Recently, new/ lower ranked users tend to create new topics on merits or post new threads in those topics with the hope that higher ranked users will send them sMerits for joining, posting, discussing their ideas. I am not sure that all of those topics/ threads which created/ posted by new accounts are high-quality ones. Nevertheless, they simply did it and kept their hope. That's the fact of the forum recent days (about 1 week after the launch of merit system). I believe that over time (might be 1 or 2 months), they will realise that using the approach won't help them to get sMerits, then they will stop creating spamming topics and posting almost identical threads.
Let the forum a little bit more time to adjust itself and let users more time to realise the mechanism of merit system.
Yes, i agree with you, i studied several foreign sources, where i learned a lot of useful information for a beginner and not only, then i translated them and decided to share the knowledge accumulated in my local thread, i saw a few merits and i am grateful to those who have appreciated me for my work.
Indeed, sometimes the information can be repeated, I try to avoid it, I often see some stupid posts that will simply be plagiarized without change and are appreciated with merit, at first I thought it was enough to post something original and informative that you deserve, but it was not, so we lost the enthusiasm ...
