Icopress ' Merit Source Application 🚩

[Mr.suevie]

Well certainly for me and most members here, we all know you deserve to be granted the merit source job because its certainly a job and the field is currently lacking employees I know this because of some quote from the famous @skeptical chemist, when he said no one should thank him for giving them merit and he is just fulfilling his duty as a merit source and each merited post by him deserve it. Well its going to a waiting game from here as most members have certainly cleared that its been long theymos actually assigned a new merit source but I feel its time because the forum is lacking merit source that tend to attend  to these merit worthy posts.

Icopress is just the right man for the job

I support your application as a merit source, Honestly being a merit source is another task for you but I see that you have determination, knowledge and generosity, so for me you are qualified for what you've been applying for.  But let's wait for theymos if he gonna accept your application as we all know that there are many applicants before but still didn't make them a merit source.

[Jessie2121]

Wow...
I only saw you @Icopress as a campaign manager but I never thought you'd be applying for a spot as a merit source, thought most members with higher ranks are merit source, still much to learn here though but from the way you handle your campaigns I think you'd do more better if given the opportunity to be a merit source... What I'm I saying, IMO the opportunity have been given is just a matter of time to approve it and making it official.

[fillippone]

I fully support this application.
Icopress would be an excellent Merit Source.

I'm posting this because it's impossible to become a merit source without an app.

Even though it is (very) rare, that's tehnically not correct as few members got merit source status 2 years ago when theymos did merit "readjustement" without applying to be a merit source.

Wasn't that 4 years ago?  I recall it being 2019 when Theymos told me I was now a merit source and to go forth and prosper. 

Last merit source rebalancing was 2 years ago: July 2021.

I didn't know you weren't a merit source. I guess since you earn merits at almost 4 times the activity, I've seen you give out quite a few merits.

Anyway, I believe that icopress' contribution is so remarkably positive to the forum as to be appointed merit source. The only thing I can think of to prevent it from happening is that maybe theymos does not want to appoint any new merit sources for now.

[LoyceV]

From my short experience as a campaign manager, I know checking posts is a very good opportunity to also spread Merit since you have to read the posts anyway. And since you're managing a lot of campaigns, that would make you a good candidate to contribute to the Merit system.

[cygan]

finally you did it!
for me you are one of the most dedicated forum users i appreciate here very much. i also had the chance to work with you - and it was an honor for me.
the discussions with you are always factual and professional.
i also hope and think that we will get another 'merit source' with you

[rachael9385]

I support you from my hart, you have been a good reputative user on this forum but I never knew your weren't a merit source untill yet, I seriously believe that @theymos will take you as a new merit source on the forum, @icopress you have done your best on the forum and I know that there are more you will do, and been a merit source is the most expensive reward on the forum, since a lot of us have agreed on this I don't think @theymos will give it a second thought about this but we hope to hear a positive response from him.

This is very correct. Although I haven't managed any campaign but I believe that campaign managers are the people in good position to know the post quality of users, especially the ones in the campaigns under their management.

I really thought Icopress was a merit source. But then there is no doubt he wil be a good merit source if given the opportunity by theymos.

[hugeblack]

AFAIK, Merit sources are selected according to the best member for a particular board, you almost speak Russian and there are enough sources for that local board so adjusting the 10 quote posts to be in a specific board or 2-3 boards may support your application.

In any case, if there is any modification to the merit sources, I hope you will be selected.

I support Icopress ' Merit Source Application.

[bullrun2024bro]

I actually thought you're a merit source already. Anyway, I fully support this application.

You are one of the most active users of the forum and through your job as campaign manager you know what is needed for making good posts. If anyone can judge whether a post is merit-worthy, it's you!

Therefore, I really hope that @theymos will consider your application anytime soon and that you will become a merit source. I am sure it will happen sooner or later!

Keep it up, buddy! 

