I'd give you merits for that if I didn't think I'd get crucified for it.

OP, English is obviously not your first language and you don't seem very proficient in it.  Therefore you can probably not expect to earn many merits if you're posting in the English section.  That's just the way it is--the forum is filled floor to ceiling with shitposters who can't write comprehensible sentences, and none of them earn any merits.

Try posting on your local board(s), whatever those are, and hopefully there'll be at least one merit source that frequents them.  Earning merits in general is not easy, nor should it be.  You have to put some time, effort, and thought into what you're writing.  It also helps if what you write is written well.
