Not really 4 months is not even half of the year and I would think that looking in depth in someones merit history to determine whether they are meriting to the standard of the other merit sources is a pretty time consuming thing to do. theymos probably checks for several other factors too.
I hate when people don't get sarcasm. Let me tell it out loud, THERE WAS SARCASM IN THAT POST!
Obviously, I know theymos checks other factors, he wouldn't be an admin if he won't do his own research. Come on, man..
It took me more than 3.5 months, almost daily bumping, and many "vouches" in the thread to get processed. I haven't seen any sources added since.
So it will take me a year atleast to become a merit source. Nice.
I have a feeling that 80 is the limit for now. When the number dropped to 79 LoyceV got approved quite quickly.
Oh.. Thanks for the encouragement. Really helps.
Really..
Loyce V, you should thank digaran if that's the case. I am waiting for him to accuse you, that, you paid theymos to make you a merit source and also that you wanted to use your merits to give it to your chipmixer alts.
