The ratio has always been that of getting 1 sMerit in your balance for every 2 earned Merits. That is the same for everyone, but additionally Merits Sources get an extra monthly supply (different sMerit inner counter, but sMerit just the same).

When the system kicked-off, you had some onetime airdropped sMerits in your account, based on your rank and activity over the prior year. In your case, that allowed you to send more than you received over the first few months, and may have led to the 1:1 perception somehow.

I am not a merit source (I planned to make my source application on the beautiful day 02/02/2020 but I did not finish it as consequence of something unexpected) but I have my strategies to do if I am a source:

Setting up a max cap of daily smerits will be given away.
Filling the gaps of un-used sMerits of previous days (if you don't find good posts to give away)
Never pre-use your self-allocated sMerits.

I could be wrong but obeying these rules will help you lifting up the level of quality of posts you will give your sMerits on. For example, if I set up my daily cap at 5, I must find only 5 best posts each day to send my 5 sMerits to. There are days you find many good posts (more than 5, and you will have to choose the best 5) and days you did not find a single good post.

I have some statistics for your local (all outdated ones).
Your local is the sixth most actively local boards on the forum, based on statistics. Wink

Quote from: tranthidung on November 29, 2019, 02:59:46 AM

Based on the criteria, the top 5 active local boards are:

Russian: 1505 posts/day
Indonesian: 545 posts/day
Turkish: 376 posts/day
Chinese: 213 posts/day
Pilipinas: 174 posts/day

There are two sets of criteria but I would like to choose the rankpost. There is no reasons for now to combine two criteria sets.

In median, there are 7 merits distributed daily on your board (it is an outdate figure, and I guess the statistics has been risen recent months, but not too significantly).

6. Pilipinas

Code:

-------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
merit | 555.0 11.8 18.9 7.0 3.0 15.0 1.0 331.0

Outliers are days have intra-day merits above 33.

Code:

. di 12*1.5

Most of outliers occured since the April of 2019. Lots of effects from merit sources in that board, definitely.

If I were you, I would not do that, giving away merit is an objective matter for every person, whenever we see a worthy article, we can ~~post it~~ send merit, it may be random. However, it may be one, maybe 10, it doesn't matter, it should not be restricted Wink

I don't mean to be rude to you

But look, you act like a pre-programmed robot Roll Eyes

whenever I see posts from you, it will be statistics, analysis, calculations and data, ... WHY??? Huh

We are human, let's act based on our emotions and thoughts, don't work like a robot, figures are not everything, there are no rules here.

There are always special cases when you give more than your max daily cap (if you set yours) but I still believe it is better to have a max daily cap.

I am stat enthusiast and not all of my posts or threads are related to statistics. See Cheesy

Statistics are not everything on the forum but theymos (the core admin) has to rely on statistics (from his own algorithms) in order to make changes or improvements on the forum.

I do neither attack OP (cabalism13) nor the Pilipinas local board (I visited that board sometimes and gave some of my merits to their locals as well). Statistics I gave above disclose the fact that board is one of the most active local boards on the forum.

To decide adding new merit sources or increase monthly sMerits for each or some specific current merit sources in that board, I don't know it will become true or not.

I do neither know how many merit sources are in that board nor how many sMerits allocated for it monthly. Those figures compared to those figures of the whole forum make sense for any potential changes.

In total, the forum has:

98 merit sources
21671 sMerits allocated monthly

Source: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=merit;stats=sources

If you are curious about historical changes in merit sources, see at: Merit source observations

Quote from: ChuckBuck on February 19, 2020, 11:54:22 AM

To be honest, I didn't understand how we could calculate the amount of sMerit we get

There are two available services for you:

[TELEGRAM BOT] Merit, Trust List, etc. [INFORMATION]
Unofficial service to get your total merits in the last 120 days (I am not a bot, so you do need me online to fill your request).

But it is unnecessary to use those services just to know how many sMerits you have left. Let's click on the merit button and you will be directed to a page, on which you will find your available sMerits. Cheesy

Just a wait a bit mate. Those smerits will come as refill is on the way. Maybe you will be surprised to see if the allocations were doubled. Grin

and theymos listen to the need of more smerits. Many in our Local users are probably waiting for you too. Lots of good posts are stuck with 0 merits. Hope some merit sources go there for some quick visit. ( I have also lots of local post without merits) Anyway, I will also spend some again if merit spree comes underway.
