From what i have read from the forums in this community, one requires a merit point to rank up from newbie to junior member. While many people are disappointed of the recent demotion of all junior member accounts withou merits to newbie, individuals have shown a great concern for getting merit. From my understanding, one can get merits through "quality" post. If this is the case then what is a quality Post and what really defines a quality post and what are the characteristics of a quality post?
As mentioned here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5030366.0People are demoted because of tons of spam post are spreading in the forum. To control this situation, all Jr. Member are demoted if they don't have merits. And lots like your post, lots of posting happening nonsense, because this is no need to post. Its like redundancy post even there is already a post explaining the situation.
Forget thinking of merits and just enjoy posting here, helping everyone. And after you forgot concerning merits, then time will come your merit will show on your board .. Just enjoy and learn.
