I've been trying to mine this Merit and the intensity must be too high, as I keep getting rejects.  Glad there's no demerits yet


Seriously though, I know its been stated a few times here that the merit system should assist in identifying the people who have quality posts, and are a contributor to the forum.  I agree with a few here that it may lend to people posting longer, trying to get merit based on their post, which still contains very little content/value.

Separately, We probably need a system or ability to report merit that does not seem earned genuinely, creating multiple accounts and handing out merit between those accounts, etc.  Just my 2c
