The master list and chart are current as of last Friday, April 16, 2021.

Since I haven't updated this thread for a while, I have published stats for two months at a time. LoyceV is the leader of this TOP-200 in February 2021, mole0815 took the first position in March 2021.

As far as I can see, the number of newcomers who received the merit within one month has returned to 350.

I think more merit should be flowing through the ecosystem, which should allow more newbies and low ranking users to rank up.

I think the number of newbies supported does not directly correlate with the overall monthly allocation of sMerits. It goes without saying that if a newbie posts garbage on the forum, he/she will never earn a single merit because merit sources only send sMerits for messages worth at least reading.

Wow I never knew someone keeps track of this too... bravo!!

Well I always try to give credit to newbies and I know how encouraging it can be because once I was in their place too.

[The Sceptical Chymist]

I could have sworn I merited at least one newbie last month, but I didn't even make the list this time.  Dang.  I do my absolute best to be generous to members at Newbie rank simply so that they can rank up to Jr. Member and overcome those Newbie restrictions on posting and PMing, but I guess I just sucked in March. 

Pretty sure I just merited a Newbie today, so I ought to make the list for April once it comes out.  Once again, thanks for keeping this updated, OP.

Wow I never knew someone keeps track of this too... bravo!!

Well I always try to give credit to newbies and I know how encouraging it can be because once I was in their place too.

I keep tracking all the users who support newbies for almost three years starting September 21, 2018. Perhaps the first merit received is the most valuable to newcomers. Indeed, it may encourage a new Jr. Member to earn 9 more merits to become a Member, and so on.

Pretty sure I just merited a Newbie today, so I ought to make the list for April once it comes out.  Once again, thanks for keeping this updated, OP.

Yes, I see you on these lists. You supported 5 newbies in April and 2 newbies in May. Thanks!

Thanks for your stats.
Then I was actually only just once beaten by LoyceV... otherwise I already spend the whole year 2021 at place 1
I will do my best that it goes on like this.

[The Sceptical Chymist]

Dang, I could have sworn I merited more than two newbies!  I guess I say that every month, but this time I would have probably put money on it if I'd wagered anyone. 

For the month of June, I'm pretty sure I've already merited at least three newbies, so it'll be interesting to see what the stats show next time they're posted.  As always, thank you to OP for keeping this list updated.  It's one of the ones I pay most attention to, because Newbies and Jr. Members are the ones I try to help the most.  It isn't always easy, given how much garbage those ranks tend to collectively write, but sometimes I do find some gems that deserve merits.

[Ebede]

The sweetness of forum is to make a post and you receive award of merit without asking or exchanging merit from person to another person, so therefore for this list above my post of helping hands that always remember that newbies have to grow, i think the list is accurate and believe that so many of them are merit source, even without been told ogNasty, DdmrDdmr and cryptopreneurbrainboss, this people always help newbies with Merit.

Another two months have passed, so I again actualized the master list on the main page of this thread.

I looked at the graph and noticed that not many newcomers were supported in June 2021, but in July 2021, after adding 14 new merit sources, a lot of newbies received their first merits and the chart line went up.

Thus, since September 17, 2018, 15181 non-banned newcomers have received at least one merit.

I also published monthly statistics for two months at the same time. Ratimov became the leader of this TOP-200. In July 2021, he even supported over 200 (!) newbies. Amazing result!

For the month of June, I'm pretty sure I've already merited at least three newbies, so it'll be interesting to see what the stats show next time they're posted.

The stats show that in June 2021, you merited not 3, but 7 newcomers.

As always, thank you to OP for keeping this list updated.  It's one of the ones I pay most attention to, because Newbies and Jr. Members are the ones I try to help the most.  It isn't always easy, given how much garbage those ranks tend to collectively write, but sometimes I do find some gems that deserve merits.

Yeah, finding these gems among tons of rubbish can even be considered work. Thanks a lot for the newbie support!

[klarki]

Russian locale loves to help newbies. 

I'm shocked. You are really crazy You're really crazy! Where does so much energy come from?

[The Sceptical Chymist]

Ratimov became the leader of this TOP-200. In July 2021, he even supported over 200 (!) newbies. Amazing result!

Damn, that's a lot of merits being given to Newbies.  Somehow I think my standards for meriting newcomers are higher than for other ranks (and I guess that's backed up by my merit-giving history).  Or maybe I'm just not seeing the good posts being made by them in sections I have ignored. 

But hey, I made it to #20 this month, which is an improvement.  Once again I could have sworn I merited more Newbies than that, but I trust your data, Coin-1.  I'm going to try to get better, though I think this month will probably be a lousy one as far as this particular metric is concerned, as I'm not off to a good start.

[LoyceV]

Somehow I think my standards for meriting newcomers are higher than for other ranks

Might I suggest changing this? My reasoning for Meriting Newbies is quite simple: the Merit system was introduced to stop spammers. If a Newbie isn't a spammer, he shouldn't be restricted by the Merit system. That means my "standards" for Newbies are lower than for others.
Both Bitcoin and Bitcointalk can't grow without new users!

I wasted a lot of time. About 1 hour a day.

It's not "wasted" if it's put to good use
Meriting 200+ Newbies is just impressive!

[The Sceptical Chymist]

Somehow I think my standards for meriting newcomers are higher than for other ranks

Might I suggest changing this? 

You absolutely may, and I respect your opinion--but I'm not sure if I'm willing to lower my standards or not.  I will think about it, though.

The problem (that I've ranted about ad nauseam) is that most Newbies just don't make good posts or, as I said, I'm reading threads in sections where newcomers are just posting crap.  I certainly do want to help lower-ranked members, but I've had the opinion for a long time that most new members are here just to make money, so they're not putting in a lot of effort when they write--and it shows.  Anyway, I'll sleep on it and appreciate the input.

Both Bitcoin and Bitcointalk can't grow without new users!

Besides, holding newbies who are new not only the forum, but quite possibly Bitcoin or cryptocurrencies in general to the standards of others users is a little unrealistic. Plus, I believe progression is a big motivator, hence why we track progress in most industries. If they are receiving merit, they'll get the bug, and want to earn more, which will likely encourage better quality posts.

It's partly the reason we have a lot of merit sources, so that the distribution of merit is varied. It's good to some extent to have different standards, and different merit habits. Though, I'm not actually bothered if I believe a user is posting simply because they want to rank up, and eventually earn. We all want to make money to a certain extent, it is whether or not that post is detrimental to the forum, obviously if it is its likely to fall into the scope of moderation, but if not then merit takes care of that grey area. However, if they are contributing good content, I don't care what their motivation is in posting. Good content to me is good content.

The problem (that I've ranted about ad nauseam) is that most Newbies just don't make good posts or, as I said, I'm reading threads in sections where newcomers are just posting crap.

Obviously don't Merit those I often Merit users who don't post again after their first post. They come here to solve a problem, and after they're done, they don't need the forum anymore. Those aren't the best users for the future of the forum, but they are genuine (Bitcoin) users.

I certainly do want to help lower-ranked members, but I've had the opinion for a long time that most new members are here just to make money, so they're not putting in a lot of effort when they write--and it shows.

Usually I can guess their motives from their posts. And as long as I'm not too high on the Top senders to permabanned users list, I'm not worried.
