Ihub didn't call them Merit Marks, bro. Ihub says they are to keep track of boards and users. Personmark Exchange Board has allowed me to meet some of the best people on Ihub. You are deff top 3 my friend. I look at my marks as Friend Marks. Ones that aren't are on the Personmark Exchange Board BAN List. Most are proud to be there too. Some asked to be there. LOL
