The introduction of Merit was declared as deterring new users with bad posts. And if you think about it - what is the ultimate goal of modern beginners at bitcointalk? Of course, one way or another get into subscription campaigns. And where are the subscription campaigns? That's right, in an anglo board. I used to think that here the Americans are with the British, but here it turns out that there is  rabble from all over the world here.

And so it turns out the following: we in Russian locale on the first line of defense do the main dirty work for free, and on the English board campaign managers comfortably manage their factories of shitposters, already filtered by suckers like us, they monetize themselves and have no problems with the influx of new hunters for a long time argue in Meta in a circle the same thing.

bitcointalk.org became signaturetalk.org

I do not want to participate in that and ask to transfer my merit source functions to someone else.

If you want high-quality posts, remove the signatures campaigns from the forum.
