2382  Other / Meta / FAQ: Everything you need to know about forum 'activity, account ranks and merit on: January 16, 2018, 12:24:24 PM
The way activity is calculated is complicated to understand, but simply put you can only get 14 activity points every two week period. This is basically all you need to know but I will explain the intricacies and technicalities of the system below to avoid any confusion:

★ You can only get 14 activity points every fortnightly period.
★ The fortnightly periods are fixed and do not start when you sign up.
★ A list of all the dates of the activity periods can be found on this spreadsheet (credit goes to jambola2 for compiling it).
★ You can technically get more than 14 activity in two weeks if you sign up between periods.
★ You only need to make at least one post in each activity period to be able to collect the activity at a later date. For instance, you could make one post in three different periods and you would then have 3 posts and 3 activity, but a potential activity of 42. Once you made the 42 posts you would then have 42 activity but no more. If you made one post in 35 different periods you would then have 35 posts and 35 activity but a potential activity of 480. That means you would be a Junior Member but if you made the full 480 posts you would instantly become a Hero Member.
★ If your post count eclipses your activity by 14 or more then you will only need to make one post in the new period to get the full 14 activity. For instance, your post count is 200 but your activity is only 28. To get another 14 activity you will only need to make one post in the new period and you will then have a total of 42 activity.

Ranks and activity:

Brand New: 0 posts
Newbie: 1-29 activity
Jr. Member: 30-59 activity
Member:   60-119 activity
Full Member: 120-239 activity
Sr. Member: 240-479 activity
Hero Member: 480 activity
Legendary: Somewhere between 775 and 1030 activity

Merit:

In addition to Activity you now need Merit to achieve each rank. The required merit is detailed below:

Brand new: 0
Newbie:   0
Jr Member: 1
Member: 10
Full Member: 100
Sr. Member: 250
Hero Member: 500
Legendary: 1000

Here is a table of the activity periods and time it will take you to achieve each rank:
Code:
1 X 14 = 14
2 X 14 = 28
3 X 14 = 42  ---  Junior. Member (1.5 month)
4 X 14 = 56
5 X 14 = 70  ---  Member (2.5 month)
6 X 14 = 84
7 X 14 = 98
8 X 14 = 112
9 X 14 = 126  --- Full Member (4.5 month)
10 X 14 = 140
11 X 14 = 154
12 X 14 = 168
13 X 14 = 182
14 X 14 = 196
15 X 14 = 210
16 X 14 = 224
17 X 14 = 238
18 X 14 = 252 --- Senior Member (8.5 month)

Activity FAQ:

Why is my activity stuck/not moving?

Because you can only get 14 activity every two week period. You will have to wait until the next period starts to get another 14.

Why has my rank/activity not updated?

It can take up to an hour to update. Just be patient.

Can activity or my rank decrease?

Yes. It can only decrease if you have all the posts you made from a particular period deleted or the threads you posted in trashcanned. If you do it's possible to drop rank until you have enough activity again.

Can I get more than 14 activity in two week period?

No. However, you can technically get more than 14 activity in a fortnight if you sign up in between periods, but you can't get more than 14 activity in a fortnightly period. For instance, if the period starts on a Wednesday and you sign up on Tuesday you can get 14 points on Tuesday and another 14 on Wednesday providing the period has started. You will then have 28 activity points but won't be able to get any more until two weeks' time when the new period starts.

What happens if I miss a period?

Nothing. You just won't get that activity and you miss that activity forever. Just make sure to post in the next period to get another 14.

Why can't I change my avatar?

You need to be a Full Member and up to be able to have an avatar.

When do I become Legendary?

You will become Legendary randomly somewhere between 775 and 1030 activity.

Does time spent online count towards activity?

No. It counts towards absolutely nothing and is a meaningless statistic.

Do only certain boards or posts have to be a minimum character length to count towards activity?

No. All boards and posts of all length currently count towards both.

If I create an account and leave it for x amount of time will I become a higher rank when I return?

No. You will still be a newbie. Activity measures how active you are on the forum and is to prevent against lazy account farming. If you do not make at least one post in each period then you will not get that activity.  

Why can't I post images?

Because you need to be a Junior Member to do that. To become a Junior Member you will have to have posted in three activity periods and have at least 28 activity. However, you can bypass these restriction by buying a Copper Membership for a small fee here.

-------------------

Merit FAQ:

What is Merit?

Merit is a new system created in order to reward quality contributions to the forum. Now to rise through ranks you will also need to acquire Merit in addition to Activity.

How do I receive merit?

You are awarded merit by people of the community if they find your post helpful or informative.

How do I send Merit?

There is a +Merit button at the top right of every post. To give merit click on it and follow the instructions.

What is the difference between Merit and sMerit?

There are two types of Merit. You cannot send your merits, just sMerit. For every Merit you receive you will have 0.5 spendable merit to reward posts as you see fit.

