Wait, did my posts really get disqualified just because they're in long threads? I understand that this is your giveaway and these are your rules.

It's just that, I honestly was led to believe that the only quality that mattered was my post, and not the overall thread they're in. I don't think that's fair that if a post gets buried in a long thread, it loses quality.. but okay.

Thank you for taking the time to review my posts.

For starters please don't quote entire walls of text, edit out the part that is needed. It's irritating as hell when you need to scroll down walls and walls of text to see a 1-2 liner post referring to someone one point in the 20 odd paragraphs of text that you quoted. Secondly there's intense dislike in people for the megathreads because

They are generally promoting spam, generating tons and tons of useless posts pretty much exclusively for the bounties.
The questions are largely answered to be realistic. We don't need to have 200 pages to know that "Bitcoin makes us rich and can help us make money"

So a lot of users who actually care don't bother reading or commenting in those threads.

But it seems that he's only been doing so by actively participating in these merit giveaways/contests.

As much as I may or may not agree with Nullius' proposal to raise the merit ranking, most of his merit in fact didn't come from giveaways (though some may have I guess. One of his most merited posts (which contributed to around 10-12% of his total current merit) was a post about his Vanity generator for example.
