[Merit]Submit an APPLICATION For a CHANCE To EARN MERITS!

[nakamura12]

I know that celebrating my birthday here in Bitcointalk forum is off-topic to start with. So, to make this thread belong in Beginners & Help. I decided to give or reward smerit (I won't tell the total of smerits I currently have) to Newbies up to Member rank. This thread is kinda a remembrance of some sort that I reach Hero Member rank and It's almost 1 year since I became a Hero Member (I celebrate ranking up to Hero Member on November 14, 2021 and I am also celebrating my birthday). Since there is an occasion, I would like to reward merit to those who deserves it. To receive or earn a merit from me is very simple and easy, all you have to do is follow the rules and format when you submit your entry. I will check post history of each participant.


Rules:

• Accounts that are created after this thread is posted are not eligible to join.
• Entry submitted that didn't use the format I provided won't earn a single merit.
• Only Newbies, Jr. Members and Members, Full Members and Sr. Members are eligible to join/participate.
• Only one entry can be submitted per week. (Depends if I still have smerit left next week)
• I have the rights to change/add new rules.

Format:

UPDATE: 6 SMERITS LEFT


This thread will be Self-moderated. If you submitted your entry more than once then other will be deleted.

I'm glad about your progress here on the forum. I don't want to ruin your business here, but...
You should know, everyone can check your profile on BPIP https://bpip.org/Profile?id=1726595 and determine that you have earned a total of 582 merits so far while you sent 267. with simple math, you had a total (582/2) 291 sMerit to spend. when we subtract those you have already spent (291-267) we arrive at the result that you have about 24 sMerit remainings. maybe even less if your profile is not completely updated yet.

maybe we'll agree that it's not too much of an amount to start this kind of initiative, there are already several similar threads but started by members who are merit sources and who constantly have a significantly larger amount of sMerit.
For example, [Merit] Help newbies and those who have a little left to the next rank

btw. happy birthday to you and be well.

This is good mate. I join others to celebrate your birthday with Love. But for the merit you are promising the three categories of Ranks for each week it  might not be achievable because from the calculation above you only have 24 Smerits left then how many applicants do you think will apply for this your promised. Unless you are expecting merit sources to bail you out. That not withstanding. I wish you all the best. Happy one year birthday.

Yes I do only have 24 smerits left. I did not create this thread just to send 24 smerits per week but to find a forum user who post high quality that did not get merited so, this is why I said that it may take longer before all of my smerits are sent. If you didn't get my point, let's say that last week I only found 5 worthy forum users to send merit then that means I still have more smerits left to reward this week. That's what I mean.

maybe we'll agree that it's not too much of an amount to start this kind of initiative, there are already several similar threads but started by members who are merit sources and who constantly have a significantly larger amount of sMerit.

Thank you very much. Anyway, I do have 24 smerits left and I agree with you that the amount of smerits I have is not too much for this thread but as you have known, there's no point in keeping smerits to myself. I haven't earned much merits myself that's why I decided to do this even though I didn't have much smerits to reward. Let's just say, congratulations to lucky 24.

Seriously? 5 worthy members of the forum ? You highly appreciate your merits. I'll tell you a little secret, and advise you to keep it simple. Why hoard? I doubt that all this time when you accumulated your merit, you did not come across good posts. In addition, you yourself rarely receive merit, and this also says something.
This whole circus would be suitable for someone who regularly receives merit and scatters merit after him.
Go to people with an open heart, don't be greedy, and it will come back to you a hundredfold.

PS, You found 5, but gave one.

[aysg76]

Good that you are giving away merits as celebration on your birthday to low rank members but there are certain things which I should say about this particular thread of yours:

As said by @examplens above you only have 24 smerits to send across the forum and it would help 24 members in this thread if you dedicate all to them but can rise if you earn more by the time but what criteria you follow for the merits to be given? Like you are going to review all their post or simply reward anyone who reply here?

