If you or another person's post couldn't be noticed, then it probably means that it doesn't deserve to be noticed. I browse the forum a lot throughout the day, and I'd say 90% of the good posts I see are already given at least 1 merit. You don't see the good posters complaining, don't you? The only people I've actually seen complaining about the new Merit system are the ones who don't contribute crap and just go straight to campaigns.

And to your title: Merit Ponzi ; You obviously don't know what a ponzi[1] actually means.

Here, I've done the lazy research for you: A Ponzi scheme is a fraudulent investing scam promising high rates of return with little risk to investors. The Ponzi scheme generates returns for older investors by acquiring new investors. source
