It will signal theymos that there is still insufficient number of merit sources I think there is more than enough sources. However, there is still insufficient number of good posts. And making them is much harder, than getting new merits out of thin air. There are still many unsolved technical issues, which could be rewarded with a lot of merits, if anyone would write about them. For example: the current code won't scale to billions of users in a decentralized way: if all people would want to suddenly switch to BTCs, then only whales would be able to do that, and regular users could then only join through centralized custodians. And there are specific technical solutions, which could help to solve that problem, but nobody wrote about them yet, because it is difficult, to understand the cryptography behind some of such solutions, and implement even a working prototype for these things. I understand that this forum is about bitcoin, but you have to wake to the reality that despite the fact that this is a bitcoin forum, it has accommodated other aspects of life. It is must not be all about writing codes or updating bitcoin network. If someone is able to burst the major means new scam casinos operate successfully, they deserve some merits. If someone is able to suggest how this forum could be run better, they deserve some merits. If someone is able to make convincing bitcoin predictions with the available data, they deserve some merits. If someone answers a pain point question, they deserve some merits. If someone deliveres so well in the collectibles, they deserve some merits. It doesn't just start and ends in the technical board.

Hi there,
I don't have any qualifications but I'd like to be a merit source. Thank you.
If you take this approach for maybe a job interview, I am sure it will give a neutral documentary of remarks for you because you just gave up that you are not qualified for the job or position you seek for. Well I will not stress much but I trust you want to make your own merit source application unique from others. In fact you don't want to spice on the motive. Perhaps you are already a legendary which you have gained much experience in the forum for the years of your activities here. Perhaps I went through your merits history and of no doubt, you have been receiving and sending out your sMerits to other members posts. So you are qualified indeed but it is up to the forum administrator Theymos to decide. I wish you good luck.

Anyone who understands the sarcasm of the topic is great at reading between the lines.
Exactly what I thought, I’m not alone in this… quoting myself below Why do I think this guy is being sarcastic about this application or trying to send a message through the manner of application but maybe people are not rationally seeing it from my perspective.
If you take this approach for maybe a job interview, I am sure it will give a neutral documentary of remarks for you because you just gave up that you are not qualified for the job or position you seek for.
Perhaps you might end up seeing that his application in the eyes of theymos is way more qualified than some with walls of text in them, not really because of the application manner but his merit distribution psychology which is one of or infact the most crucial part of theymos merit source qualification.

Don't forget about the clip-based thinking of those who frequently look at their devices. Large walls of text simply won't be readable because people forget what they've read within three minutes🥴. The Internet and social networks like X have done their job. Your application to become a merit source will be more meaningful to the admin if you show how you've sent merits for past posts. Isn't that the best indicator and assessor of what people read and to whom they distribute their merits?

Lolz...but i thought you're a source already..but If you apply today, you will have a lot of supporters..i noticed that everyone wants to become a merit source, and it seems like dropping applications for merit source is the face of new trend in the forum, and almost 85% of one year and six months[1.6] registered forum users wants to become a source with all means...If everyone become a source.. merit system will not be relevant any longer and it will be compromise...

Lol, I am here reading in-between lines again. Some people thought you were already a merit source. How can someone who arguably spreads the most merits to even unpopular people not be a merit source?

We have to read inbetween the lines to really understand what you’re talking about, and I saw your abnormality in what you’re talking about, it shows that you’re not very serious in your quest to become a merit source, but I would’ve been a huge supporter, more like someone that is supporting you to be a merit source, something tells me that you’re going to be a very good merit source, but I’m disappointed that you’re not serious with this your application, unfortunately I can’t do anything about you becoming a merit source, if I had that mantle bestowed to choose a merit source, then I will choose you or vote for you.

I thought you were already. oh wait.Your thinking was right, he's definitely a merit source already if you can create merit source application for fun he can also have some fun by saying such words. Check his profile, there's already a feedback on it, and in that feedback it's clear he's a merit source.

Most posts are not based on good ideas, time spent or anything like that. They are generic shitposts that are aimed at farming merit, a good example would be "suggestions to the forum". What these 3rd world idiots do is ask ChatGPT for ideas and then just fast write a thread to suggest something. This is not what should reward merit. In terms of Bitcoin predictions, less than 1% of price related posts are based on anything and less than 1% of users posting there are actually doing anything of what they are writing about. And so it goes. OP is an AI shitposter that I tagged and put on ignore long ago. The application's intent is to provide a way for them to farm merit to their fellow account farmers. There are issues with merit distribution, adding more merit sources is not the solution. How can someone who arguably spreads the most merits to even unpopular people not be a merit source?
i merit posts, not people. Sounds good if true, it is not true in the case of 99% of merit sources. They have turned merit into a popularity contest. This is seen in the lack of merits in oppositional posts, especially when older members are crushed by arguments or statistical data by newer members. They almost never give out merits to the other side, egoistical retards that can't admit they are stupid but positions of power tend to play on this side of people.

^ Holy mother earth! What good have I done in my life that lord Satofan has bestowed his presence on my thread :teary_eyed: Edit: OP is an AI shitposter that I tagged and put on ignore long ago. I took that tag as a compliment. Like, how good my writing ought to be that you considered it AI written. But, I gotta give it to you, the confidence you have on your tags despite having no substance in 'em. The application's intent is to provide a way for them to farm merit to their fellow account farmers. Ah, now that's way too much reading in-between the lines sir. ... egoistical retards that can't admit they are stupid but positions of power tend to play on this side of people.  You are likely projecting yourself with that one
