Oh bro!!I am able to understand your sorrows. Because,I was also expecting for my activity to increase so that my ranks up.Ranks up means high pays in bounties!!Well said.I loved your equation. But it's true.

I think merit system is a brilliant step.It can prevent unnecessary and shitposting.There are some people who does unexpected and such posts which are not related to the topic. They post on to increase their activity so that they can be ranked up and earn more and more bitcoin.You can tell this was injustice and we were lagging behind for them.But as the merit system comes,those persons cannot be ranked up so easily that they did before.They have to contribute to the forum and their posts cannot be worthless. If so,they won't be ranked up.

But for you,me and other like us have to suffer a little but I think if we can increase our post quality,we won't have to suffer anymore....
