Poll: is it OK to send merits to your own alts?

[o_e_l_e_o]

And there are so many posts that are so much worth the merit and everyone just avoids them just because they are newbies.

I hear this a lot, and I spend a lot of time looking for good newbie posts to merit, and usually come up empty handed. I must be looking in the wrong places. Please report all these good newbie posts that are worthy of merit to us merit sources so that we can merit them - [self-moderated] Report unmerited good posts to Merit Source.

Also I have seen dark green trusted member getting merit for 2 words posts. Those people should be banned. That's my opinion. I might be wrong

You are wrong. theymos has explicitly said that you are free to merit whoever you want for whatever you want:

Aside from that, if people complain about whether things deserve merit at all, then that's something to perhaps think about, but if you conclude that they're wrong, then that's that. You don't need to stress about it or defend yourself constantly.

Well this is my opinion and I saw it a lot. And regarding newbies I am not going to spend my alcoholic free time to report random posts lol

i have seen plenty of posts that were exceedingly helpful and they gained 0 merit. some were understandable as they were much older posts however i have seen plenty of new helpful and informative posts in random threads that received no merit.

Then you should report those posts instead of cooking up plans to abuse the system: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5093271.0

I'm not cooking up plans to abuse the system dumbass is showing exactly how vulnerable the system is. if I wanted to abuse the system I could have easily done so the second it came out and i would have tens of thousands of merit. I dont plan on abusing the system, look at my merit, does it look like I'm abusing the system to you? piss off with your bullshit and libelous accusations. Again, if I wanted to abuse the system, i could have easily done so within hours of it being released and I still can because they don't care about making the system true. if I wanted to abuse the system why the fucking HELL would I post exactly how it could be done and why the HELL would i post how to fix it? if you really think I'm that stupid (which it's pretty obvious that's what you think) I still wouldn't report or give any feedback of the system. if I was abusing it I would say "NO! it's a great system! all you have to do is post helpful content!" instead of telling you exactly how broken and vulnerable it is. You know exactly my reason for posting the vulnerability and you try to shoot me in the foot with it with lies that you know are lies about me and my intent. that is the definition of libel. I seriously thought you had a moral compass and that your reports were just false negatives that you truly believed were honest. Well, maybe I was dumb about you.

I figured out your game, whether it is intentional or not, I see right through you.

Chill. this will be the last acknowledgment of your existence I make until you grow the hell up.


Maybe, just maybe, because of you I will complete that script. ill talk to the owners of the forum and give them my vuln list for merit, as a RESPONSIBLE person should, and if they don't fix it within three months (more than enough time to fix this issue) ill release the script

Why? It is my right to write about my showing more proves about it is not my obligation. Tho is a known fact and I have noticed it a lot of times. Just follow the post he gave merit over the last months (vod)

ps. I have nothing with this user but just I noticed this bad behavior.

You're not showing anything new. There have been many newbies trying to butter up merit senders in what they thought would high-earning threads but that never works to any appreciable extent.

I'm 100% against it. It's no different than sending trust to your alt, Ban evasion with a 2nd account, or any other way to cheat the system.

I can only echo the sentiments of others that I don't trust alts that have been given glowing trust (in any form) by themselves - it's as though they are preening themselves in front of a mirror saying "I trust you"... "oh stop it! I trust you too!"

Ok, definetly merit system fucked the forum. People just merit posts in their favor (Vod). And there are so many posts that are so much worth the merit and everyone just avoids them just because they are newbies.

There is not enough merit on going on the network. This is what I believe.

Also I have seen dark green trusted member getting merit for 2 words posts. Those people should be banned. That's my opinion. I might be wrong

Maybe because you are an account seller that is why you are fucked up the most by the merit system. We all have different views about the merits system but the ones who are making the forum a business platform tends to express their opinions negatively. First of all there wouldn't be a merit system if most members here didn't abuse the previous activity only ranking system. But some abusive minds like you made it into a business so that is why we have the merit system now it is just a product of your own wrongdoing.
