I know this thread is not that called for but I don't know if there is any restrictions sets on the gambling board because from my view and understanding I noticed other board are free from meriting posts that are quality enough I have also gone through the gambling sections there are quality post I do finds out but I can't barely merits them because I am not a merits source neither do I have merits to spray like those who are with enough merits to send across.
Please is there anything I am yet to understand about the gambling section whereas other sections are circulating merits enough, even our Nigerian local board merits source needs to increased his allocation if not for someone who has volunteered to be sending across the locals. Though have promised myself not to raised any topic that talks about merits maybe it seems I will have to apply as one who knows if I will accepted, and the issues here is that theymos isnt giving us enough attention that is needed. I know he is a very busy person yes I don't need to bug him because there is a lot to face on but at least he should recognized us by additionally adding one merits source to us we the Nigeria local board and the child board we the local poster will forever be grateful for that.

The gambling board is not restricted by merit; a few people still earn merit from it, but it's not common to earn merit from it. This is because it's hard to find a merit-worthy post in it as they are almost topic-repeated from time to time, and a lot of signature posters are trying to meet up with their weekly post quota, flooding the gambling board, so I don't think it's healthy to spend time there to earn a merit-worthy post.

Not only gambling board but also trading discussion. Most merits source do not like boards that deals with some risks. That was what I thought about it in the past. Because gambling and trading are both risky. Even for the ones that are merit sources, probably they might think why giving merit to some posts that deals with something risky. I just do not know why gambling and trading discussion boards are like that.
Although if you take a look at some posts that are of higher qualities on both boards, they are merited. But such posts of high quality and such quality posts are not just many on gambling board.
But as for me, I do not care. I post more on these boards but I am still able to get some merits, but mostly not from the gambling board. If you think you want to help, you can apply for merit source because of gambling board. It is likely that theymos might make you a merit source when theymos is choosing new merit sources.

First thing first no board Is actually restricted from receiving merits, the reason why merit is less or not giving at all to that board is because it is where the forum most spam posts are posted due to some campaign rules. That doesn’t mean you can’t merit those posts. Just that some merit source are not even into gambling related stuffs and find it’s hard to fish out quality post and merit. The Sceptical Chymist was actually accepting reviews from that board before but stopped because he isn’t into gambling stuffs and to fish out quality post from there was an issue.
The gambling is not even the only board getting merits source attentions even altcoin boards also suffer from this lack of merit and I can blame the merits source much because they lack the knowledge of that particular board and also spammers exploit those boards too.

You think I will be accepted just like that 😂 After series of application pending to become merits source? Though I can't limit myself but I know there may be other members who might applied for this position so even though theymos must give it should those who had already applied before me except he has his own ways of accepting approving and pointing new merits source. I don't mind if he makes me merits source then I will look towards local and gambling board.

Theymos knows where those merit sources are posting before choosing them. So you can not blame the merit sources. Do not forget that this is a bitcoin forum. People like CryptopreneurBrainboss applied for merit source for altcoin board in the past and theymos made him a merit source. Do not think theymos will focus on altcoin boards like the bitcoin boards, but those that are interested can still apply for merit source and indicate how they want to also focus on altcoin boards so that theymos can look into it. You think I will be accepted just like that After series of application pending to become merits source?
It is worth trying. A time is coming that theymos will choose new merit sources to add while some that are not active will be removed.

In a meantime, you can report merit worthy posts to this threadThe Gambling board just like most altcoin boards and discussion boards are on ignore by most merit sources, so the best thing to do is to grant spendable merits to merit source applicants that are active in such boards. Try and apply to be a merit source. Theymos does not grand merit source powers every time someone new applies, but once in a while he accepts lots of merit source applications at ago.

While its true that gambling board has a big amount of low quality posts due signature campaign requirements, the main reason why there's lack of merit is due fact that not enough merit sources are active there, which is something I hope to be chanmged next time when theymos deided to readjust the merit. Which means some people can apply for merit source for gambling related posts. I will like to see some people make such an application.
There is at least one merit source application aimed at gambling board that I know of.

Well if you don't mind then why don't you drop your application to be in the waiting list since you already said he might give or make those that first applied merit source before meeting up new ones and if you wait around then the line just keeps getting longer ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) . I would like to see that the gambling board has some merit source focus there although their are some few thread that are merited by others users but the alarming rate of unmerited posts is far beyond.

There's board that is affected even most of the local board are lacking merits if you look at the altcoin bounty section and any other boards that mostly records a higher spamming volume you would noticed that those board doesn't usually received enough merits from source. There main concern and focused is on bitcoin, technical or wallet related issues but talking of that section I doubt if any of those merits source will spare their merits to send across that board. Like few people above suggested you can apply for one there is nothing wrong if you do who knows how things works out I guess you might accepted as one.

The gambling board doesn’t get enough merits because of the amount of unchecked spamming that goes on in that section. Also merit sources do not frequent gambling boards, they usually visit certain boards like Beginners & Help, Bitcoin discussion and Meta. We definitely need a merit source in the gambling section.There is already an application that is yet to be approved by Theymos; cryptofrka's Merit Source application - let's improve the gambling boards

Gambling discussion boards are not restricted from getting merited.
The thing is that most of the people in there are either people who are already dried up from their merits, or newbies who can't give merits themselves. It's also worth noting that most posts on the gambling discussion board suck ass so merit-sources and people who are generally more generous when gifting merits avoid these boards cause they have this heuristic that it's not worth checking the posts/comments in there anyway cause they will suck. All of these contribute towards the lack of merits in that particular board, which is really sad but at the end of the day it forces people to really go out there and be more contributing and productive to the forum if they want their stuff to get merited, as well as have them make more constructive posts that are thought-provoking and not just to meet signature campaign quotas, so I guess it's all good still.

