Lets make it quite clear. Merits are not there to help members to rank up.
Lmao. This is funny.
Is there an alternative way to rank up without merits good sir? Can i buy my way to legendary? Please tell us the magical secrets, good sir.
You are not getting all his points. You should read it over and over again so that you can have a good understandings on his thoughts why merit sytem has been created.
In my opinion promoting newbies and low rank users are alright as long as they are qualified to to be promoted in accordance with their posting habit. Awarding them of merits is a job of the merit source which has been tasked by the admin of the forum. If there has been a problem in awarding with merits then the admin of the forum should get all the attention of the merit source and re-orient on how should it be done.
However, there is no point in stopping spammers to rank up especially if they too created quality posts. I think this kind of members that are complying with number of posts in signature campaign make sense on why they spam the forum with their posts.
The question is that are those spammers could not make a contribution to make quality posts for the forum? If they can contribute some quality posts then high chance that they still get some merits and rank up slowly in the process.
You guys are just making it more complicated and that created confusions. Again, this is the job of merit source to reward merits of members that contribute help for the forum and to other members so let them do their job and have trust in them.
I've come across quite a few posts viewing the merit system to be faulty as users tend to function in a merit cycle thereby awarding themselves which is most unlikely, and some others don't view the merit system as a perfect judge for quality posts.
Most likely for your information blood is thickier than water. it means that families, relatives and even friends that are here will tend to get bias when they had merits to send. However, I encourage forum members to invite family members to join in this forum.
"As we all know that if familys stays together in this forum will learn together in cryptocurrency". The forum will be like some sort of venue for bonding discussing about cryptocurrency.
