I understand what you meant. But maybe it would be good if you can message the merit sources at times and include your post in it. But this might as well be considered not appropriate by the merit source. If we have more merit sources, I guess things will change for good. I hope Igebotz will read this. There may be some favouritism but I noticed he is still sending merit good because I followed his merit history. I do see some of your post like the last topic you make on this board, it is worth merit on local board but I am surprised that no merit source merited it.

Directly messaging a merit source for Merit to certain posts doesn’t actually sit well with me because many will be spamming his PM for merit source, so that’s not a suggestion that sit with me.

Then relatively about having extra merit source I think there is absolutely no second thought about that, it should be priority before even considering the merit increase for the existing sources and my reasons are Theymos hardly does that, we all know how long that Brain Boss has been advocating for this and it still hasn’t been able to get. Other reason is that more merit source means more merit circulation, because no matter how we put it there is going to be a little less awareness of other quality posts by just one merit source, while I can’t call the current source been biased I will rather say they have had eyes for people they feel like are quality posters and that’s a thing on not just Nigeria local board but the entire forum at large. So all of us are all selfish, and that can be seen from the threads submitted to get merited

We all can actually keep asking for a thread to be created where posts can be shared but that’s not a going to totally solve the problem with merit source we have here because they will still select those posts worthy of merit to them, but having multiple sources will help spread it out.

Last I think the way the forum is parading the local board with each and everyone going to submit their applications although base on forum rules is valid still doesn’t make sense to me, the timing in some applications makes it look like a competition which doesn’t help the local board, there should be collective stands instead of this spread agitation for several people
