Please submit three instances of you meriting another poster under the above conditions.
How could low ranking members submit three sMerits if they can't even get enough of these merits?
In my opinion, I think your action will only help merit farmers.
Hey, thanks for your feedback. I thought about that as well. To be eligible, participants must have received merit to begin with, so that's definitely a weak spot. Then again, different giveaways cater to different user groups. If this doesn't work out at all, it'll be a lesson learned.
I don't worry about farmers. Merit will only be given if the merited post is of sufficient quality, as decided by me; I imagine that would sift out most farmers.
