I already saw some outcome of this adjustments, a negative merit (-161 Loudmouth ) is way too much theymos, maybe you can just remove them instead. I love this. My challenge will be to zero out my merits. I am working on it.

Actually, except for "earn merit for reading posts", this doesn't seem like a bad "real" plan at all.

Any halfway-decent poster should be able to earn much more merit than they lose due to the penalty. But I recognize that some good posts are occasionally overlooked. So to counterbalance the penalty, I also added a system whereby you will earn a bit of merit just by reading posts. If you want to write a lot, you'd better do some reading as well!
Quick merit farming method: Read the whole WO thread from start to finish. Bonus Merit: Post a resume on this thread of your readings with only 15 characters.

Happy April Fool's Day theymos . Oh, you.... It took me about a minute and a half to figure out what day it was today and why Theymos would be writing a post like that. I actually thought he'd taken heed of the community's posts about merit source applications and whatnot and had decided to respond. But nope, just before I saw your post I realized it's that time of year again. And by the way, I don't recall anybody bringing up the traditional April Fools Day joke ahead of time this year, as has been the case for at least the past 2-3 years. So I got caught surprised, which I kinda-sorta appreciate. Heh heh.

It is not yet April 1st in my time zone so I was really fooled by this. I saw a user with negative merit and a poop emoji under their name so I googled if it was possible to have negative merit on Bitcointalk, which led me to this thread.
On a serious note, new ways to combat spam on the forum would be welcomed if they were well thought out and implemented effectively.

~~~ What’s today’s date? Still March 31 here, at least for another 1hr 46mins! So it must be true Theymos and/or the forum seems to operate on UTC... (I.e. universal time?) Theymos is a bot. I might as well throw out anything that I like on this "special" day (gotta try to get even, you know?)I also speculate that reading the forum for 10 days 24/7 will probably earn us less merit than posting one wee-widdo informative wannabe post. Where is the justice in that? On a serious note, new ways to combat spam on the forum would be welcomed if they were well thought out and implemented effectively.
Yes.. there is a "new way" to combat spam that was implemented on the forum in January 2018.. called "the merit system," and now theymos went and screwed it all up. "We" (Royal perhaps?) had a good thing going.

1) Self-Custody is a right. There is no such thing as "non-custodial" or "un-hosted." 2) ESG, KYC & AML are attack-vectors on Bitcoin to be avoided or minimized. 3) How much alt (shit)coin diversification is necessary? if you are into Bitcoin, then 0%......if you cannot control your gambling, then perhaps limit your alt(shit)coin exposure to less than 10% of your bitcoin size...Put BTC here: bc1q49wt0ddnj07wzzp6z7affw9ven7fztyhevqu9k

yeah, it's April Fool's Day, and theymos posted something again. It's always interesting to see what ideas come out of theymos' mind.
I'm impressed once more, and it seems like this tradition will continue for a long time.

Will I drop to a newbie or not?

Boo you all who have the prank away from the first page. It would have been fun to see members struggling to read as much as possible to get yeir merits up. They'll have also been scared to post and lose some of those merits. Would have been the first time some did some actual reading (or maybe just jumping from page to page).
