Thank you xandry for your time and finally to notice the topic. I have been trying to get your attention on this topic since the day I have created it, Even I
sent you a PM. It took long however, I am happy that ultimately I had you here.
...now I have stopped give merits for explanation of rules, who sends reports, because as a result I had concerns that this could not be used correctly and such way to receive merit would become too easy, and also it isn't clear for many other users....
It's
not impossible to earn merit by creating good contents, engaging in conversations, by being to the point. I have no doubt that the idea of yours (there is a reason for you to be a staff) had good intentions however it was
too easy to
misuse by the members and they in fact took that advantage. Here you have
some data.
I encourage people to give merit to posts that are objectively high-quality, not just posts that you agree with.
The spirit of the whole idea of merit is to encourage users to create good contestants, contents that a relatively high-quality.
