Ohh I see what you're talking about, I think I'm starting to understand what you're talking about now.. Also, I want to ask what are your opinions about the number of required merits to have past Member to rank? Isn't it too much of a gap to achieve? I think that the scalability should be the same with activity.
The merit requirements are proportional to the activity requirements.
Rank | Required activity | Required merit |
Brand new | 0 | 0 |
Newbie | 1 | 0 |
Jr Member | 30 | 0 |
Member | 60 | 10 |
Full Member | 120 | 100 |
Sr. Member | 240 | 250 |
Hero Member | 480 | 500 |
Legendary | Random in the range 775-1030 | 1000 |
The merit requirement for Sr. and above is slightly more than activity, but the requirement for Full Member is slightly below. The biggest adjustment to this is that the requirement for Member has been reduced from around 50 to 10. I think this was done so as not to be a disincentive to noobs.
