Please do not do this anymore in this forum, in any board. This could make you harder to earn merits as some (big number) high ranked members do not like this kind of merit begging attitude and they will ignore your account. This is a warning for everyone here.

Merit source is not some permanent post that once elected , you will have the privilege for years. If they do not assign merits or are inactive, their posts may be transferred to other active senior members. I will never doubt the intentions of admin of this forum though lack of time might be a problem for him while handling this.

You will not have sMerit, not merit. For second question, yes, you will not have sMerit until someone decided to give you a total of 2 merits thus making you have 1 sMerits.

Merit will not decreased, only sMerit is decreased after you send some to other members.

No there is no distribution for every high ranks/merit users. However, there is some selected users called sources (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=merit;stats=sources), their number for the moment is 79, who generate 17750 sMerit every month and distribute it to other users.

Hi guys, do you plan to change things about the current system ? because i think there is a lot of things to change to keep this good idea alive.

Stop this, please.
You will never be ranked up to Member rank if you keep such negative approach.
Your thread contributed nothing to the topic, which will let you down (not receive merit point at any odds).

That's also a shitpost because it doesn't make any sense in English. Please stick to your local board until you have improved enough to write a coherent sentence.

thanks for the explanation I am new here and still have to learn to contribute to this forum

Here you can find a little bit more detailed information too, might help:

I would think that theymos would be able to intervene in the merit system in such a way to perhaps cause some smerit spending incentives, at least incentives that merit sources are spending a large majority of their merits every 30 days, and therefore, the trend should be able to gravitate towards the supra 5k per week distribution arena, perhaps?

Merit sources in themselves appear to have about 4.6k merits per week to distribute, but there might be several merit sources that are not distributing their source smerits, and perhaps theymos might reconsider their merit source status or at least the quantity of their source, if they are not willing or able to spend their source smerits in 30 days...

The other aspect that could cause the spending of smerits per week to gravitate up (or to stablize), and a bit higher than you suggest, coinlocket$, is that theymos could also decide to increase the quantity of source smerits - which he already suggested was in his tentative plans at the time that he implemented the merit system, even though he might be disinclined to rush into such changes without assessing how what is already is in place is playing out in terms of sources spending their smerits and then the inclinations of merit recipient to spend a portion of their smerits too (including the ongoing reservoir of initially distributed smerits that may still constitute a pretty decent sized number of unspent smerits).

By the way, regarding the initial distribution, there may be some members who have not really learned about the merit system, and I have actually seen some posts from some members who seem to think that a post must be eligible for a nobel prize before they will part with their smerits.. hahahhahha  Perhaps some of the thinking will lighten up a bit regarding what some individuals perceive is required before they send out some of their smerit love.
