The definitive explanation of how activity works!

[jambola2]

The 14 day period is confusing to find start and end dates with..

Here is a post explaining exactly when the 14 day periods start and giving a list of all days till 2021.

Might as well sticky this...several threads a day asking this question.

Might be a good idea... Unfortunately, I'm not staff (yet?), so I can't

Probably should be stickied. I don't remember reading it anywhere in the help.

Yes, I know there's an official thread explaining this somewhere but I've had a hard time finding it whenever I've looked.  I think this (or the official thread) should be stickied.

What part of what I said isn't true?

Your activity increases with your post count if your post count is less than (time * 14). Your post count can be more than 14 below (time * 14), therefore your activity can increase with your post count for more than 14 levels within a 2 week period.

true

I'm pretty sure your activity only increases with your post count up until the max of 14 points for that period. I've never seen any instances of what you're saying unless I'm missing something here.

I think it's correct just stated confusingly.  The most clear explanation is the OP.  define "time", define postcount, then activity = min(time*14,postcount)

I'm not disputing that, but just the claim that people can get more than 14 activity in any two week period in some instances. That's what I'm not getting or unsure of.

[maxxon]

Postcount is understandable... but what time means?

[maxxon]

Sorry. Understood (number of two-week periods in which you've posted since your registration)...

[Predict27]

To get It all clear and more simple. You can get 28 activity per 2 weeks period maximum. Usually you will always get 14 activity every 2 weeks period If your post count Is high enough to gain your activity.


Basically you get 14 activity every 2 weeks period If you post at least once in those 2 weeks and your post count Is higher than your activity.

I'm not far behind. How many weeks to go? Is it at 480 or?

Yup it is 480. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=178608.0
So just 6 more periods to go for you.

It would be great to edit the OP to contain the levels at which you get various promotions.  The OP perfectly explains the calculation, but now I need to go and find another thread to see what level numerically equals what level rank.

Cheers!

edit: oh lucky me it's in the post right above mine---yahoo

well sorry i got stuck here if i make over the 20 posts in two weeks then after the week how much my activity will be.. ? i mean how much it will increase to 20? well i joined the forum on 20 may 2014 now is 20 june 2014 total one month its about 4 months two weeks 2 * 14 = 28 then why my activity is 42 and i m posting from many days my activity is still 42.. stuck?

[hilariousandco]

Because you need to have posted in each of the two week periods to get the full points. You wont be able to get another 14 points until Tuesday and then another 14 two weeks after that and so on. Why do you want them so bad anyway?

You may want to phrase  your questions a tiny bit more clearly

Your activity is going up at those dates :

A lot of folks forget the aspect of "if your post count is higher than your activity".  I've had this account for a long time and just posted every now and again for a long time.  So my activity basically rises step-in-step with my post count.  Several times I've said, oh, I'm about to be promoted in rank and someone will say "no you won't until Tuesday" not realizing that I'm one of the few old accounts with a low activity because I don't post a lot.

You can definitely get more than 14 activity in a two week period as long as your time*14 is < postcount.  This is the case for my account.  I logged on very rarely for over a year and posted just once or twice per week on average.  Therefore, if/when I go on a posting rant my activity climbs in step with my post count.  I joined a sig-ad campaign and my activity went from jr member to full member in two weeks.

I'm going to be at 58.. seems soo cruel to make the "member" activity so close

Well, it should be 56 (14 * 4)

You could join the 777coin one or the scratchticket one, please read https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=615953.0 for details.
