It's amazing what people think they might get merits for... I'm not sure if it is just sheer desperation to get those first 10 merits to get out of Jr. Member or what? 
But after repeatedly telling people to stop posting in mega-threads... every other submission is post#324823642 in a 50+ page "Is bitcoin even real?" type thread 
But after repeatedly telling people to stop posting in mega-threads... every other submission is post#324823642 in a 50+ page "Is bitcoin even real?" type thread It does take a lot of time to hunt for decent posts. At one stage, I was even considering giving up the hunt, and giving all my smerits to TMAN.
However, I decided that it would be better for the forum if I tried to help people to improve their English. This is why I started the Fit to Talk English help project. I'm a bit disappointed by the fact that very few members are interested in this, despite the fact that lack of English skills seems to be considered as the primary reason for not being awarded merits. I'm starting to think that the main reason for the lack of interest is the fact that you can't spam your signature, and you can't earn any merits over there.
