The definitive explanation of how activity works!

[Comer]

I've posted this in so many threads now...

So, basically, the formula for the activity value is this:

Code:

time = number of 2 week periods in which you posted
activity = min(time*14, posts)

So, lets break this down.

Code:

time = number of 2 week periods in which you posted

This basically means what it says. If you've been registered for one week, then this will be 1. If you've been registered for three weeks and posted on the first day of registration and again today, then it will be 2.

If you've been registered for one year (lets say you registered on the 1st January 2013 and today is the 1st January 2014), and you only posted on the 1st January, 10th January, 23rd March, 15 April, 18 April and the 23rd December, your time value would be 4, because you posted for 4 two-week periods.

Code:

activity = min(time*14, posts)

This basically says that your activity value is the smaller value of your time value multiplied by 14, and your post count. So, if your time value is 2, then your time*14 value would be 28. If your post count was 30, your activity value would be 28. If your post count was 20, your activity value would be 20.

I hope this explains it to some people

Definitely it is based on your post to add in your activity it must be said that every 2 weeks your activity added 14 activities.Atleast you need a constructive post to not be deleted or a trash post.Technically your explanation was clear.

Let me see if I understand this correctly.

In order to maximize your activity count, you need to make one post a day OR 14 posts exactly every two weeks.

No... to be active you have to log in at least once every two weeks. To maximize activity, you must constantly be active (log in at lease once every two weeks) AND have a post count greater than or equal to the number of days you have been active.

It doesn't matter when you get your posts. You could for example log in every two weeks for two years and not post anything, then post 730 times in  a week. This would put your post count and activity at 730.

if that were the case then I'd be a hero( unfortunately, not always it works(I guess it doesn't always work..in my case the filing date is not affected by any..as posts are added to the activity only through a two-week period

If I understood everything correctly.

Does it mean that, to have high Activity more than 775 + (to become legendary) you have to be on forum registered (and posting of course) minimum 110 weeks?

775 / 14 = 55

55 * 2 weeks = 110


Is my logic correct?

Had to run the equation in my head a couple times, but it makes sense now.  Thanks for the info
