OP, how long did it take you to check all the holders and donors of merits? Your screenshots say little, it was enough just to say about it.
In my opinion, it is quite easy to get merits today. Some sources of merit, to spend the entire treasury, send merit in a circle for the same posts.
Others help to distribute merit, not in their local section, but where they are not even a native speaker, using and evaluating posts through Google Translate.
Isn't that enough? And as for those who only receive merit, but do not distribute it. Referring to their message history, most often these are people who are not at all interested in receiving merit, and when receiving such, they most likely do not worry about not giving back. Is there a rule that when we receive something, we must return it?

It takes maybe Half an Hour? Yeah, It's easy to get merit if you are creative and constructive enough. Also, If your English is good enough. Look at Russian Board. Most of the Russian members don't post on the Global section. What would happen if they don't have any dedicated merit source? This is the Biggest Local board in Bitcointalk.
Nope, there are no rules about when we receive something, We don't have to return it. But my point is, Is there any benefit for HoDLing s-Merit?

I see my (supposed) alt account is very active lately. Lol. Grin

Oh, C'mon bro. That was Nightmare for me. Someone accuses that kind of thing without evidence just because you let me post on your thread. LOL. I understand maybe you are used to it. But, Imagine if a newbie gets a bad impression on his starting. How it would feel?

On my local board, there are some profiles that are not too proliferating when it comes to sending sMerits (despite earning a fair share), but I much prefer their contributions through their posts than anything else, and if they don’t want to participate in the Merit System, then that’s their prerogative really.

I don't have any problem with that too. Since sMerits is everyone's personal things. You can contribute as long as you have sMerits. But, If you run out of sMerits, and no one contributes on your local thread, Either you have to earn more merit for sMerits, Or Ask theymos to Top up your sMerit (I am not sure how merit source macanism works)

Don't believe everything you read online.

Okay.

According to that link I am #4 most generous giving merit. Hiding in plain sight, I am also one of the biggest sMerit holders of the forum.

Maybe Just because you are a Merit Source. That's why you have more sMerits. ^{I guess}

If you know 27-ish posts that deserve 50 Merit, please post them in Report unmerited good posts to Merit Source

I don't think there are too many"Unmerited" Good Posts that deserve 50 Merits. There are too many Good posts but either they have a few merits ^(1-5) or more merits. Maybe I can suggest some posts that deserve more merits.

But why again merit-related thread guys? Its enough, better concentrate on other stuffs like Elon adding Doge as a payment mode. Tongue

I don't think there are any rules that we cannot discuss merits often.

Far more important things in life, genuinely puzzles me why people give a shit that much.

I guess you should be a newbie again to understand it. No?
