So, if I send merit points to another user it will be deduced from my account? Most of bitcoiners are holder by nature I don't think they will spend their points even if they cross a good post ( maybe they will do if you pay them well

)
It will be hard for moderators to check all members posts if they ask for their merit points (10 constructive posts), it would be better to use a Demerit system to punish shitposters.
No, actually not. You won't lose your merits for sure. What you really send to others is your sMerit, which is sendable merit. Hence, what you will lose is sMerit, and you have nothing to gain for keeping sMerits for yourself. Only merits will help you to satisfy new ranking system which highly correlated with both the your merit points and your total number of activities.
Additionally, users who receiving merits also increase their sMerits by 50 percent. I mean when they get 10 merits from others, they actions focally have 5 more sMerits in their accounts, which in turn allow them to send those sMerits to others as gifts and help. That is the way merit system work and the approach in which users help each other as real, strong community over time.
Merits of my threads useful, constructive, ok?
