That used to be the case, but it's not anymore. You will have to gain 1 merit in order to rank up and being active is not enough, your posts/threads have to be constructive and helpful.

Why my rank always member ? how to upgrade ? 😂

As stated in the OP and several times....

Rank	Required activity	Required merit
Brand new	0	0
Newbie	1	0
Jr Member	30	1
Member	60	10
Full Member	120	100
Sr. Member	240	250
Hero Member	480	500
Legendary	Random in the range 775-1030	1000

You need to get merit to rank up (in your case, because the activity is rather large). To get merit, some user has to consider a post of yours a quality one, and then, s/he will send some meriit (or not)

How to increase my Activity to become a Jr. member?

Your activity increases as you post with a maximum of 14 points per two weeks period. Read the OP for more details about merits and how to become Jr member.

How to increase my Activity to become a Jr. member?

Reading the OP would be a nice start.

To increase your activity you need to post and wait.

Your max activity will increase by 14 every 2 weeks you were active, and your actual activity will increase by the number of posts you posted, until your max activity is reached.

However you also need merit to reach Jr Member.

If you are in a hurry you can pay for a copper membership which will give you the same benefits as a Member Rank for 0.00240385 BTC https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=credit;promote


Omega' you beat me to it. Leaving my message for the copper link

In bitcointalk, I saw the value of Merit and the difficulty of obtaining it. He seems to be not as easy as mining bitcoin. Lol, maybe it can be related to Merit and bitcoin, just a suggestion.

The difficulty of getting merit has nothing to do with mining bitcoin.
If you have difficulty getting the merit, maybe you can try the tips in the following thread:
Newbie's Guide to Getting Merit (Proven) - mu_enrico

Note: There are many merit sources in this forum.

Is it possible increase the account type only with the age of account?
The account type change automatic when increase my reply of the post?

The activity means 1 replay in 1 different post, or 1 replay in the same post?


Thanks a lot...

The age of the account only helps to upgrade your rank If you were active. In your case, it doesn't help because even though your account was made in 2017, you did not post during these three years.

Your rank (what you're calling 'account type') will automatically change, but it's when you have the sufficient activity/merits. Your activity will start to increase as you post, but with a maximum of 14 points per two weeks period so even If you make 50 posts, your activity will stop at 14, and only increase again (to 28) until the next activity period.

[Scaapy]

Thanks a lot for replay, I read more post without a login during this years... Now I understand the rule and I try to became more active on this forum...

I'm a crypto enthusiast with a small mining farm in Italy and I work around a new FPGA mining programming...

P.S. If I want changge the username, Can I do this (if I writing the admin of forum)?

See you soon

You can message theymos, but chances that he will let you change your username is really slim (see the quote below). Other members suggest to newbies with the same intention to just "create a new account with the desired username". You can do that and just abandon this one.

Q: I want to change my forum username. What should I do?
A: You can either donate 50 BTC to become a VIP or PM theymos asking to change your username (although he rarely accepts such requests nowadays).

You need to post high quality content and get merit. You need 1 Merit to become Jr Member and 10 Merit to become a Member.

Looking at your posts I don't see anything that I'd consider deserving of merit. A lot of one-liners and similar low-quality stuff. Put decent amounts of effort into some of your post and someone will merit you soon enough.

thank you for reply i will try put more effort and write more on my posts make them really long so i can get merits

[masulum]

thank you for reply i will try put more effort and write more on my posts make them really long so i can get merits

It's not about how long you are writing. But, it's about how your post can help other member to understand about something. How you can simplify your content (reply/thread) that make another member easy to understand. Even you are writing reply with 300 words, if your reply out of topic, you wouldn't get merit. Let's think about:

• Help people to understand
• Problem solver
• Guiding member
• Educating member
• Fact,
• etc.

This factor will bring you to get merit. But, even someday you are doing all of the points I mentioned above still not giving you any merit, just try again, if you think your post is good enough (high quality post), maybe you can try to report your post on this thread.

It must be no more than 120px wide, 80px tall, and 100 KiB in size. It must be a PNG, GIF, or JPEG image. It must be safe for work.

For those who want to install an avatar with the GIF format at this time can not play the animation.
Here are some other rules when using avatars:

Re: [Serious] Avatar Rules Discussion - theymos

It's been that way for years and it won't change, IIRC the only exceptions are if you had an animated avatar before they were disabled.
