1. The process of sending merit seems a bit annoying. You've to go through another web-page and select number of merit to be sent and then send it. IMO, it'd be better if it could be sent just by clicking "+Merit" button right within the thread.
2. It'd be much better if you guys allow only one merit by the merit-sender per post. This will reduce fake-merit-exchange or fake-merit-giving. There're people sending tens of their merits to a single post which clearly seems like something fishy.
I agree to #1
But disagree to #2. What if a post is really good and you feel like you want to award more than one merit? I feel like posts should receive an equal amount of merits as how good that post is.
We're opposite. In #1, I don't think it's necessary to change the system on how you send a merit because redirecting to another web page is not a hassle at all (maybe it does if you have a slow internet connection).
In #2, Actually, giving couple of smerits is not bad because the more smerits you send only implicates that you more appreciate one's post. But what happening right now is many members of this forum use this as a gateway for the benefit of their own that's why I also agree in "1 merit per post" somehow.
