I dont get enough smerits to spend as often as I would like to. This has made me decide that I am only going to give merits to lower ranked members; I wont give any for Legendary members and maybe not to Hero members either.
I think it is better due to scarcity to save them for people who have a long way to rank up rather than for those who are at the top already and get merits easily.
What do you think about? Do you do the same? Do you think it is fair?
You made a nice point, also put into consideration to merit only lower rank members that
contributes positively to the community, that why we will avoid spamming post and the rest.
The merit system was introduced to take care of spamming post as users look for it to be ranked up while doing so they post only relevant post in order to be merited . Also kindly not, if a legendary member post something meaningful also consider meriting the post that way we share the merit round and make bitcointalk better and fair
