The forum has different sections, including local boards, and sometimes people get merit in their local boards, which is enough for them to rank up, and once you have ranked up, there is a chance for you to earn through the signature campaign because some of them allow posts in local boards and gambling sections, which have nothing to do with intensive Bitcoin knowledge.
I know someone can rank up in their local boards, but ranking up is not the main issue. What about the key knowledge of the main purpose of the forum? Even if someone comes here because of a signature campaign, such a person needs to learn about bitcoin, and for someone who wants to be a good poster on the forum, I don't think the knowledge that has been acquired from their local boards will be enough for that person to participate well in his/her signature campaign. My reason is that local boards do not have enough topics of discussion that someone will be posting every day, and if you want to be a good poster, you can't always be active on your local board. You need other sections too.
For the gambling board, there is nothing new, so you can see that someone who wants to do well and wants to be a good poster too must engage in the main section of the forum. Not just local boards and gambling; however, there are some posts we do not only because of signature campaigns. And most of them cannot be done on the local boards, And gambling section.
