If you had spent some time to read the post then you'd realize that I don't care for receiving merits, I want that system gone.

Then come up with a better system to reduce spam. From what I've read, removing signatures would be a last resort.
For your information: I don't send Merit to friends, and I don't have 867 "friends" on this forum. I send Merit to posts that aren't spam, as that's what this forum needs. Note that my Merit is not an endorsement, I don't agree with most of what you're saying.

The DT system isn't perfect, but you too can do your part:

I encourage anyone to create their own custom Trust list!

How are people who spend only a couple of hours on here on a weekly basis going to construct a trust list from scratch? Building your own trust list is reasonable only for those who spend countless hours here, normal/conservative don't absorb enough information to construct a trust list that would be reliable in any sense.

handing out 10 merits for posts like this.

I'm just leaving this here:

If they complain about amounts, tell them to complain to me. It's best if sources try to exhaust their source allocations, even if it means giving posts higher amounts than is typical.

Do I have to spell everything out? If you read carefully, you'll realize that my argument is that that post doesn't deserve to be merited at all. My quarrel is not with the amount that was merited.
