From what I've seen, meta is the only forum where people are willing to give out merit. No one in the altcoin forums is willing to use it. I've made numerous posts that have gotten "thank you" replies, but no one has clicked the button yet. Then I come in here and I see people giving it out left and right just for sharing an opinion or being well known.

I dunno, I'm just extra salty because the system was put in to place like a week before I was supposed to rank up to full member so now I've got a lot more work to do to get there. Just need to find the right places to post I guess.

I had a quick look at your recent post history, and most of it seems to have been on the alt boards. There are quite a few of us who don't visit those boards, and thus we don't award merit there.

Right, that's kinda my point. It seems like the system is very lopsided and promotes posting on just a couple boards. I get why some people don't visit the altcoin boards much; wading through piles of generic/spam posts to find any sort of quality content can get pretty tedious, though it is there. I just don't like the fact that the merit system directly affects the altcoin boards (mainly bounty participation) which is also where there is the least incentive to use it (you gain nothing from giving out merit, and helping someone else rank up could adversely affect your ability to get in to a bounty with limited spots or allow them to earn more tokens than you).
