It would be insane. Because, a legendary is contributing to the forum far longer than the merit system exists. It is very much possible that a hell lot of posts created by him/her in past were worth of merit, but it were not awarded any. Now, if only the earned merit is considered, it'll be highly unjust to the old posters.
This is the worst defense statement. What happened to their contributing power after merit system implementation?
ok, if you want to say they are not active now (though nothing stop you to meriting old posts) but will you still agree on
Activity Based Demotion i.e removal of 1 airdropped merit for 2 activity gained , after the implementation of the merit system.
I heard about huge merit giveaway in the situation of different kinds of deals between members.
I am interested in knowing
what kind of deal is done here.
