Isn't it so unfair for the people who is new here? That will be struggling making such as good quality post so they could be given a merit by someone. I know all of you is having a hard time thinking what are you going to post such as good quality.

It is really hard to have a merit it is because as far as I know:
People are selfish. Even though you post a really good quality post still there is a people who won't give you a merit.
Some are alone. Like me, I don't really have much friend who would give me a free merit. I know that it is easy to have a merit with a friend that have an account of bitcointalk.

My question is. Why still need merit? We are still struggling to rank because of the merit.

Yes! It is totally unfair. Those who joined last year became legendary members without the real effort and those who joined recently can't come even close to that rank. Merit system favorites the old members. If a newbie wants to reach legendary status he must comment for years and all his posts have to be amazing! Merit system is nonsense now, it should have been introduced from day 1.
