If you have time and want to urge get merit to check the links given and advice by the other members, basically getting merit is mostly got by contributing a content thread or reply in a particular discussion that helps the community like answering the question, giving information that all of the interested people with the topic will get an idea and information can be used too. Dont urge to rush get merit just enjoy your staying in the community and by that you can learn and earn merit.

Tell us why you need merits. Your steps: registration and the third post with the merit question. I'll give you merit if you tell me the really important things and why you need them.

  OP, even if you're new and don't know how to use the forum, it would be helpful to just click the links. Take a look around. Find out what this forum is. And why do you care about merit more than knowledge about bitcoin? Merit questions are very popular, so try to be original, and your merit will come to you very soon.

I was thinking about how to answer OP's question, but then I saw your post and realized that you voiced roughly what thoughts I had. Short and clear, enough for understanding, but will newcomers understand, because as soon as they appear on the forum, they immediately begin to ask questions, the answers to which have been discussed many times and are easily accessible. And all you need to do is look through the sections that are relevant to the topic and find all the necessary answers. Bitcointalk is a unique knowledge base and useful information that you just need not to be lazy to look for. In the discussion here, links to the necessary topics have already been given, so I will not duplicate and I would like to believe that OP will look through them. From myself I can add that in order to get something (merit), need to give something away (time / energy). So just nothing is given, both online and offline. You always need to make efforts and diligence, both in finding answers to your questions, and in getting merit. And yet, if you are a beginner, before creating a new topic, think 10 times whether it is worth creating and check 10 times, maybe a similar topic already exists with your question. Good luck with your forum search.

You desperately need to read the rules, frequently asked questions and in general the pinned messages in board like Meta and this board, I don't see how you have little knowledge about the forum and you making it a superior priority to put merit fit. Bottom line no text book to getting merit at least non documented, as you get scores for research or project in schools I can say it almost similar to getting merits.

[Crpyto hunter]

It for poster to understand the rules in the forum,
So that it may give advantage to end a good and reasonable post that can be admire by the viewer in the forum,
Reponsble post comes with merit to show the level of understanding you have gone through,
Going to research on what is you no that can post that can  make and impact to the forum and anybody to read it,

Well speaking lovesmayfamilis...I support lovesmayfamilis and also will give you (OP) merit if the reasons of yours are accepted by lovesmayfamilis.
 I believed the OP is asking the merit base on the orientation gotten from the source of his or her information about the forum, that is the person who introduced the forum gave the OP is the caused of all these questions. I don't think the OP will have a good reason of asking the merits if not to rank up and join campaign. Look at this, why a newbie asking of merit instead of reading and learning. When a real newbie comes to the forum and ready to learn, it is very clear to identify them. They ask reasonable questions and learn things from the forum and earn merits from the learning process. Although mistake is inevitable. That not withstanding. OP you can earn merit when you post quality post and make a reasonable comments to educate people.

OP, if you're still lost as to how to get your first merit, there are two main ways in which you can go about it. You may be able to earn by helping other members of the community out with their problems, or you can write about something that can be of help to the community in a wider sense. The former option is a lot more reliable, especially if the subject you're trying to tackle is something you know well. Just think of it as making yourself useful and you'll be on your way to earning your first merit and advancing on the forum. Most importantly, if you want others to like the work you do, don't force it - let it come out naturally, and you'll find that you enjoy contributing far more than you think. Good luck!

To get merit points you have to do some unique tasks like making unique posts , making educational posts, helping others by providing information and by catching scammers. So try your best and you will be successful and get more merits.

[Lida93]

I need some orientation on how Participants get merit.

If it is shared, how is that done too?

Please let's help each other out.

One would have expected that as a newbie questions that are focused on how you can leverage on the opportunities made available here in the forum in acquiring and gaining expertise in everything about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies and how the decentralized system operates.

