OgNasty is a bully, I know that after I looked at owlcatz negative ratings left on him by this bully for speaking against him. wtf man? instead of finding meritale posts of somebody who has PMed you and help them in ranking up you just hand out negative trust? people don't have anywhere to look and ask for merits, so they might directly ask merit sources if they haven't got any merits yet.
Asking for merits is not prohibited, begging for merits is. did you beg or did you ask nicely?

My text was "can you please donate me merit point" with apology in advance that if sending PM disturbs you. I don't fully blame him for negative trust, its my mistake too not going through the rules, but if you punish them for their mistake which they admits and left to live the rest of life with negative trust status, how will the new member will grow? The bounty hunter who don't care about the community will make another account or can even buy account, but those who came to be part of community will be left discouraged.

I may be not the one to talk about this since I have so little experience in the forum. But here I go!

1. Do not ever ask for merits!! Do not try to creep from technical loop holes like "Oh man, Only begging for merits is banned, I did not begged, I just asked!" No It is not okay, Yes I know, sometimes We are pretty desperate when some "valuable posts" (The value of a post totally depends on the individual perspective!! Noobs like us tend to think after posting something that it worths some merit, but actually It is utter bullshit in the eyes of a more experienced user!) do not get rewarded and go deep under in the spamming mega threads where no one notices ever! BUT ASKING FOR MERIT IS STILL NOT OKAY!!!

2. About the negative trust, It can only be removed by the member who assigned it, Therefore contact him. Do not spam him, I thing he would remove the negative trust if he thinks that you have learnt the lesson. I have heard so much about the member ognasty and his attitude towards the forum, He must have done this out of the pure intention of making a spam free forum.

3. I have 3 sMerits left, but since this thread has been created solely in the idea of seeking attention from senior members with sMerits i am not gonna bother to look at your posts history.

Note:
Do not ask for merit, The surprise, Joy you get after seeing some of your posts have been merited is priceless.!!

Thanks. You are a newbie but much more mature than me and may be some seniors here in BT forum and the merits you've earned is very much deserved. I am pretty much raw than you to this forum. I am not expecting any merits for this but suggestions and guidance which you are much clearer even being a newbie. If I was able to I would merit this. thanks for you suggestion, appreciated.
