I agree with previous comments that after new merit system getting new rank is enough difficult process. Even if you create goog posts, nobody wants to sent a merit.

You are completely lost, you should read the meta section of the forum. The rank requires activity and merit. Activity is time and posts and merit is given by other users.

Few months ago it is a little much easier to rank here,that is why most of the people are posting spams to get rank faster,the owner of this forum which is theymos decided to fight the spam and shitposters that is why he made merit system that will force all of the people to post only good quality contents for you to be able to get some merit points that you will need to get rank up.

Nowadays, bitcointalk rank is hard to get, your post and merit work side by side. Before you are given a merit, you must have post a vital information on the bitcointalk that people appreciate, means that... Your IQ is highly needed to take you to next level.

Last year there are no merits required but now we have the merit system which reqquired for you to be able to get rank,activities and merits should be achieve before you will get into next level,which is quite hard because not all of your posts will be appreciated by all the people so there will be less chances of getting high rank accounts here in bitcointalk today.

It is really very hard to rank up after the merit system was implemented because even you have a good and constructive posts still it seems no one will give you a merits. I just hope that it will requires us to give merits every month so that everyone will cooperate to merit a post. Anyway, I supported this new rules because our family in this forum is getting bigger that the need to control spamming from the new members is a must.

After a merit reform was done , you have to earn a certain amount of merits for every new forum rank . Merit can be received from other users , if they decide to highlight your post as a really helpful . So , in order to rank up , you must work hard to make a hi quality posts , which will be merited . Good luck with it , bro  Wink

There is a new rules now in the forum, I guess all of us here knows about it, isn't? And the major hindrances for everyone here was the Merit system, unlike before they are all depend only in the activity post but now our rank up will be base on activity post and merits requirements.

as per the new rules, it looks like it is really hard to change ranks

there is a table below, where i tried to summarise the requirements. theese are round figures, ther can be small mistakes

one requreiemtn is activity and the other one is merit ( it is more difficult to increase merit number )

No it is not depends on the number of post, it depends on the number of merit. Now it is harder for us to move from jr.member to member. But goodluck man

You are partially right, but get it right that both post count and merit now work side by side, you must have the allotted post count and merit before you move from any rank to another.

Yes is still the same as the previous ranking system. Just added merit to avoid Shitposter. So much more difficult now to rank up because it is based on the quality of your post.

better for you to read all about topic in meta because you need to know how to earn merit for your rank up and there's a lot of topics about merit there
is it number of posts you contribute
example of rank are if you already jr.member you need to get 10 merit by others to rank up in member rank and 70 activity after that 100 merit are needed and 120 activity to become full member rank
or how long you've joined the forum?
even your online everyday your rank will need merit to rank so if can't get one your rank will stock to jr.member

Bitcoin talk has turn to what no one ever expected and am shot of words because I don't really know how the new rules of rank upgrading works before from 30 Activities you become a Jr. Member and 60 Activities you become a Member and so on but now I have 98 Activities still in Jr. Member sorry to say bitcoin talk is now more valuable than gold except those who don't know the value and I believe all cryptocurrency community knows the value of bitcoin talk rank. And this will also increase the respect of all the high ranking.

I think that the formula for calculating the number of ranks needs to be improved, I propose to introduce into the calculation formula an additional variable "time spent on the forum" and the number of advantages for moving to the next level is lower, I would also increase the rank for creating a topic

You will need to have the required number of activities and merits for you to rank up here in bitcointalk,it was recently changed due to the forum spammers because a lot of people are posting shitposts and low quality posts that is why the owner of this forum should have to do something about it and the merit system was created to fight the spams because most of the people are joining signature campaigns even if they cant speak or write a decent english

Ranking on Bitcointalk use to be automatic. You contribute quality post and the forum promote you base on your number of your post and activities. Then came a lots of newbie who only want to spam the forum to get what they want that was the point where merit system came in to safe the forum from spam and scam.

This answer is enough to answer your question. Now be careful in making post, make sure you make it with your knowledge of cryptocurrency, and try to make a quality post it will make you a little faster to up your rank, because the merit system will make you more excited in making post.

It is very hard to up a rank now. You can make a good post and get only 1-2 merits) But I think the quality of posts is increased.

before, every 2 weeks, your activity will update by adding 14. and if you reach the activity needed, you will rank up. But now, from newbie to jr.member you need to have 30 activity to rank up, afterwards to rank up member from jr.member, their are two factors needed. You need to reach the activity requirements and merits too. Activity is not that hard to have, but the merits one make it hard.

