How do I earn merit?

[Vaculin]

Hello, new bitcointalk user, been around on this site for around a year or so, just never decided to create an account. I’ve seen people with tons of merit! But yet I have not a single clue on how to gain any, whilst people have thousands! Pretty much a newbie when it comes to posting . But any help works, thank y’all!

Other people have tons of merits because they worked for it as merits do not earned instantly but will only be given to those who deserve to be given. But for newbies like you, just do your best so you can can understand the market well by taking most of your time studying and even perform researches if needed. The market and the forum itself  will surely be tough and hard to understand in the beginning, but with due diligence to learn and most importantly, enjoy what you are doing, you will easily absorb the important insights and ideas that the forum has to offer.

Have patience while continuously learning the forum. Getting merits will be easier for you in the later part if you become knowledgeable in most of the topics that will be discussed in the forum.

As a newbie, I should say that one should not focus on earning merits in the first place. What you should do more is to gain unlimited ideas while exploring the forum so you can be knowledgeable just like those people who consistently gain merits because of their wide knowledge in different topics. If your goal is to earn tons of merits just like them, then be like them. Learn a lot and experience a lot so you can have something valuable to share in the forum that will make other members to benefit from your varied posts.

Earning merits is not the goal why we engage in the forum, but it's to establish our concrete knowledge and develop our skills through wide opportunities that this forum may provide for us.

Op if you have known forum for a year now or being around the forum for a year i doubt if you will still be a newbie according to your profile, you shouldn't be more curious to know how merits is gotten rather you should be more serious about developing your knowledge of cryptocurrency more since  it will help you to share some useful information and ideas that will be beneficial to the community and members here and at the end you will be appreciated with with that which you seek now.

Focus more on building knowledge which will be helpful to you now and in future, read threads of other members here here instead of creating threads that has been discussed several times here, ask relevant questions on the things you do not understand so that other members can respond to you and providings or solutions that will help to guide you. You can also give yourself time to make research and read cryptocurrency related materials I believe it will help you to grow in knowledge and in return merits will come when you have applied to work all you have learnt, every member you see here having tons of merits didn't get there overnight they were patient and they worked to receive it so you to should read, learn and get ready to make quality posts if you desire to have tons of merit like them.

You already answered your own question OP on how to earn or get merited and that is by posting here in the forum. The question you should be asking right now is how to create a good or high quality posts is because it is what many forum member prefer to send their smerits rather than sending it to a spam, low quality, off-topic or useless posts that doesn't contribute anything to the forum. In order to be able to do that is to become knowledgeable first until you can create your own good posts. To be honest, many forum members have ask the same question as you have many times and answered many times.

I’m not aware of what the rules are, like I said, I’m new. I didn’t know that creating a bunch of threads could get me banned? (if that’s what you were trying to tell me) I am just trying to have a few conversations going in stuff that I’m interested in, which is why I’ve created multiple threads. I’m sure when you first joined this site, you were curious on how stuff works, just as I am, but I’ll be sure to check out the rules, guess that’s what I should’ve done in the first place. And just so you know, I’m not just here for Merit, I don’t even know what its for, I was just trying to gain knowledge on how people have so much and how it works/how to gain it.

That is why you the first thing to do after joining any forum you should go through the forum rules before you start engaging in the forum.
For simplicity, the forum has already pined all the necessary information you will need as a beginner or a new person in the forum or community; therefore, make sure you check and read all pin threads in any section you visit in this forum, so that you can get clue of what exactly the section is all about.

Once again, welcome to this wonderful and amazing forum, I believe the response you have gotten is enough and has explained everything you need to know.

Merit is a reward for you quality contributions you give in this forum, if you are active, and you have been given quality contributions the forum, you will earn merits from different users.

Merit will come to you after you start to focus on making posts that are useful for users on this forum and you will start to focus on making good posts when you start to calm your mind about how to get Merit quickly. It is better for you to enjoy your learning process in extracting insights and sharing any insights you have gained with users who need these insights in this forum. Because that's how discussions work. Namely in helping solve problems and providing each other with solutions and insights.

And actually, several tips to make it easier to get Merit have been shared a lot on this forum, especially in the Beginner and Help sections. Even MS has created a thread about these tips. Or you can search for users who have a lot of Merits, even above 10k Merits. And try to pay attention to how they make posts. And look at the topics they create. Study it and I'm sure it will work.

Well the main reason why I’d like to earn merit is because I have to wait 360 seconds just to reply + post a topic. Kind of annoying, and the only way to fix that from what I’ve read is to earn more merit.

One merit will be enough for you to get rid of this headache. You need at least 30 activity for it. If you do quality post, I hope you will get one merit soon. BTW why you need to post with under six minutes. Honestly I need more than 5 minutes to write a short one paragraph reply.

If you can sign PGP encryption then try to sign here and you will get 1 merit.

Thank you for replying to this though, gives me a bit more understanding and one more question, to search up a question, do I have to click on the topic that’s for the question that I am looking for? Or am I able to just search it up?

op Think of the future as you create advanced posts with your own knowledge. Because you will definitely earn merit if you post your high quality posts and quality and informative posts. Because the more knowledgeable you are, the more progress you can make. Knowledge helps people to rise to the top so you quickly get busy acquiring knowledge and manifesting it.
