Discussion of the merit system should be banned from Beginners & Help. The off-topic merit system spam slides down threads about Bitcoin. Beginners & Help is a forum for helping newbies learn about Bitcoin, NOT a forum for discussing the merit system.
Furthermore, as seen here, such posts are usually just idiotic spam fishing for merits.
You could somewhat make a proposal for that in META, as I somewhat do agree but the mods has transferred most of the Merit Thing Topics here in B&H, I remembered making a topic in Meta but now it is here and same with the others. Might be good to inspire but the whole thing to ask and twat about Merit is a different thing. So yeah, I do find a good cause Banning this from here or maybe transfer them again back in Meta?
