Looking at the smerits you've given already, you're definitely not worthy of being a merit source. Merits should be given to good posts, not to your buddies.
The posts you quoted in your op look nothing like the ones you usually reward.
Plus you're in red.
/thread.
Looking backwards, those posts that he had given Merits were good enough, compared to yours? Full of junk posts.
Silly mate, OP has proven his good deeds in here, if you think that you're better than him then try to apply as a Merit Source yourself.
don't want to be rude, but how the hell do you expect to become a merit source with a red tag saying "begging for merit" ?
the only thing that comes to mind is that red trust prohibits you to earn from wearing signatures but you are eager to try and become a merit source and "earn" that way
Lutpin already removed the Red Tag on mydayonliner, trust isn't the only thing that should be relied on, In fact OP has already done a good job here, although he failed on sime attempt to offer beeing an escrow.
And I think it has nothing to do with his application as Merit Source.
