Do some persons send merits in advance before reading a post? If yes, it's not a good habit. Unless it's someone I know that has been producing quality topics, even at that, I'll still be able to read through to determine the amount of merits to hand out.
As a Merit source, I'm always grateful if someone is writing good comments because I want to distribute as much as possible of my sMerit for quality content. Some of the good posts are very long and when my time is running out, I'm sometimes leaving a tab open to read the rest later, while already distributing some Merit after reading like 50% of it. Sometimes I'm also forgetting that I've left a tab open and therefore the rest goes unread sometimes...
For the issue above, it doesn't require much time to check but it's still a trap for unexperienced Merit senders, which can fall for this.
And yes, for example some topics from fillippone are very long, sometimes it's too much work for me to read them entirely.
But his topics are of amazing quality of course.
