So there are countless topics in this forum that are answered in like the third or fourth post but are continued to be filled by shitposters with the answers just repeated in different styles.
One way that I think to stop that is the user who starts a new topic waits for his answer and when he does receive the most satisfactory reply to his topic he awards the reply a merit and then locks the topic so that no further waste gets accumulated in the topic and anyone who wishes to gain knowledge can just read the topic and get only what he exactly wants. What this would also do is make the merit system functional and no one would have to wait for light years to get promoted to a new rank.

So please suggest any of your ideas.
I'll start implementing my idea from now by choosing the best 2 ideas and award each 1 merit!

Fazlurkhan.kz why do you want the user who starts a new topic locks it once he got what he was looking for? They are not interested in the replies, they don't really have a question either. They open a topic, then wait some minutes and use their alt accounts to reply to themselves or their buddies come to participate in ~~the discussion~~ the rank race.

One problem with locking a topic as you suggest, it prevents users to have a discussion, debate... which is the reason we're here basically
For example, you open a discussion and then 1-2 members reply to you. While you got your "best" answer, someone may be interested to add something, to give his/her opinion, correct this or that, whatever...

With time you know what topic to avoid just by reading the title
