Think about merits like Facebook likes or Reddit upvotes that are a lot harder to get because you actually need decent knowledge about bitcoin and cryptocurrencies for other users to think if it's worth giving you merits or not.

P.S. If you're here without any knowledge at all and you're here just to rank up and earn coins through bounties, forget it and get a job instead.

You can get merit if someone send it to you and they think your post is useful.

Before you want to earn merit, better you learn more in here and find knowledge.

You want merit?. You'll need knowledge about this forum like the merit system and forum rules. You would also need knowledge about cryptocurrency. Most people learn from their mistakes and able to change what they must change. Focusing on helping people who needs help and contributing to the forum will help you earn merit. Don't focus on merit because merit can kill.

If after just a few minutes on the forum, you're looking at how to get merits, we should assume you have had prior knowledge about how the forum works and the use of merits.
All you need to do is do a lot more reading, forum rules and regulations, profile informations and also read stickies on threads before making posts.
Note that there is a zero-tolerance policy for plagiarism and the forum is also averse to spam, which can get you temporarily banned and if done excessively permabanned.
Note, that it's a gradual process, concentrate more on the journey and knowledge you'd gain in trying to learn and contribute.

A very important tool would be the SEARCH option. There are answers to almost all basic inquires you would have. You can use it according to your specification.

thanks for the information, I just need to focus on understanding what forum means. read, research and understand more about the things to be needed on this forum.

Hey wasalak07,

Don't bother getting merit at this stage. Merit will come with crypto and forum knowledge by itself. Better focus on reading "Beginners & Help", as I suppose there will be more questions from you soon

Good day, I just created this new account a few minutes ago.

So the first thing that came to your mind was how to get merits? Makes me wonder that you are not new to this forum at all.

Anyone can suggest how to get merit.

If you are going to be one of those people who try to "hunt" for merit, then you wont get any, I am sorry. This is a forum and a forum is meant for discussions. Take part in discussions in as many sections as your knowledge allows you to and, someday, just someday, some kind hearted soul will grant you some merits.

And what is the purpose of getting merit?

Honestly no purpose at all. Merits dont restrict you from posting in this forum. But they help you rank up. If you want to know more search this forum and make it a habit to read more than type.

Here are some of the old threads or guides on how to get merits:

Don't take the previous comments personally and consider them as constructive criticisms to help you improve in this forum. Best of luck!

Just be yourself and be open-minded about learning new ideas. Getting merit should not be your end goal but some additives that you bump into along the way.

[Nnuego]

Getting a merits requires quality post and composed comments. Get yourself involve in threading discussion. Don't just post because people are posting, passed information and idea that someone will read and benefit from. Maybe someone might reward you for that

@TheUltraElite you caught him in the first line this account looks like an alt to me, and I believe that this account has been created with the sole purpose of transferring merits to the original account holder. As many before me have correctly said there’s no need to hunt for merits, one should simply keep making constructive posts and then merits will automatically come. The only purpose of merits is to stop spamming on this forum, and compel users to make constructive posts and so far it seems to be doing a good job.

[Little Mouse]

Forget about merit, explore yourself on the forum, learn new things, share your knowledge, help the fellow mates on the forum. Just don't do all this steps for getting merit purpose. You will get merit once you do so.

[alexcopper]

Time and participation, keep sharing your knowledge and communicate daily

[Febo]

And what is the purpose of getting merit?

Purpose for you is to demolish some restrictions as you have now as newbie account. You can now post new post only after some time had passed, same as sending PMs to other members. You cant use avatar picture or signature. Also as the name suggest if you want to have more merit on this forum.

Good day, I just created this new account a few minutes ago. 

Then welcome to the forum even I know that you're an old member already.

Anyone can suggest how to get merit.

If you are asking this because you want to rank up then forget about it. People like you who are asking "How to get Merit" and the likes are those who want to rank up easily so that they can earn higher in the bounty campaigns. Anyway to answer your question, if somebody found your post constructive then they will give you merit. Even one word post can be merited (pure stupidity or an alt account maybe).

And what is the purpose of getting merit?

To prevent spammers to rank up and earn higher in bounty campaigns. I know that most of the newbie accounts here are created for joining in different bounty campaigns. Merit system prevents these spammers and accounts who are only posting reports for ranking up.

Hope I answered it OP. Good luck with your journey here

Why would someone want something when they don't even know what it is?

Merit is a byproduct of generally being a good egg on here. If you go after it with laser focus that's going to be picked up on and people won't be inclined to hand it over. There are thousands of try hards with none.
