraints that force me to be realistic about any new projects that I take on.
Thanks for the suggestion though.
