There are many things that make someone to participate actively in the bitcointalk, and everyone actively involve in one thing or the the other. The following are some of the Immune Boosters in the forum.
the day I got my one merit, I was excited to participate more and today I am active to some extent and likewise to some newbies who received their first merit in the forum and the excitement that follows.
I might make a mistake on it, I am thinking that it is the highest because most bitcoiners are here to discuss their investment on bitcoin both on the bear and the bull market in the forum. The forum gave them update on all movement from different boards. And this forum nwas created because of bitcoin so any other thing is added onto it.
this is one of the immune booster where users participate to get extra bitcoin and add it to their investment.

If not the above energy boosters in the forum, many users would have used their energy in another profitable platforms or using here as a chatroom. Is there any other energy or immune booster?
I got on the forum before I knew about signature campaign and merit system. As much as I want my merit to increase, I came here to learn about bitcoin. I didn't know what the forum entails before I joined, I thought it's just a place to learn and talk about bitcoin. It was after I joined and I started reading and that's when I got to understand the forum. As a matter of fact I'm still getting to know about the whole forum. So I'll say my "immune booster " is first my curiosity before the things you mentioned because it was out of curiosity I registered to this forum.
