[LOG] The ranked up members - Congratulations!

[Igebotz]

I have ranked up just today.

I thought I needed 500 activity, and, therefore, I didn't expect to rank up until two weeks from now, but today I was pleasantly surprised. At first I thought it was a mistake, but I checked in the Merit & New Rank Requirements thread that I only needed 490 activity and 500 merit.
 

Lol. I was surprised to see you rank up to Hero, so I immediately checked my profile to see whether I rank up too since my Activity points were the same as yours, and I was planning to rank up in the first week of December. All this while, I had 500 Activity points in my thoughts. Congratulations.

My congratulations. To be honest, I did not pay attention to your rank, not doubting that you have been taking the hero's place for a long time.
Why are you so humble, and do not create a congratulatory theme, as the current "heroes" who have reached 10 merits, and demand their recognition (just kidding) do?
My respect, I am sure that with your posts, you surpass many legends. 

[Stalker22]

Congratulations to you both, @Poker Player and @igehhh! Your new ranks are well deserved.

You both are clearly appreciated for your contributions to this forum, and I enjoyed reading many of the comments you posted. I consider you a well-informed and well-intended individuals, and your words and thoughts are certainly noted and respected. You deserve recognition and accolades for what you have done so far.

Actually this time it has been more monotonous than the last time I ranked up, as it was something expected and had the merits. It has been kind of routine but with a slight positive surprise for being earlier than expected.

The last time I ranked up I was more excited because I didn't expect it at all and LoyceV helped me. I think that was a turning point for me on the forum and from that I became a better and better poster. I don't consider myself a bad poster before, I think I was an OK/decent poster, but from that point on I improved a lot.

If we compare before that day when I was earning merits at a slower pace than my activity, now I am earning more than 50% more merits than activity.

Little by little it has been a positive snowball: later on I was accepted in the Best Change campaign. Then I was put in DT. I think these are all things that give you confidence and reinforce that more and more you make a positive contribution to the forum.

[GazetaBitcoin]

Oh, Gazeta, you are so cute!

Jokes apart, the merit/activity ratio is an old idea of mine, but long ago

Awww, fillippone, amico mio, I did not know about that topic of yours. Now, by seeing it, I only realize once more that great minds think the same!

it was dismissed, as many users have a high activity because they were in the forum well before the merit system was introduced. Others had “free merits” in the same event.

Indeed, this is an impediment and it can hardly (if not impossible) be avoided by those which became Legendary members before the merit system. However, setting high goals is up to each individual and doing so, each can come close to their wishes and, overall, improve themselves. Some wish to have at least 1:1 merits vs posts ratio. Some wish to have 1:1 merits vs activity ratio. Some want to obtain Legendary rank. Some want to obtain even just 1 merit, to not be newbies anymore. No matter how others see the respective goal - as being easily achievable or not - only the fact that you proposed yourself a certain ambition may help you better yourself each day. And this is something to appreciate, no matter if we talk of new members or old ones...

Why are you so humble, and do not create a congratulatory theme, as the current "heroes" who have reached 10 merits, and demand their recognition (just kidding) do?

Don't forget also all the dozens creating threads like "From zero to hero" It was like a mass hysteria at some point with this kind of threads. I noticed though they are not so often nowadays. Nevertheless, chapeau to those which ranked up!

I didn’t create a zero to hero thread, but I did create a zero to legend thread, and even hosted a giveaway. It was a lot of fun.

Some people that put a lot of effort into their time at the forum are proud of being able to rank up to the highest rank. The overwhelming majority of legendary accounts were grandfathered into their rank. Very few people that were not legendary when the merit system was implemented are not legendary members today, even if they have the required activity and have remained active.

I remember that topic of yours and I congratulate you for your achievement. But it's a huge difference between "from zero to hero" vs "from zero to legend" Such thread is indeed understandable, as you obtain the highest rank possible, which comes also after a very long time of waiting... It's not that the waiting time for Hero is too short, but compared to the threshold needed for Legendary is way, way shorter... hundreds of days shorter. Not needed to mention also the difference regarding the required merits.

This is why I think such a thread, highlighting such a performance, like reaching Legendary rank, represents a very nice memory for each user and it's understandable why (almost) each one likes to share the experience through a topic in the forum. What I wrote earlier, about the "zero to hero hysteria" was referring also to the hysteria which seemed to touch many other lower ranked members, which were also creating similar threads (how I became Member / Full Member etc / My road to Sr. Member / I just got my first merit and I ranked up! / and so on and so forth) and I think you remember also that period It was like everybody which ranked up was creating a thread on this matter (indeed I am exaggerating here ).

I, on my side, considered to be useless to create any such topic prior reaching Legendary rank. Indeed, I respectfully thanked, with several occasions, to those which ranked me up -- and this is a gesture which I considered to do so from politeness and for expressing my appreciation. But about writing topics after reaching each new rank -- I never thought to do that. But I'd like to write such a thread when I'll become Legendary, thus it'll remain as a nice memory here...

