Those accounts are literary high knowledge in crypto currencies, aside on that maybe they growth in digitalization why they have high understanding regarding bitcoin and other crypto currencies. Sometimes when I see nullius accounts i was thinking that it is real that he is a newly participants or it was a sub account of one higher rank in bitcointalk. Maybe they born with high intelligence gift that's why they can easily go with the flow in this sites

It's a Bitcoin forum so it is natural that people with knowledge will write more informative posts and get more merit. Isn't that how it should be?

I certainly think so. That's why the whole merit system was created. It is to encourage better quality posts.

However, when you look over those linked above and where they received the majority of their merit, you see it is mostly from threads on merit. If you look, you can see that there are a TON of threads on merit. I have posted here and there on this thread, but gave up as there seems to be a never-ending supply of people that want to complain about it. I can't recall, but I think I may have even have been one of them (sad to say).
Then, I realized that it is really for the best and the ranks don't mean much unless you are concerned with signature campaigns. I'm not overly concerned with merit myself these days and tend to frequent threads where a lot of the posts are overlooked. The one reason that merit would matter to me is if somebody overlooked my post simply because of my rank.

Anyways, carry on with the complaints from the opponents and the justifications of the proponents on this thread. Cool
