Bitcoin Forum

Just curious, what does it take to go from Newbie to Jr Member status?  Is it measured on your number of posts or hours logged in the forum?  I like this forum, there are some pretty smart people and lots of good advice, I don't post much so just don't want to be a newbie forever since I don't make that many posts..

Exactly.
You now need 30 activity to be jr member.

The way activity is calculated can be found here.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=178608.0

So I need 30 posts?  :o

Activity is different to posts. See the above post for an explanation on activity.

To get 30 activity, you need both 1 and 2:
1. at least 30 posts
2. at least 2 "two-week periods" in which you've posted since your registration


So, yes, you need 30 posts, but not only that.

You need to be at 30 activity which is about 6 weeks of activity of posting and at least 30 posts. also admin said before there was a bug in promoting users from newbies to jr.members after the forum requirements but not sure if it's still the same now.

Im at 6 days of activity. It updates very 3 weeks, So you will have to wait a bit longer champ.  ;)

i think you need 30 posts to go from Newbie to Jr Member status but not sure

Not only that.
You can refer to the above posts for the exact requirement for different membergroups.

i have tried this doesnt work out

Thanks for the info. I will take it under consideration

Good information guys thanks!

What do you mean by that?

thank you :))

you need 1 month time and 3x posts...
one post per day could be done as I rmb

lol you are bumping old thread.


I think the OP didn't active again here.

just post one post per day and you're done no need to worry too much about it and not need to hurry for it

try to avoid from time to time to post in the off-topic section, better to spread your posting in many section

more than likely just sig spam judging from how hes been doing that a bit in his last posts. if it gets too bad then just report him and move on.

I'm in the same situation like you. I'm a jr. member because I don't posts a lot. I just posted during my free time.

thanks. this actually helped.

This is great information for newbies, thanks.

it will base on activity you have before you can be a jr.member  or other rank  check this thread to understand more about bitcointalk ranking https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=178608.0 .

Thanks for this post. It is very useful to me

I have been signed up on bitcointalk for a while but didnt really post much at all, however due to deeponion and the community spirit, i became very active and i went from newbie to member in just a few days.

Same here...work from 7AM to 7PM, got some family life and only wanna post something meaningful and not post because I need xx amount of posts,
if you are new to crypto you learn a lot from others (by reading), when you progress you can share your knowledge imho

I was thinking about just the same thing. I've been around here for more than 2 yrs but still a noobie as I have only 1 post (excluding this one).

Your account age doesn't matter if you've only posted 10 times total. You need to post many times, in multiple 2-week time frames. Specific details above.

Multiple 2 weeks..Oh boy...So we need 6 weeks to be a junior member 14 week one 14 week 2 registered activity and on the 6th week hopefully have more than 30 activity to become a junior member...Also thus total logged in time matter?

Yes, exactly. They add 14 points for every two week period that you're active - but your total activity is never more than the number of posts that you have.

To get over 30 activity, you need to be active in at least three 2-week periods, AND have at least 30 posts

So if you posted 6 times in one two-week period you'd have only 6 - you'd need to wait another 4 weeks AND post another 24 times.

If you posted 6 times over 3 months, once every two weeks, it would be a bit different. You'd still have only 6 points, but if you posted 24 times you'd jump up to 30 points the same day.

AFAIK, time logged in is meaningless.

After all this time, still come back to this post from Google search.

I have been a member for a little while also. I read a lot but I dot post a lot. This means no activity. I figured time would be a factor in my membership level. Glad to know how it really works!

Thanks!  Very usefull.
It makes sense to have somehing to do with time and also posting, otherwise the "account" serial producers would flood the forum with useless messages just to get upgraded...

I am sure that you already know since you are now a jr. member but for the sake of explaining it, it is exactly 30 activities. 30 activities is obtain by the number of activities you have, but it doesn't mean you can post all you want and gain all activities you want. Activities has a limit, a maximum of 14 activities can only be obtained in2 weeks. That is like 1 post per day.

The time of log in doesn't really matter. But it just really takes time to rank. Just be patient and everything will be worth it at the end.

Being patient is the key to crypto.  ;D

Thanks for the information but my part of the story is a bit interesting where I came in to look here as a guest from past a year just to see news about bitcoin untill recently I signed up just to see how it is being a member and now I am really enjoying to explore more things. Hopefully, I wish to get on the next boat asap :)

I am a member for 1 month already.  And i have 14 activity post. Can i post 15 post in a day so i became jr member already?

ops! didnt know about this

This is the information i was looking for the long time! Thank you all so much! :)

I have spent so much time here without realising that you need to post as well. Assuming I have been active for 30 days without posting can I just post 30 times ? I doubt it will work

I think you can only get max 14 activity in a 2 week period. But worth a shot anyway

Very useful thread.

