I understand that Legendary can probably write more quality threads but I think the overcap merit is almost trashed merit since they don't need it. Don't you think is better to use it on Newbie-Hero Members?

I opened a thread about that some time ago (already locked):

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3529898.0

And I was also recently commenting on the subject on another thread.

To what has been said already on this thread and on those, Id just like to point out that Legendaries also need merit: first because it is for them a way to see their efforts and contributions to the forum recognized, and second because it is quite likely that a new rank above Legendary will be implemented in the future, and I suppose the merit requirement for that rank will be very high, like 2500 merits at least.
