It has been a long time since theymos has accepted a merit source application if I'm correct. So, I don't think it's going to happen anytime soon.
Anyone know exactly how long it's been? Theymos seems to be so tight-lipped about anything to do with the merit system that I don't even have a sense of whether it's doing just fine or if it's at risk of falling apart (though I don't think it's anywhere close to the latter).
When I look at the ranking-up pipeline thread and the one that lists members who've recently ranked up, I do get a sense that we could probably do with a few more merit sources, especially ones that can target the local boards--but I've been saying that same damn thing for at least a year now, and whatever Theymos might be thinking I assume he doesn't agree.
Props for organizing the application threads, OP.
From my view if those that are already merits source can spread across the forum including some local boards then I doubt if he will accept all the pending applications, like few our brothers listed above had applied and in our local we are really lacking merits the one we had is not enough for him to go through all quality post he comes across and yet saying his allocation is too minimal and he needs an increased to be able to spread more across few post.
