I have other questions about merit, if I meet the required activity for Hero Member which is 480 activity. Do I need to gain 250 merits by default or I really need to receive it from someone who likes to give me merits by doing quality posts?
What if I do not get any merits until I got 480 activity so this will conclude that I will be stuck in my rank as senior member?
You also need to get another 250 merits from someone or from the merit sources if you want to rank up to hero member otherwise you will be stay at the current rank if you not able to get that 250 merits.And it is going to be very hard to get that atleast you need another 6 months even if you are quality poster.
