To say the least, something of this nature was to come upon the community sooner or later. Increasing cryptocurrency awareness is bringing so many new users to this forum and everyone is heading up the hierarchy. Sadly enough the upper room isn't always enough for everyone on the pyramid and there has to be a way to slow down progressions. Merit is not just a sanitizer, but also a tranquilizer.
Hahahahahahaha
The keeping the stampeding masses down from the top of the pyramid theory. Great.
Yes it's a bit like that when you read between the lines...
Anyway this new system might bring an higher quality of posting. Lately with the "Rank race", lots of thread were polluted with useless and/or low quality posting...
