Question about sharing merits

[lovesmayfamilis]

In fact, OP, you will soon feel a pattern, the more often you give merit, the more you will receive. There is a topic in the meta, whether it is necessary to return merit to the one who gave or appreciated you as a token of gratitude. Although there are many denials written there, that it is not necessary to do this, the psychology of people is such that having received merit, a person wants to do something similar back. So don't hold your merit as something of value, just if you see a post worthy of your attention, give it merit. By doing so, you show others that the post may be interesting for others to read.

You can decide how to spend your sMerit and it can be on your choice for any reason but spend it on the post which actually deserves. Even a newbie can earn 500 merits so he will have 250 sMerit to spend which means he can spend all of them with no time frame and nor restrictions.

From Jr member to Member, all thanks for those who rank me up, I want to ask a question about merits, as a member account owner is it proper to merit someone else? Or too early to be sending merits to others? Thanks.

JangoUnchained, when you click on merits in your profile, you will see the following message:

''You have received a total of ... merit. This is what determines your forum rank. You typically cannot lose this merit. You have ... sendable merit (sMerit) which you can send to other people. There is no point in hoarding sMerit; keeping it yourself does not benefit you, and we reserve the right to decay unused sMerit in the future.''

I would say that everything is very well explained here.
This is the key part: ''There is no point in hoarding sMerit; keeping it yourself does not benefit you''.
So, you got the merits not to keep them to yourself, but to reward good posts of other users on the forum.
Other users have rewarded you with merits for your good posts and now is the time for you to do the same 
Congratulations on your contribution to the forum so far.

As a junior member i have also wondered how to use or how to merit someone and also when to merit someone, i also thought only high rank members can do that. Thanks for asking this question anyway i know its going to help alot of new members here.

Every time you get 2 merit, you will have 1 sMerit which you can send to other users. This means that for every 1 merit you receive, you will get 0.5 sMerit and it will be accumulated every time you get a merit. So far, each sMerit send to another user has a minimum value of 1, and a maximum of 50 sMerit in a month for the same user.

I hope you can understand it correctly, and it's not what you think so far. Sending and receiving merit is not limited to ranking, that's not true because as long as you have sMerit then you can always spend it on every post you deem quality. You can also receive merit from users of any rank as long as they deem your post worthy of it.
