Application For Merit Source [Philippines Local Board]

[markdario112616]

Theymos did also announced a 36? new merit source along with the new restrictions, I wonder who are they or is there a way to know who are the merit sources as of now? Well, to be honest I'm still expecting that your request would be granted.

Worst come to worst, I hope that other kabayan's would step up and do what you did. If only I have the courage, knowledge, and/or self-esteem to do it, I would but I'm still not that confident though. I hope that 1 or 2 of those new merit source are Filipinos, though let's just think positive sooner or later theymos could look into this and grant OPs request. Good luck!

God Bless to your mission Kabayan!That's the true filipino spirit of helping each other not only in the real world, but also here in bitcointalk! Mabuhay ka! Hope you will be accepted!

Hopefully, the reality is near. As of now, still not accepted. Tried to check it out by trying to give in to the local board, still no avail.

There are a lot of possible members who are worthy to be merit sources in our board. If I'm not accepted, then that's just it, I hope others step up so we could help improve our local board more, not only regular posts should be done but more activity with quality.

I also wonder what are their basis in order for you to qualify on the said position. Plus what is taking so long if they haven't decided yet or if they think that you don't qualify then they must have sent you a message regarding with this application.

Hi I’m crwth. I’m applying to become a merit source. The merit distribution in the local board Philippines are not that big and I want to help by focusing most of the merit to be distributed on our local board, Philippines, to help my countrymen and improve the quality of posts with merit.

[INFOGRAPHIC] To all newbies, read this before opening a new thread

Bitcointalk Merit Guide.Illustrated by: theyoungmillionaire

TMAN'S guide to getting merit.

• He made it easier to understand for the newcomers to this forum what the forum is and how they can improve the experience with the forum. With opening of new threads and a merit guide to go along with it.

Wow, this @theyoungmillionaire guide says it all, no doubt he deserve to be merited more for being some creative and informative in his post creation. My opinion, topic should be pinned for easy accessibility by newbies, it will help them a lot.

crwth, keep up the good work, I love the zeal. The 10 topics you highlighted are all quality posts but to proof your point more and convince others (although you have already conceived me) I advice you draft out another 10 topics that deserve merits to prove your points (more) that you deserve to be appointed a merit source because of your ability to spot quality posts. Hope your desire get fulfilled.

Absolutely! @theyoungmillionaire creates thread and share all the possible information we must know.

I already suggested that in our local but still the thread hasn't been notice by our highers. So I think they're just tolerating shitposting in the local while gaining incomes. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4912128.msg44243959#msg44243959


the thread is already has 4 months existence last Wednesday. Still hopin' @crwth to be accepted for the betterment of the local and the forum!

[fakegurutu]

Seeing a lot my local fellowmen here is quite amazing and Im so proud how they were working hard to have a massive contribution to this forum. Im learning a lot from these guys especially in our local board. Keep it up mate. Hope they will consider your request to become a source merit. Mabuhay.

[crwth]

Thank you for everyone Who supports me, especially those from the start. It has been a long time since the application; it is overwhelming. I'm not sure if I will ever be accepted, I hope that our local board members would be inspired to create more amazing topics that have not yet been touched, especially on our local board.

For the suggestions, I would do my best to be active more on the boards and supporting our fellow men who deserve it. Let's do our best to be better!

[deguzmanwacky]

Nice! Our country needs a merit source since there are a lot of quality posts but hasn't got any merits. I find some posts very helpful yet it never got anything in return. Now with you sir, there will be a lot of potential for Filipino members to get merits and rank up. Good luck sir! Kudos to you

[Insanerman]

Crwth any good news here mate? I've been inactive for about a month and it looks like i missed a lot of bad and good news here in bitcointalk. If I am not mistaken, the last time I am active is when theymos implemented 1 merit requirement to acheive Jr. Member Rank, and he also chose new 36 merit source. Are you one of them? Or maybe not?

[glenntalbot]

I support crwth to be a merit source. We do not have enough merit sources anywhere. I recognize him as a "established member" of the bitcoin forum. What else can we do to support applicants to be merit sources?

[sheenshane]

Thank you, Insanerman. As of the moment, I do not see myself as one of the merit source. I am just happy working backstage helping people here.

You Ain't fit for merit source. You are eligible IMO on staff or Global Mod on the coming future, you have the quality and a mind of staff.

I fully support mate as our merit source. You have been helpful and active on our local board and our source ain't doing anything at all just meriting here on meta, not like on other local board that their merit sources are active in their locality.

Gave this man a sauce already.

Thanks to @DdmrDdmr for his Analysis – Merit per post per Section/Subsection. I saw lacking merit to our local board and we need you cwrth as a merit source.

