Secondly - we have the activities, but unfortunately the post quality hasn't been the same, I barely come across good posts these days and sometimes I'm forced to rollover my monthly allocation.

Your opinion is valid @Moderator but for the fact that you barely come across good posts for meriting do not mean that good posts are not in the local board, it could just be that due to your numerous busy schedules, on and outside the forum might make you not navigate the local board thoroughly to see ''good posts'' as you said. There are high ranked members that are active in the local board and some of them have even shared their concerns on why their post are not merited despite their efforts in keeping the local board rolling. Does it also mean their posts are not merit worthy?
I have already given a suggestion in my previous reply here that a thread should be created where every member of the local board can report quality posts they meet in the local board as this will save you the stress of making extra efforts in navigating through the local board in search of quality posts for meriting.
It is sad to see that your merit allocation monthly is being carried over when the local board is lacking behind in merit distribution/circulation and complaints have already been made to this regards. I also urge local board members to improve more on their post quality as that is what defines the introduction of the merit system.
Note: I am not in anyway trying to question your merit distribution but am just interested in ways we can assist you in fishing out quality posts for meriting in order to make it less tedious for you. What do you think?
