Re: Merit & new rank requirements

As a newbie, I literally have no idea about this Merit system. It's been a long time since I've created this account though. Can anyone tell me how do I get started?

Based on your activity I can see that you weren't an active member.

How to get started.. Hmm, how about creating useful posts? Or just discuss with the other members. This way your activity will increase. Your merits not guaranteed.

So merits are just "likes" for useful posts. Am I right in thinking so?

Yes..,. and they help you to rank up too, in the even that you want to rank up.

Ranking up is not necessary in order to be able to participate in the forum in terms of posting and reading posts, but some signature campaigns or even some other forum related ventures (such as bounty campaigns) might have minimum merit requirements.
