Forum ranks/positions/badges (What do those shiny coins under my name mean?)

[aiwazz]

Jr. Member:   Activity: 30, gets 1 gold coin under his name.

what is meant by activity, just 30 forum message's?

Yes, you can get 30 activity points by posting 30 posts. However, you can only get 14 activity points every 2 weeks.

Somewhat confused about the formula for calculating activity.

For example,


If someone makes 200 posts in the first 14 days what is their activity?
If they then make another 200 posts in their second 14 day period, what is their final activity?

Appreciate the clarification.

After first 14 days with 200 posts your activity will be 14. And if you do another 200 posts in the next 2 week period then your activity will be 28. No matter how many points you make, you won't get more than 14 activity points.

activity = (number of 2 week periods in which you have posted at least once *14, numer of posts)

So, if I'm posting on the forum since e.g. december 2016 - but before i readed more that wrote, i have more "14 days periods" let's say "in storage" - i'm understanding correctly?

Is it true that the devs are working on a new Bitcointalk forum? How will the rankings work there? Will our current ranks be transferred to the new forum as well?

Yes, everything will be transferred over, but I'm hoping there's a revamping of the ranking system in that signatures are removed from activity/rank on the new forum to stop the level of account farming and account hackings that are going on.

What you're saying makes little sense, but when you signed up is irrelevant and you won't get any potential activity if you don't make any posts at all in any given activity period.

That's interesting, it certainly is a problem that needs addressing. Do you have any information as to what new system is being proposed? Is this the end of signature campaigns or a different way of doing it?

Please tell me if possible. Some time ago I found a list with all the dates for the current year, but wasn't able to find it again...

Every 14 days can be increased by 14(activity), right?
Today I will become "member" if my calculations are good 

[Btchunter3333]

But now its passt 18:20 UTC and my activity ranking changed not a single point... and I post stuff every day..

[shams]

Thank you so much for this information I was finding it from last few day because I was confused about my activity no increasing but now my concept is cleared. Thanks.

Does anyone know why my activity didn't increase yesterday? I got 56 activity on 12th Sep. so I thought it will increase to 70 yesterday (26th Sep.).
I'm posting at least every 2-3 days. Am I calculating wrong, or misunderstanding the system?

I think activity is going to be updated next week, not this week.

[MaxDigger]

My activity remained the same. The last correction occurred on 12.09. Since then, I regularly participated in the forum's activities every day. I currently have over 40 posts and the my rank is still newbie. I hope that I didnt missed an update and that update will occur today.

Guys, you must be connected to see your activity grow.
@machamizu : now it's 70

This is true and for the previous two members I saw that their rank was already increased. Unfortunately, my ranking has remained the same. It's probably my mistake. I do not believe that there is anything else and I will be very disappointed if it turns out that I have made a mistake.

Now I looked stupid. My status has just changed. I apologize to everyone.

I was wondering the same thing. Thanks to the poster above for the link to the table for the activity updates.
