Very good suggestion, I think every non-native English speakers should read this. For anyone who has an active local community, like Indonesia, Philippines, and Russia, it's easier for them to contribute to their local forum as usually there is still not much high-quality content in the local forum, any member who makes one will surely be noticed and thus easier to get merit.
True. There are a huge number of people who come here because they heard they can make money here in Bitcointalk, even before they knew Bitcoin and cryptocurrency. Members who only care about making money and have no interest in learning Bitcoin/cryptocurrency will add nothing to a discussion.
I checked the local forum for India and there are very less merited posts there. I do not think we have merit sources in that section and this data is not public as well. If a member sees that the posts in his local section are not getting rewarded, he will be discouraged from getting merits. If the admin can just make an announcement like they have at least 1 merit source in each local section, it can be good relief.
I agree to this. But I think these members can be tolerated as long as they are not doing any spam. But practices like bumping own threads, posting reviews for Fake ICOs or posting flase news related to crypto are things that should be dealt strongly.
