Hi everyone! I'm still new here and trying to improve my post quality. I’ve read a lot about the merit system and understand it's important for ranking up, but I’m not sure what exactly makes a post “merit-worthy.” Is it about length, research, or timing?
Substance! A type that conveys a thought, or helps establish a functionality on a specific area of discussion. Bonus tips would be well-constructed writeups with punctuations in their proper positions to ease reading.
Well, another big bonus would be the boards where those post are made. Just realized that a greater amount of your post are made in the altcoin discussion (that's the only reason I decided to write on this thread as similar topics have been discussed severally in the past). Don't try to move too fast, but don't be idle completely -- it's better to allow yourself learn through the process than rush, IMO.
I’d love to know what type of content usually earns merit and what mistakes I should avoid as a beginner. Any tips or advice would be appreciated!
