If you had visited my Merit Giveaway thread you would have been awarded a merit. Starting a mere begging thread like this won't help you in receiving your merits rather it complicates your situation of earning one even though you have a not bad posting quality. If you head onto the Beginners board people like me are conducting active merit giveaways to help Newbies and Jr Members in ranking up.

Certainly This. Making redundant posts in spam megathreads won't gain you merit. I am one among the very few who has gained some merits from the Spamcoin Altcoin Discussion board. It is certainly on which topic you post rather than what you post! I have guided some newbies in creating their own alts, clearing up their source code problems which has gained me merits. They were not Legendaries or Hero members to merit me and probably I post regardless of their rank. Whenever an Altcoin technical topic gets posted in the Bitcoin board they are moved onto the Altcoin boards. Search for such topics and help them.

So, you are sticking on to the main boards for getting the attention of merit sources and receiving merits?
If you are making posts only for receiving merits and ranking up then that shouldn't be. We are here in this forum not to earn and receive merits, but to help others and contribute something to the community. The signatures are just an incentive and to motivate people on making good posts.

If I were to make posts to receive merits, then I shouldn't have visited the Altcoin Board at all. What do I gain by helping a newbie in a spam board which wouldn't be visited by merit sources?

You were not aware of the forum standards and right after knowing that you need a Jr.Member Rank to post images, you seem to be creating this whining thread.

P.S I have given this post a Merit. Not that to rank you up, but I found it better than your other posts and merit was designed to identify good posts and not for those which we accept!
