I am not a merit source, so I do not have a monthly quota of merit available. I can only give earned sMerit.
Frequent "congratulations" bump posts made me pay less attention to the thread and that is the biggest reason why I am less merit-active here. I already wrote about it earlier, but obviously, the need for congratulations is great, but I find it boring to read.

@examples this also makes me wonder if people just bump into a thread without going through the OP about the rules of a thread. People can just rank up without excessive congratulatory replies and announcements but it's just very obvious that people are so adamant because I have witnessed several occasions in which you said about this congratulatory replies by both users who have achieved their next ranks and others that keeps spamming the thread after a user must have ranked up but yet they keep on to disregard your complaints.

Anyway I feel the OP might be too occupied with other responsibilities hence the reasons why he is not watching the activities of this thread but I hope he makes out time for this thread so that his motives of creating the thread will not be defeated.
