the merit system is a scam trying to keep the guys up on the ivory tower. don't try to reason with them or suggest alternatives. they will always find a way to tell you that what you're proposing has certain downsides. Except for the perfect merit system they came up with. What a joke!
I think you're just impatient lol. I looked through your last 40 posts, and 60% of them were 1-liners or 2-liners, while the rest were pretty meaningful, so you know how to post good content, yes.
I think it's just that people are reluctant to give out merits right now because it's being mixed up with the Trust system.
Either that, or they have too few sMerits and aren't getting so many merits themselves, so they're reasoning that they should only give merits to really, really good posts.
The system is still equilibrating. But as you can see you already have 1 merit... and getting 1 merit when you post mostly 1 or 2-liners is a miracle lol.
So the system works. I bet you'd have 2 merits if your next 40 posts are 60% paragraphs rather than 1-liners
