I don't know how you guys play this role of giving sMerits.
Hey - we aren't playing, this is serious.

I used to enjoy looking around, as I found some interesting threads that I probably wouldn'y have opened had I not been distributing largesse.
Recently it seem to be more annoying than interesting. I thought the merit system had improved things, but there seems to be a new influx of members who don't care. I start to wonder if it is a load of bots who don't have aspirations above Junior.
As far as I can tell merit system did not prevent all user to create spam post rather than creating good quality post that deserves a merit. I think he wants to earn merit. Just create one so you would receive a merit.
