No, there is no rule for giving merit in this thread. I have seen that by posting various merit records, whoever is mentioned can provide 1,2 merit if he is happy. Again, I have seen that many people do not give it, it is their matter.

Qualifying for this thread isn't a big deal, so recording and congratulating them is excellent. I noticed your qualifying record at 4444 while on the forum, so I posted here referring to you.
