3. Consider you have 125 posts and 112 activity. You made 15 posts, then your posts will be 140, but your activity will be 126. (Note: 14 points max per period.)
 I know that if i don't post period in  2 week , i lost my activity. Right ?  Consider  i have  42 post and  14 activity since registered 1 month .

I really dont understand how to calculate activity and post counts, isnt my post the same as my activity? please teach me thanks.

Post and activity are *not* same. "Posts" is total post count. Instead, activity depends on no. of posts you made during certain periods. A period is 14 days[1]. You get maximum of 14 points per 14 days as activity. If you haven't made any post in a 2 weeks period, you will loose activity points in that period forever. However, if you make at least one post in a period, you won't miss those activity points, instead, it gets accumulated and once you post next time, your activity will increase. That is, if you posted 3 times in a 2 weeks period, then your activity increases by 3 at the end of that 2 weeks period and remaining 11 points is saved up for later. When you post next time, in another period, you will be able to get 25 points, either if you post 25+ times or if your "posts" is higher than activity, i.e. 14 points of that period plus 11 points from previous period.

Scenarios:-

1. Consider you have 112 "posts" and 112 "activity". You post one time, then at the end of a period, your activity and posts will be 113. You got 1 activity point and remaining 13 points will be accumulated for later.

2. Consider you have 112 posts and activity and you made 20 posts, then at the end of period, your posts will be 132, but you activity will be 126. (Note: 14 points max per period(2 weeks = 14 days.)

3. Consider you have 125 posts and 112 activity. You made 15 posts, then your posts will be 140, but your activity will be 126. (Note: 14 points max per period.)

4. Consider you have 125 posts and 112 activity. You made 1 post, then your posts will be 126, but your activity will be 126. That is, you get 1 activity point by posting once in that period plus 13 posts (125-112=13).

5. Consider you have 125 posts and 112 activity. You made 5 posts, then your posts will be 130, but you activity will be 126.

I have a question what does consider an activity?
 Is it each message or comment that I apply or something else?

Your Activity is purely based on posts. Private messages or "Total time logged in" have no effect on your Activity Level.

I don't know but that seems not true to me. I have much more posts than my activity level and I am also online most of the time. I even send and receive many PM's but still my activity seems to be same.

My point exactly. You must not have read the entire thread or fully understand, because your activity  can never surpass your post level, nor will it ever increase by more than 14 points at a time. I assure you that your total time online or private messages have nothing to do with your activity level. Go back and read the info again.

That's what I was saying I read the thread before but your previous comment seems kind of not true to me and thus I asked. BTW, thanks for replying and making me even more alert about the points. If I am not wrong. We get 14 points within 14 days.. Daily 1 point if we do 1 post or more but it wont be counted daily instead it will be counted within 14 days.

[TropicalDog17]

Hey guys i don't understand how activity count... It said that the maximum activity we can get in two week is 14, but why i get 42 activities in only three weeks? Is that mean it can get 14 activities every week?

No, that is still incorrect. You don't need to post one post every day. You just need to make at least 14 posts within the 14-day activity period to get your activity up. It doesn't matter whether you post all 14 posts in one day or 14 posts over the period of the 14 days. Additionally, you cannot earn more than 14 points in a single activity period, so even if you post 100 messages within 14 days, the maximum amount of points you will earn during the activity period is 14.

On the contrary, if you only post 5 points within the 14-day activity period, you will earn 5 activity points after the activity period ends.

This has all been explained repeatedly throughout this thread, so please excuse me when I sound rude in telling you to read the information again. It's all there.

Yeah but my account is almost 3 years old and I have 218 posts (219 with this) yet in my activity it shows 196 only.. any idea why?

Because you probably haven't made a single post in several of those 14-day activity periods. You only get (up to 14) activity levels for each 14-day activity period, not the collective total amount of activity periods that your account has been registered on the forums.

You can't add an avatar until you are a Full Member. You can add a signature in your profile settings but only a minimal one currently until you achieve a higher rank. Go to your Profile then Forum Profile Information and change your signature at the bottom.

Not sure I understand you correctly but you will not lose rank by missing a period and go back to being a newbie. You would only do that if you deleted all the posts you made in an activity period.

Why don't you actually do a bit of research and reading? This info is in the op and dozens of other threads throughout Meta. Post count and activity are not the same. You can only get 14 activity every two week period, so that's why they are not 'converted'.
