The meta board is again getting clogged with topics centered on merit description and which was answers can be found with a little effort put into research.

Really? I haven't noticed that there have been an inordinate number of them lately. Back when the merit system came out and then after the 1-merit requirement to achieve Jr. Member went into effect, it seemed like every other thread (or more) was about merits. Compared to those two occasions, Meta has been downright quiet as far as merit threads are concerned.

Do you think such will be implemented,

I doubt it. Theymos had floated that idea around since the beginning of the merit system and it hasn't happened yet. There might be some sMerit hoarding by senior members who couldn't care less about the merit system (gameristo comes to mind) or who are inactive, but I don't see how decaying those sMerits would solve any problems.

As far as when merit sources get their monthly replenishment, it's been my experience that it's usually on a specific date--that's how it is for me, I think, but I haven't really been paying close attention. I still have a hell of a lot of earned sMerits to give out and I haven't run out of either supply in quite a while.
