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

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??

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 :-)

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.

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!

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.

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

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

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

Godlike, anyone?

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

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://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/forum-rankspositionsbadges-what-do-those-shiny-coins-under-my-name-mean-178608

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 ^_^)

Umm... is it just me or does the 5th "shiny coin" (that's what it's supposed to be, right?) actually look more like a half coin?

When I first saw the new rank, I thought it was below 'Hero' because of that.

Maybe another color than yellow? Green perhaps? It is hard to see.

What is wrong with using "LEGENDARY MEMBER"?

lol oh yeaaaah! Loving the new title!

What are the requirements for being LEGENDARY? lol

 Grin Grin Grin
Theymos said that its random for each user, but its between around 700 to 1000.

More precisely, the activity required is set randomly between 775 to 1030.
So if you are lucky and have a requirement of 775, you could get the title 8.5 months earlier than having bad luck and a requirement of 1030. Smiley

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.
I personally don't like it because 8.5 months is a huge difference, for only one rank.