Can I ask for merit?

There is no need to do this and this behaviour is usually seen as 'merit begging' which is frowned upon by the community and may lead to you receiving negative feedback. Keep making quality, constructive posts and you will surely be rewarded over time.

Can I sell merit?

Selling merit is disallowed.

Can I give merit to my alt accounts?

No, this is frowned upon and will almost certainly lead to you receiving negative feedback if discovered.

Can I be demerited or lose merit?

No, not currently. Even if your post is removed the merit will still stay.

What is a merit source?

There are a certain number of special Merit sources who receive additional amounts of merit to give away. The list is not publicly available but is know to Staff.

How do I become a merit source?

As per theymos' instructions:

If you want to be a merit source:

 1. Be a somewhat established member.
 2. Collect TEN posts written in the last couple of months that have not received nearly enough merit for how good they are, and post quotes for them all in a new Meta thread.
 3. We will take a look at your history and maybe make you a source.

Is there a limit on how many merits I can send?

Yes. You can give a max of 50 merit to a user every 30 days.

Merit stats: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=merit;stats

Note: Please do not make useless 'thanks for the info' type posts in here as they will be removed, as will any questions that have already been answered or explained. If there's something that isn't clear or needs to be added then that's fine and I will add the details to the op as needed.

Please report any threads that ask questions that have already been answered here as they are now unnecessary and will be removed. Thanks.

Your latest message were verified successfully with my electrum.
Did you try to send another PM to Theymos/Cyrus?

They got hundreds of message everyday, its easy for them to miss or ignore your PM
Otherwise, try to contact Hilariousandco, he said he will ping the admins once it has been verified

I messaged the 3 of them. still waiting...

Only admins can restore accounts so there's nothing I can do. PM Cyrus again.

Who is the new manager? There is no way to tell for regular users who is banned but if it's permenant then their signature and profile info get removed (though avatars remain).
2388  Economy / Services / Re: FORTUNEJACK - Earn up to 0.2BTC - NEW Signature Campaign - Weekly Payments on: January 11, 2018, 07:27:55 PM
We have to announce sad news here. There will be a downsizing in campaign members list this week, tomorrow new list will be announced. Sadly, we will have to say goodbye to 10 of our most beloved campaign members. I am totally not happy with this happening and hope will have an opportunity to add new members soon. I will put a little goodbye gift on the last payment as well as an act of appreciation for all the time you have spent with us.

Cheers Sad  

You should thoroughly re-evaluate all the users that are on this campaign. Numerous accounts have been banned for copy and pasting recently and I suspect there are several users with multiple accounts on this campaign as there was initially and nothing has really changed since you last reshuffled it.

No.
2391  Other / Ivory Tower / Re: Request regarding new boards and few unrelated questions regarding sig. camp. on: January 10, 2018, 08:29:36 AM
First of all the idea of special place where no adds/sigs are active is great.
My request is about Ivory Tower, how about making it completely detached zero to activity

This is what I've suggested. Without it these boards will still be abused in any which way they can.

with a special privilege though, which could be allowed altcoin giveaways with post containing addresses, still with members only requirement and excluded from post history [maybe a stupid idea but IMO worth to mention

What? Not sure what you're trying to say here but why would we allow alt coin giveaways in here. Those sorts of boards like games and rounds have already been proposed to be removed from post count completely since they contribute nothing here and are currently being abused to farm thousands of accounts.

As for the rest, not sure why you think this board is relevant to complain about you not being paid for your signature campaign. Open up a scam accusation.

2392  Other / Meta / Re: Reported a topic, but was mistaken on: January 09, 2018, 03:42:15 PM
He isn't banned. Someone marked the report as bad.
2393  Other / Meta / Re: Is it possible to delete negative trust from my account on: January 05, 2018, 08:49:18 PM
No. Feedback is rarely moderated here. It dosen't matter as it's untrusted and nobody will pay attention to it.

2395  Economy / Services / Re: ★ Coinroll ★ Signature Campaign ★ on: January 05, 2018, 12:28:20 PM
Out of interest, is the campaign adding new members? I would be interested but the campagin manager Namworld was not online for half a year. It does not make much sense to drop a PM.

See my post above:



can i follow bounty signature?
if it still can be where I can register
thanks

It's only really open to 'exceptional' members and  new users are rarely accepted, but all the info about applying can be found in the op.

Yahoo is the one to talk to but the rule likely still allies.

Feel free to make an offer.

Some of the best ones so far include:

3 eth for the whole year for both accounts
$100 a month for hilariousetc
2ETH for whole year in your main account only.

That's the same offer I've already had. 2 eth for this account and 1 for etc. I would prefer to do a deal on just hilariousetc for now though as I might need to keep this avatar space free though I'm still open to offers.
