Bloody hell, I get the point, I really do. But it won't prevent from shitposting anyway, It will just be a pain in the ass for new users, who are just starting their journey in crypto world. They won't be able to post quality content, as they don't have any knowledge. Being a Jr Member all that time will be just demotivating for young fellows. It'll be way way harder to rank up now. Daamn, I mean it's just too subjective.
Then they don't need to post before they do a whole bunch of reading, do they?
That's what I did. I lurked for months before even creating an account, and it was more months before I joined a signature campaign.
These days we've got whole towns in Asia coming here just for the campaigns, and they are all shitposters and they all sound alike. So it's too damn bad that these noobs won't rank up. They shouldn't be able to, and the merit system is near perfect for ensuring that.
