Added a Hindi Sticky.
Please do suggest any other regional languages that may help us connect better.

What about URDU?

Kindly,

Feel free to use the Regional Languages section for now.
If there is enough traction, we can get it added.

Yes that is true. So a combination of activity value and post count on their profile is a better combination of info to judge than just post count.

You are forgetting trust system. You can't Judge/trust peoples with just postcount and activity.


The only thing missing from the statement above is 'Use Escrow'. Trust ratings, bans, abuses etc count for crap once the con has happened.

So I'm brand new to this forum, actually this is my first post to an internet forum period.
I can not reply to a lot of the the group buys i want to and it is because of this member ranking system?
I understand that there is a community here and this is a good way to build trust and regulate spammers, but..

theymos has been discussing removing the newbie restrictions, but I have not seen that happen as yet.

For now, this is the best regulated model that we can afford. Maybe in the next few updates, we should see the restrictions dropped.

I have some conerns about this new activity value policy and i just doubt to what extent these formulas can do justice.
1. It is not possible for any one to have a activity value much more than number of days elapsed since registration no matter how much really you are active
2. If two people are competing for a higher activity value and say the first guy has 50 activy and second one has 200 activity. It is impossible for the first guy to over take second guy until the second guy skips posting for many number of two-week periods.

OR am i missing something?

There is also "post count", which is different from activity and can be viewed on clicking the member's name.

High recent posts were being misused to increase the ranking. That is why there is a change and the registration date has taken precedence.

From what I have seen, by being active and helping/ trading with people, your reputation gets far better than an activity.

But no, you are not missing anything.

Hope it stops people from Spamming to Hero stat.
The formula creates no incentive for posting more than once a day (avg over two weeks), but even two posts per day would incentivize people to spam two posts per day in order to inflate their score. Activity seems to be resistant to manipulation, but not representative of all of a person's contributions. Only a legit poster would still keep posting above 1 post per day.

Even if he has a LOT to say ?

This moves the onus of trust a bit away from the forum. As we know for a fact, the Hero member badge has been abused quite a bit due to spamming.
Trust is not really to be based on a rank or a number but more on the reputation of a person. The new activity ratings show a more robust performance indicator of people in the long run. Anyone who stays around for that long, would have already built up a reputation and would not need a 'score' to justify their trustworthiness.

I do hope that made sense.
