Thank you, Welsh. I still search to find it.
You are one of the first users commented about the second rank system (with activity requirements).

Hmm, this system has it's pros and cons. But, we shall see how it works.

I'm unsure what my concerns were, but it was probably bias to the fact that I think I was a member or full member at that point, and got demoted with the activity implementation, and the fact by default I'm always cautious of limiting users, but I think I was proven wrong with my doubts, and the activity ranking system was an improvement over the old system. The merit system was definitely a large step up in increasing forum quality, and again not without its downfalls, but I think its been largely successful in what it was implemented for.

Thank you for giving me this one, but I do think that such things would be announced by admins, not in a normal thread like this.

Tysat would have been a moderator around that time if I remember correctly, however whether admins officially announced it I'm not sure. It was probably using the default SMF values, unless I'm mistaken. I definitely remember Hero Member being 500, but I'm not so sure about the others. Despite the lack of admin response on that thread, it seems everyone agreed those were the values though.
