Is there anything after Legendary? Like "Epic"? Actually that should be between Hero and Legendary.

Not yet.

Maybe some years from now, when there will be enough users near 2k posts. For some reasons the next ranking requires more or less 2x more activity than the previous ones, and I doubt it will change in the future.

All rankings are pretty much double the previous one
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=178608.0

The one after legendary if there is one would just have a larger variance range around
1550 to 2060 Activity if it keeps that pattern in the future.

(just a bit more and a hero rank could fit in that variance range ^_^)

Ok so there is another shiny 1/2 coin next to your name.  Can anyone explain how this is so important?  If you ask me the time to make this Exciting new 1/2 coin status could have been spent on something worth wild here. Why is this so Exciting?  Is this some kind of Macho status here? When does the Penis size comparison come into play?

I just don't get what is so Exciting about this new status.

How about the site owner focus on more Important things rather than a shiny coin on your profile? What a waste of time.
Just saying

The key to my ♥ has been lost. Call a locksmith

I think the gap is too big between senior, hero, and legendary. 6 months at least. I think there should be some more ranks to diversify things a bit.

why?

Ranks have a certain consistent scheme.

15 --> 30 --> 60 --> 120 --> 240 --> 480 --> ~960

It is no accident, that they made it the way it is now!

Basically the forum is turning posting into a CSS frag match.

Well it's lunchtime where I am now and I have just noticed this - so I guess I have become "a legend in my own lunchtime".  Grin

Lol...I did it on call in the hospital, apparently. Cool idea...it'll help know everyone know who has been around for a while.

Too bad I don't get a half green and half yellow final coin :-)

Hardforks aren't that hard. It’s getting others to use them that's hard.

"Legendary" sounds nice, just rolls off the tongue, but I haven't even made "hero" rank yet.  Cheesy

6 months and 21 days for me to get into the range of Legendary. 1 year and 4 months for guaranteed.

Currently at 588. Countdown starting...

This means that in 2017 people who have registered on here just today have a potential of being "Legendary"? I'm not really a fan of emotes, but I gotta use this one...  Roll Eyes

I'm probably a good example of someone that shouldn't be "Legendary" on here...

It doesn't make sense though, because that final jump is literally 14 months, well 9-16 months. And then during the additional 9-16 months, it will increase with inflation to keep the numbers down. In 14 months, if every other account on the forum was active, they'd all have become hero - that's how long that final jump is.

Not even considering that activity is still limited in that its a time based metric.

You still won't know everyone that's been around awhile. Take Holliday for example, he has been here since early 2011 and posts continuously. He just deletes a bunch of his posts every once in a while and loses rank. I've been alcoholocaust, shadow, boscoj, jenny hill, CornedBeefHash and now QuestionAuthority but I've been here since the beginning of 2011.

That's what I'm saying. It only takes about 2 years and 4 months for a brand new account to possibly become "Legendary". Now if you think of the meaning of the word, someone can become a legend after ~2 years? Really??

Exactly. It will help everyone know who has been here for a while. It will not help anyone know everyone who has been here for a while.

Hardforks aren't that hard. It’s getting others to use them that's hard.

I wonder if any of the current newbies will reach this level before we all lose interest in bitcoin. I certainly hope so, I'd love to have some BTC charts to watch 2 years from now Tongue

You could just do forum rank according to standard deviations and set legendary rank for accounts with activity above 3 standard deviations.  This would ensure that the highest rank is always highly exclusive.  

Bell curve distribution with no skew has its merits, too.

I think you'll find that the mean is much lower than you think due to the vast number of new accounts. Anything below the mean would likely be Newbie.
