Are merit source assigned to a particular board.

Those who are merit sources distribute merit more in the boards where they are more active and post, but they do not distribute merit in the boards where they do not post because they are not interested in those topics. However, since there are different boards in this forum and it is created from the forum, of course merit distribution is necessary for good posts in each board. But these topics are not seen in places like Economics, Trading Discussion, Altcoin Discussion, Trading Discussion, Politics. It is not that merit is not given in these, but it is given in a much smaller amount. So, of course, you should keep an eye on these boards. Although I myself do not post on politics because I am not interested in political debates, there are some posts here that deserve merit.

Rephrase it  as  "they distribute more merit to board where they are more active", they don't need to  be actively posting/ post in  such boards just  to distribute merit  there .

There are good topics /post in Trading discussion  and Altcoin discussion even though I do not often visit altcoin that much but i still visit  and post there, I can confirm there are quality post and thread there. I've seen alot of quality post from =OmegaStarScream (among others ). The problem with those boards are the irrelevant ones overshadowing the good ones so youare still right on how merit is being distributed over there.

I agree with you that there are some good posts that are merit worthy. However, as you said, if the merit sources does not visit those threads, they won't be able to see those posts. I assume majority of the merit sources do not like political discussions as well, which is why they do not read those posts. As a result, there are less merit distributions in those boards. The good thing is, there are some threads where you can report good posts to be merited.

If you thing there are some posts/topics that deserve merit, you can always collect the link and post in those threads to get them merited. I actually don't care much about merits anymore, which is why I do not report either.

From the applications I have seen, I noticed that members who applied for the merit source position stated the various boards they intended to merit, and the majority of them are for local boards that Theymos approved, and also Theymos, in one of his posts, stated that he would like to get local board merit source so I think he was specific in that area which prompted the local boards members to apply on behalf of their local board and he approved them as merit source. So in this case, he assigned them according to their applications, which he had approved by making them merit sources for their local board.
