The idea isn't good at all.
If you need to create a special badge to point out "good" posters, something is going very wrong.
I have an own concept for those who are not shitposters and not exceptional posters, so they fall into not bad, OK, and good poster categories, but it is just a rough idea.
What the hell happend to this forum being moderately libertarian? Why do you have to categorize everyone? This is exactly the type of stuff that's so disgusting about present-day politics.
Merit in itself is already pretty silly -- (You'd think that everyone posting here would do so in a moderately constructive way, right?), but adding "badges" to ascertain good and "Bad" posters seems
extremely childish to me, and it makes me wonder why/if this (is) still (is) a crypto/bitcoin related forum.
What's next? Someone's going to grade my last 100 posts?
