I'm thinking of running a topic starting contest for non-english speakers.

We have like what 1000 good posters or less, realistically.  I don't really understand what you're trying to accomplish here, but you could be spending your time in much important things.

A community of 1,000 intelligent and articulate members is a valuable asset. If you also consider that there is a fairly wide global distribution, and that most of the members are sceptical of the current structure of governance and banking, then that is a very unusual community.

I am aware of the vice like control that the US and English elite has over the western world. The EU is just a tool they created. A great deal is changing and the nationalist/populist movement is evidence of this, The elite are countering this with their eugenics plan. An obvious part of this is the vaccination initiative driven by Bill and Melinda Gates. There are many global experiments and test projects that have been activated around the world, and it is my belief that Bitcoin is one of these. It is important to understand the impact and interaction of current political changes, and to try to plan for the maintenance of a comfortable and healthy life in the future. If I can generate a few good discussions about economic and political conditions in a variety of countries that are being used for these experiments, then it will be a great help to me, and some of the other members here who are prepared to consider the realities of modern life. I had hoped to create such a thread about El Petro, but Venezuelans seem reluctant to discuss it.

Sweetstar has submitted this post about the Mexican local elections.

We will discuss this post, and possibly add a few more points before bringing it to Bitcoin Talk for further discussion here. I'm being a bit selfish, because this is the type of discussion that interests me. Hopefully there are other members here who will also enjoy finding out about the political changes around the world.

Maybe it is also necessary to post in the thread already existing meaningful posts that have grammatical errors and are difficult to read by the english native speakers. So the native speakers can require appropriate changes and the author will be able to correct his post. This will benefit all participants.

I appreciate the efforts you are making, but as pugman said, you are just going to waste a lot of your own time and the results won't really be as good as you might expect them to be. Someone should only do something like this if they have a lot of spare time and have nothing else more important than this to do. Otherwise, it doesn't seem to be much of a necessity to me as well since I believe a person who is even mildly constructive and is making efforts will eventually reach the position he deserves to, and the ones who don't get Merits are actually too lazy themselves and mostly don't care about anything else than accumulating a few tokens every week.

Anyhow, if you do this, I would also suggest to reduce the bonus Merits after a thread is chosen to be the best among all. A little boost for a new member making efforts should be enough to encourage him to keep doing that. Maybe just give them enough to rank up to Member rank? And then let them make it to Full member by themselves.

Crypto-currencies as a means of wealth transfer durng migration.

I have dealt with such a person. I will write on it and its impact in my opinion and then I will post in fittotalk for correction.

I have started a Merit give-away topic for Dutch-speaking people in May 2018.

I have not been too difficult about it: if someone sent a somewhat coherent link with a topic or a reply, proving he was not a plain spammer or nonsense poster, I gave him at least 1 sMerit.

We are months later, in my last post, I almost have to BEG for people to want them.

Thanks for all the concern about my possibly wasting my efforts. As I have said before, I don't have the same ambitions and economic needs as most members here. The only really important considerations are whether my efforts are of benefit to the forum, and to it's members.

I believe that the free exchange of political and social information between the world populations is important. Bitcoin Talk is a great forum for such interaction. I'd be grateful for any help and/or advice in achieving this goal in these difficult times.
