Even with quality posts doesn't mean you'll get merit hah
Interesting stuff, but not easy. I'll probably be stuck at Member for a few months

True, there are lots unmerited members and I think posting in correct boards where many members with merits are is the way, but I am not that kind of person to search trough forum and stalk others for merit so I guess we are in the same shoes, it is just you are member and I am senior member.
Others are sending merits to their alt accounts, I don't think anyone of us will reach higher ranks in next few years

Sad to say ranking up would really be entirely difficult compared into previous years.When merit system was being implemented to this forum all things regarding to leveling do really changed up.Its hard but really entirely possible as long we do our jobs on contributing well into this forum.Merits would really flow into our account without our notice.Talking about trust then do usual stuffs on where trusted members doing into this forum like escrow,smooth dealings and transactions etc.
