My rank should have changed today but hasn't yet. Activity didn't change

Same. Shouldn't it change today? is someone know exact time?

I finally understand now how we get upgraded in rank here in bitcointalk.

Thank you 

To even help you estimate how many weeks you need to rank up. You may use this:

https://www.bctalkaccountpricer.info/

Instructions are pretty much straighforward. Just plug in your User ID.  If you go to your profile on Bitcointalk and click any of the links under Additional Information, part of the URL will have u= folowed by a number. That number is your User ID. I think activity points have been given. For those who haven received it yet, I think you need to post at least once or thrice to see your rank up. I just ranked up to Full Member today, fyi. 

[Baofeng]

Nice thread. But I didn't get this formula "activity = min(time * 14, posts)" does this mean that I can increase my activity limit after tow weeks ? Also does the activity limit increases everytime ypu rank up? Thank you.

No. Activity points doesn't increase even though you rank up. Its still 14 activity points every two weeks regardless of your rank.

looks like ther's no shortcuts here ))

By now you already should understand that there are no shortcuts. You have to stay active in this forum if you have dreams to become like Hero/Legendary someday. You need to be active for 8 months or more to achieve this kind of status.

Ah. So it's really hard to rank up in just two weeks, the shortest time tp rank up is 1 month then?
 Say, if I posted 20 times under two weeks, I will only get 14 activity right? So what will happen to the excess post? Will it be counted in the next two week? Or will it be discarded. Thank you.

Yes. The minimum to rank is 1 months which will give you 42 activity points meaning you are now a Junior Member. Then you have to wait for another month to become a Member then. 14 activity points is the max that you can get every 2 weeks. Nothing will happen to the excess post. It will not be discarded. So don't think that post count = activity point. No. Its not like that.

What forum account levels are there?
There are multiple account levels on this forum, here is a quick list for all of them and how to get them:
0 Posts: Brand New
1 Activity: Newbie
30 Activity: Jr. Member
60 Activity: Member
120 Activity: Full Member
240 Activity: Sr. Member
480 Activity: Hero Member
775-1030 Activity (random): Legendary

Hope this helps.

Thanks Baofeng for clarifying this. Basically, I won't be able to become a Jr. Member until August 16, since my account is only created this July 15. Is that right?

Exactly, You will be officially become a jnr member on Aug 16. I know that you are very excited so that you can join signature campaign. hahahaha. Just be patience and go around the forum and learn something new at least a day and you are very much in the road to become more experienced member in due time. Goodluck.

I thought it would change today too. Maybe it has but I am not eligble? According to that spreadsheet, if it was referring to forum time, it was supposed to happen 3 hours ago.

Edit: Scratch that, it did just change for me as well.

Wow. What did you do to become jr member? I'm expecting too. I looked on your profile. It seems I have more post but you have more activity.

So twice a month, once in the beginning and once during the middle of the month? Didn't know that! haha nice that i got the Member level today, thought it will upgrade once you reached the min. amount required.

It is not exactly twice a month (and not during the beginning / middle of the month).
The dates (and time) on which activity changes is given here.

Just reached Full Member status after not posting for a month or so. Didn't realize activity level took time into account.
