I haven't been much around the last couple of months and all of a sudden a Merit system has been integrated. I think it works fine. If I compare the quality of posts in main boards, now it's much more helpfull than it used to be.

But it looks like the spam moved to the local boards. If I take a look at the Dutch boards, lots of s****y projects are posted there. I also see a lot of spam and discussions that, in my opinion, don't belong on Bitcointalk. Also I see a lot of bounty hunters over there, posting things you can't take serious.

Can we do something about this and introduce a Merit system for local boards only? So that it is also needed to post quality on those local boards and prevent people from posting spam and worthless content?

Or is this just a problem for the local Dutch board?

I think it should be a problem with local boards individually. I haven't seen the same problem on my board, however, it's less active than others. Anyways, it's a pretty good idea. In my opinion admins should really think about it.
