Even if everybody for the local board turn out to be merit source eh no mean say all the quality post go they merited, to send merit to quality post nah base on if the source get time to notice those qualify post or if eh still get enough merit to share, all of us fit help one another for this board we no need to be source first before you go send merit to another person if you see quality post way deserve merit you fit send merit to am if you get Smerit.
To get merit source enough for local board make sense, but if the few way they the board get enough allocation on a monthly basis and then they active them for serve pass where 100 turn out to be source.
I like your talk Wella. E make sense. I go just talk from three points wey u raise. U talk about time, if the merit source go get time to notice the post in the first place. And that's just it, 'TIME'. Sometimes, he can get busy with other things within the forum or outside the forum, plus going through ALL replies & comments on a thread no be come chop. Because that's the way he can notice a quality post and then merit. So if in no see am, that means say no matter the quality of that post, no merit for the person, Unless others with Smerit help out. To solve this, he needs more hands, just like someone said earlier, at least 1 or 2 more, e go help to increase persons wey fit send Merit with the mindset of meritocracy and then lessen the much load on him and also encourage members in the board the more.
Secondly, another point you made is that when the Meris source sees a quality post, he may not also be able to merit such post if he doesn't have enough merit(maybe exhausted merit allocation for the week). Therefore, to avoid or better still, to reduce such frequent happenings, merit allocation weekly for Merit sources should be increased at least to meet up a bit. I know the reason for restrictions is to avoid merit abuse. But then, an increase should be considered.
And finally, make we no dey hoard or they stingy with our Smerit for here. Sometimes, na we they do ourselves. How u go see person make better quality post, u read am finish, Waka pass even wen u get sendable merit, like say the two of ona dey drag something or ona dey competition. E no good Na. I believe the reason for sendable merit is for you to have a say and also assist the merit sources in distributing merit, because, at anytime, you fit stumble on quality post and merit source never see am yet. So if all of us the wait for only merit source to give merit, that means say we no go grow at all. My dear, 1 Merit can go a long way in encouraging someone to push ahead the more oo
