More than one years ago, the merit system began,
Merit & new rank requirementsMonths later, the merit system enhanced by new requirements on Junior Member rank (at least 1 merit to be Junior Members, if having enough activity).
ABSTRACT(1) There is a spike on daily merit after nearly 24 hours before enhanced merit system began
(2) The median within one year after enhanced merit system is at 621 and very closely to median of daily merits (since 18/2/2018 - 16/9/2019, first 26 days dropped due to outliers).
(3) Assumed monthly registered accounts decreased dramatically a few months after merit system enhanced.
See.
Note:
- There is a little bit incorrect in converted data I used, because merit system started just one hour after the end of 24/1/2018 (forum time).
- In the thread: we assumed the first day in dataset is for 24/1/2018, but in fact it ranges from last hour of 24/1/2018 to first 23 hours of 25/1/2018, forum time.
- Last two days dropped (id 602, 603)Variable notes:- merit: full dataset (only dropped last two days - after 16/9/2019)
- trunmerit3: first 3 days and last two days dropped (after 16/9/2019)
- trunmerit26: first 3 days and last two days dropped (after 16/9/2019)
- emerit: from 16/9/2018 to 16/9/2019

ResultsStatistics- The median (p50) of daily merits within one year after merit system enhanced (September 17, 2018, 04:27:20 AM, forum time) is 621 (620.5). While the median of daily merits (for full data set) is 629, 629 (first 3 days dropped), and 625 (first 26 days dropped).
- Both median and mean of Enhanced merits (emerit) are closely to the figure for daily merits (just truncated first 26 days, due to potential outliers).
- For the reasons why first 26 days dropped, please see
