I have wrote over 800 post still have not got a single merit point
JR Member to Newbie (WOW)
In your post most of them or 90% of them are bounty reports, if you are telling that post is counting to get merits then everyone will get easy merit. Everyone will make spam post just to reach that said amount, then that's the reason why they are implementing 1 merit for Jr. Member, due to spamming nonsense post. So weekly bounty report is not acceptable as a good post. That's the plan, never expect any merit and forget about this thing. And that time you'll get yours.

Take a look of this, a small amount will help you understand.
