How to get merit?

[FireShark89]

In order to gain merit, i advise to read those threads that gained so many merits. We can learn a lot from them and to have an idea on how to compose a good quality posts.

It's good that the job of moderators have become easier with the merit system, but it's now significantly harder to rank up in these forums...

Merit points are nothing but the value of appreciation for your contribution to the forum. In order to earn merits, you have to share your knowledge with others in a best possible way and then you can expect merits from others. It is not recommended to ask/buy/beg for merits because it doesn't make any sense to it as merit is a kind of respect and it is earned with good efforts, buying it would destroy the core idea of it.

It totally depends on you writing good quality posts, sharing useful informations you know will be unique and helpful to others. It's as simple as that.

I have seen a lot of threads about have to get merit, and how unfair it is for new members, who will never get 100 or more merit.
But I have found out that the best place to get merits are in the how to get merits threads. Somehow people give more likes in those threads.

Besides increasing the activity we also have to gain merit because in bitcointalk achieving merit is very much important.

What will help us to get the merit?

Thank you.

You need to improve your post quality. Read the rules, help the community, make conversations, input your thoughts, be friendly with the community, show them that you are hear for good cause.

I'm hoping that this system will increase post quality by:
 - Forcing people to post high-quality stuff in order to rank up. If you just post garbage, you will never get even 1 merit point, and you will therefore never be able to put links in your signature, etc.
 - Highlighting good posts with the "Merited by" line.

While we will not be directly moderating this, I encourage people to give merit to posts that are objectively high-quality, not just posts that you agree with.

Do not beg for merit excessively.

I've been trying to help the others and be friendly with the community ever since I jointed this forum. I try my best to be regular here. And still I'm pretty sad that I still lack from some merits. And I'm not giving up the hope any time soon. I have my confidence that people judge me as a friendly person. And they will share some merits with me.

If you are unable to earn merit then just buy a Copper membership, it will unlock some good features which members have.

The real problem seems to be an unwillingness to join the Bitcoin Talk community. A lot of people sign up to membership of the forum, and they seem to expect that if they post a lot of rubbish, or trite repetitions of tired old comments, they will be entitled to free handouts of trashcoins that probably aren't worth anything anyway.

Joining the community means that you should be able to take part in sensible discussions about a variety of crypto and Bitcoin related topics, and to bring interesting news items to the community. You can take part in the help threads if you have knowledge of the topic in question, or raise a problem that you may have. There are also some trading and statistical and economic threads that are beneficial to members. In fact there is a very broad mix of information and discussion threads here in the Bitcoin Talk forum. What is annoying, and will reduce the chance of posters being awarded with merit, are the no value spam posts. These reduce the value of a thread, and often result in the poster being ignored.  If you don't have anything sensible to say, then don't say anything, but read the topic, and try to understand the points. If you do this, it won't take long before you have enough knowledge to be able to make constructive posts.

i am also trying to update my rank and get merit but its not so easy it needs really a good work or hardwork its really not easy to update rank and get merit wee need to search and learn everything in the forums we have to post powerful posts..

[James_Potter]

May I ask a question: can I start a topic which it's already opened? Because I can't check all topics in our forum

I think first it should be the quality of the posts. If you post something valuable here and if someone sees the value of the post then you will be given merits.

To rank jr member must require merits to rank up to rank next, to get it can be said difficult.
Because we must make a quality post, quality and must use the correct English, so seniors give merits to us

[pbitmallx]

I have also been puzzled by this issue. Even if the topic I posted or the reply is very good, it will help everyone. However, other people also cherish his Mert. They don’t want to give me his Mert and I cannot get it, yet.

[friends1980]

Not opening another thread would be a good start to earn some Merits.

[nakamura12]

I assure that you know the bitcointalk forum rules if not then read the forum rules. After reading the rules you can construct post and you can avoid violating some rules when you post in bitcointalk. Actually there is a GUIDE on how to earn merit.
Just visit this site and you can find useful comments there https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3182178.0.

Someone nailed it the other day (and I am paraphrasing): "Merit is like sex, the more you think about it, the less you will get." Keep that in mind.

[Albertio]

the rules are now different from last year, this will make it difficult for newbie to go up the rankings because you need to improve the quality of your posts. Read the rules, help the community, create interesting and positive conversations, then you can expect people to give merit.

[CryptAssist]

Sorry, you're just not quite "quality" enough. Maybe someday.
