The definitive explanation of how activity works!

[PhurryVermin]

I'm going to be at 58.. seems soo cruel to make the "member" activity so close
Mmh more campaigns!
The only one is the 777coin right?

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.

Actually the ScratchTicket one is closed to new entries.

You are right, 56.. I didn't math very well xD

[franckuestein]

Very interesting, OP.

Thanks for sharing it with us. 
Some users don't know how it works

[poisenrang]

made my life bright, thanks:p

[gelar24]

sorry i am ask still newbie

it took many months if we want to level up to a greater extent?

example of jr.member> members> full member> sr.member and last> hero member

and whether the activity effect? or it takes time for it?

Not very sure of what your question is but I think you wanted to know how many months it takes to Hero
I believe its roughly a year and four months

Activity increases by 14 every two week period  if you have the posts

365/14 = 26 Periods

26*14 = 364 Activity to reach 480 you need another 116

Or roughly 116 days or 9 more 2 week periods.

You can work it out using this:

1 X 14 = 14
2 X 14 = 28
3 X 14 = 42 Jnr Member 
4 X 14 = 56
5 X 14 = 70 Member 
6 X 14 = 84
7 X 14 = 98
8 X 14 = 112
9 X 14 = 126 Full Member
10 X 14 = 140
11 X 14 = 154
12 X 14 = 168 
13 X 14 = 182
14 X 14 = 196
15 X 14 = 210
16 X 14 = 224
17 X 14 = 238 
18 X 14 = 252 Snr Member
19 X 14 = 266
20 X 14 = 280
21 X 14 = 294
22 X 14 = 308 
23 X 14 = 322
24 X 14 = 336
25 X 14 = 350
26 X 14 = 364
27 X 14 = 378
28 X 14 = 392
29 X 14 = 406
30 X 14 = 420
31 X 14 = 434
32 X 14 = 448
33 X 14 = 462
34 X 14 = 476
35 X 14 = 490 Hero member

He need another roughly 354 days to become a hero. 1 activity per day and its is updated every 14 days.

       480 days
    -  126 days
--------------
       354 days

Your right I meant to deduct the remaining days from that total
I guess it would be 1 a day so 480 days to become a hero from scratch
Never though of it that way just 1 a day to 480 plus or minus the first 14

[Vlad2Vlad]

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.

This can't be true.  I have tons of hours of being logged in and I have had some 2 week periods where I posted hundreds of posts and I don't think I have ever gotten more than a couple dozen activity points.

The current system is confusing and unfair.  Real active members should be going up faster than people who log on once per week for a few minutes.  

[hilariousandco]

What surfer43 said isn't true. Merely logging on every fortnight doesn't matter; you need to actually make at least one post as well. Make one post in each of the fortnight periods and you can collect the activity points at a later date.

That's how I understood it and I think it goes deeper than that.

I think that was the whole point - to make it difficult for people to game the new system.

[hilariousandco]

It's a good way of stopping people just spamming their way through the ranks. I like it, but the system can be gamed by obviously logging on once and collecting the points at a later date (and this is what most account farmers tend to do). Maybe having to actually make the 14 posts in the actual two-week period would be better.

Interesting suggestion.  However, the fact that you've had the account for long enough posting just once a fortnight or so seems to be worthy of something.  In my own case, I lurked and did't post much for about a year.  Then when I joined a sig campaign about a month ago, I basically blew by "member" and went to "full member" very fast.  I don't think I gamed the system in any way, I just think I got rewarded for the fact that I wasn't totally a newbie.

I don't disagree with you. A lot of users find themselves in your situation, but a lot also farm accounts this way. I still suppose at one point everybody has to make the minimum amount of posts to rank up anyway.

^this.

That's exactly what i was looking for. Thanks @hilariousandco for posting It because it's a good summary for all of us.
Hope to be a Senior member soon haha

Well you can now work it out easily how soon youll become one using that chart hehe.

[Swordsoffreedom]

Until you get to the legendary status that is
Then unless you can figure out how the secret key works
Your in for a fun time guessing when it will be unlocked  

To make things more fun, the Legendary membergroup has no universal activity requirement. You are guaranteed to become Legendary somewhere between 775 and 1030 activity, but the exact point in this range at which you become Legendary is random per user.

amazing info here for newbies like myself - thx for making this post and people keeping it going answering questions. Made understanding how it works very easy

[dadingsda]

I´m really confused now. So many questions after reading this. 

First and most important:

Is it possible to claim more than 14 activity in 2 weeks?
