Sendable merit give away contest (Full Member and below ranks)

[hd49728]

I sent some merits from what I earned (217 so far), and I want to give rest of my sendable merits away (31 sendable merits left so far). Today, I announce the sendable merit-give-away contest, for Full Member rank and below.
I wish that the contest will give you motivation to keep doing good posts, as one of your minor contributions to make better forum, by reducing trash posts.
Since 2018, what did you contribute to prevent signature ads removed globally?

Criteria:
- Eligible ranks: Full Member and below (I don't include higher rank because it is logically to have that limit due to my current rank, Full Member)
- Applicants have to be good posters to win contest.
- Good posters mean: having good posts in history, and post quality should have average good level. You can not make 100 shit posts and try to make one to five fake good posts and apply here.
- Applied posts must be made within the last 2 weeks.
- I will look at your applied posts and your post history before sending you my sendable merits.
- You should be a English poster to join the contest (because I don't know your local languages).
- Please re-apply after 30-days.
- Exclusive boards: Please don't apply posts made in those boards: Bitcoin/ Altcoin/ Gambling Discussion

• Cleaning up the house in Bitcoin/ Altcoin/ Gambling Discussion boards

- Don't apply if your posts are Copy/Paste & Reference Link.

- Reward: Only 1 sendable merits for one qualifying applicant / 30 days.

Sendable merit fund: 36.


This thread created as non-self-moderated one, but if spammers join, I will lock it and create a new one, self-moderated!

• Please don't complain that why your application failed.
• You are welcome to reapply with your better posts, but if you complain why I don't give you merits, your later applications will be ignored.
• Your odds to win depends on applied post and post history.
• You will not get benefits for your post quota when I move this thread to Off-topic board.

Apply now!

Good luck.

Haven given out 217 merits so far, what stops you from giving out the remaining 31 to the deserving posts? There are thousands of deserving posts (that has no merits) in almost all the threads. So much that they are practically too easy to find.

You simply do not need help nor contest to give out 1merit per post for 31 posts. You guys are creating unnecessary threads that should have no place in this forum, and allowing it to thrive is a travesty to the noble intention of this forum and it's merit base system.

[hd49728]

Earned 217 merits so far, did you careless read my OP?
Not sure how many sendable merits I sent, but I have 31 smerits available to give away. The sort of contest is legally, like signature campaigns or bounties, if managers manage them well.
Signature campaigns can be stopped if they bring shits to forum, like Yobit.
Merit contest can be shut down too.

You and others who think you are deserve smerits from the contest, are always welcome here.
But not all applicants will win 1 smerit, due to their post quality (in history and in posts they applied here), and my smerits fund is limited.

Just relax for now.

- Exclusive boards: Please don't apply posts made in those boards: Bitcoin/ Altcoin/ Gambling Discussion
Cleaning up the house in Bitcoin/ Altcoin/ Gambling Discussion boards

I'm ok with your giveaway but the quoted part above is were I'm not ok with. Although it's your smerits and I don't have rights to dictate how you spend them still excluding those boards above isn't helping the spam problem. There are quality contributors on those board, i can testify that since I'm a regular visitor excluding bitcoin discussion board.

Those boards aren't recieving enough audience from meriters and when giveaways like this pop up it would had been nice to highlight the quality posts on those boards especially Altcoin discussion. The boards you're thinking of meriting post from already have a fair chance of recieving merit, giveways should give users a chance who on a regular day, have zero chances of getting merit even though their post are high quality and the excluded boards are where such chances can be found in their numbers.

Anyways, your thread have been added - List of Active Merit Giveaways threads.

Well I don't consider this thread as unnecessary what dev is trying to do is to encourage users to start making good and quality posts, and in other to save himself the time of going through the entire forum looking for posts he require users apply for the smerit then he check the out.

I really appreciate this thread. I need 3 more merits to become a full member so I am trying my luck here. Usually I am active in local Indian Board and almost 80 percent of my posts already received merit so I don't have enough post to show you but here I showed you one of my post which I think deserve some merits.

Edit :- Sorry above post link is after July.

Not qualifying enough. Sorry.

I'll give it a shot
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5145434.msg51191114#msg51191114

Sorry, one shot is not enough  . I think you need at least two shots. Just kidding, but it is not qualifying enough, you should try harder and come back next one month, with better posts.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5171722.msg52053153#msg52053153

Looks good, but you made it around two weeks before cut-off time, so you will get 1 merit with next round of the contest. Sorry.

Is writing a thread included in your qualifications?

[hd49728]

Is writing a thread included in your qualifications?

Yes, posts / threads, all accepted.
Threads usually require posters spend more time, and more efforts to read documents, articles, and so forth to compose threads. Nevertheless, it does not automatically mean threads are better than posts, in quality.

Very nice idea, thanks! I know that I dont fit the criteria but would like to highlight a poster worth giving merits to.
I host a thread where people talk about the way how they got scamed. If this thread helps to prevent a single person from being scamed its totally worth it. One poster described his story in detail which would be worth a merit, here is the link:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3839038.msg51914076#msg51914076

(I usually merit those posts by myself, but I am currently out of smerits )


-> The post was written exactly on the 22nd of July, hope it counts anyways

[daneal stev]

These are some of my posts I think they deserve Merit Please watch them and send Merit if you deserve

Those posts do not satisfy the rule

- Applied posts must be made before 22th July 2019.

[ ... ]

I think that poster should give usernames of two accounts scammed him/her. Then people can learn better from it, how scammers do their works with nearly same usernames of two accounts. I will send 1 merit if that post edited. Not sure he or she will do it. Anyway, thank you for pinpointing that post.
