Too many threads about merit discussion on the META board lately. it's now looking as if there is so much uniqueness about the merit system. I think legendary members wouldn't care much about merit anymore since they have achieved the highest rank of the forum because irrespective of the fact that merit is for quality posts, they won't care much about it anymore.
However, looking at the comment of Theymos, he doesn't wish that merit allocations should expire without it being given to quality posts monthly. The forum needs more growth and it can only be achieved when every system of the forum is active and functional of which the merit system is not an exception...
I have discovered that those who solve problems in the forum or makes posts in the technical boards, earns merits faster than those who makes posts in other boards of the forum. The merit system is not perfect but i think it is still serving its motive (post quality) somehow.
OP, the decision of what happens next about the merit system is left for Theymos to decide, there's is nothing we say here that will make any changes except a vote is being set on how users want the merit sources to work.
