Just saw this now, congrats to suchmoon. This is my best of his. I still launch each time I come across post (never gets old). If you haven't read enjoy
READ THIS WHOLE POST BEFORE ACTING LEST YOU GET VERY UNDESIRABLE RESULTS.

I have a major pet peeve with the merit system. I often see some disgruntled users complaining that deserving posts don't get merits therefore the system is unfair. But when I ask for examples of such posts I usually hear a cricket chorus in a tumbleweed. So I've decided to stop asking for examples because that's pointless. However just in case I'm wrong about that - keep reading.

First of all, if you're seeing under-merited posts and you don't have enough sMerits to reward those posts then you should apply to become a merit source. If you've done that and haven't been appointed yet, or if you're already a merit source and you ran out of sMerits, or if there is some other serious reason that prevents those brilliant posts from receiving merits - keep reading.

Send me a personal message (PM) with a subject "Post deserves merit" and a link to a post that needs merit and a brief explanation why you think so. If I have spare time and spare merits I may review it and decide to merit it.

  • DON'T send me links to your own posts.
  • DO send links to posts of other users.
  • DON'T post requests in this thread.
  • You can send me multiple links but my attention spa... spa?! Sounds fabulous!

tl;dr: Nice try. Read it all.

suchmoon? suchmoon came in second. Revisit the list to see who came in first. Hint: It wasn't Leroy Fodor, Marshall Long or Nick Spanos, of which ALL claimed to be mining and trading bitcoins in 2009 when this community had less that 19 people in it and prior to the first exchange being created, with Nick publicly stating that he didn't know who Satoshi Nakamoto was/is, then later referring to his notes to relate a story that he'll never forget about him and his dad pertaining to a bicycle. Makes me pine for the days when Atlas and Matthew Neal Wright entertained us while I was honing my chops.
