This post is not accurate because one month, one user can only send to another user a maximum 50 merit, not more, so dumping 100 merit on one post is impossible.
Are you sure about this? That someone can't merit a single post more than 50 merit.
There is no limit to how much you can merit a single post,
but there is a limit to how much you can merit any user each month. You can see a post that deserves even more and decide to merit the post 50 merit each month.
There is no limit to how much merit a single post can receive.
limit of 100 merit to 1 post.Edit: There is limit to how much you can send in a post but you can send more than 50 merit each month for total of two to sum it up to 100 maximum per post.. thanks to LoyceV for the correction.
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.
It's true that those who are trying to rank up are the ones who care so much about merit, but that does not mean that it ends there. As long as the person is contributing positively, they definitely should be expecting to be rewarded for their efforts.
