I appreciated your decent time to code the scripts for users but if I was you, I would not going to this one. Users, personally know how many sMerits they have at specific point of time. While if one user is curious how many sMerits left the others have, they might choose to use your scripts and your JSON API for merit data.
I don't say negatively about it but I wonder what is the true reasons to look at the others' unused sMerits (to beg for merits, something like that).
BPIP provided that statistic during a very long period till the day it stopped showing that one. I don't know why Vod decided to stop providing it. As I remembered, BPIP did not provide that statistic before it shown issues with data scraping recent months.
Anyway, thank you for the script and happy new year, @hatshepsut93.
Huh? Where did you get the idea that I provide any data related to sMerit? I only provide data for merit transactions and merit profiles, and merit profiles have earned and
sent merit, and that's all.
As for BPIP, the difference is that this is an API rather than an app, the goal of API is for other people to build on top of it. I have created a userscript that displays user's earned merit below their actual merit in threads, by requesting this data from this API. One can create some merit statistics tool based on my API without having to do any scraping themselves.
