Need advice on getting merits

[Idiedugha]

Hi guys, I want to ask some tips on getting some merits. I somehow feel jealous when I see other full members having tons of it even if they're just new to the forum. I know that there are some ways to earn it like being active in your local board, engaging in the gambling threads talking about particular sports, create an informational thread, or have some deep knowledge about bitcoin's technical like block size, hash rate, etc. And that's my concern, I am not good with any of those stuffs. I am not a sports enthusiasts nor good in bitcoin technical. Our local board is not that active also compared to others where I see some members' their main merit source.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for taking my time to r
ead my post. Cheers!  

Thanks for the information, I've always wondered how I could earn some merits as others. I think this is the best time to engage more in my local board.

Like some of the advice the legendary and Hiro members gave to you by improving in quality post on the time, it will really help you to achieve any amount of merits you want in the platform because, they merits people base on their quality Post in the platform which you can improve in quality post and get the same luck through your quality post. Don't let merits be the reason why you are part of this platform because it will not allow you to learn many things from crypto facilitators in the platform, and it can cause you to disobey the rules that governed the platform and it can lead you to the ban or red tag that will make your account useless in the platform.

 Do everything possible to be humble in the platform by following all the rules and regulations that governed the platform, and exercise patience with what you post in the platform for people to learn.

Some of those places you mentioned are where you drop your contributions, try as much as you can to flow with the topics, as in being in line with what's been said. You mustn't be a guru before you can be able to get the right post on sports and other board, we're all here to learn so you take it nice and slow with time you'd get it right, just keep making research on which ever topics or threads you find yourself.
To top it all, I'd advise you to discard that thinking of getting merit and keep doing things the way you have been doing if not you'd lose focus.
Quality post will get you what you want but if you keep making it number one priority (getting merit) that's where desperation comes in and you know how desperate people behave, so just keep making post that would draw attention, with time you'd get the merit without you knowing how or when it may arrive.

Their is no other ways of earning merit in this community except that you are engaged in the activities of the forum, so for some people to earn a higher merit than others is as result of their composition in writing is well understood and its very formative in comprehension, so people engaged into discussion with out looking having a basic knowledge of what the discussion is all about, so therefore I believe that merit earning is been determined by the quality of your post and your research about what is very innovative and also worthy for emulation.

Yeah, I guess you rightly stated it there with what I found in your post history. You truly aren't good at creating "informational threads". You've been in this forum since 2017. Sadly, you've just one created topic to your credit. From my observation, merit is easily awarded to created topics more than regular comments. This may also be going against you.

I hope OP returns to read all these suggestions made to them here as I've seen their last seen online was about a month ago – October 8.

I have read some topics that obviously look like the poster are begging for merit or using an indirect method to look for merit, be real and legit with yourself, you will be fine.

Similarly, it would be inappropriate for a member to only use indirect methods to gain merit. They bring such topics, which are of the cheap type, and their purpose is only getting merit and nothing else, spamming, or, as you said, begging. Like these, there are many examples of how he used to complain about other members, and he also opened the topic without any argument so that he could gain merit. They thought that they would be able to gain merit by acting inappropriately, but they are giving themselves a trap. So I mean, never do such discusting activity, which will cause humiliation for you later.

Here are some of the threads
- https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5412657.0

- https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5465195.0

In addition I know that some time in the past you could PM a legendary member and asked for your profile to be reviewed. If they review it and they like what they see do they give you merits.

These are the ways I know to receive merits here

Hmm, buddy, you did very good work. I really appreciate you giving them a very appropriate way to get merit from these two threads. Those who give you the result of real work (posts) instead of spamming, this is senior and their eligible createria; the quality of the post should be better, which can rank you up only to get merit. I think this is the best way to get merit or to make your rank upgradeable because, with this type of method, juniors will avoid spamming and will also get good results for their post quality.

There is no need to be jelouse about new members merits. Its always difficult sometimes for you as a beginner to know the difference between shitpost and quality post. Although it's always difficult in the beginning. But when you are grinded to this forum by understanding everything that is going on, you will definitely know how to grow.

Let me me use myself as a case study. When I started I thought just making post in each thread by commenting will earn merit but all to no avail. I even decived to quit. Thinking what I will post to grow. So started reading people's comment that reacieved merits, I discovered that they were interacting on a serious discussion. So I started study at night. I can use 6 house to read and understand what dey are doing otherwise you'll just be here making post with no merits.

And mean while don't always have it in mind that you must get merit in each we quality post. Just continue posting quality and you will receive merits when you don't expect.

I think you got all the things right, and I appreciate you. Well the thing is that do not chase merits in the forum as it does not make for the merits, yeah it will help to select you in the signature campaign and make some money and there is no problem with it but using the wrong routes and tactics to get more and more merits is wrong. this will lead you to get negative trust or maybe get banned If someone wants to get merit then do hard work some research and do a quality post so that forum members like it and will merit your post. Besides the merits, there are other important things in the forum that need to be gained like knowledge about Bitcoin as much as possible the trading techniques, and much more. Make this the reason to be part of this forum.

Yes, everything is determined by the quality of the post and some research done to respond to or create a thread. It's not easy to do, it requires research and explanation in the form of valid data. I myself am not even able to always achieve the reward I need. It requires persistence and learning about the topic that will be discussed in detail.

