No to Merit for sale

[Scripture]

Hey guys, common. Ive heard a lot of people willing to pay just to get merit, but what for ? Do you think imposing merit system is just a public display where higher acquisition of merits means higher IQ on the cryptocurrency market? No. Maybe its true that earning merit is almost impossible now, but why would you need it badly? For having a large payout if you are being promoted to higher rank? Wake up! You have all what you need to. Bounty campaigns is just bonus. If you are here just to suck blood from it then better find another one rather than this. Gaining knowledge and updated news from this forum is enough, then do the rest with your own effort and legworth. Success is sweeter with your own effort.

yes, I agree with you Merit system is applied so that we think more to work hard and think more intelligently than for an easier destination by buying from other members in this forum. so to get Merit I think is the most stupid thing if we buy from some members who are in this forum. because by doing that of course there will be no science that we can get by doing observations of crypto.

Is this true?  Even if it is true I can't imagine why people interest to buy a merit, I think the quality of your post could growth your merit at all. I juat wonder, how much the price for it.?

This can be true and for sure those person are really greedy. Merit is just normal now, and I see people fully adopt this rule but some of them are still making way to cheat, don't be greedy because you will face the consequences of your decision.

[Sadlife]

People buy merit not to look intellectual or to display that they have good posting quality but to rank up and have greater pay out and to join and to get easily accepted in bounty and signature campaigns. The merit system is good to improve the posting quality of users but there are also decline of bounty campaign's because few users can only join and might affect the revenue of the site.

[Potato Chips]

Welp. It's money we're talking about here. There's a lot of greedy and desperate people for it, and if you told them they could earn a handful of money just by spamming one forum, surely they'll flock here with no hesitation LOL.

Aaaaaand that's exactly the problem here, it has become a money making platform for some people. Now the merit system is introduced to halt those account farmers and spammers who are abusing the forum, they can't rank up without making substantial posts.

[goaldigger]

Im 100% agreed with this. I noticed that this forum becomes a fortress of those people who only just wanted to earn through bounties and campaigns and obviously, it would take a higher rank to earn a high payout. People would do anything to earn even buying merits from another member here in the forum. This thing should stop. If someone sends you a personal message regarding this matter, expose him to get red trust. We should be all fighting fair.

Maybe its true that earning merit is almost impossible now

I disagree with this. Earning merit is by far not impossible.
It is just that few subs are extremely spammed by low quality content. Threads inside these subs get read way less, therefore less merit is given on average.

But for high-quality content merit is still being given. There are a lot of helpful guides, answer to questions, tutorials, discussions, etc.. which all receive 5+ merit.

If someone wants to receive merit, he should create quality content. Not just the daily average price discussion talk..

This has happened since the new merit system was built, I've seen this on multiple treads but no one has taken seriously and I've said that this is one of the moderator's responsibilities, But still no one responded to what I said.

Maybe some people here are too desperate to have merit, or can’t post a quality one. Well, its been 6mos since this rule implemented and yet people are still asking for a merit. It will come to you as long as you derserve it, its better to have it through your work than to take a shortcut using your money.

You can't conclude that the moderators are not doing anything about it. Off course some of the defaulters are tagged when caught which evidence is not easily proved.

Generally, I think the moderators have lesser work to do now about checking on merit cheaters because most members don't even have smerit to appreciate a post. I think the merit thing has really died down and most people have taken their present ranks as their fate

Its there but if any DT notice that someone selling or buying the merits they will be tagged for sure. Mostly small rank members and people new to the forum only go with this service mate. Please check the meta section if possible there will be huge number of merit related queries at there.

Kindly ignore the merit problem if you want to join for bounty projects. Most of the bounty projects will be take you for the campaign when you have acheived the junior member itself so after quality posts only will take you up.

Buying merit is not a good idea.
you will rank up with those little merits you can buy until member or maybe full member.
but thats it you will have a hard time to get into senior member as the Smerit is not renewing anymore.
About the quality post, most post here even have the highest quality has not been merit yet.

That is so unfair. There are lots of people there thinking deeply what to post, what to put on what would they answer, something beneficial to the forum and to the bitcoin community as well, but not even earning a single merit. While the others was there trying to be lift up by their on money, posting shit, nonsense, short lines but acquiring tons of merit just because they had paid for it for them to be promoted. It is so unfair, especially fot those people who are working hard for it. Money deceives, indeed. No to merit buying.

It's true indeed that earning merit is almost impossible. What I am doing now is do my best while joining bounty campaigns. Contribute to the forum with good quality posts. I don't even care now if I get merited or not, as long as I know I can contribute to this community that is enough for me. Ranking up with the help of cheating means nothing, buying and selling merit means cheating, so I would rather rank up with my own effort and knowledge. That's how I can gain my success.

Merit is like the word "respect" for me. You earned respect because of the post that you made. The good quality,effort and knowledge that you shared. So this kind of mindset is so awful for me.Well, people nowadays are so greedy specially when it comes to money.We all know Greed can make people do some strange things, which leads to committing unlawful acts.With bitcoin you just need effort and time for searching to learn about Crypto so you can make a better and good quality post

[Crypto hanna]

The current merit system will probably force people to buy books on amazon and study the technology will an intention to understand and be a part of the change for long

If they don’t understand technology or spend time learning it, they will probably leave bitcoin ecosystem once they become rich.

The purpose of bitcoin is not to make “weak hands” rich so that they can leave one day. The purpose is to ensure that “weak hands” become “strong” and help bitcoin change the world in long term

[Pearls Before Swine]

Bounty campaigns is just bonus.

I'm pretty sure 99.X% of the shits who post in the altcoin section would not agree with this.  It's not a bonus for them, it's a full time career that they are intent on milking until the opportunities stop presenting themselves.

On a positive note:  when the above mention shits do start buying merits, it is usually from members who make it a habit of doing so.  That makes it a lot easier for DT members to tag if they wish to.  Buying merit is thus pretty risky, because while you might end up with more merit, you might also get a nice fat red shiner to go along with it.  That more or less ruins the account (and I do love seeing that).

When you see a typical shit poster laying a fat one down, especially in the meta section where they stick out like a sore dick, and they have more merits than you'd expect from an englishless poster in the english part of bct, you have a dam good idea of how they got that merit.  It's true that they might have acquired it in the transylvania section, but a quick glance at the merited posts will reveal the truth.

[kevoh]

but a quick glance at the merited posts will reveal the truth.

They do not even attempt to cover their tracks at illegally acquiring merits, as they end up giving each other neither 1 nor 2 but 40 to 50 merits on just one shitpost. I don't know whether to call them dumb or just being desperate!

I do not understand what you are saying the covering the tracks. If you see the people illegally meriting it with the payment means you will be able to report that thing to moderator with the button you see about it guys.

Please try to gain the merits with the quality posts and analysis kind of posts mate. These will definitely get you the merits mate.