With the limited amount of smerits you have at this time you can simply dedicate them to some useful post on the forum as you will find lot of them here in this B&H board only instead of this thread and doing all the efforts as it will help you lot and no worries of hoarding the smerits with you.

With these unclear sets of rule you will see lot of newbies just spamming up the thread in hope of one merit only to rank upto junior rank member only so I think you should find the other approach in my opinion.

[cryptoaddictchie]

Great initiative and happy birthday dude. But it seems the merit you hold will be indeed less to a lot of users might go here to join your contest. Especially this post might get spam by a lot of newbies that will strive to receive merits from you. Why not find a similar thread and distirbute your remaining merits on their post. I think some have long time thread like this, like LoyceV and some merit sources which have a lot of smerits.

[Frankolala]

Happy birthday, congratulations on your one year as a legendary member in the forum. I love your inspiration to assist newbies to members rank on the forum today by giving out merits to them as your birthday gift. Birthday gift should be enough to meet up with the number of applications or let me say guests.

24 smerits is a small number for all three ranks in the forum, if all the mentioned rank applied don't you think that you will have more than 24 good post that is worth meriting. Maybe you didn't prepare for this act ever since,it just thought of it not quite long if not you would have kept more smerits to be more generous

[sheenshane]

That's good and it'll surely help those new members who didn't spot by merit sources.  But just make sure that they're worth it or deserved to have.
It might this was your plan why you're hoarding merit and as above said, you've 24 smerits to spend which I think it's good if you spread to all of them, 1 user 1 smerit.  In our local, you didn't have the plan to distribute there? 

BTW, happy birthday, just take a break and give time to yourself.

[nakamura12]

It is a small number and you guys are right but it's all I have so that's why I will distribute what I have left. Actually, they can just participate anytime they want as long as the rank is within rhe required rank. I checked their post history and that's the time I will decide if I give or not. So far, there are few months old account with less post and the others are more on bounty reports. As what lovesmayfamilis said, I did encounter some forum users with good posts but I keep all smerits that I have for this celebration purpose. Honestly, I would like to give them merits but I decided to give lower rank a chance to earn merit. I don't get why it is unclear when the rules is you can only submit once to give others a chance to earn instead of sending to the same person.

Once again, 24 smerits is not making three ranks to rank up but a range which I will  accept or to give merit. In short, newbies, jr. members and member ranks have a chance to receive a merit from me if I think they deserve it.


Let me just say that this thread is a bit like or a bit the same as Report Unmerited Good post to merit sources but only newbies, jr. member and member ranks are eligible to join. Due to limited smerits, only giving 1 per user and those who already received can submit again next week for others to have a chance getting merit. Hope you guys get what I am trying to do. Anyway, thank you very much.

Mate. This is unachievable promise. Every newbie deserves to receive merit because at that stage or level let us assume that they are novice. So they ask questions. And if you really want to reward them with merit, you do it from the question. I can vividly remember my first two merits, it was from my question as a newbie.

So at the newbie level you can merit  a thread that the user try to explain something to encourage him in the forum not to give up on Bitcoin. And the newbie will be very happy. Therefore, if you are waiting for deserve newbie to merited I will say all deserve it and not all. What I mean, all the active, consistent ones that have spend 4-5 months in the forum deserve it.

You said per week. That is persistent reward in every week. Are you a merit source? Don't start a project that you can't complete.

I wish you all the best. Happy 1 year birthday.

This is a good encouragement. If you open this for next week, are you sure you will have the merit to keep it on ?

You clearly miss my point here buddy.  It's already friday in forum's time zone which means next week is coming and those who I already merited can submit an entry again. I didn't say that I will give merit every week because I am not a merit source. I am only planning to send all smerits I have until all are sent. Also, it's not that I am celebrating being a hero member for almost 1 year but you can say that too but for this time it's the day I was born. There's no project to start with.

If you are not satisfied with answer or my point then I think this will suffice.


THIS IS A MERIT GIVEAWAY (Limited by 24 smerits in total)
