Anyone else having trouble earning Merit?

[masulum]

I am surprised to see how you productively spam after you get your first merit. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1567923;sa=showPosts

maybe the OP forgot getting merit wasn't just because of how much the posts it made. However, merit will be given by members because of their perspective to see the post itself. We don't need to create a lot of posts, just make sure if the posts is make someone thinking it deserve to get merit, such as based on the fact, based on experience, fun to other, or something else. For example, I am giving your post one merit, because I am happy with your activity, which sees the OP's activity that wants to get merit but what he/she doing wrong. A simple thing, but it will change my perspective.

It is not. OP made posts (after have first merit and was able to wear signature) is to spam. You can count how many one line posts were made. You can see how short time two posts were made after each other (1 - 2 minutes).

Yes, I'm checking it before create this posts, and see the time interval of OP posts

Hey. OP will lose the signature soon.

So far, the Uniswap users have locked in over $100 million in the Uniswap liquidity pools.

Dfinance

Dfinance is an innovative and unique project which is blessed with a renowned and experienced team that has a track record or integrity and excellence in the cryptocurrency space and is committed to the success of the project. This project has quite a few innovation features and I personally liked their wallet and interface a lot. They also claim that you can create your own financial instruments which seems very interesting.

Bancor

Bancor is a non-custodial DeFi platform offering users a way of swapping the crypto coins without the need for a centralized trading service. The DeFi platform also offers smart tokens to its users to increase the liquidity in the protocol. Currently, Bancor has so far accrued more than $11 million in crypto.

… And while at it, why not propose the post for a merit or two in a Merit Giveaway:

The above goes to prove intent in plagiarism. To be fair, it’s a bit more than a simple copy/paste, as it goes on to changing some words and omitting some phrases here and there, but the essence is not a summary, but rather a copy/paste/spin.

One could sometimes wonder if the person left out the link, but postulating the content for a Merit giveaway leaves no doubt in my mind that the intent was to pass someone else’s work as his, this is plagiarism in action and intent.

[gentlemand]

This tells me that somehow OP has comprehensively failed to take the large amount of careful advice on board and indeed actively digested it and sharted it straight back in our little faces.  

Some people are not fated to progress. Looks like merit is doing the job it was created for.

[Taskford]

Select those boards where you post since if you just stay on spam mega threads as well look at the quality of your post.

But what most important is be constructive make sure your post is contributing to the topic as well help others by answering if there's a question as since its merit worthy if you guide some people if they didn't know on what they are doing.

Also OP don't give up although its really hard to get a merit but I guarantee you that its really worth it when you got and rank up.

Please read a few posts above. OP plagiarised and intended to plagiarise in order to earn merit. He applied the plagiarised post in a smerit giveaway.

I wonder that you only read OP and write your post. The topic is on the third page then it is not enough to read only OP.

Sometimes it is really not harmful to read what is written above. It seems like some people only think about the number of posts for their subscription company.
As I wrote above OP, most likely, this is not your forum. Cooking or something else might inspire you more. OP, being an old member, you haven't even learned to read the rules.

Luckily for him there is no downvote or anti-merit button here.

It's funny to realize that he is wondering why he is not gaining any merits having posts that are plagiariased and mostly aren't helpful to the forum.
For me this OP is merit begging. He might be thankful that someone gave him a merit. But just found out that he is has posts that are plagiarized.

Very unfortunate OP, next time please follow the rules...did you even took time to read them? Make changes on youself. You'll improve surely
Just do the right things

Next times will be considered as ban evasion. Don't try next time is the right thing for OP.

[LoyceV]

Less than 4 minutes after SomeJasonGuy created this topic, he sent me a PM asking for Merit. This was my reply:

How about you make at least 1 good post first?
I've reported some of your posts, the Merit system was created to stop spammers from ranking up. It's working just fine!

Marcel

It looks like you're trying really hard to earn Merit by creating generic posts that don't add anything and aren't worth reading. One of them looks like plagiarism, but I can't find conclusive evidence.

To answer the question in the title: Yes, I'm having a hard time earning Merit too, my LoyceMobile should have been a Hero Member already, but it only earned 198 Merit Merit broke my life

[LbtalkL]

I am not having trouble with it because I am not thinking and expecting for it, if it comes that's good if not still good, don't frustrate yourself in having merits, merits are just extra bonus, the knowledge we learn here in the forum is the real thing. Just behave and communicate with other people , let us improve ourselves and keep learning maybe someday we can help other members too.

[Bttzed03]

I held back from giving the OP his first merit because I want to observe what he'll do next. I'm glad I did.

Merit begging, burst posting, plagiarism which he even submitted for merit consideration. Impressive!

I've been a member since 2017 but somehow have not been able to earn a single merit. lol. Does anyone else also have trouble and what can be done to increase ones chances of getting some?

Hey Buddy,
I have gone through your post history and found out the reasons why you haven't earned any merit so far, I'm sorry to say this but if you really want to change you could take some steps forward to avoid this incidence of lacking merit if you want to earn and move forward.
Here are simple reasons why you're short of merits since 2017.
[1]. You probably a low and average quality poster.
[2]. Your account is completely created for bounty hunting and your post history is all about bounty reports.

Those reasons above restricts you from earning merits, you could go through this link and read more about the merit system, rank and activities.

[Mostafiz878]

Me also the same condition like you.
I joined this forum  in March 2018, but till now I have no merits. That's why my rank is not up.
At beginning my rank is automatically up as Jr. Member but after few days my rank automatically decrease and become a newbie again. LOL😅

[DdmrDdmr]

<…>

Yet despite that happening on the 17/09/2018 (see Enhanced newbie restrictions & requirements), the numerous threads on the topic, and the wave of giveaway threads, you still prefer to focus exclusively on bounties, which is completely your prerogative, but that is a path that shies away from merits. You're not really a Newbie because you have no merits, but because you have not attempted seriously to write non-bounty related posts that may lead to earning some.

Looking at your post history, all I see are bounty campaign reports and nothing much else, so no wonder that you are still stuck at newbie rank for so long, and if you continue with that practice, you will stay there for quite some time.

This forum is huge with vast amount of knowledge and it is a shame to focus on one tiny part of the forum that is keeping you at the newbie rank. Be more active in other boards, learn and share knowledge and you will rank up. As simple as that.

[Peanutswar]

You can easily rank up and get merit if you keep contributing to our forum with the use of your knowledge related to the question and makes additional information to the OP and other members.

Also, you can be creative like creating a website or a game with the references to our forum.

Most of the time there are some events giving merit also some of the members are giving too just to help other members to rank up just to comply with their requirements.

Me also the same condition like you.

You cannot get merit easily because most of your content is all about bounty reports. Merits are given only to the member who makes a good and constructive post.

[FARid211]

I think the system of getting merit now not easy for everyone like me. In my view, The previous year system is very helpful for everyone. Its about more then two years i have join the Forum but merit is 0 cause of no quality  post.😪

[robelneo]

It's unfortunate that it took you two years before you earned your merits while others only took months before they earned theirs and rank up, yours is not an isolated case many newbies experienced that, some of the reasons are not reading the forum rules and not contributing enough to the discussions if you think that you are following rules and contributing but you are not still getting merits then find some members who are generous and had a thread for newbies and low rank to qualify their posts for merits.
I once had a thread about giving threads for newbies, I think I helped about 10 newbie accounts or more to rank up hopefully I can create another one soon.
