Perhaps you seem to be a very angry soul for reasons left with you! Buddy ever since I've joined this forum I have been recieving merits from different merit source and I have not known anyone who isn't doing his or her job as a merit source.
Meriting post is subjective and what you think is merit deserving might not be merit deserving for others. so if you can't bag a merit for any post of yours or others who you think are not getting merits probably that they post isn't authentic enough for merit source to award such post a merit.
The only ones we can really trust are Cryptobrainboss and Mia Chloe, and funny enough, they’re not even merit sources.
Cryptopreneurbrainboss is a merit source only Mia Chloe isn't a merit source. if you don't know you should probably ask to be enlightened.
A few weeks after Theymos gave us a merit source and local board moderator, the guy shared a few merits for a while, then disappeared. Since then, no one knows how he distributes his merits. Is it a cartel? Feels like it.
I think all my time in the Naija local board I have seen Igebotz award merits to posts that are very much deserving, he has been doing his job in my opinion.
You should try to make quality post that are undeniably merit deserving and surely you will receive merits for it.
Additionally, there are several merit assistance threads in the forum and it says if you find any post that you think deserves merit and is not merited you can drop them here why not do the job and send the links of posts that seems to you under merited or not merited.
