Do you guys think it is viable?
How many hours do people spend here a week to earn merits?
and than you receive only (max) $100 a week?
Participating in a signatory campaign is an added bonus for every member who is a quality poster and the amount of merits received does not go the same way with the time interval spent each week by week, we have to understand this, why everyone should participate here is because they have the minds for bitcoin and are willing to contribute to the development of it, and when such opportunities like campaigns come in, they benefited not by how far they have spent, but by the quality of what they have delivered to the forum and merits is one of the means to view such.
Thank you for pointing this out. The amount of merits one earn isn't actually a function of how long or how often they have been here. Although, it is somehow related but not totally dependent.
this person earned more than 200 merits within 24hrs, while there are people who have been here for years and are still newbies or jr member. Just a single act of EZ0010 earned him merits and good reputation having just made only 5 posts. As you can see, he is no longer active here and he didn't come for signature campaign. If he did come because of signature campaign, he would have quickly built his activity and join campaign. The best way to go here is to be natural.
