Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion
That's more like it. I think Theymos did a good job.
TL;DR Trust for trades, flags for marking jerks. Good.

The prime example that the merit system is a joke and serves no purpose is the fact JayJuanGee has a high level of merit. None of those systems promote any honest or factual level of discourse. All it is is someone posts "HURRR Bitcoin will go to $5 trillion each by tomorrow" then waves of mindless scammers give him +merit. Things like merit, flags, and everything else are then nothing more than gauging who is most heavily pump and dump shilling. This is why people like Trollgoossens have high merit as well, for doing nothing more than pump and dump shilling.
Haha sour grapes if its so easy where is all your merit? about 12 merits some suckers gave you. Now youre all upset.
Id say that's working pretty well.
(sorry all)
Don't get me wrong.. standing up for the sour puss, roach, but he has received much more than 12 merits. In fact, he has received 194 merits from other members since the implementation of the merit system. You can see all of his received merits on BPIP. Currently, he is ranked as 312th most merited, which is no small feat given the thousands of BTC talk members... also, kinds of contradicts his points about only the undeserved receiving merits, and he seems to be a kind of "undeserved" merit receiver... while quite stingy in giving out any merits..
Notice that he has only given out 12 smerits in the two years since the merit system was established.
Don't get me wrong. Roachie poachie is still a fucktwat, but there are some members who do send him smerits for his largely baloney, irrelevant and/or butt hurt posts.
