You are right that text can be an art too but bitcointalk is text-based forum that is why theymos started a contest to select an art as the official art of bitcointalk if I m right about it. Also you have mistaken me as a senior member rank which I am not. If you don't read and watch carefully things like this will happen again.

Your post is not that bad and I also don't find it as a good post. You have created a thread that it's not that really necessary to create. I'll send you a merit as a motivational in posting good post.

You have a nice concept in your art and it deserves a merit.

You are right that no one did record their zero merit but everyone knows that every forum user who's rank is jr. member below doesn't have a single merit at all until the rank requirements has been changed that in order for you to rank up jr. member you must have merit. Before the merit is implemented those forum members that has rank starting from member to legendary will automatically received merits base on their rank.
