I need honest advise concerning this.

 I've been advised that as a newbie i shouldn't rush but to learn from old forum members and grow. But then, I've seen that for one to grow over here you need to get merited and on a regular basis, well i believe at this point i should've been able to acquire some merits, despite the fact that I'm still a Newbie but then i don't see the Merits coming, even after some post i felt could fetch the Merits. It makes me wonder if my posts are not Merit worthy or Quality enough.

 Though it almost got me díscouraged, however instead of being discouraged, I'm open to learning ways or how to get the Merits and grow on here, my questions are what I'm i doing wrongly? How can i improve it and also where is the best board to write on if i need these Merits coming?

A simple way to understand how you can earn merit is, taking a good look at posts that got merited, what kind of information did the person pass that made him or her get merits. Its that simple if you understand the quality of information that made people merit, then you will start learning towards such quality post so you too can get merit.

But sometimes it's not all about merit, you should crack your brain and see what you can really do, or instead of discussion regularly issues like your previous post you can just focus on learning how Bitcoin works and after learning once a topic is raised concerning that you will be able to speak sense into the conversation, hence if merit worth you will get one at least.

I'm also a newbie like you but luckily I'm ranked up in merit but it doesn't mean I know anything but this is just a simple way I found my way out without too much questions, I believe it could also work for you.

You can also check the topics created by people that are getting merit and also be checking what they are posting. Continue to learn from them and you will understand what are necessary to earn merit. Be reading from the good posters than posting for now. To earn merit on this forum is not hard at all, but many people just do not understand it until they understand what they do not know that is causing the lack of merit. Post useful information, read people's post and quote them like you are having a conversation with someone.

Hello mate Good day,
I came across on your account and take a look and I found out that most of your post came from off topics, economics and gambling which pretty sure that there are only few merits distributed on that boards. Anyways you can try to visit other boards and try to  see if there are a lot of distribution. Actually you are not the one who actually experience on that first merit is hard as We thought  but once we got one then we got motivated and improve our  techniques and style of posting.

Yeah true that you need merit to rankup, and there's no magical way to earn it. Merit given base on one choice, so there are some high quality post out there that still endup having no merit , all that really matters is how Impacting or contributing your post is to the individual that may Found your post  interesting or helpful (they may consider meriting you).

One thing am also aware of more you are in eager to earn merit, reduces the chances of you earning it because when one is eager to earn merit may lead to them posting low quality post. Sometime some  high quality post may not earn you merit instantly but as time goes on someone may stumbled upon that same post and found interesting and merit it. So don't be discouraged just focus on what the forum offers which is impacting good knowledge concerning this space.

I believe that the best thing you can do now is having patience, i too am a newbie here with no merits but i would also love to give my opinion,my best advice to you is to be patient, keep learning and reading more about the forum to understand better or you can go to other boards and try them out,i also believe you have done nothing wrong
Just like i am hoping to have merits,my only option is having patience and getting to know more and understanding how it works

Your posts and their quality decide you will receive merit or don't receive merit.

If you didn't receive merit so far, your post quality so far is not good enough. Improve your posts and quality, you will receive merit.

With newbies, they don't need to post too much. Reading and learning will be more helpful for newbies.

Merit & new rank requirements
Welcome message (Merit, which is gained by making good posts.)

Regular basis?
You don't have to post regularly and don't need to receive merit regularly.

The best suggestion for newbies is to take time out of their busy schedules to study a lot about this forum before expecting anything from some of the users. Because your leaning and quality postings will determine the merit you can get in each of your posts, and because every rookie understands that merit is the best path to growing here, instead of viewing some of the hold threads, read them so that you can grasp how they appear before they award them the merit.

Whatever you do, never get disheartened about this forum if you truly want to be like the other members here, because that is what occurs to many individuals. Many people have been introduced to this site, but their impatience has led them back to where they started. Staying active and persistent in this forum can help you avoid discouragement and earn merit for every of your posts.

Chasing merit is not one of the best way of getting them. If you which to get merits quickly then you must make quality post that is helpful to someone. I remember when I came to forum, at first I felt bad because it's just obvious that I wasn't helpful to the forum, but when I began to learn and create informative and helpful contents, the merits started coming in. The best advise I can give to you now is to forget about merit and focus on learning. You can even track some quality posters and learn from their inspiring contents to build your knowledge, and when you give out your knowledge the merits will definitely come.

How can i improve it and also where is the best board to write on if i need these Merits coming?

Change your posting habits.  I  had a glance on your history and, to be frankly, was not impressed. Politics, Economics, Off-topics are not the boards welcomed by merits. Learn some technical stuff which  would intrigue  users for a while.  As the song goes, "all learners travel so hard", and it takes time, but, it  will be more than pay for itself.

For you to grow is different from for your account to grow.

Which one are you here for? To grow your crypto knowledge or to grow your account?

Because many newbies are too focused on growing their accounts by earning merits, they fixed their mind in this and it makes them failed miserably.

That's because they are too concern about what doesn't matter, merit isn't something you can rush out, you need to be active and learn then engage in discussions to be merited.

But isn't gaining knowledge about crypto should be the first priority of every new crypto investors? You won't get anywhere chasing merits, spend time to learn first.

