I started on May 2 2013 so when will I be senior?

You will be senior on May 1, 2014 provided that you will post on that date.

The date you started has nothing to do with it.  You are senior member at 240 activity.

Once you hit 240 activity, that should be in ~10 days

Once you get activity 240 you will become senior member

long way to go  :)

No only 11 - 12 days.

less than 2 weeks now if you post by then

Thanks for this topic.

lol! that's the attitude to take, soon you'll be sr.member as well :) to be more precise in exactly 365 and 2 hours if you keep posting at least a minimum of one post per 2 weeks

2 activity to go. You'll become a senior.  :)

Activity updates on the 29th so post then and you'll be a Snr Member.

Pretty much on the transition line as well although you had some inactive periods because I started August

Not sure if this is outdated info now, but:

It's still relevant, though it confuses many haha. There's an in depth thread trying to explain it here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=495948.0

I think you could become senior member in 1 or 2 week time

I started on 10 May 2013 and became Sr. Member many months ago. ;)

Not confusing at all ^^ you need to be familiar with some math signs ^^ :

I'll explain the formula for those who didn't get it

Time*14 with time = number of two-week periods in which you've posted since your registration, so what does this means, if you have posted during a two week period you get a 1 time , so you'll get 1x14 let's imagine someone registered a month ago with active posting (minimum of one post per two week) so a month is 4 weeks, so the guys will get on this side of the equation 2x14=28 if he only posted in one of the two 2 weeks periode of the month periode he'll get only 1x14=14

Now what does Min(time*14,posts) means, it just means that activity will equal the minimum value between the number of posts and time*14, if we take the example we used above with time*14=28, if the guy posted only twice during that months period his post count would be 2 so the minimum between 28 and 2 is of course 2 and thus 2 will be activity, on the other hand if they guy posted lets 1K post during that month, it will be 28 and 1K and the minimum would 28 instead as it is the min

It's confusing to some because people assume the two week period starts when they sign up or they don't realise one activity point doesn't necessarily come with each post.

The formula is accurate, altho way to complicated and just does more harm than good when linking to people asking about activity, haha.

I started November 20. When i'll be Sr. Member? i wasn't always active from the beginning but now I am. After I came back I got some activity in one day so after next 14 days  how many activity should i get?

You will get 14 in every coming 2 week period you post...

Its already explained at the link more concisely, but youre explanation just makes it more confusing lol.

Indeed. I know that I get 14 activity every 2 weeks, and that's all I need to know! :)

So it takes about 1 year to become a Senior Member if you visit the website a few times every 2 weeks

no it takes 240 days if you comment consistantly you need to comment and be active at least one during that two week periode and your post count should be higher than 240 (the easy part)

I want to be a senior member :(

Maybe I can pay someone to post for me while I'm at work.

Why? It won't matter. Read the thread. As long as your post count is higher than your activity you only need to post once every two week period. You can only get a max of 14 points in those two weeks.

ZZzzzzzZ

I wonder how long people are still gonna respond to those statements, there's gotta be a thousand posts in this section explaining activity to one newbie after the other. Gee wiz.

Why you want to be senior ? :D you want to brag in work that you rule bitcointalk forum ? :D (just joking)

Please prefer quality posts over quantity ;) and then you will be skilled and popular sr member ;)

Its based on the registration.

The weeks is about at least 10 weeks.
