One thing i still don't understand about the idea here is if the suggestion is made applicable to all ranks, secondly, regarding members, does the suggestion also applies only to the airdropped or inactive forum accounts or everyone of us, because from what i know, any member could go being inactive for a while and then feels like coming back to the forum as they pleases, deranking them may go way too far because of inactivities, except the approach is directed towards the airdropped merit members.
The suggestion will not affect inactive members because it’s based on post to merit ratio. The OP is suggesting a de rank if user reach a certain post count that doesn’t get merit.
Affected user are those posting on board that has less merit distribution such as altcoin board, gambling board and other local board that has no merit source/low merit circulation.
We all know that Bitcoin technical, WO and few local board with huge number of merit source have the highest merit circulation. It will purge those user that is posting outside this board.
