You're an extremely good writer, no taking that away from you.

I merited what you wrote, but mainly for points 1, 2 and 3. I don't exactly agree with the points after that, but I can definitely see why you wrote them, and I can see some value, also.

May I ask one thing of you, please, and it's just to preserve your own credibility....remove your sidebar post. The "Thank you for all merits" shit.

I realise this may be ironic on a level I don't get, but it undermines your whole post. Lose it.

EDIT: You're cynical on a level I'm not, but I can't really fault you for that. Will watch your posts with interest.

PMing a DT to ask for free merit so you can make money? Really?

Where you really doomed this account though, was with the retaliatory feedback.

Now, friend, that neg is NEVER coming off. And you deserve it.

God bless to you too. /s

Shitpost of the week. Christ almighty, at least TRY to hide it, will you?

Thank you all for the great answers.

I'll lock this thread now, and keep reporting the junk, I guess

Nice. Here are some that I sent my sMerit to, because they helped me:

Not everything I have merited but a list of ones that I revisited.

Hope this helps!

I have also. And I know it's not a job that bring friends. My motivation here is the integrity of the Beginner's board, not to make new internet friends. And I am not affected by new internet enemies either.

That's a bit disheartening to be honest :/

I report crap as I see it, and have 100% accuracy to date. But I don't have 15 hours per day to put into just that activity. The hours that I can give would be (hopefully) useful, but if it's a numbers game....meh :/

Thanks for the reply anyhow, Og, appreciate it. I'll leave this out there. Maybe it'll be considered.

So I have been active here for a while now, and because I am not that technically-inclined, I tend to spend most of my time on the newbie board. Learning. I hope that the posts I have made there have contributed, and help people.

I raised a stink a while back about the splashing about of red paint by DT2, and since then (not from my post - I was only one of many), we've seen the introduction of merit. It's a great move forward, but we may not yet be in the final iteration of the system. Looking back at the motivations of DT2, I'm starting to really see their point.

Unfortunately, we're facing three issues on the Beginner's board, as follows:
- People who still don't know about the merit system, and are posting crap to rush to Jr.
- People who DO know about it, and are posting low-quality copy-pastas to get merit
- People who have figured out how to trade it, and are abusing the hell out of it

I take exception to this. We want more people involved in crypto to help the idea disseminate, and to raise support and awareness. For the mercenary, we want them to start buying in to raise the market cap.

But on a practical level, this is the number one landing pad for new users of crypto globally. And they should be set straight, immediately. For example, if abusers of the board system are on page 1, this raises associations that the entire idea of crypto is being abused, and is therefore a crook's game. That's not good.

I don't know how to apply, but I'm putting it out there publically that I would be willing to put my own time (after work) into moderating the Beginner's board, and would be vigilant about junk being posted, as well as merit-trading groups. I'm not bloodthirsty, I just care about this community, and I don't want it ruined. My approach would be to warn first, ban later. But you may be sure that there would be plenty of bans.

Is there a formal way to apply?

Nullius posts good stuff, is clearly intelligent, and a definite asset to the community.

Until someone calls him out, that is.

Unfortunately, he's unable to take criticism, and shelters behind this weird Jane Austin meets Carl Jung persona, which makes him irritating and patronising in the extreme.

I'm not saying the merits haven't been earned - they have been. He's contributed.

I'm just saying that this guy isn't God, and don't for one second be afraid to argue if you see an error. He won't react well, but who cares?

A contributor, but not a pleasant one. His problem, not ours.

You can close the thread by using the lock option in the bottom left corner. You might need to edit the OP to see this option (I can't remember, sorry).

Glad you got helped.

Another interesting question, should you wish to explore it, is how do you cash out without ID verification. I'll leave you to check that one out

Yes. It's fine to bump a useful message (even your own), but bear in mind that the rules of this forum say you shouldn't do it more than once every 24 hours, and you should delete previous bumps (to keep the thread clean).

You're so lucky I'm not a mod. You'd be shot into outer space.

It's this kind of shit that makes the front page of most of these boards a horrific experience to trawl through.

Last time I bump, I promise, but seems relevant today.

Merit abuse is being monitored, and there's quite a bit of red paint splashing around.

In the mean time, if you have posts you think deserve merit, let us know, or bump them. Beware of bumping crap though.

Dhanems, is there something wrong with you that you need to quote other posts in the thread with no reply?

If you're trying to bump it without breaking rules, you're not being very smart about things.

Other people have asked you for more information. Provide it, or stop the spam. It's that simple.

Username checks out.

Not enough information to help. If you're talking about the address you used for your bounty spam campaigning, then it's never had any Eth. Only "EthLend" tokens, whatever they are.

Is it a different address? Can you share the transaction IDs? The (public) wallet address?

3 boards now, and you haven't posted anything except "amg woz hax0red!".

You're damn lucky I'm not a mod. I'd ban you in one microsecond for this incredibly stupid necro.

Idiot.

I think that what happened here is a copy and paste from google translate, maybe.

The post itself is not crap, but could use re-writing.

OP, if you want to PM me, I'll try to rewrite for you, if you like? I'll PM you back the result, and you can start a new thread.

Open offer.

I'm going to disagree with this.

While Nullius has contributed to the community, especially on the more technical aspects, his/her approach is patronising to the extreme. Not a very nice person, at ALL. You don't have to be like this. Again, as iphmp159 suggested, you should read the post history. You will find more in there to hurt than help you though.

Judge for yourself.
