It's just stupid to make threads about this sort of trivial stuff.
Ouch, that hurts.  I thought you loved me--you even bought me dinner and a movie before coitus.

Seriously, why not make a thread about something like this so that the community knows what's going through the mind of a merit source?  Though I didn't anticipate the outcome, it turns out that it was a good thing I made my 'gripe' public, because 1) Theymos acted, and 2) We're all discussing the changes that got made, and all of this is out in the open.  And yeah, my first inclination was to PM Theymos, but I've never done that, don't think he likes me all that much, and didn't think I'd get any sort of response.  I'm sure he gets tons of PMs daily, and I don't know how he responds to them.  Cut me just a tiny bit of slack, eh?

Ok maybe I was being a little harsh... To be honest, I'm getting annoyed at people opening threads on meta in order to fish for merits... In hindsight this isn't one of those but my point is it could still easily be resolved with a pm now the main issue, not the underlying one and not the actual "experience of a merit source" that's probably worth a thread. I haven't negged anyone yet for it which I think is showing great restraint on my part (the inforgraphics are what really annoy me). This forum is becoming a little bit disinteresting, you have to look at historical threads if you want anything interesting to read at the moment (not for everything just a few things). It disappoints me that more merit has been earnt from meta than everywhere else. Maybe this will change with the new forum software, they're either putting a lot of effort into it or have hired a lot of mercenaries and bought their own island.

I'm not sure theymos holds grudges for long either. I'm pretty sure he used to hate me for quite some time.. 

He is quite a fast replier I don't know how he does it either. It was faster than a btc transaction confirmation at a low fee Grin.




I thought your merit source budget increased with experience and based on expenses for the month (expenses based on smerit not the lambo hilarious has on lease).

@o_e_l_e_o I always take the effort to use the underscores and now you're saying we can just call you Leo? Huh Grin

@mic, wow I didn't make the cut Grin.
