I see a point here, while looking the info graph, I realized that we must merit some deserving newbies since it is too hard for them to rank up at least full member. That's why some newbies getting desperate for having more merits because it is too way long for them to reach this. Making some quality posts for merits makes them to be a standard member of this forum specially when they experience more knowledge about cryptocurrency and achieved the high ranks. So the advantage of this merit system makes the new generation more stronger, i mean more knowledge to discuss about something related in bitcoin. It's like, They can easily answer most common questions and discussions that can't be answered by the newbies of the old generations this past years. I'm amazed when i discovered some mysteries about our new system.

It will take some time for newbies to understand a lot of things going on around about the cryptocurrency here in the forum. I think that there should be a sub-merit system specifically for newbies till they reach member rank as they become more informed and knowledgeable. I have nothing against the current merit system but isn't better if there are ways to help them rank up since for newbies there's a learning curve for them to put up quality contents to their posts.

People are creating threads focusing on distributing sMerits especially for Newbies and Jr. Members. So I think it is possible for them to obtain 10 Merits and rank up to Member, after which one needs to spend a certain time to accumulate Activity anyway.
