Will you guys help me to award merits please.

[Jet Cash]

I'm having real problems finding posts that I think deserve merit. I'm not paid to award merits, I do it because I love Bitcoin Talk, and I'm saddened by the rubbish threads that are started,and the useless posts that clog the others. I only have a limited amount of time to spend looking for half-way decent posts, and the time I spend reporting posts and ignoring people is time I could spend awarding merits.

Wht can you do to help?

There are three obvious things you can do. One is to stop starting useless spam mega-threads like the one that has just started with the title ' Crypto is here to stay ' What a stupid thread for an apparently new member to start. We all know the answer, and there is no sensible reply that anyone with any exposure to crypto-currencies can make in this forum. I put the OP straight onto ignore, and that means I won't see any posts in that thread, but it will take up space in the index.

The next thing you can do is to stop bumping old threads, especially if all you can say is something like "great idea", or " Is this project still running" when you aren't interested in the project.

The third thing is to stop posting for volume. I take a bit of time before I award merits, and I often look at a poster's history, or his profile. I do this because I don't want to feed merits into the spam factories. If his recent posts are low value rubbish, then I won't award, even if his post is meritable, Another thing I look at is his post count to merit ratio. If he's made 300 posts, and not received a single merit, then I assume he's a spammer, and I don't bother to check. If you are serious about your membership of the Bitcoin Talk forum, then you should be able to get a couple of merits out of your first 50 posts. If you can't, then you should take a serious look at your posting habits. Check your spelling before you submit your post, and check it again after posting. Bad spelling, and a bad structure tends to indicate that you are posting in a hurry, and merit awarders may assume this is because you are servicing a number of alts, and we don't want to merit them so that they can continue spmming.

Just wondering , are you the newly added Merit source.
(I just checked today, count increased from 79 to 80 now.)
Any ways , Best of luck for your continuing effort to keep the forum clean.

Your post should be a sticky at the top.
I am NOT the spelling police nor the grammar police but I must ask if "psting" and "spmming" were accidental or on purpose?
I do hope that when you judge merit on a post that you take into account that English may not be someones first language. I have been learning that lesson the past several months.
I also would point out that some of the most intelligent people I know can't spell worth a dime.
And yes those are typos, not spelling errors but to some people that won't matter
Again, your post should be required reading before posting in the forum (after corrections of course).

You are great with what you do, you help other people improve their english skills in the Fit to talk English forum. Wish you luck in creating a quality forum with quality posts. I admire you so much.

Are you kidding? Jet started his post by saying "I'm not paid to award merits"...that's a strong implication that he's not a merit source.

Great call out, quality comes in all forms and each of us has a responsibility to make sure our posts have the utmost of such.

I cut down the number of posts to read by ignoring anyone who is a member of a signature campaign, which is about 80%-90% of the posts. I also don't give merit to Legendary (what would be the point?) Unfortunately, it is still hard to find posts that deserve merit, but I have given some.

[CryptOliver]

How to give someone a merit?
I'm not familiar yet with this word.

Finally! Congrats LoyceV

Completely agree. Other day I started a topic to spot some of these (Two posts in Beginners & Help section needed attention) and I am glad that mods has taken care of 3 out of 4.

I do the same although I do not have a lot of sMerits to spend unfortunately but I ensure that I am not wasting my sMerits.

Do you except fruit or do I have to include a fresh lamb in my offering?

Whoops! I've hammered the keyboard on this computer, and sometimes it doesn't register a letter, or it doubles it. I did read the OP a couple of times, but I made it before my first coffee, so I guess I should have waited. I've corrected the errors, and apologise for my failure to follow my own rules.

Thanks for that, a really necessary topic. If you wish, we can share in here good posters to be rewarded with merit, or you can open another one in the section you think to be the best. I, like you, spend much time in searching for good posters, and this is quite difficult, more and more each day.
To be honest, I usually find many good posters in the Spanish section, in which the discussion is used to be rich and amazing for many users in there, but I will try to find something good in between all the crap and scammers in here, just say where to send you the data so you can give them some merits (I'm almost merit-off).

[Jet Cash]

I wish I understood Spanish. It is a major world language, and it is the mother tongue for some politically interesting countries like Venezuela.
Sometimes I wish there was a board for some of the local language posts to be translated into English for us to read.

[pendulangemas]

Please give me a merit dude

[Jet Cash]

I've put you on ignore. I don't like beggars, and I don't appreciate worthless posting in my threads.

Ummm... I can translate some of the best topics in the Spanish board, or maybe you can open a Spanish section in the fit to talk and we gladly (my girlfriend is a better teacher than me) can teach step by step the Spanish basics. It will be amazing to speak about the two languages, for we can learn much more if we compare the expressions of one and another. Also, you have many Spanish speakers in the fit to talk forum, so maybe it can works...

Regarding the topic, tell me if you are interested and I can search out some good posters so we can give merits to them.

[Poortorich2018]

What I would like to do is to persuade posters to stop making post like this one. It is unintelligble, adds nothing to the thread, and diminishes the posters reputation and ability to receive merits.

Annoying.

always participate in groups and posts and always follow the rules, Thank you and all

Annoying x 10.
So, or you have two alts accounts or the second poster was just copy-pasting a crap answer... You both should be banned for shitposters, and for spamming the forum.
My ignored list is growing fast!!!