So far I'm having trouble finding merit data especially about how much merit was distributed on the gambling board in the past year. I tried getting it from DdmrDdmr's merit dashboard - but I still failed, or maybe missed something. In the past - I got some merit on the gambling boards, but I don't know if many posters got them too over the last year. IMO - many of users might also post something useful on the gambling boards - it's just that those posts are more likely to get drowned out quicker by a lot of other spam.

Most merit sources don't like to merit the posts on gambling board, there are only a few merit sources who still merit the posts of the gambling board. I know only one such merit source who send merits to those who make good posts at gambling board.
A very nice member and a merit source The Sceptical Chymist used to send merits to gambling board posts in past but now he has also stopped sending merits to the posts of the gambling board.
I think gambling board gets so many posts on daily basis and that's why it would be pretty hard for the merit sources to send that many merits on a board like that. There are some quality posts that might get some merits but not all posts.
I think a better solution for that board is to have some merit sources who may send merits to the members of that board. But, so far I don't think that anyone is merit source of gambling board or its child boards.

I try to send merits to posts there but it's very difficult to find quality posts. I find it hard to even read some of the messages. It's the most active section of the forum, but it's so scarce in terms of merit. Because of spammers, good messages are lost in the shuffle. I think it's important to have an active gambling section for the sake of forum and I would suppport any idea to increase the quality and the merit circulation there.

Most merits source do not like boards that deals with some risks.
I can tell you that as a merit source who offers to review members' posts for them, I've become quite suspicious of some of the posts in the gambling section, e.g., there might be a group of alt accounts posting nearly the same thing and all PMing me around the same time requesting a post history review. That's why I made this amendment to my offer: First I'd like to say that when I get requests for reviews, I'm always on the lookout for shenanigans. The rule of this forum since I've been a member is that if something can be abused in order to milk it for all it's worth, there's going to be a bunch of idiot shitposters trying to do it. Therefore when I started my offer to the community I expected people to get over on me in as many ways as can be imagined.
Over the last few months I've noticed that I'm getting requests from members who:
1. Post in a very similar style (which I'm not going to describe here, lest it cause those members and/or their alts to change their habits in order to drop off my radar). 2. Post primarily in the gambling section. 3. Are in gambling-related sig campaigns, sometimes the same one. 4. Sometimes have registration dates close enough that they arouse my suspicions.
I actually went back though my merit history and made a table of some of the above info and used it to judge whether there was something to my suspicions or if they were just me being paranoid. I came to conclude that there's something fishy going on and therefore I am no longer going to give any merits for posts in the gambling section, since it seems like that's where I might be getting taken advantage of.
The second reason for my decision is that I'm not a gambler and have a hard time judging the value or even the veracity of some posts about gambling. I can usually tell if someone has put in a decent amount of thought and effort into a post, and I've always given great weight to that when deciding to give out merits, but I think I've been too generous when it comes to gambling posts. This is going to apply to requests that arrived anywhere in my waiting list, i.e., retroactively.
But that's just me. I assume there aren't a lot of merits circulating there due to the numerous posts that are mediocre at best and perhaps the fact that not a whole lot of members who post in the gambling section are handing out merits themselves. Eh.

Which means some people can apply for merit source for gambling related posts. I will like to see some people make such an application.
Some people have been claiming that gambling boards are full of spammers. Maybe that’s why lots of posts on gambling boards are not really merited, only a few posts receive merit on gambling boards. I think it will be better if someone tries submitting merit source application for gambling board, maybe the person’s application is going to be considered, but I know so many people will be against it due to the high level of low quality posts that people do make on gambling boards, and I am sure the merit sources that we have currently are not interested in meriting posts on gambling boards, but to be honest, there are some posts on gambling boards that are worth merit but are not receiving merit.

Well, some months ago, I almost asked the same question out of curiosity and was surprised at the quality of the post that did not receive merit on the gambling board.
But on a second thought, I have received merit once or twice on the gambling board, and that confirmed to me that merit is not restricted on the gambling board.
But what happened is that, just as merit doesn't usually flow so often on the off-topic board, on the politics and society board, speculation board, and many other boards, that's how merit is not usually distributed so often on the gambling board.
My guess is that most merit sources are not gamblers, so without visiting the gambling threads so often, they will not drop merit on posts unless they visit the board, which they don't.

perhaps the fact that not a whole lot of members who post in the gambling section are handing out merits themselves. Eh.
You make a good point. Members who are active in the gambling boards (whom I suppose are gamblers or sport fans) do not give a lot of merits to posts in that section. From my newbie days, I didn’t see older members hand merits to gambling posts, and I think that also rubbed off on me. As you spend more time on the forum, you learn people have standards for what they consider quality post. How does one measure post quality in a football thread. Do I give merits to members who say nice things about my football club? And wouldn’t that be bias? It’s a dilemma, especially since there is no template for these things.

This a good one you noticed. I have been in gambling section just a few times since I registered here and i found out that merits are not flowing in gambling section as it goes around some other boards. But not everything is meant for questioning so I pretended I didn't notice. In all my time in that board I have seen quality posters but yet didn't receive merits for such. though it's assumed that most of those in that section just repeat words everytime so it's hard to know good post for merit source but for me I know one when I see it. if there was merit in gambling section people like Oshosondy would have been one of the highest merit earners there. because I have seen that guy appear first in like 70% of posts in gambling section and I admire his posting styles. perhaps the fact that not a whole lot of members who post in the gambling section are handing out merits themselves. Eh. This is a very good fact about gambling section. they (we) complain for merits not circulating but yet they can't merit themselves there, so how then will someone who doesn't visit there regularly merit the post when people inside are not helping themselves.
