Look at all these one-line shitposters giving their barely coherent opinions on how bad the merit system is! This is an excellent example of how these noobs have no clue why they're not going to rank up. They think the merit system is biased and unfair, but they're not seeing what the rest of us are seeing--zero effort, zero talent, zero sense posts that will land you on people's ignore lists.
I'm having a hard time convincing myself that these posters aren't alt accounts, because the shitposts in this thread all sound the same and the usernames kind of follow a pattern (some of them) of Word
xWord
y. I haven't checked the account registration dates, but I'm betting most of them will be registered right around the same time.
Take ownership of your shitposts. The following are complete garbage:
Merit is a ranking in bitcoin cryptocurrency. It created for bitcoin in merit ther poor become poorer and rich become richer.
It is strictly prohibited to sell merits. Unfortunately this kind of incidents occur. But I still believe to earn merit by posting quality posts. We all must use our knowledge to create quality posts to earn merit.
I understand why you reacting like this ,unfortunate but it is true that whenever you will try to do something like this it will cause problems in merit system , but we all are hoping that very soon this problem will be solved
I think merit system will help to reduce the unnecessary post or which is low quality based on this it will motive the person who is knowledgeable and who really work hard for this.
Some people nowadays are selling merits to others. This is a very bad practice indeed. If it happens we will lose the trust on the merit system. Though I doubt the number of people who still have trust on merit system.
Based on this merit system is good I think because it will motivate people and encourage people also poor quality post will be reduce. I think it will be a good decision.
I would say its getting manipulated day by day. Some people are using it in a wrong way which leads to state where we cant easily trust the number of merit someone got. So it must be trustworthy for betterment of us.
Nowadays Merit losing their popularity because they are not maintains their performance. People want to bitcointalk in this platform.
Merit is not popular among the peoples and it need to be eliminated. i believe it will change in near future.
This is really sad if people are upto buying merit. The purpose of merit was to encourage good posts. If this has become a means of business too then the forum should have a look into this matter and stop this as soon as possible..
We have to accept that we cannot do anything in this matter as it is a very general object. Merit is becoming similar to buy a cryptocurrency.
i agree with you brother. I feel frustrated when i continuously post quality post but still not get any kind of merit. sometimes i am against with that merit system. But someone told me take patience and try to post more and more quality post. In lower rank position it is difficult to get merit.
If you have money, you may buy merits from buddies. But I think, what it would do? Rather you may try starting good discussions, commenting relevant and quality comments and try to solve the problems people faces in here. That may make you earn merit in a legitimate way.
Merit is a good way to encourage someone to participate more. But nowadays some people manipulate it and people start not to trust this. Its really bad.
Merit is not that bad system. You can utilize it. You can encourage people through it. But its true recently merit system is squeezed.
Take it positively rather than being against the system. It is a way of encourage others about their activity, join those topics and give your perception then other people will merit you if they like your opinion. Its interesting.
I think there are still some people who get their merits by sharing useful information. Those who goes for shortcuts, will be lost in the long run. So we should follow the authentic rules and regulations.
Yeah i have also saw this and this looks really irritating to me. Same things happens in Facebook, reddit, twitter, etc. I wish we have a monitoring system to prevent these things.
It's a common thing and we cannot help it. If you look at other platforms you will find that all of them has this selling points or merits business. I think we can do nothing in this case.
And it just keeps going, even after the bullshit has been called out:
We all know getting merit is not easy. we post lots of quality post but still we didn't get any merit. In that time if we heard people selling their merit. that really frustration fact for us.
When I go to quote most of these posts, interestingly enough they all have a line break before the quote closes. Try doing it for all the members who have WordXWordY usernames.
