The merit system is not working, look the merit points of people on the forum, it does not move (even for the more relevant posts), the forum established a system which was suppose to penalize newcomers flooding the forum with useless post, but the forum penalize itself, good luck everybody, If you think people will give you merit points for free you are mistaken.

You aren't right. Look at this stats: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=merit;stats=recent

Almost every minute here in forum is some post rewarded with merit.

Seriously? That's an absolute joke given how many active users there are in this forum. It's like squeezing a dried dish towel for a drop of water when you need a bucket of it. Even people that make frequent good posts that receive +1 merit will spend years for their next rank up. There are exceptions yes, but it's incredibly rare and will remain incredibly rare unless the merit system is drastically changed.
