I appreciate merit system to reduce spamming from forum. Of course it was implemented for reduce spam and shitpost. Some how it's useful for forum reputation. Merit system keep role to avoid shitpost and spam. But now a days merit system become corrupted by merit abuser. You can check on reputation board. There is many thread about abuse merit system.
I appreciate them those are given merit for HQ post. But question is there is enough time to find HQ poster for merit source or merit holder? How a quality poster get attention to merit source or merit holder ?
For this reason people getting merit on shitpost. Even they are getting merit for reporting on bounty and replay for ANN. It dose not matter they are not punished for that . But are you think that bounty report can be HQ post? I think not. So what you think if some one received 20/30/40 or 50 merit on bounty replay post. This is not call corrupt?
So what about who have make quality post and he didn't received merit ? You will find reputation section many merit abuse thread. This thread only those are caught. But there are many abuser that not yet caught. And it's not possible to find.
Vision was for merit reduce spam and shitpost. Yes it's success. But how many percent it's success? Do you think it's need to upgrade again ? I think it's important to upgrade. Otherwise a good person or quality poster can't change their rank on his life time.
The reason is this thread, even we can't stop corruption but you should consider merit system for HQ poster.
I have no much ideas how it can upgrade. But what I think , at least open a new board or section that for claim upgrade rank. So those are think he made quality post and he deserve for rank up or merit, he can apply. In a result those is merit source and merit holder, they can simply check & review their profile, they are deserve for rank up or not.
I apologize if I am wrong. I just share current situation.
I don't know this is right place for this thread or not. If need move you can suggest.

Then nothing else matters. Over time all will be fine. However, taking some hard actions against merit abusers will alert the abusers a lot. They won't dare to abuse merit. Merit abusers are giving silly excuses and saving their ass.

Be happy be at peace. Looking forward to BTC at $1M

You don't need to do any of that. All you need to do is to read the threads all over the forum that offer help to quality posters, and you need to act on the advice. The board is littered with threads and post by people whingeing about the merit system, but it is significant that very few of them can actually be bothered to take the advice to improve their posting.

Many changes are required in merit system in my opinions as well :
1) With current format, it is working good in terms of encouraging new members to make good posts to get merits. But the spammers who are here to promote fraud projects, growing accounts to sell later and not affected.
2) One of the most important benefit that I believed should have been reducing the useless spam, irrelevant and repetitive posts in discussions. That problem is not solved at all even after merit system. This makes finding good replies harder.

Your point is right. Even some one promoting scam project at the same time they also build their account rank by getting merit. So I believe this system should consider for upgrade again for fair merit system.

TLDR: O.P if it clearly shows that you have a hard time earning merit just spend your time to do something important whether (online or offline). complaining and whining entitled as a bad character of this community. I apologize if I am wrong. I just share current situation.
Apology accepted like I am the owner of this forum. However you need not to worry about the situation we all witnessing the same experience consecutively every weeks. Let the forum rot inside but do everything in your power to save our community. In this time of our existence no one force us to join in this community it is ourselves dwelling for the new era of payments.

For this reasons people getting merit on shitpost. Even they are getting merit for reporting on bounty and replay for ANN.
Honestly, I don't get this point too. Why on earth would any sensible person merit the OP of any signature campaign? Could there be anything HQ about a signature campaign OP to deserve a merit if not that they who are sending such merits are greedy shitposters who are only out for their bellies worth and in the excitement of seeing a campaign floated (after a long stretch) splash merit on it? I think the DT members should start tagging such people for abuse.

To be honest, you didn't understand the merit system at all. You are on the wrong boat. Here no one is going to find a high quality poster and merit him/her. How merit will be given? For example, I need some information on "how merit systems work'. For learning this, I need to check theymos thread on merits or other thread. So, if I got satisfied with an answer, I will merit him. That's how merit works actually. It's nothing to find someone who post good quality and merit his/her post. In a word, merit can be compared to "Like button" on facebook.

As long as people have free will then they are going to give merit to whatever posts they like and they're isn't really anyway you can police this really as it's purely subjective. Sure, people should probably only be giving them to helpful or informative posts but a lot of users seem to be just using merit as a 'like' button, and that's usually what seems to be happening with bounty threads (or they're just trying to kiss ass so they get chosen or something). I don't think people should be wasting them on bounty threads but there's no rule to say they can't, but hopefully people will realise that doing so is mostly pointless and their merits would be better sent elsewhere.

Absolutely you can make thread, those are abuse merit system we can post there. At least some thing is better then nothing. On the other hand every body will know merit abuser to stay away give merit them. I have post myself about merit abusing. But there is no action. That's my question. Even they are not punished , no problem. But those are working hard to make QH post, at least trying. We should give them chance, so that they will be more interested to keep this forum spam free and make more HQ post.

Enlightened self-interest means that they don't consider the awards wasted, even though it is destructive to the forum. This is why I am considering creating some personal file to avoid feeding the sub-culture here.

I will appreciate if you have any suggestion for me. Currently, I am continuously writing in a blog for improving my skill in English. Do you know about merit source? Is merit source need to search for post ? So how they came merit source ? If they need to search something on forum. If not search so how will find HQ post ?
You have been merited 4 times. That doesn't mean someone searched for HQ posts and got your post. Finding a HQ post is not the job of a merit source. If it was a job, every quality poster would be merited. Forum is a place where different kind of people join for different purpose. People with the interest of what is happening in bitcointalk forum deserve to be a merit source, not a people who is here for earning only. If someone has real interest in bitcointalk forum, he will definitely go through most of the HQ posts. So, of course, if something can attract his eye, will be merited. Edit-Please don't try to be oversmart. You have to study more English.
Would appreciate if you had a look on your own post. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.ibb.co%2FiroE7d%2Fdd.png&t=665&c=9GL6EjjNq9ADYQ)

Your suggestions is a very good one. If there's a separate thread where people can come and voice out that they're good posters and their posting history gets reviewied for ranking up, I think it will be good as it will give everyone who feels sidelined by the merit system an opportunity to atone for it.

At first I thought that the OP was addressing the problems ongoing about members and there alts cheating the system. But then I read his potential solution which is creating a new board for merit sources to see members who wants to to rank up fast. Which gives me the conclusion that it is not all about the corruption after all but about ranking up fast, he didn't brialliantly hid the fact that he is getting a hard time receiving merits while worthless ANN threads are getting dozens or even hundreds of Merits.
