Re: Learn the Basic's Activity for Newbies to Member [Task 1]
Hi, thanks for your post! I think it's brilliant to give tasks that can help newbies acquire new skills! You rock!!
So the Merit system was introduced in January of 2018. According to forum Administrator Theymos, "The merit system was done to increase the quality of the posts and to prevent the spam." According to Theymos it does this in two ways:
1. Forcing people to post high-quality stuff in order to rank up. If you just post garbage, you will never get even 1 merit point, and you will therefore never be able to put links in your signature, etc.
2. Highlighting good posts with the "Merited by" line.
So In addition to activity, everyone now has a merit score and you need both a certain activity level and a certain merit score in order to reach higher member ranks.
