[April fools] New new rank requirements

[suvo05]

it is only me or somebody else see a fly on those 'graphic' ?

LOL! I also also watching a fly on the graphic.

How does it know how many coins I have invested it?

Don't have any clue

I hope Theymos locks this thread by tomorrow, otherwise it is going to turn into a over-100 pages spam megathread:

dear all,
this is just for testing purpose sir if my politeness will increase with this post sir

thanks and kind regards

Sir,  I am pleased to see an improvement on the ranking system on this forum but I'll appreciate more explanation on some of the new features especially 'Coins'.
Thank you

Dear Sir,
I do not think this is a joke, but if this is true, then I think it is one great thing
there are some indicators do not clearly understood, there is a provision that the promotion? If so, how much should be achieved for metrics to promotions? Or just achieve some merit.
Please explain me more! Tks so much!

I do not understand much about this new arrangement. Who can tell me if I want to become a member, I have to achieve something on .merit, politeness, fmerit, imagination, virtue, coins, karma. How do you get new rankings?

[Quickseller]

Because of this, the entire forum will look like signature spammers with all the "please sir"'s being posted.

[Piggy]

Nice April joke i guess

[sapta]

Seriously, theymos? My politeness is only 252?!

[fklfyl]

I'm still a newbie. I don't understand the new rules at all. How can I increase my ‘virtue’? . Do not know if this is more and more complicated.

[adjk7]

I don’t know what the added new rules mean. Do I need to add polite phrases such as Mr. or Please to each post? I think this is an undeniable move.

[cissrawk]

Hello, sir. Can i get a lot politeness now, please? I want to rank up now!
I almost don't realize it, lol. You got me!

[techbill]

In the OP it says "Rank adjustments happen every week on Tuesday, and you can only go up 1 rank per week." Does that mean that activity time now goes up on a weekly basis rather than bi weekly?

[SFR10]

I'm shocked that I'm polite on this forum with 892 politeness while in person isn't , upon seeing posts above I have the largest number of this even than theymos lmao.

I've got more "1189"

It actually is a real stat (counting instances of "thanks" etc. in posts). But he has a lot of posts.

Testing:

- Thanks for everything.

Will I gain another one?

I know it's just an April Fool's joke but let it be for a little bit longer, it's sooo entertaining

GOD, NOOO (a new topic will be created every other minute in Meta), although I agree with you (latter part)
I have to admit: Halfway through, I bookmarked this thread (face palm)

[mu_enrico]

Dear sir,

You must be kidding
Please review your decision before you do anything "nice"
Oh.. it's 1st April
Well played sir
Wish you all the best!
Let's see if my politeness point increase or not

Sincerely,
Your polite member

[honeyira]

Seriously? Well, looking at how theymos and his team manage this forums, I am going to #DeleteBitcointalk.

Do #DeleteBitcointalk if you guys agree with me.

(Welp. It's just my April Fool joke.)

I think no body will agree with you even it's a joke.

[shetat]

Ha, whoa, my first day again to log-in, then there I saw a big update, like today's April's fool right?
But reading all their comment make me say, ah, it's reality, just please indicate what the 'f' means on fmerit and how does it work precisely, thank you.

[RaltcoinsB]

it has been an interesting renovation. how effective is politeness here? Will the bounty be affected? Most people use the forum for both learning and bounty. Thanks for the answers, sir.

[phuong kim]

I don't know, i don't like, i don't understand. You are jorker. LOL. Today is 01 April. Right?

[dx_twisted]

OMG, just opened the forum to find all those parameters under my name :S

Even I was surprised upon seeing other paramaters under each users post. I immediately look for the thread coming from an administrator pertaining to this new rule. I was thinking that many people will complain a lot about this like when the merit system was implemented. Find it hard to believe as the sound of each post were confirming that it's all true until I see a thread from Sir theymos.

Well, whether its an April Fool's joke or not. I really like the idea in adding up other parameters even though its hard to maintain all those stats just to rank up.

[dale1075]

In theory this is a good campaign to promote quality posts. But I think this would be another cross for us in the lower rank. I have accepted the fact that I will be Member rank forever because of the Merit system. Then there is another new rank requirements.
Anyway as long as there is no rank demotion I'll support the rules.

[theymos]

Will I gain another one?

Politeness, Imagination, and Coins were calculated based on all of your past posts, but they don't update real-time. fMerit, Virtue, and Karma do update roughly every 20 minutes. But only Staff, Donators, or VIPs will find themselves able to adjust their Virtue that quickly.

[Ginzink]

I think alot of members have a little shock when seing so many new sats, until they remember the date.
Had me going for a couple seconds, and then i had to find the april fools thread

[fxstrike]

Nice stats for quick interaction profile reference
