My LB do not have a merit source.

[acroman08]

Our LB(Pilipinas doesn’t any merit source either but we are still active in there for local discussion even though merit distribution is not that high compared to the traffic we are giving to the forum.

we have a merit source but our merit source is inactive, it was cabalism13(also, I am not entirely sure but apart from being a mod on our local board mr.big is also a merit source.) But as you know, after the scandal about the bitcointalk charity he stopped being active in the forum. crwth is trying to become a merit source for Pilipinas local board but as far as I know, theymos has not made him into a merit source.

This got me thinking, if you continue to merit their posts on the regular basis, maybe theymos might conclude that they don't need more merit and not approve their member's merit source applications?

No, it will not affect, but on the contrary, it will increase the possibility that a new source will be chosen or the balance of the current one will be increased. Updating source members takes place every several years, and the last two times the number of sources in my local board increased to 3, even though most members have enough Merits.

It's obvious people cant read. What do you think is hidden here. I have gone through the individual links I see on the forum. And read all pinned topics. I am not new to technology. I know how to navigate a platform even if I just new it. This is the 21st century there is nothing hidden in search engines. I could know much about the forum if I just asked google to tell me what I need to know.

Indeed, this is the 21st century, and if you are exposed to technological advancement, you will be able to navigate through any forum or new environment you come across as long as you can read and understand English and other languages.

Talking about merit awarding and merit sources, it is not only merit sources that give out merit; everyone that has available merits can give out merit to any post they find word of receiving merits.Most local boards do have merit sources, but some local boards are yet to have one. It is not too bad because there are a lot of merit sources in the general board.

But as a beginner, you should focus on knowing how the merit system works and how to make yourself useful to the forum before focusing on such discussions.

I have been around Bitcoin and cryptocurrency for years. I just recently came new to the forum by my friend. Trying to study and understand how things worked here. So I became aware that positive comments and contribution gets you merited and these merits are mostly given to you by merit sources. I don't know if am wrong, correct me. However, I stalked so e merit source within this few hours and saw that most of them have their different local boards but my country do not have. I am Nigerian and I am curious to ask this question. Why dont we have merit source in our local board.

I felt this topic should be shared here, since it has to do with things regarding the progress of the forum.

These things has been discussed many times in different posts made by beginners but there should be the posts through which we can see the different review of the users about different coins. There are many threads you can see related to Cryptocurrency here and you can engage with these talks if you have some problem and if you have some other issues regarding the coin you are interested and you want to invest in. All the things can be explained in a better way by the users who have much knowledge about the questions you asked.

And the merit can be earn by helping each other in a way like giving some users answer that he got fully satisfied and many other things are involved in this which can be studied time to time.

Technology has really made everything easier and you could have known much about the forum before now to ask such questions on your first post in the forum. If you are just registering new in the forum, it’s believable from your profile but it also looks like you have been a visitor in the forum before registering and saw many activities here before making your first post. You are not a computer machine and no one will believe that you’ve gone through this forum and know much about your local board after just recently registering in the forum.

And as a newbie in this forum they need some attention not like this but attention of seeking help by the older forums members.  But what you've wrote above is different which is you are looking for merit source in your local which is pretty sure that many user her win forum will  have a guts that you are not a real newbie sorry but no offend OP that's the truth. Anyways you can still earn merits in global boards if you will help yourself to do such a goo and helpful topics.

Probably the best comment i have heard. And thanks to those who understands all i have shared. I do not feel bad, even if most of the response i got where full of critics and accusation. However, i shared my taughts and insights on other boards and i got a merit. Now i understand how it all works. My previous knowledge was that merit are given by only merit sources, this is the reason why i asked about our local board meeit sources. Now i know it could be anyone, and am not exceptional, i could merit anyone with my smerit. Feels good seing that 1 merit on my profile.
