The signature didn't play a role for the merit I got at all. In the very beginning I joined a project which turned out to be scam and of course I didn't got paid, lost a few months and decided not to join any campaigns as they were waste or time and the merit system came in the meantime. Then I was wearing no paid signature for a couple of weeks then joined one project of Tokensuite as I thought they were reliable, but unfortunately another disappointment.
Finally found a campaign by izanagi narukami, which was only two or three weeks but I finally got paid.
During all that time I was receiving merit without any problems.
So the conclusion: no matter if you are with paid signature for altcoins/bitcoins or without signature at all the merit are coming because of the content you are posting.

Actually, I still do not see why some people eager to upgrade to higher ranking member. To me, as long as I can read and can make a post, merit wouldn't make any different in anyway.

Higher Ranking Member is indeed helpful.
For instance, a Newbie rank member can't embed a link of an Image in their Topic/Post, i mean they when they paste a link of an image via. Insert Image, the link would be shown as it is, instead of displaying the image itself, whereas a member rank starting from Jr. Member can embed image link to their Topic/Post which would be visible to others within their Topic/Post.

This feature of Inserting Image is required by some Sellers.

Merit and Rank could be also helpful sometimes to trust a Seller, when your looking to avail a service from some XYZ person here.

Last but not the least, Member Rank starting from Jr. Member get a feature of Signature, that's again a highlight. I hope you understand, what i mean..

Concluding Statement, you will lack the following features, if your Rank / Merit doesn't increase,
1.) You cannot send PM to any Member in this forum, who has opted for the option (Do not allow PM from Newbie), this option is selected by default for all members
2.) As a newbie, you can't insert images to your Topic/Post
3.) As a newbie, you won't have an option of Signature

In short, Member Rank as well as Merit both has it's very own Advantages in this Forum.
We need to achieve it with Quality Post..