Many newcomers may not know that there's so much benefits to get from this forum that much outweighs just having a merit.

show me how to fish, don't give me the fish........ how about that?

What you need is basic knowledge of cryptocurrency and an understanding of how this forum works but merit giving to posts that are useful, quality or solve someone's issue.
Meanwhile, making useful posts also doesn't mean you'll be giving merit because merit is given independently. However, you can report your unmerited useful posts here
Welcome to the forum.

Merit are like ranks that shows the hierarchy of the members of the forum, and merit are earned when you share useful information in the forum and someone finds it interesting, it like paying you for the useful information you shared so it encourages you to share more useful information in the forum. And it is used in signature campaigns, and you get paid with it.

[Juwel580]

No one will give you merit just like that if you have talent you will get merit already you have many sets browse them like another bitcoin discussion then your alta coin discussion these you browse them you give your knowledge about bitcoin in you or  If you have girls about rocket then you post that merit here if your post is useful to someone or if someone wants to reward you on that post of yours.  They will reward you thanks.

[DVlog]

This section of the forum is full of topics about how to rank up and get merits. You still haven't found how to get merits!!! I think a lazy ass like you doesn't deserve merit as an appreciation.

Do explore the forum and figure out the quality of merited posts and comments. Smart people do not ask for the way they created them.

[Falconer]

I think a lazy ass like you doesn't deserve merit as an appreciation.

But the OP has got 1 merit for this thread, do you think it's worth it?

I can't expect all newbie who come to this forum to have as good a reading interest as expected. But to find pinned thread doesn't seem as difficult as one might think. Beginners tend to ask questions by creating new topics about what they are interested in even though they are basically repetitive topics. If you don't like giving advice, then ignore the topic instead of getting angry at the confusion of newbie. I think this is not the last topic created with the same question, there will be other topics in the future.

I want merit because it will enable my rank grow in the forum and I will be able to join signature campaign and earn some bitcoin.
Or
I need merit so that I will be able to enter Jr member rank and be able to post images. I want to promote my business but I don't have money to purchase copper membership.

I need some orientation on how Participants get merit.

For you to get merits (good number of merits), you must ;
First, show the forum members that you have understood how the forum works by reading the rules of the forum. No one is willing to hand out merits to someone who might likely be banned for not understanding forum rules.

Secondly, if you understand forum rules, you will automatically understand how to earn merits. Meanwhile you have to Learn before you EarnMerits.

[Laurendaldin]

I found one topic where anyone could submit a request and get merit. And I left the application because, at that moment, it was like a game for achievements But still, it's just a forum. Try to communicate, write posts, and one day you will receive a reward.

Don't be too hard with newbies! He just registered this month, we can understand if he still has a lack of knowledge related to forum issues. Not every person is aware to find out something by using the "search" feature. Some newbies who expect an instant answer from experienced members may do the same way as OP @Mkelgodson. Although it is not the best way to do, but it is still understandable.

Do explore the forum and figure out the quality of merited posts and comments. Smart people do not ask for the way they created them.

You are right about this. To know how people got merits, check their merited posts. OP @Mkelgodson should understand how the posts got merits.

[Daniel91]

OP, as far as I can see, you've only been a member of this forum for 2 days, you've only written 4 posts and you've already received your first merit.
There are members on this forum who have been here much longer and still have no merits.
You have already received a lot of answers to your question and I believe that you have understood the point, write quality posts, help other members with your knowledge and experience and you will get new merits.
I believe that you can now lock this forum topic, considering that you have already been answered.

[Franctoshi]

I'm curious if it's merit that brought you here, whether you come to learn about Bitcoin or you come to earn merit because the last time I checked this forum is a place to learn about Bitcoin and its related activities, you should have at least spend sometime by going through various board or create a thread defining or telling us about your mission into the forum and how you can navigate the forum in getting such information and this will help your way out into the information your seeking while merit comes about when you share information about Bitcoin or related things that are valuable.
