Wrong. IIRC There are undisclosed number of merit sources as posted my Theymos here
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2818350.0But I guess its easy to find out over the days and postings by the merit sources.
I am still new in this and i want to learn more about it. I just want to asked what is merit and trust for? How can i earn merit and trust and where can i get it? Are merits and trusts important here?
Merit was introduced to reduce the number of shit postings and the account level farming going on in the forum. The the more active and constructive your posts are the more they will be merited. Trust on the other hand speaks for itself. The better trust you have the more trusted you will be on the forum. Just go along with the flow of the forum and eventually you will be trusted and merited. Don't beg for it whatsoever
