I disagree (-1), this is just like saying if I post 20 times on facebook and I don't get a share (or maybe like) I should be stop from posting. Actually most of my post don't get shared/liked on facebook because they are seen by those who aren't inform about bitcoin and blockchain in general but that's why I make those posts to inform them.
Back to the forum. If I see a technical post especially those ones with all the codes, I just move on because I don't understand them, Just like my facebook friends do.
That's why I agree with this user when he said,
There are many flaws in this.
2. Most of the people are unmerited even after writing quality posts as they are just not detected by someone with smerits.
But there's a solution
Report unmerited good posts to Merit Source i have been using it and so far the results are positive.
