I actually am confused if I am happy or not because of the new merit system. I genuinely agree the concept of merit as it is to stop shit posting and shit posters getting paid snd much nore things. But also now we have to get merits to rank up and that can cause a bit of trouble in ranking up. I just noticed that the amount of merits got by the well known members of the forum is quite high when compared to merits received by members who actually have good quality posts. What I'm trying to say is people are giving merits to the upper tier members who basically are the DT members.
I was chill on that, I'm not totally happy regarding the merit system. But I'll take it as a challenge to enhance my ability and knowledge. There's no wrong in merit or demerit system because DT study it clearly, I know they do this to excel our knowledge. Because sometimes even you have no good taught of English, but you work hard and post for long period of time you will reach the legendary position. Now I guess it's hard to achieve because merit system will design to see whose user's improve their post.
From shit poster to very light shit poster to as good poster to a knowledge poster.
Maybe DT wants to improve our selves with our owns, I know we can do it, just trust to ourselves and be competitive. Good luck to all of us.
