Feel free to comment about it guys !
Most people seem to be ignoring the main and positive purpose of the merit system: It gives appreciation and encouragement to good posters.
The whiners are exactly the ones who should
go away.

Yeah, and most of them people is at the "low member ranks" category according to the statistic i gathered. But Some of it (57%, 16 people i count on this thread) are happy with the system because they agree with the system which can make a better forum and encourage good posters.
There is a better option for the whiners rather than leaving, which is to realize that this is the good system and should be embraced by him/her and start learning and doing something good for the better oh him/her.
By the way, congratz man, 187 merits wow, thats a good achievement.
