I decided to create this topic to raise an awareness and also to thank merit sources. Though not all merit sources, but to a few who are dedicated to ensuring circulation of merits to deserving posts.

Firstly, I discovered that some merits sources who also have good amounts of merits earned are denied of merits (maybe unintentionally) by other members of the forum.
The unmentioned reasons could be that;

• They have enough merits, any need of wasting more on them?
• Someone that generates merits from the vacuum and issue people, should have the power to increase his personal merit count

This might sound silly but it's actually the reality. I have seen countless times some merit sources make quality posts in a particular thread and they will go unmerited. Yet, in same thread, you see them issuing merits to posts that are even of lesser quality to theirs.

No wonder when I was a newbie. I made a post that I so much believed was of high quality but no one sent even a single merit to it. I decided to merit myself since I got some smerits8). But I was disappointed to understand that I could not merit myself. In same vain, can our outstanding merits sources have the supper power to send themselves a few merits every month? (Not actually a proposal, but an idea decorator).

There is a thread to report unmerited good posts, I hardly see posts of merit sources reported there. It therefore means that all good posts from merit sources have received cool amounts of merits (irony).

Thanks to all dedicated merit sources, needless of mentioning names. I appreciate you all.