We sort of already know how some a certain member profile will try to milk the forum out of... everything that can be turned into money (merits in this case). It's not really something new, but it's fun to see how creative people can eventually get in order to do so, and how the rest will follow (if not multi-accounts).

On a more personal note; thank you Coin-1 for the congratulation! I hadn't yet posted a thank you message because I didn't consider myself to have actually reached Legendary rank. I did want to surpass the 1000 earnt merits before I could start calling myself that, and even if it took a few weeks after the fact, it's now officially been done.

So thank you sir!

Damn! I missed that! And I missed this post although I am a close observer of this topic and I take any occasion to congratulate people which ranked up, especially the ones I know closer or the ones I had collaborated with... and I'm doing that since I first noticed this topic, 2 years ago. But, somehow I missed Coin-1's lattest mention of your name here, Csmiami, and I feel very bad about that.

But seeing it now, I am more than happy to tell you sincere "Congrats!" as you fully deserve your actual rank. Your contributions to the forum brought much wisdom and knowledge and I truly appreciate all your work here. I also thank you once again for the hand of help you gave me a while ago, during that investigation I performed (and which I did not finish yet ). All in all, it is great to have another user with a great reputation reaching the ultimate rank!

Chapeau, Csmiami! Congratulations!!!

Congratulations on ranking up!

my goal is that the merits surpass my activity here in the forum and from then on this should remain so, whereby the activity then increases continuously in certain daily intervals
thus i am forced to write good and helpful posts, so that these are filled with merits

This is an interesting strategy. The profile of a user whose merits exceed the activity points looks really nice.

Nevertheless, chapeau to those which ranked up!

To be honest, I've never encountered this word before. As far as I understand, "chapeau" means "bravo" in French.

Have you forgotten about me? You haven't mentioned me, even though I said in this very thread that I ranked up on 11/17/2021. I don't see me in the first page either.

I am more than pleased to see the names from this update and I am congratulating all the ones being mentioned here!
I have a special mention though for nakamura12, which is the one which gave me the second merit I received in my activity here. I will always remember this And I am pleased to see him reaching this high rank!

n0nce, Jean_Luc, RickDeckard, TheArchaeologist, W Jr. have earned the merit amount required to become a Hero Member but they have no enough activity points yet.

RickDeckard is another user for which I have a special appreciation, both for bringing very good contributions to the forum and also for the fact that he cares a lot for tough situations happening in various countries, including mine... This is rare and he impressed me a lot when he shared his worries for various regimes, corruption within governments and for all people suffering from such leaders. Congratulations, Rick!

Nevertheless, chapeau to those which ranked up!

Hehe, yes It is a sign of showing respect, a sign of appreciation and it's similar to "bravo!". However, it's a bit more eccentric word, used more in academic context. It's like saying "I take my hat off in front of you!"

That's from when I ranked up to Full Member. I have ranked up twice since then. The last one a week ago to Hero Member and I don't see it anywhere.

Or I don't know if I don't understand you correctly.

Nah, you are right; I messed up.

However, I double checked and found the Hero entry

Its been a while I saw my name in this thread, I would like to congratulate too other members who ranked up to their designated ranks and also I would like to congratulate myself for achieving this Hero member rank and getting more active on our local because we are one of the lowest merit circulations. Im looking forward to my next rank achievement and see here again too.

Lol! That's wrong as well. As I said before, I ranked up to Hero last week, not in August, and I posted on this thread:

I have ranked up just today.

I thought I needed 500 activity, and, therefore, I didn't expect to rank up until two weeks from now, but today I was pleasantly surprised. At first I thought it was a mistake, but I checked in the Merit & New Rank Requirements thread that I only needed 490 activity and 500 merit.

 

I guess the tracking is not automated, and it is easy to make mistakes. Thanks for the work anyway.

I have proven that struggle is never in vain and now I am very relieved to see my name on the list of Legendary members in this forum after the merit system. I also want to congratulate all the users who made it to the rank, this is a great proof that can motivate other users. There are no words of satisfaction, just be grateful and continue to contribute.

It was somewhat not too long not too early journey for me on the forum to be a legendary member but seeing you name on that list of ranked up member is feeling of immense joy for me but i learned that if you are dedicated to learn and exchange knowledge on the forum then you don't need to worry about ranking up as you will receive enough merits from low as well high rank members to help you reach high ranks but you only need to be productive member of forum.

The queue for members creating thankful message threads on reaching high rank in hope of earning more merit is long  but i  seriously don't want to go that way and continue my work to be effective poster and have some more responsibility now.

Rest congratulations to all who have managed to receive merits and activity to qualify for next high rank in that list above.

[Coin-1]

This is the third part of the list of users who received enough merits to rank up to Full Member.
