you need at least 1 merit to increase to Jr member
where can i get merit?

I read somewhere that you can buy merit, but even if that was possible, I wouldn't like it. I always try to write helpful, valuable posts, but I have seen posts of mine which were not really considered very good in spite of my best efforts. Is there some link which could show newbies how to gain merit? If there is, can someone please share the link?
this is a useful link explaining how to get merit:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4932316.0

And dont buy merit, if you want to have some of the advantages of higher (member) rank you can buy a copper  membership, please see rhe following link. Its only about 11 euro:

Adding to this, absolutely do not try and buy (nor sell) merit. Doing so will most likely result in you earning negative trust or possibly getting restricted in other ways. Buying and selling of Merit is technically against the rules and guidelines set forth for Bitcointalk. Merit is a gauge for others to see how helpful your posts have been on the forum, and they must be earned. Otherwise, as was stated above, you can buy a copper membership and the funds spent on this are used to keep Bitcointalk running.

A long time Bitcointalk user, TMAN, made a guide on how to better earn merit at this link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3376729.0;topicseen

The above guide is probably one of my favorites on earning merit.
