I agree. There must be a moderator in giving merits. Some high ranks gives merit to those non sense post. I've seen many times and their are quality posts that is not given by merits.
For merit system, we have already had lots of moderators (I would like to called them as community-moderators). Who are they? They are all users in the forum. All users have rights to evaluate quality of each thread they read; and they also have rights to send their sMerits to which threads deserved Merits.Consequently, I don't think we need specific moderators for managing merits circulation in the forum.
