Potential activity

[Zeroxal]

Hey guys

I wonder how potential activity actually works

I thought if I just post 1 post in a 14 day period and it would carry my potential activity of 13 after the period. So if I posted 27 post next period I would get 27 activity (13 from last period, 14 from current)

However I posted 1 post in multiple 14 day periods, now my activity is still locked at the current period, I only gained 14 activity for about 30 posts

Have I understood the activity system wrong?

As stated in the "Unofficial list of (official) Bitcointalk.org rules, guidelines, FAQ"  stickied thread:

The activity number is determined in this way:
time = number of two-week periods in which you've posted since your registration
activity = min(time * 14, posts)

Activity is updated every hour.

For example, if in a 14 day period you post 14 posts, you gain +14 activity.
If you post 2 posts in a 14 day period, you gain +2 activity.
If you don't post at all in a 14 day period, you don't gain activity.
However, if you post 15 or more posts in a 14 day period, you still gain only +14 activity.

I know that system. I am just curious because of the marketplace selling "Potential activity" accounts
My question was if my activity would increase if I posted 1 post in the 14 period before and the 13 activity left would be carried to the next period.
If not, how come they are selling "Potential activity accounts"

You only need to submit 1 post to gain all 14 activity. However, your post count needs to be equal or higher than the 14 activity to show on your account. Users selling potential activity accounts have post counts which are lesser than their 'potential' activity. So if they have a post count of 14. But, they have posted in two 14 day periods, they have a potential activity of 28. So if that account submitted a total of 28 posts, the activity would go up to 28.

So if I understand your question correctly, then yes. The activity would carry over, but won't show unless you post equal or more than the activity.

Thats what I thought too.
But why didnt I get the rest of the activity, I have posted posts in 3-4 14 week periods and there are about 30-40 activity left to gain. But it only gave me 14 activity when I have posted more than 40 posts recently.

Could someone be so kind and maybe check my posts to make sure I did everything right?
Thanks!

EDIT:
Forgot to mention I always had equal/less posts than my activity.

I think you posted too early in a few tuesday and went offline until the next period, so you didn't get the potential activity for that period.

example.

Oh, maybe.
However I only posted some posts spread in July, because of me going on vacation. There should've been some activity left.
I don't think I posted over 14 posts in the August period

If you have 126 activity and it's not moving after an hour then that means you've only posted in 9 periods and wont get any more until the next one.

[--Encrypted--]

number of post doesn't matter much. as long as you post in an activity period, you can get the rest of activity months later.

btw the next activity period won't begin until approx 8 hours from now. just saying in case you added that to your expectation. unless this spreadsheet is wrong. nvm

People have created bots that will do this for you. Just use one of them rather than manually doing it.

Here's a price estimator, which includes activity and potential activity: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1142314.0

Unsure, whether it's bug free though. They don't change anything, and this particular one is free. There is another one which is simply just a potential activity calculator which I can't find at the moment.

Thanks a lot!
