ADVANTAGES:
1. Ginawa ito para maiwasan sa forum yung mga shitposters, account farmers at spammers.
2. Ginawa ito para hikayatin ang bawat isa sa forum na gumawa ng quality post at comment. Para na din sa ikagaganda ng forum.
There are thousands and even millions of users here in the forum,so this is still inevitable,besides there are many ways for farmer and scammers to still make their bad activities and i bet their are bunch of them that have a higher ranks or even using the new system for their benefits.
DISADVANTAGES:
1. For newbie/brand new member. Mahihirapan sila magpataas ng rank lalo na't bago pa lang sila sa forum at wala pa gaanong karanasan sa pag compose ng quality threads na magiging solusyon sa pagkakaroon ng merit points.
This wouldn't be hard for them as long as they're eager to learn and have a perseverance to achieve what they want to get.It is'nt just by making threads though it is not necessary,they can also make replies as long as it is on topic and a have a quality
2. Mahihirapan din ang mga newbie sa pagsali sa mga airdrop at bounty kung saan mayroong required rank para dito.
IMO,i think there are some bounty programs that accepts newbies, though they're rare it is based on my experience when i'm still a newbie.
3. Isa ito sa magiging dahilan ng tao para mawalan ng interest sa digital currencies. Pakiramdam ng mga newbie nawalan sila ng karapatan magpa-rank lalo na sa sitwasyon ngayon.
It depends in every individual.
4. Lahat tayo alam natin na sa digital currencies may mga "farmer" kung tawagin. Sila yung ginagamit ang forum para kumita ng kumita. Kaya sa palagay ko sila itong mas apektado ngayon dahil hihina ang negosyo nila, hindi ko naman sinabing mawawala.
Yeah,and i hope they can be track down now and put an end to their greedy career here in the forum as a new system has been implemented.For me i think those kind of behavior shouldn't have to be tolerated.
