Any suggestions on how an automated merit system would work? The purpose of the merit system is to improve the quality of posts in this forum. Quality is subjective which is why I think it has to be given manually. How would you control this in an automated fashion?

Perhaps improvising the application level of the merit system. Here are some of the ideas

How do we automatically judge which post is merit-worthy? Super advanced AI?

After looking at how people merit post, my rough estimate only around 10% that given appropriately to quality post, other than that it is given to friend and people who they know regardless of the post quality, so I don't think the system is working as intended.

Yes it's obvious that we (the users) are misusing it. Sad
