Is it just me or has handing out Merit become a lot less common place now? I rarely see anybody handing it out now, certainly a lot less than a couple of months ago.
As a Merit Source (I dont care if people know) I like to look around for good posts & tend to hand out at least 2 a day.
Do we, as a community, need to do more to reward high quality posts, should we be more actively looking to hand out Merit?
I guess when the system was first implemented those who werent Merit Sources had more sMerit & naturally would be more likely to hand it out. Its been a while now though & lots of posters may simply have run out.
There has definitely been a big drop in the amount of posts I see Merited though.
If you still have sMerit do your bit, actively look to reward good posters.
Absolutely sir, I have been trying hard to capture the heart and the mind of so many veteran members of bitcointalk to get at least 1 merit ( I could jump high celebrating from where I am standing right now seeing a merit in my account) for all the replies, quotes and post I am doing. But life's too hard for it. I thought I should pass over a needle hole before I could get at least 1 merit. Too bad but I am still hoping and never giving up finding 1 kind heart veteran.
