So I was thinking, if you really want to have less shitposters why not change the ranking requirments, make it even harded to level up so shitposters stay away.
....

Probably the same thought came to every user's mind who was dumped from his jr. rank (I'm not an exception Wink

) and have to work for merit or pay for copper
Literally: "if I have a harder time, let others have too"

However, according to stats juniors and newbies are a real problem from the shitposting/spamming point of view - we have about 50k user from member to legendary who didn't earn any merit so far (my previous calcullations)... and close to 2.000.000 newbies and juniors...
So numbers show everything....

One more:
If you would like to rise the requirements for Member 5 times theoretically you should pay extra four times more for your copper membership (as long it's similar to member rank)...

By the way: why you wrote 2 different threads within an hour with such simmilar content?

First off, I agree with the implementation of 1 Merit for Jr. Members, but I find it unfair that those who were already Jr.Members were demoted to Newbie again, it's just unfair, they should have received 1 Merit from the System automatically and so only new members would be needed to get 1 Merit. When merit was implemented everyone automatically received Merit based on activity, so why is it now different?