First of all dont aim for merits at the start of course youll be named as merit earner or something. Dont try hard just be natural. Many newbies thought that posting a long post or a huge wall could give them merits. Maybe it is but its case to case basis since most users have their long post with sense but if youll just joined with an empty knowledge and just going to post for merits then nothing will work out. Make sure to build content or topics that are worth noticing if no idea just read some references.

[lovesmayfamilis]

I can’t say that your posts are bad; you are on the right track. I see that you are ready for discussions and try to answer as fully as possible. You can also show a list of your posts to the source of merit; somewhere here in the newbie's topic, there is this topic. Or in the Nigerian section, as far as I have heard, your compatriots are successfully published there.
The only thing I can advise is not to lose heart. You are waiting for your first merit. This happens to probably every newbie. But after that, you just need to forget about merit. Just by communicating and reading, you will certainly be read by others, which will bring you a lot of merit.

Don't rush like trying to do short cuts on learning important, but rather be aggressive to learn a new information everyday which can help you to last long and compete with people who's earning some good fortune from the opportunities they can see here.  But actually you don't need a merit on regular basis since anyone can get earn if you are skilled enough to do some task. Only those people aim to join in a campaign want to get that merit since they want to rank up so that they can get more higher pay rates.

If you aim to get merits then try to post something valuable that can help other people to understand what are been discussed in the thread. Also just stay relevant and consistent since you can naturally earn those merits .

Receiving merit is not from your own end to judge whether a post you made is quality or not, it is in the best of interest of those coming across the post and how they got convinced that your post carries a lot of thoughts and its deserving to be merited, if they have smerit, they will give you and this is applicable to all members and the merit sources as well, you don't have to write a full page before receiving a merit, a single line or half can generate you merits as long as it contains the accurate quality standard of post being on point.   

my questions are what I'm i doing wrongly?

Nothing, but you're missing the quality standard of what makes others to receive merits.

How can i improve it and also where is the best board to write on if i need these Merits coming?

Maybe you will also need to answer the need to why you insisted on receiving this merit.

Disregarding the 2 posts that have been deleted from your posting history, I don’t really see anything wrong with the post content you’re creating, although I’m not familiar with the meriting ins and outs in some of the boards you post on (i.e. Economics, Gambling, Politics & Society for example). Posts in Off-topic are not likely to be merited (not sure if you posted there by choice, or the thread was moved over there at some point).

If it’s any use, I too around a month and a half to receive my first merit on the forum, which is the current age of your account. So there’s that …

Growth takes time and patience. Everyone has their own set of preferences and expectations. It's a learning process, and you'll get better with time.

What you can do is engage in meaningful discussions, share your thoughts, and contribute positively. Identify the boards where your expertise or interests align. Contributing to boards where you can provide valuable insights increases your chances of getting noticed and receiving merits. Merits often come from participating in meaningful discussions. Share your opinions, ask thoughtful questions, and provide well-reasoned answers.

This is all I can say; Rome wasn't built in a day. Patience is key, focus on consistent, quality contributions, and over time, you'll likely see the recognition you deserve. It's not just about the merits; it's about the journey of learning and contributing. Stay positive and keep improving.

[Princess Leah]

Maybe you will also need to answer the need to why you insisted on receiving this merit.

First off, I'll like to say thanks for your honest reply, I've observed the replies from everyone on this thread and I've taken note of my errors and would work on them, cause I believe that's one of the purpose of joining this great Bitcoin forum, which is to learn and impact knowledge in anyway I can.

 However, your question of why i insisted on getting Merits is very funny, it's just like asking a student in college why they need good grades, or asking a farmer why they need manure or fertilizer to grow their crops, if I'm not mistaken we are all here in the forum to learn as well as impact knowledge in any way we can and also grow while we're in the process.
 
 Well, according to the forum, one need Merits as well as your activity to grow on here, if you had asked why I'm in a hast to grow, I think it would've been understandable but then. Well I see you're a Hero ranking Member, Asides your activities if you didn't receive Merits how would you had gotten to that point?

[Majestic-milf]

 It can be a bit annoying when you think you are doing the right thing but aren't getting the expected results. Most newbies who come to this forum hope to get acquainted with the place, quickly ingratiating themselves here by following the laid down rules but when the merits don't come flowing, it can dampen the courage of some. I just feel you should continue doing what you do, coupled with the advices of the other users . Even if you want to check on the post patterns of other users that got merited, try not to lose your originality simply because you are being desperate to get merits.
 Some of these merit sources look for something peculiar when doling out merits and as such will want to take their time. Another thing I've observed is that  sometimes these merits come when you least expect it so just continue doing what you do.

[AVE5]

You're primarily not here to acquire merits nor to grow your rank but you're her to grow your bitcoin and crypto related investment knowledges. You can also take an advantage to advance your everyday life in both economy and societies.
Dear mate Op, while you're here and currently a beginner, I'd advice you to stick to create quality and constructive posts. Especially posts that would either serve for solutions or something kind Worth deliberating. Then you can obtain merit if your post interests any forum users who has a Sendable Merit to appreciate your post.
If I may ask Op, what's your aim of being here in this bitcointalk discussion forum?
