It quite easy to spot threads from those who don't seem passionate about things they post.
that's why every shitty posters can't grow on the forum because the merit system is a restriction on them, some are just trolling and meant not to stay, but in doing this they don't care about the forum's rules or the posting requirements to the expected standard
You kind of feel they are trying to impress others for rewards or attract attention to themselves.
to say the fact we may all have fell into such shoes even without our awareness, or sometimes things may change along the way from the initial proported plan, here's what i mean here, some join the forum without having intention for campaign or merit but along the way they discover a need for that.
wonder if they will continue to post if viewers, merits, or paid campaigns disappear completely?
some may while some may actually not because if we are to take a look into the current status now, we still have some users not in campaign neither fo they care about the merit and have been active on the forum, maybe they post less with quality.
