Rank facts only for those who are here for what you have mentioned "campaigns". For the users who are here for learning something, rank is nothing but a name, IMO. Anyway, having a Legendary rank is, of course, honorary. I wish if I would be a Legendary here.
FYI, you have no idea what the thread is about, in fact. Legendary ranking lies between 775-1030 activities. Someone may get it at 775 activities and some may need 1030 activities. So, Hero member with 1024 activities is really kind of unlucky.

Actually these people are not unlucky they are in fact so lucky to be an early member of Bitcointalk and got that rank, compare to us latecomers who are having a hard time getting merit, well I'm not into merit since I'm ok with my rank and being able to get a few stakes from my campaigns.

Hey dude, we are talking about those persons who have 1000 merits and closer activities but still didn't hit the legendary membership. I mention you just because you have earned enough merits for bwing a legendary while you are lacking of activities. And I know you started from 0. LoyceV and You have earned enough merits for being Legendary.

Isn't there another dude named Ddmrddmr?

I think we’re confusing some things here: @LordPiccolo has the merit by means of the initial airdrop, but has not earned any merits since. The initial airdrop in his case was of 1000 despite being a hero (theymos made some exceptions and awarded some heroes 1000 merits instead of 500). What his account lacked was activity, or at least the kick-in activity threshold for his case.

My case is completely different. I had 0 initial airdrop (was not a member or above at the time), and the 1k++ merits qualify for Legendary, but activity is way off, so I shall need around a year and a half to formally become one, give or take ...

We have a new "winner" since the last one has become a legend.

S/he didn't hit legendary because he has not posted minimum required post for increasing activity. He will be Legendary if he post one time now. Last post was from April although he is active now.

If that's not the case, how do you explain getting a 620 Activity in 200 days?

I guess my previous post wasn't clear. I'll give you an example:
If I delete all my posts, I have no potential Activity left. However, if I don't delete the first post made in each month, I have 14 potential Activity per month. That means I have 1 post in 44 Activity periods, which means I can earn 44 * 14 = 616 Activity if I make enough posts today.

Yes, I admit, I was wrong - this is exactly the case!

See Legendary one day? for a long list of lucky and unlucky users.

Most users have more Posts than Activity. A-Bolt's Activity is only limited by his Post count, which means all he has to do to become Legendary is create a few more posts.

Well said. And it is obvious he is not a very active member because he created the account in 2011. Most of his contemporaries who were more active than he is has become Legendary.

It is not late for him though.

I think it's much easier: rule 14 activity for 14 days only works to get a new activity, not to restore the old activity. If it worked differently, he wouldn't be able to get 620 activity in 200 days.

I'm fairly sure that's not the case here. If you were right, then there would need to be data stored for activity periods in which a user has posted for each account rather than a check for posts in a given time-frame.

If I were to delete my first 200 posts, I would see a decrease in activity. This is because I have to have at least one post in any given activity period to qualify for the potential activity.

If that's not the case, how do you explain getting a 620 Activity in 200 days?

P.S. I have another theory that might be true. The activites are restored to the minimum value corresponding to the lost rank.

Looking over some BD snapshots, his activity has risen every week in numbers equivalent (nearly exactly), to the number of posts made during that week, going up for example 52 activity points in a week after posting the same amount of posts (BD 20180615):

Code:

BD 20180720               677               677               116               26               26

This is just a partial history, but shows that activity can indeed be recovered quickly after deletion.

Does not have enough merit to rank up.

I suppose not having the merit to rank up is unlucky but the "luck" really relates to the activity count.

As I read the title I thought there's some newbies that call themselves unlucky for not ranking up since merit broke their life. Grin

Those users above aren't unlucky and all they need to do is to post nor wait for the activity to update.
So expect these users to rank up after 12 days from now.

I don't get why you think he is unlucky. Obviously the amount of merit needed for Legendary is there all he needs to do is to create 6 more posts in order to gain the remaining 6 activity in order to become a Legendary member assuming that he will be legendary when his activity hits 1030, which is the guaranteed number for him in becoming a Legendary member. I don't call that unlucky at all as he only needs to post more compared to people who is in need of merits in order to rank up which is a much harder thing to earn nowadays.

Still he is not legendary, 1024 activities. Highest with hero member.

I had to wait until close to that activity until I turned Legendary. I forget the circumstance exactly, but it was really, really close to when the merit system was put in place. People who were about to turn legendary and then got hit with a new merit requirement were/are the really unlucky ones.

A-Bolt has been here since 2011, so if rank was important to him he could have achieved Legendary a long time ago. Obviously he couldn't care less about ranking up.

At one point I wanted to get my merit, activity and posts all having the same count. I managed to do it with one of my alts, but I need an extra 4,000 merits to do it with this account.

He's become a legend.

If I were him, I'd try to get my activity to exactly 1029 for the next round, and hope to still be a Hero member Cool

He is not unlucky. Unlucky were the hero members that needed few activity to get legendary and we're only dropped 500 merits.

I don't think it was unfair, because i believe that 500 merit is not impossible to get if someone wants to become a legendary.

In addition to post rank and activity, a user needs to have spent a certain amount of time on the forum.
I believe it is upwards from two years for a legendary member.
So once that user has been on the forum long enough, he would be promoted.
if it's not done automatically then he/she just needs to make one post more

The reason why this guy is stuck at 1021 Activity points is because that is how many posts he made until now. Your account gets 14 activity points every 2 weeks, but they will only get added to your activity count if you make 14 posts in that period (or even later, they remain as long as you are active). If you make 7 posts in 2 weeks, you will only get 7 activity points for that.

Example:

A user creates an account, and starts using it immediately. We already know that an account is assigned 14 activity points after every 2 weeks. So, the guy makes only 10 posts in 2 weeks. He gets 10 activity points for that period. After 2 more weeks, his account is assigned with another 14 activity points, but he made only 10 posts again in that period, so he gets only 10 activity points again. At the end, his account was assigned 28 activity points in 4 weeks, but since he posted only 20 times in that period, his account would only have 20 activity points. The remaining activity points are added as soon as he posts again.

That is how activity system works. The guy you mentioned must have had enough potential activity points to be a Legendary and maybe that is why he got 1000 Merits in the initial Merit Airdrop, but since he doesn't have enough posts to reach Legendary rank, he is still a Hero member. He will become a Legendary as soon as he reaches 1030 posts which would complete his activity points to become a Legendary member.

Hope that answers the question.

Either you didn't get my point or I didn't get you. Sorry if I missed what you said.
BTW, you can check the list provided by LoyceV, perhaps you get an idea what I meant.

Thank you for the list. He is 3rd on this list and OP needs to update.

Most users have more Posts than Activity. A-Bolt's Activity is only limited by his Post count, which means all he has to do to become Legendary is create a few more posts.

Required activity for Legendary Member- 775-1030
Required Merit- 1000

He has the required merit no doubt. He already have 1021 activity out of the maximum required 1030. I do not see anything to do with luck yet. He still needs 9 more activity to get the rank.
