Re: Forum ranks/positions/badges (What do those shiny coins under my name mean?)

Okay so I have a question to ask then I have a 98 rating but I have over 1000 posts, so when will my activity or whatever increase and the 98 go higher and earn myself more coins? I am just wondering because I have seen people with like 100 posts who have the same rating as me and was wondering why that is when I have so many more posts and activity I'm guessing.  Do I have to log out and log back in or what exactly incorporates me earning more coins?

The next activity period, which is Tuesday.

6 fortnightly periods. You get 14 points every two weeks so 6 x 14 = 84 activity points.
Okay now I kind of get it, your activity level will only increase with the amount of time you are logged into BCT right? so you automatically go up ranks as long as you post even 1 post every two weeks? So it has nothing at all to do with the amount of posts that you post for why you would get a higher ranking then? I thought that it was the amount of posts that you post go towards your activity level going up but I guess it's just the amount of 2 weeks that you are logged into BCT that determines that right?

It has to do with both the number of posts you have and the activity period you posted in. You could make one post in each two periods and you would only have 2 activity total, but you can collect the rest (24) later at any point by making the other 26 posts or more. If you made 50 posts in each period you would have 28 activity and 100 posts. The following period you would only need to make one post and you would get the full 14 points immediately (42) because you have more posts than activity.

Know 'how many months/years it will take' (Thanks to lontong for his post):

Code:
1 X 14 = 14...


I originally created that table (up to Hero but he must've expanded on it).
