Why is this necessary? You could just as easily argue that it's then not fair to all the old timers who have been making quality contributions here for years. I'm not sure why you really care about others either as it doesn't effect you at all. You should accept it and be more concerned about making quality posts to receive merit yourself because regardless of whether it was retroactive or not you would still be in the same position.

And if someone decides to take a break from the forum? Roll Eyes

Should we also go back and start re-meriting every post ever made so that old members get their "fair share" of merits? That idea was also brought up at some point. It's all quite meaningless though. The merit system has been designed to curb shitposting going forward. It's not going to give you some sort of retroactive social justice. Focus on your own merits. Start with punctuation.

well there is always the activity .. if the member own activity with no merit it may make sense

also you understood me wrong am pointing to those alt high rank accounts that only do bounties ( i think i replied to a specific post that talk about rank farming before the merit system

)

Rewards early adoption.. simply being in the right place in the right time is the most important thing in life, and this system heavily rewards that to its earliest users.

fair enough

like in the bounty campaign that people who complain about merit join [ first come first serve ] you don't like that ? then work for it and post better contents .

you should read all what i said
