I smiled and told him that it wasn't just the merit that drove me, but my ambition to learn and earn from Bitcoin talk. before we departed, he told me that he was going to login into his old account and see if he can earn some merits.

so I'm just sharing this story here, as an advice for the newbies and every one here on Bitcoitalk who finds it difficult to attain merits and rankup.

Move it to the beginners' section.

I can't say much because I'm still learning, but it appears that you are more knowledgeable with bitcoin than I am.

Expecting nothing and doing your best at the same time yields the best outcomes.

"off-topic"- Consider those who started with bitcoin and held it until it reached the ATH; if they had expected it to climb to a particular number, they would have sold at $150; similarly, if you publish a post expecting to gain merit, you will be disappointed.
