I won't dispute that you have been on a signature the whole time since the merit system was started, but weren't you in a different signature campaign in January/February, as compared with the one that you have now?

Yes, it is different. Back then i was on yahoo62278's campaign and now i am on a signature which managed by Zapo. Does it have any differences or bias or something?

I thought that you had mentioned that you had the same signature campaign for the whole time. Certainly, I was NOT questioning whether there is a bias against giving merits to signature campaigns. I was only questioning your assertion of being on the same signature campaign for the whole duration of the merit system.

Isnt the talk is about someone not getting more merit just because they have signature on their profile?
I am not saying me, but there are people who got many merits when they are using signature, so it is kinda different from rivange's hypothesis.

Exactly. I agree, and I think that whiners and signature haters use the presence of a signature campaign as a nonsensical (and not supported by evidence) talking point. I had various sponsored signatures for more than two years from late 2015 to early 2018, and I discontinued with signature campaigns largely because I was becoming irritated by their shifting around the payment amounts, and I considered that it was not really worth it for me to be hassled in keeping track about whether I was getting paid the proper amount... so without telling any signature campaign specifically, I just kind of became fed up with them from a personal management level. Probably I did earn close to 3 bitcoins from my participation in signature campaigns in a bit over 2 years, so it was not a bad thing in terms of scraping together a few more bitcoins.
