The art contest was no airdrop. The merits awarded there were for effort, for hours of labour, therefore I really don't understand why it matters if someone earned 300 merits there or 10. They were not airdropped; they were given for real work.
it was no attack against you GazetaBitcoin and the work that went into the art contest deserves my highest respect.
but you have to be honest that it's hard to get the merits you want when you're trying so hard to get them.
how it can work is shown by some examples. there are even many instructions with valuable tips.
it is not so easy to rise in rank and therefore the requirements are in my opinion high enough.
the goal should be to be a meaningful member of the board for everyone anyway and then the rest will happen by itself.
you belong to a select circle of users where merit is above activity. this is not the case for everyone and some users have a really hard time delivering good content.
but fortunately with this topic, as with all other topics, there are different meanings and views
