How do you get merit?
Let's contribute to the forum, help other users if you can with high quality, constructive posts. If readers (I mean users) feel that your threads are useful (at least for their cases), some of them (I would like to emphasize, only some of them) will ready to send you their sMerits (sendable Merits). When you have 10 Merits and 60 activities at least, your account will be ranked up to Member rank, which has several priviledges in the forum.may i ask. Do they really follow the rules?
There is simply no way to not obey the rules, every merit which will be added to your account is visible, so you can check who "likes" your posts. Imagine what admin can see - yes - all the merits added, so let's run simple imagination form, where you get for ONE post 10 MERITS which is HUGE! It already makes your way towards memeber status a lot easier. And, hell, all these merits came from one transaction, from one member. This member has got a lot of merits and he used them for you. Great. But, by sending you 10 merits, if I would be an admin, I would highlight that guy and check his other transactions, because by sending THIS amount of merits in one form would be a simple way of boosting other accounts, like a... let's see, selling merits for cash or crypto
Hmmm. Interesting. I hope that's not the case but I'm sure there is always those that game the system. Hopefully the mod's keep this in-check.
