Apa ada yang menyadari jika setiap akun sudah ditambahkan merit point?
Ini dilakukan oleh theymos untuk mengatasi para spammer yang ada di forum ini.
Merit itu seperti point yang kita dapat dari setiap post kita, jadi kalau post kita dirasa berguna/membantu banyak orang, maka orang lain akan memberikan kita beberapa merit point ke akun kita.

Kemarin theymos juga sudah memblokir signature link untuk jr,member

Jr Members can no longer have signature links.

DAN KENAPA GUE BILANG GOODBYE SPAMMERS? karena merit point ini juga menentukan apakah level akun kalian bisa naik atau tidak ke level berikutnya (selain activity)

A couple of ideas that have been floating around in my head:

1. To attain ranks above Member, you'd have to earn some number of merit points. Merit points would be awarded in a monthly vote on best posts of the previous month, with various measures (TBD) to prevent gaming of the vote. Winning merit points might also come with a BTC prize.

So, goodbye para spammers Grin

Akun lu tidak akan naik level jika tidak ada orang yang memberi merit point sampai batas tertentu baru bisa naik level

Apa Merit point bisa berkurang? Kita tunggu nanti jawabannya...

Merit ini seperti berapa like yang kita dapat dari setiap postingan kita

In addition to activity, everyone now has a merit score, and you need both a certain activity level and a certain merit score in order to reach higher member ranks. The required scores are:

Rank	Required activity	Required merit
Brand new	0	0
Newbie	1	0
Jr Member	30	0
Member	60	10
Full Member	120	100
Sr. Member	240	250
Hero Member	480	500
Legendary	Random in the range 775-1030	1000

You get merit points when someone sends you some for one of your posts. Additionally, when someone sends you merit points, half of those points can be sent by you to other people.

Certain users are designated as "merit sources". They can create new merit out of nothing, up to a limited number per month (which differs per source). I will not be posting a definitive list of merit sources (so that people don't bug them too much), though you'll soon figure out who they are if you pay attention.

There is currently no such thing as a "demerit". I'm hoping that the positive merits alone will be fine. I could add demerits pretty easily later on if necessary, though.

I'm hoping that this system will increase post quality by:
- Forcing people to post high-quality stuff in order to rank up. If you just post garbage, you will never get even 1 merit point, and you will therefore never be able to put links in your signature, etc.
- Highlighting good posts with the "Merited by" line.

While we will not be directly moderating this, I encourage people to give merit to posts that are objectively high-quality, not just posts that you agree with.

The forum ranking system is a bit complicated now... It'd be nice if someone made an infographic explaining activity and merit.

If you want to be a merit source:

Collect TEN posts that have not received nearly enough merit for how good they are, and post quotes for them all in a new Meta thread.

Trivia:

For current members, your initial merit score is equal to the minimum required to your rank. Of that, a certain amount (less than the usual half) is spendable. The spendable amount was calculated based on your current rank and the number of activity points you earned in the last year. A Legendary member who hasn't posted in the last year would still be Legendary, but would not have any spendable merit.

If someone sends you 1 merit, the 0.5 sMerit is not wasted; it is just not shown until you get another merit point.

Bagus.. Tapi apa post dari reply dapat merit poin? Maaf kalau sudah ada yang menanyakan.