What counts as a post? does a reply count, are there any character requirements?

Thanks for the info guys.

Is the time constraint still in place?

I think there's an unspoken rule where you have to pledge your soul to Satoshi Nakamoto in order to become a member. Don't tell anyone I told you, because it's really a secret.

This is the requirements

Brand New   0 posts
Newbie           newmember
Jr. Member   activity: 30
Member           activity: 60
Full Member   activity: 120
Sr. Member   activity: 240
Hero Member   activity: 480

New members can start posting as soon as they join. and every 14 days the activity will get updated.
Start posting atleast one quality post everyday, then you can

I am patiently participating in threads where I can add value even though I have limited time to read and post to eventually gain member status.  :)

I just clocked 4 hours and I’m still at newbie. What’s happening!???

Guys, I've just came across a great article when it comes to posting averages and different stats in regards to posting on Bitcointalk.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3320052.msg34678855#msg34678855-

What made my day was to learn that newbies don't post like crazy :)

Activity is designed in a way that you need not post daily for it to rise. You can complete all 14 activity in  a particular activity period by making the 14 posts in a day. You can even post more and these will be counted when you make at least one post in ext activity period.

Brand New   0 posts
Newbie   (none)
Jr. Member   activity: 30
Member   activity: 60
Full Member   activity: 120
Sr. Member   activity: 240
Hero Member   activity: 480

but this activity in one day i think is not counting, you need to post everyweek or day i don't remember to get up your activity, for example if you will post 480 post in one day only 30 will be counting maybe, i don't know how much but it's the principe

Thanks for great information

Newbie to Jr. Member i think you need common sense
Jr. Member to Member you need merit and humility + humour
I'm still evaluating what does someone need to rank up....in the higher ranking..

May you explain why your status is still junior? I see that you having value 69 at the moment.

I cant say it because i am a newbie too and unexperienced in it too.

It is because he has 0 merit, recently the forum has incorporated a merit system that goes along the activity for the member-level requirements. 


it's simply explained in this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2818350.0

As I like to say "You need to sharpen your common sense" by I saw your profile turning to Jr. now...
But to answer your question it is common sense you need!!!
Common sense to read the rules and you'll know what's the answer is.

Isn't this outdated? I have 70 activity but is still at Jr. Member

I need to post more then, lol  ;D ;D ;D

I think you should post 30 previous activities that match topics like the following rules
Post is the number of your posts
Activity is the number of your posts in the biweekly period (14 days).
eg 2 weeks I just post 8, then the activity will only increase 8.
then I Post again until 20, my activity so 14!
Why 14? why not 20 ??
because the addition of activity only increased by 14 every 2 weeks

Actually,not a number of posts,but number of activity. As i know,if we reach the activity 30,we will automatically ranked up to jr.member,and will takes a month of postings,not more than two posts every day.

It will not necessarily take a  month to become a Jr member. It can be done in 16 days days if you register and start posting one day before an activity period.

Me too, takes quite a while to change that...

For reference, I'm 22 hours in with 22 posts. Is the 14 day period (when they update your profile) a set date in reference to your account, in reference to the website's policy, or in reference to your last post?

Thank you. This was informative.

Well, after 11 months here reading, you've still to grasp that not just post count has to be considered, but merit and interest/quality of posts. Your first four posts (all your current history) are not good examples of how to go around this forum really….

I feel like my posts are getting deleted now that the two weeks are over. Is that normal? ???

Often when my postsare deleted I receive an email letting me know.

Usually posts are not deleted but maybe you’re making a mistake thinking that your activity is only your posts?!

I think it is normal for people's post to get deleted by moderators or because it is reported by others, especially if they always made a low quality posts in several bad quality thread. Now ask yourself a question, do you think your post is of a high quality post?

I think you have to cross 28 activity to become a Jr member, and thus usually takes four weeks.
It could take less, as the merit window opens every two weeks, and you could join in close to the end and still get promoted.
But you need to make 14 posts in two weeks and same in the next two weeks.

If the whole thread gets deleted you won't receive a message about your deleted post. It's normal to have your posts deleted it means that the thread you posted on is a low quality/duplicate one even though you've made a constructive reply.

Not exactly 14 posts is required because of potential activity. You could post once every two weeks and still reach Jr member by posting more than 14 on the next activity date to get the other 13 that you've missed. If one of your 14 posts that you've made in the last 2 weeks gets deleted you should get a potential activity.
