Merit requirements too difficult not just to JR. Members but also to other members who want to be promoted also, I really felt sad and discouraged about this MERIT REQUIREMENTS that they are imposing in this forum because all LOW RANKING MEMBERS like us will never have the opportunity to promoted a higher rank anymore because who do you think will spend their time reading our posts and then giving us a MERIT? everybody in this forum are busy doing their own thing so having a MERIT is next to impossible thing. This is just a big discrimination for low ranking members which denies them the opportunity to be promoted.