[crwth]

Thank you for bringing this back up @sheenshane, a lot has changed towards myself and my ways to this forum. I hope now it can be seen as an improvement towards myself and how I treat Merits and with that, development for the members of our local board as well.

I have recently posted an analysis of how our local board could benefit new boards and how activity there would add up. I included there reference towards how posts, topics, and child boards play a role in it. Check some of it below.

Arranged from highest posts, topics and child boards


Arranged from highest posts, topics and child boards

The Philippines local board are among the top 8 with topics and posts and having only one child board. I thought of this as something that could translate towards the addition of child boards, and maybe it could affect how much people would come into bitcointalk and be active. What I wanted there also is that Bitcointalk to be the central forum and everyone who is concerned through cryptocurrency would have an account and discuss all things related to a particular topic, maybe off-topic or Politics and Society.

In summary, I would like to re-apply to become a merit source. Supported by some of the evidence above, hopefully, I could be a great addition to it.

This may help to give some additional context to the merits being awarded on the Philippine local board:

A-   Merits awarded per month (March 2019 partial):


B-   Top Senders


C-    Top Receivers

[crwth]

Thanks for adding context @DdmrDdmr

It's sad that some of the top receivers and senders are abusers. I didn't know that it is worse than it is, especially being one of the active members of the local board. I want to make sure that it won't happen and also being fair towards every member.

The post by finaleshot2016 has highlighted those people who have been good and abused merits.

Ohh come on, I smell something fishy here. Why @theyoung is only second as a receiver in our local board? young done many great post/helpful post in our local post and active giving to rightful merited post. That is not fair I will dump more merits to him there.

crwth is now a change member of the community and he is willing to help.

Thank you @DdmrDdmr for your local merit stats.

Upon doing research I found that this JaoBadjap is probably merit trader:
Only Legend knows.

You guys decide which post must be deserved to get +50 merit.

Curious this,
Is this worth to have +50 merit?: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1358010.msg25918933#msg25918933
https://archive.fo/OC0g3

Or compare this one: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4544266.msg40904432#msg40904432 .
Who happened not getting +50 for the effort STarter made to do?

Definitely not worth the 50 merits that were sent. Maybe the guy thought that if he merits a very old post it wouldn't be seen. But they are not very active anymore. Maybe focusing on one account now. Lol.

Gonna have to put this thread up, Pilipinas Local Section is really in need of Merit Source, even if we have Dabs and Mr.Big(rickbig41) still they just doesn't count...

Reason:
Dabs is always at the WO
Mr. Big is busy I think and unlike before he's not acrive anymore for awarding Merits (mainly because he's a GM)


I don't deserve to be a Merit Source but crwth is. Though I can say that he has given his all here, and yet something more has to come.

theyoungmillionaire is pretty much busy as far as I can observe, but still he's giving some of his earned sMerits if he happens to see one.


We would like to push this forward for having just a Single Merit Source in our Local. Compared to the other Boards that has enough Merit Source to award new users.

It wasn't enough just to have our earned sMerits, IMO. And basically, it depends on time whether we received it or not, it's not always christmas... we might end up getting nothing in this coming days. So we'd better have, even just a Single Merit Source

I also excluded them (Mods) they are already a merit source. Basing on the image @theyoung is the highest giver in our local board and if ain't for those deleted post in our local board s/he should have more than hundreds merit sent to our local with just earned smerits. Luckily I also included as giver on top giver in our local board (top #6) you and crwth are also on top 10 merit giver.

I don't deserve to be a Merit Source but crwth is. Though I can say that he has given his all here, and yet something more has to come.

From @DdmrDdmr stats

I always see @theyoung active here, ain't see posting but still active on whatever s/he is doing. @theyoung for sure can be a source on our local board if s/he wants to apply all support are with him/her and crwth has also the potential for merit source aside from @theyoung.

If only more source can dump him/her some merits for sure @theyoung will flood our local board with merit to those who are deserving, I trust his/her judgment on quality posting as well crwth.

[Daboy_Lyle]

I will support you until you become a merit source Philippine(Pilipinas) Local board has no merit sources but only the moderators which is they don't really send merit to a good quality posts who deserves it. Most of good quality don't even received enough merit that will help the author to work hard on his/her next post because if you receive merit now I promise that you work hard on your next pots. In that case Philippine btt users will be encouraged to make good quality posts.

[yazher]

We Support you to become a merit source, not just because you are our fellow countrymen you have helped a lot of people in our local board especially newbies who are having a hard time understanding the rules and regulations of this forum.

You, Cabalism13 and theyoungmillionaire are our inspirations to become a better poster. You showed us that if we make an effort and strive to become a good poster, indeed we can become one. We may be far away on what you guys have achieved, at least we have progressed even though it takes slowly for us.
