yes.

why? want to be whitelisted so that you can post useless one-liners faster?  
I doubt the staff will whitelist you with that kind of posts.

No, I just want to upgrade my rank with posts, not with activity.

not sure where you get that idea from. you can only upgrade your rank with activity.

That's not what whitelisting is for or how it works.
Besides, you have to provide a (damn) good reason for being whitelisted anyway.


If you want to "rank up", there's no need for being whitelisted.
Do it as everyone else does it, over time and with the limits everyone got when they were newbies.

Ah, I saw this information in the forum.
Activity just increase, It can't decrease?

if your post count fell below the activity (because your post got deleted), it'll decrease.

Fine, thanks for your help.

Yeah, activity points not only increased because your activity points will decrease by 14 points every 116 years.

TLDR; Every 116 years you will lose out on 14 activity. Sad right ?

Perhaps this is a joke that went over my head but that's not what that post means - there is no decrease but each activity period is slightly longer than 14 days.

Besides there is a chance we might be using the new forum software in 116 years... not so sure about that one though.

That's not what 'lose out' was supposed to mean.
Rather (as suchmoon pointed out), since every activity period is not exactly 14 days long, but a little bit longer (+ 6 minutes, 40 seconds), you just don't gain that 14 activity.
However, that would not lead to your activity decreasing, but leads to the start of the new activity period slowly shifting further back.

Ofc, there are reasons of activity decreasing, e.g. when you (or someone else) delete all your posts in one period.
Or for potential activity accounts (as pointed out above), when their post count (because of a deleted post) falls under their activity.

Oh, dream on.