This forum had been a lot of changes since it was published in public last 2013 and they indeed made some adjustments on how members will push their ranks into higher level.
The Merit system is until now a debate if it's effective or not, most of new members are indeed affected especially English isn't the native language of the most members in this forum.
I just fount it a good purpose to push rank when they deserve. I mean, meaningful replies, comments and posts will do have a good chances to step up UT otherwise most members will be stuck in their current rank since early January after the birth of Merit system.
Anyway, you could find some answer to this thread when you bump on Meta Section in this forum.
Read them and learn from them and don't bother to act non sense activities so that you'll not being awarded a red ribbon on your profile like me.
Good luck.

When I registrated it was only need activity for changing ranks (28 posts every 2 weeks). Now you need also merits from other participants. They can give it to you if you make useful posts.
It`s was 14 activity maximum every 2 weeks, if you are active and that means 2 comments minimum every day, 5 comments every day for 6 days. People were selling some profiles with a lot of comments, you could buy and wait certain time to pass and you would become higher rank, now that can`t happen.
Merit system changed all, now people have trouble to get to higher ranks. I don`t think that merit is the perfect system, but it is what it is. Now people advance to next rank slower and if you want to advance to next rank you really need to make huge effort and to be unique in some way, only like that you can draw some attention and get some merit.

Truly the number of the posts you made determine your rank but recently, the rule has been changed from the way it is before, now it based on the new implementation which is merit system, I.e the number of merits you have and you can get "merit" by making a very high quality post.

To rank in this forum nowadays is very hard. This is because of the implementation of the merit system and we cannot do anything about it. To rank up you need to consider two factors: activity and merit. Both of which are hard to earn because when you talk about activity, it is time based and it depends in the time duration since you created your BCT account. Merit on the other hand, requires quality posting which this forum truly lacks and remember that your posts is what makes this forum. Keep in mind that you will not rank up even though you have reached the required number of activities because you also need to reach the number of acquired merit. That is all and goodluck in ranking up!

Need activity and merit to upgrade Bitcointalk rank,
Here is details,



Rank                  Required activity            Required merit
Brand new                    0                            0
Newbie                         1                            0

Hero Member              480                           500

Now, this forum maintain it. Suppose you have 30 activity of your forum id, then no need merit to upgrade rank.
But if you gained 60 activity, then need 10 merit for getting rank higher.

ranking on the account bitcointalk to ride is determined by how much of our activity and there are already minimum requirement if you want can take rank, besides merit also very influential in the rise in rank on this account.

Without having enough merits points those activity are useless after all. Merits will the primary reason for an account to rank up. There will some a time when forum users will have so much activity and will still be on the same rank as they were when the merit system was introduce.

Before it is dependent on the number of activity and how long the account is alive in this forum. There was activity brackets to reach and each week you activity counter will go up 14 each other week depending on the number of post you have. Now, this forum made a new format to increase your ranking by earning merits hand to hand with your number of posts and activity. It's harder now since other people need to give you merits. These people could only give you merits if they have sMerits.

Previously, a certain duration of activity (2 weeks) and the number of entrees (30) were enough to rise in rank of Bitcointalk, which is now one of the key elements of the increase in the number of merits in the new arising merit system. You can accordingly examine the rank system.

its about how long your online in th forum,together with the post you made so the activity will increase,then after all of that the most important is the merit in which will be given to you buy those users that seeing your post as quality,valuable and encouraging to be in every topic..with all of this you will rank up upto the highest if you can achieve
nice advice about the criteria OP is asking.actually this new rules regarding ranking up is the best action theymos has made..now rank will be treasured as its harder to reach.not like the old settings when farmers is just a post away to rank

I would say its impossible to rank up with the new merit system unless you post something really extraordinary, like a guide on how to get free bitcoin or something. People who already ranked up before this of course likes the new merit system since its less people in signature campaings with high ranks which allows them earn more money. So I feel sorry for new members who didn't rank up to at least to full member before all this merit system took place.
I agree with all what you've just wrote. On the paper the idea wasn't bad, but it's not very practical, especially because it's kinda unnatural give merits for a post in this forum...

In order to rank up in bitcoin, the user should be active in doing their tasks in the activity they involve. They should have a potential to share informations about cryptocurrency. The merit should increase in order to level up the position. In order to increase, the user should be consistent in doing a constructive and brief posts regularly . It helps to increase the activities that will definitely help to rank up the position up to full member to get a higher profit.

