Instead of spamming the forum with nonsense long paragraph of texts, and trying to become look helpful in hope of getting MERIT. Just wondering are you admins allowing people or freelancers to get paid via Merit if the client doesnt have money and can only pay using his Merit? or this will result into an instant ban? Please let us know to avoid violation.

Thank you

To be able of doing that, merit should have an economic value, meaning:
- the merits should be listed somehow in a platform like coinmarketcap or similar.
- also, the receivers should be able of exchanging them, either for cash or whatever coin they want.

In a resume, merit should become an asset, a coin, and that's really far from the spirit of the merit system.
Why? Well, because the merit system was implemented as a way of saying the people "Good work". This is just like a way of creating an identity in here, as something more personal than economical. The forum reached a point where it was necessary to create a difference between good and bad posters, as you might know. So, obviously, it is far for being related to any economic value itself. Now, of course, by earning merits, you can rank-up and, by doing so, access to some of the opportunities of earning in here (if that's your interest), for you are demonstrating that you have something of value to the community. So, if merits become an asset, the mere spirit of the system will be lost.
