This isn't fair and probably destroys the main idea of merit system on this forum.
The main idea behind merit system is to stop shitposters ever reaching higher ranks, and not to stop decent members from ranking.
I can't call decent members to those who use the support of locals on local board to rank up and then post shit posts on international boards in English language.
Am I the only one who sees this tendency? There are a lot of people who post shit posts but have lots of merits, then I check their profiles and 95% of merits come from local boards. This problem really exists, this is a loophole that shitposters use.