I agree! To be able to increase the level or rank, it takes firm intention and consistent attitude in giving the best post. If we are slow, then we will be far behind by new people. Because life is difficult and must pass the competition.

How does one gain merit?

You need another forum member to give Merit to one of your posts.
For each Merit you get, you also get 0.5 sMerit, which is Merit that you can give to other people.
So for example if someone gives you 4 Merit, you also get 2 sMerit to hand out. When you give the 2 sMerit to someone, they gain 2 Merit and also get 1 sMerit to share.

All members above a certain rank got a small amount of sMerit to share to start with when the system was introduced, but new sMerit only comes into the system through a few people who are 'merit sources' - these people have been chosen because they are well-respected on the forum and have good post history. These merit sources are the only people who receive new sMerit to share out. All other sMerit is just recycled through the system as outlined above.

The merit system is good, but one problem is that because people only have a very small stash of sMerit with no guarantee of receving more, people have been very reluctant to hand it out.

Arguable if it's actually good.

I think it definitely encourages quality over quantity but to me, it just looks like the same as the 'trust' function on the forum.

How does one gain merit?

If a user finds your post informative or rather helps the community then they might give you merits for contributing to the forum. Of course people have different category for giving merits like if they find you amusing or funny. Merits system is kinda broken since there is really no criteria in order to gain merits.

I agree that it is very difficult to earn merit points as it's not being replenished consistently as well.
I guess the bct admins put it in place as there were lots of abuses in the ranking system wherein user take advantage of signature campaigns.

I would say its impossible to rank up with the new merit system unless you post something really extraordinary, like a guide on how to get free bitcoin or something. People who already ranked up before this of course likes the new merit system since its less people in signature campaings with high ranks which allows them earn more money. So I feel sorry for new members who didn't rank up to at least to full member before all this merit system took place.

Rank is based on your quality of your post and the total number of your activity. But for now we have merit system its hard to rank up now from member to fullmember and other higher rank only staff moderator and other wellknown member this forum receives merits thats why newbies needs help to upgrade their rank.

It's all about the number of your posts(easy) and number of merits(very hard). No matter how long and how direct and informative you post if the merit guy don't want to i think thats enough you won't get even 1 merit. Those who done shit posts at the past enjoying the high rank now before the merit system executed.
I agree that this is a double edged sword. Many shit posters are lucky to have achieved high ranking positions in this forum since they posted like crazy before this change and ranked up quickly, but the merit system also helps in decreasing spam to a huge extent now since more and more members will focus on writing quality posts rather than spewing shit posts here and there which is why it is a double edged sword. In my opinion, this change is worth it since I can already see the quality of posts in this forum improving and the spam seems to be reducing.

Good explanation of OP question. It's always great to link the post to explained threads.

Also at OP I would like to tell you that your merit is not newbie, it is your rank
 Your current merit is 0 which means you have not received any merits from any curator. When you will start posting the quality posts then you will see curators getting attracted to you. All the best and keep the forum clean.

when this system has been changed, you are required to get merit to increase your rank, not just aktivity
so you have to work hard and make a good post to get merit. but I think it's very difficult. I myself still have not got it merit until now.

people dont give merit here, actually, even if you do good posts you wont be rewarded, so just be member and be active, over time your rank rises, we all dont know how long this forum will matter, sooner or later there will be more neutral cryptoforums, that are popular i personally dont believe in the continual success of the bitcoin sect.

to rank, you have to be diligent to post, and there are posts must be informative that can be useful for other users, from newbie to jr member may not need merit, but to ride from jr member to member you must have at least 10 merit,

to get merit, you have to post it on another user's treadh, and if it can be useful for that user, chances are you will get merit which can help you to raise the rank.

The old rule states that to rise the rank, the user must meet the requirements of the post in order to rise the rank
But the new rules have been issued with a merit system
One must have a certain amount of merit in order to rise in rank
Merit is only given by other users who feel helped by your post or maybe the thread you created is very useful
This is the latest way to improve the posting quality of all users of this forum

If you want to increase your rank you must share potential information or interesting news etc. Because It is depends on the merits and activity so try to improve your post quality automatically someone is appreciated. This is the only way to increase your rank but future some changes is possible in merit and rank system but you must explore your talent then only you will succeed in this forum.
