I'm new here. What's all about this merit count? How is it earned? I'm assuming it's linked to the quality/usefulness of your posts/replies? Their originality maybe? What are usually the subjects you'd get the more merit for posting about?
Alot has been said by other users, but however one of the strategy that has landed me into gaining the few merits that I have till date is that I deem it necessary to look out for threads arn boards that are been visited frequently by merits source where I try my possible best in contributing meaningfully.