[Sandra_hakeem]

There's actually no special advice you're gonna have, other than putting in effort in making quality post; FAQS about what quality post are and how it could be made is usually explained on almost every merit giveaway threads or discussion threads too.. I believe everything lies in your mindset and perception of thinking; whatever policies that's been placed on everyone's meriting habits is all to one goal - which is not allowing malicious Alts and account farmers grow Thier accounts for sale... This as well was thought to be another route to reduce the incessant spamming/Ai postings in the forum ..... you're definitely not gonna be affected by it if you're a quality poster.

The best advice you will get is to engage actively and positively on the forum, and you will be rewarded with merit. Just have something real to give to the forum, and you might be lucky enough to earn a merit like the one you earned from your local board a few hours ago.

There is one statement I came across in this forum: "Don't chase merit; make quality posts and allow merit to chase you." Some local boards are also good at helping one another, especially when they see you contributing actively to your local board.
 
My advice: Look for that area where you can be productive and start making organic posts there; genuinely, don't try to outsmart anyone in the name of chasing merit, as that might land you into trouble.

This is a very simple and precise answer to give and the user has been a long time users of the forum and I think should be aware by now that the only way to earn merits are through writing quality post and letting the merits chase you.
Don't be bothered about when the merits will be come bjt just be focused on making quality post as the merits might even come months after you've written that post.

[Nwada001]

And mean while don't always have it in mind that you must get merit in each we quality post. Just continue posting quality and you will receive merits when you don't expect.

The moment one conceives in his mind that any post that they make must earn them merit, that's the moment they start failing. Even the most reputable members in the forum and the ones who also rank 1st to 10th don't earn merit in each of their posts.
 
One thing that I have come to realize is that, most times, the post that we make and the contribution that we have offered in the form of providing help, answers, and any other form of problem that we might have helped a member solve or the forum in general might not even earn that merit, which he was convinced in his mind that he was going to earn by making that post.

Sometimes the merit comes when we least expect it, and most times it comes as one expected it, but always trying to make a post just to earn merit is what usually leads many people to plagiarism and using other tools in order to make their post stand out, which also don't help but rather lands them into trouble.
 
The best way is just to do what you can and remove the mindset that earning merit is hard in the forum or having the feeling that newbies are not being given merit, as such a mindset can discourage someone from trying harder. Being original is one thing I have seen help a lot of us grow in this forum.

[idarasun]

At first I thought that this forum was not the same as experience in working in the real world..

"Don't chase merit; make quality posts and allow merit to chase you."

It turns out I was wrong, there are many sayings saying things like that.

[Sexylizzy2813]

It turns out I was wrong, there are many sayings saying things like that.

It seems hard as a starter but don't mind how other members have gotten far in getting much merit and their rank, they worked hard to get where they are todays, like @Orpichukwu rightly said, is true. When you make quality post merit would come knocking but ones your mind is clouded with getting merit in every post you make, trust me you're not getting any merit but you'll be left with a frustrating look and when that happens that's the end, you might even give up coming online to do anything because is not working.

Yes, now I understand more and more, so in essence the final goal is not what I think but what I do.
This means I have to love and enjoy this process to the point where what I think becomes reality.

Yes, forget about coming online to get merit, is something that comes without you knowing, I'll say it again. Make sure you put enough effort on whatever post you're making and your contributions too should be in line. To me ones you're going about business the right way things will definitely work out for you.
You know if merit are being gifted just like that, without doing anything to deserve it, nobody would be here or trying to learn, share important information and here won't be that serious as it is now. So I'd say keep doing the best you can, with time you'd get your first reward.

Hi guys, I want to ask some tips on getting some merits. [..]

Don't seek the merits; instead, let the merits seek you. If you care about the quality of your contributions in the forum and focus on enriching this vast space with your knowledge, posts, and purposeful topics, and if you try to become a helpful member to others, you will eventually achieve your goal. Concentrate on boards that align with your expertise and where you can shine and excel. Those members who have dozens of merits have indeed started with the Newbie rank and had no merits initially, but through their diligence and setting goals to enrich content, help the cryptocurrency community and beginners, and become outstanding and well-known contributors, they have now succeeded in reaching their goals. Yes, it takes time, effort, and experience from you, but with your determination, you will eventually succeed, and we may find you among merit source members one day. Nothing is impossible here among the many generous and experienced members.

Everyone must love and enjoy the process if they want something better, because there will be nothing new that we can get if we don't love and enjoy the process in any case. Moreover, every thing we think about needs to be realized through action so that it can give birth to the results we previously hoped for, because any result will not come by itself except by going through the process and continuing to act wisely for ourselves in several ways.

[Solokan]

I understand your complaint, and as an ordinary human being wanting to get benefits is a natural thing, but in my opinion focus on the quality of your posts because if the quality of your posts is good then the benefits will chase you, and in my you should be able to enjoy the process and should be able to enjoy the discussion . and in my opinion you have to have a goal to enter this forum, whether you want to increase your knowledge or just want to get merits.

op you don't give up keep working and keep fighting I'm sure if you fight then you will get merits. because in my opinion there will be no struggle in vain.and I also see people who get a lot of merits here because the quality of their posts is very good.

[Oneandpure]

Its have been human habit want to push their account higher level by receiving merit as many possibility, beside you need to make good qualities post you must active looking for board have merit source. I think in this board Beginners & Help have two topic as merit source and you can apply the best qualities of your post and hope get merit for them, be active looking the other account merit history and you can participant in their board post to get merit but first important thing you have higher post quality.

Usually each local board have merit source, you can check with your local board are there have topic for helping to receive merit? in my local board there are have topic with specially how to increase qualities post and get reviewed have good post or not for receiving merit. You need be active not passive if want reach to higher level account trough merit system.