[icopress]

Thank you all for the kind words... I actually spoke to Theymos about this recently. The reason I posted this appendix is that when Theymos assigns new merit sources, he searches the meta section for relevant topics and assigns new m'sources based on the search results. ^{[I do hope that he will add new sources of merit soon]}.

[lovesmayfamilis]

It always seemed to me that to be a source of merit meant to accomplish a great feat, in the right sense of the word . Reading a huge amount of information and regularly looking for the most interesting posts is a huge dedication to the forum. I support your initiative, in addition to being a manager of subscription companies, to take on additional responsibility; it is really worthy of respect. To see what is happening in your country and, at the same time, to be so active
occupation for strong people.

[Gladitorcomeback]

I support your application and i hope we will see you as a Merit source very soon. You spent lot of times here and contributes well. You know which post deserve merit which is not easy task. First time i checked your BPIP profile and interesting to see that despite of so many weekly Merit reward you still not included in Merit source. happy to see so many positive response from Respected members who already support your application and i hope Theymos will consider your application also. best luck

[BenCodie]

I support this application.

As a campaign manager, icopress does a fantastic job in making sure advertisers get good value while participants are fairly paid. As a community member, I find it often that when I hit the "+Merit" button, icopress has done the same thing with high quality posts. I trust icopress to appropriately and responsibly use the power of being a Merit source to help reward users who are contributing impeccable quality content to the forum. Based on support and your profile icopress, I am sure it's a matter of when and not if. Good luck!

[GazetaBitcoin]

I totally support icopress' application for becoming a merit source. He is a very good forum contributor, known for organizing BitcoinTalk Community Awards contest since 2020. At same time, he is also one of the oldest campaign managers of the forum and he manages these campaigns with a strong hand. So far I did not hear about any complaints about him regarding his managerial skills, therefore he must be doing a great job.

And, since being a campaign manager means also to know and follow forum rules very well; and also to properly seek and appreciate quality posts -- these are a very strong point for him for being accepted as merit source. Other than that, as he already mentioned in OP, he already sent 2500 merits to other users. Furthermore, according to bpip, he is the 34th most merited user (and, at same time, he is on 26th place on the ladder of users with most earned merits) and 68th most trusted. Such stats should tell a lot about very very good contributions, taking also into consideration that he reached such stats out of more than 3.5M users of the forum!

Good luck, padawan! May your application be accepted!

[348Judah]

Definitely it's true,  that you are deserving to be a merit source, when we are to consider all that you have done and contributed to the forum, there's a lot to talk about which has led to the required quality potentials a merit source could have, you've brought in alot of opportunities to the forum starting from the initiative of the bitcointalk community award, signature campaign management, activeness on the forum with numerous contributions to the forum, i believe you could be a good candidate to deliver upto expectation to be a merit source if granted the opportunity to serve in this capacity, i wish you best of luck with your application.

[Coyster]

You had everyone thinking you are a merit source before now, including myself, anyway, it is better late than never. I fully support your application and i am pretty sure that most of the users in the forum will, you are a good user and your contributions are pretty obvious for all to see. Well, in the end it is up to Theymos to decide, but i think whenever he decides to add new merit sources, you'd be one of the stronger contenders to get the position, so goodluck.

[notblox1]

Icopress has my full support for new spot of merit source.
He was always helpful, trying to assist everyone whenever he could, and I think he would be great addition in team merit.
His contribution to forum was great so far and I remember him from BitcoinTalk Community Awards and Gambling board.
I had great experience with him as campaign manager and I would always recommend him to everyone.

[albon]

I strongly support Icopress as he is an active member, an expert contributor to the forum, and a well-known campaign manager. This Ukrainian guy is really distinguished and one of the most trusted 100 members in the forum and one of the most merited members. His stats on Bpip.org are really impressive, I wish him all the best and luck, and I hope that his interesting Merit source application will be accepted by theymos, because this old member really deserves it, and he fulfills all the conditions.
