Aren't we on a forum just to discuss Bitcoin?
Yeah, sure.
It doesn't seem entirely sincere. The forum is designed for simple communication; however, we want every word to have a price.
Or else, if users do not rate posts, does that mean no one reads anything?
But honestly, there's also one truth that should not be ignored, which is that in terms of participating in campaigns, some managers do require some maximum number of earned merit in the last 120 days; as such, it's also earned merit that helps some members to be able to get selected in those campaigns.
Sometimes you see a user whose merits come only from the source of merit. It turns out that it is only good for one person.
I think that some people don't usually appear on time to a thread; before they do, their comments might end up on page 5 (up) and it might be difficult to receive merit because some members that give merit only visit pages 1 and 2 because they believe that all good opinions are just on the first and second pages, while there could be other quality comments on page 5 too. Another thing I noticed too is that in terms of merit distribution, some are sentimental and do so out of favoritism. For example, I have seen where the first comment was more of a quality than the second comment, but the second comment got the merit.
