The merit system seems biased, there is a lot more ass kissing for merits these days than there should be. I've been here for years since 2014, and right before I was going to become a HERO rank, BAM, they introduced the merit system. I'm not getting ready to go to searching for the merit Gods in order to beg for more merit. I'm comfortable being a senior member. It has it's perks.
I’ve already become Legendary before the merit system, but that hasn’t stopped me from collecting over 1200 merits and thus confirming that 1000 airdropped merits aren’t something I don’t deserve - as some imply when discussing it. I think you have the wrong opinion about how to deserve merits, because you imply that they should be sought from some merit gods - and since my merits come from as many as 249 different members do you really think they are all gods which require ass kissing as you say?
Everyone has the opportunity to be a useful and active member, which will result in a reward with merits - without having to do any inappropriate things along the way (of course I'm not saying that such things don't exist)
. There was nothing negative about my post, didn't mean to offend you brother! To each his own.
